Food and Dining

Underwhelming menu in main dining rooms. No particular food item wowed me..hope we can continue to avoid self-serve buffet model moving forward!

Onboard Activities

This was a port intensive cruise so we had minimal time for onboard activities Enjoyed the ones we did experience.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Disembarkation began super early, around 6 am. Because we had flights booked with NCL, we had a later time and were able to relax over breakfast first.
