Review summary

the crew was terrific on the ship, but i was disappointed with the quality of the entertainment, i remember sailing and looking forward to the nightly shows, they just did not have the same quality.

the menu in the dinning rooms now have prices for a "better" meal, it is a shame we will have to pay for food in the main dinning rooms for a "better" meal after spending what we do for the cruise.

We really enjoyed the Gem! There's something to do every day and we personally thought the food was awesome!
