Review summary

After two Alaskan cruises, we weren't sure we would be wowed by Norway. Couldn't have been more wrong! Norway is simply gorgeous in its own super special way. Loved the Jade; we had a mini-suite, and it was well worth the extra money. My husband and I enjoyed the extra space and the tub/shower in bath. There was some rough water in the North Atlantic, which I expected, but this ship felt very smooth and stable. Food was great all around, but especially in the specialty restaurants. Our cabin steward was wonderful; he just took very special care of us. Shore excursions were really good - something for everyone. Kayaking for my husband, stave churches and Edvard Grieg for me. We would recommend this cruise to anyone.

Cabin / Stateroom

On some ships, cabins are pretty uniform size and I don't think upgrades are worth it, but we were very pleased with the mini-suite.

I took a cruise to Norway and Iceland on the Disney Magic in 2015. Absolutely loved Norway and would definitely go back. In the 11 days we only had one day of rough seas and that was going from Iceland to Scotland.
