Review summary

I had a Solo Studio for this cruise. The Studio Lounge was great...and having a Bartender from 5-7 each night is nice. The Solos on this cruise were mostly European/UK...a different vibe. The Solo Coordinator scheduled several Solo dinners, but usually at 5:30...too early for me. A good cruise overall...weather was wonderful. Great time to cruise in the Med.

NCL's Barcelona cruise terminal is easy to navigate, and both of my experiences there were quick and easy..

I took the NCL Pisa and Wine Tasting excursion. The town of Pisa was fine, the wine tasting was disappointing. Too crowded, too commercial, and little wine tasting....lunch for 200+ people with different wine bottles just set out on the tables...
