Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We rarely do speciality dining. Everything you could ever want is included. The buffet area on the Epic is one of the most stress free ones we've come across. The Noodle Bar is exceptional.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

The outside 80s disco with all the videos on screen was a highlight. Brilliant. The Cavern Club, with the Epic Beatles is outstanding.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Epic Beatle and Priscilla Queen of the Desert. Excellent.

Ship Quality

Before boarding, I thought that the ship looked enclosed, with few windows. Not true. Wonderfully designed.
