Review summary

If it were not for excellent excursions and 2 good shows I would’ve considered this a 3000 Dollar rip-off. We paid far too much money to have been fed Golden Corral food !!!

Embarkation

2 out of 5
We were “herded” around like cattle. Stand and wait for nearly 2 hours. Poor planning on Norwegian ‘s part.

Food and Dining

Very disappointed in the food. It was like eating at Golden Corral (not a compliment). Breakfast was OK but lunch and dinner were terrible for a cruise. The only good meals we got were at Cagney’s Steakhouse (speciality restaurant).
