Review summary

We were not sure about cruising with Norwegian but loved the experience. Wished they would have had more shrimp, crab and other seafood. They had lots of fish but not enough other seafood.

Food and Dining

Their seafood selection was not as extensive as I had hoped but everything was very good. Excellent taste and presentation. Good selection except for the seafood .

I am not into bingo and gambling. Onboard games seemed kind of silly at times.
