Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Food and food service were excellent and abundant! So much so that I gained 6 pounds--shame on me.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Shows, chess, art, hot tub, whale watching, glacier viewing.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Shows were good for the most part...some much better than others. One set of musicians clearly superior to the rest. Magician was sub standard, comedian was mediocre, dancers super, acrobats fantastic.

The grand children loved it all!

Ship tip

Negatives: Apps clunky... shipmate worthless, econcierge worthless. Internet was unsatisfactory, slow, and inadequate. Internet service this bad should be totally complimentary. No good reason to have to pay extra for it.
