We were on the 8th floor (can't remember cabin #) but we could hear the music from Syd's Pour House. However, it always quit by 10pm.

Amsterdam, Netherlands

5 out of 5

Warnemunde (Berlin), Germany

5 out of 5

If I could give more stars I would. Definitely one of the highlights of the trip. We took a Viator excursion which was quite a bit cheaper than the one offered by NCL. We had an absolutely AMAZING guide! Berlin is NOT to be missed!!

Thumbs Up 0

Kiel, Germany

3 out of 5

We visited Neuengamme, a Nazi work camp. It was ok. I wouldn't recommend it.

Thumbs Up 0

Copenhagen, Denmark

5 out of 5
