Cabin / Stateroom

This was the best inside cabin we have ever had . It was more of a square instead of a typical rectangle. This particular design seemed to make it more spacious. We have done balcony, ocean view, obstructed ocean view and inside cabins.

Ship tip

Since this is a mega ship I recommend booking entertainment asap. Also booking the excursions of your choice as early as possible.

We spent four days total after the cruise. Be careful of pickpockets. I caught a guy on the metro unzipping my wife's purse. Five or ten seconds more and she would have lost her iphone, money and her credit card.

We were redirected to a town about an hour from Stockholm.It was a small fishing village. Nice but disappointing when we were expecting Stockholm.

Sorry to hear! Yes, pls watch your stuff at all times in Russia. Lots of pick pocketing during summer months. Specially near cruise ships and Nevsky prospect (Local Expat)
