Review summary

This was the first Norwegian Cruise that I have been on. In the past, I have cruised with Carnival Cruise Lines 4 times but my family of five decided to try something new for a change. For three older children and two parents, this cruise was definitely an adventure with the perks of freestyling. If you are one who does not enjoy schedules and wants to 'cruise at your own pace', then the freestyle cruising is for you! The amenities where great with the adult only zone, ultimate beverage package and a lot of complimentary dining options to choose from. If you are up for a party, there are plenty of nightlife options including Latin infused dance parties, the casino, a GLOW party, decade themed dances, as well as comedians, shows and games to participate or watch. The cruise itself was very clean and the rooms were quiet and had a good layout. I recommend sailing the Norwegian Escape and plan to research cruising with NCL again.

Not enough options-- tend to all happen simultaneously rather than be spread out over the course of the day.
