Review summary

We loved the Ship (with the exception of cabin lighting). I would disregard all negative reviews & enjoy the cruise. The Ports made it the “Trip of a Lifetime”. I highly recommend this cruise to everyone sooner rather than later because of all the walking on tours. We still managed to come back & enjoy the hot tubs & dance, see shows, get photo shoots, shop, etc.

Ship tip

Bring a lighted makeup mirror because, as I read previously, lighting is very dim in inside cabins.

Try to arrive a day early to tour Sagrada Familia. We did & I wouldn’t have missed it for the world! Be sure to book your reservation ahead of time for a tour guide & to skip the lines.
