This was our first cruise, and probably our last. We were ready to get home because we were basically bored.

nothing spectacular but ate well

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

pool was super crowded so we didn't do that much. Strong winds one day which closed most of the outdoor activities. Trivia was our highlight.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas Did not visit port

ended up traveling here but couldn't stop due to high surf. traveled another 5 hours to Freeport, which was HORRIBLE. Spent 4 hours here, 2 of which were in the dark.

I agree with you.. If you were not drinking on that cruise you were not having a good time.. Trivia was a joke.. No prizes.. Spent couple hours sleeping just to pass the time along..

Disappointed

Was relaxing and the entertainment was just ok. Probably my last NCL

Will never cruise with Norwegian again, Carnival all the way.
