Review summary

Enjoyed our time on the Gem. Bar Harbor was not as expected and difficult for my husband with a walker. Food, entertain and overall service was very good.

Food & drinks were good. The specialty restaurants were very enjoyable. The buffets were plentiful and great choices everyday.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

We did not use and of the activities. But they did look fun.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Some of the game shows were good, but when some of the staff was explaining how to play, it was confusing because with some of the language differences it was hard to understand. However, the stage shows and musicians were very good.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Waiters were always there for you. Ship personnel were friendly and making sure everything was going well.

Bar Harbor doesn’t deserve one star just because you had a hard time with a walker. Research your destinations more thoroughly.
