Our first cruise and will retun to Norwegian Cruise Lines. The Epic is a beautiful ship with a well trained staff. We enjoyed every minute!! The shows were excellent. The food was delicious and the service in the restraurants was outstanding. We chose the freestyle dining meal plan and we were very happy. No lines to wait at cafes.

Ship tip
Go with someone who has been on previous cruises. This was our first and didnt know what to expect; but we had a great time.
I'll be on there the 9th as well. Cruises are certainly what you make of them. Much like life, they're not perfect or go exactly as planned. Roll with the punches and all will be good. Of course, the UBP helps.
We were on the Epic back in February and loved it so much, we are sailing on it again this Saturday. The food is outstanding, the bar service is phenomenal, and every staff member caters to your need. Love NCL!
May I ask were all your self guided tours excursions bought on ncl or just get off ship and we sites. We're going in May and trying to compare excursions . Ty
