Review summary

I booked this cruise to experience the midnight sun and to go to Longyearbyen ( the farthest north I could cruise). The other ports were not important to me (although my other reason in booking this cruise was to go to Greenland, which was cancelled. That was extremely disappointing.)

Very little to do if you don’t care for games. Needs informative talks about general interest subjects(not shopping).

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Maica Fabula was sensational. Her cheeriness every morning at the garden cafe would always start the day off right. All of the staff were very polite and professional.

Cabin / Stateroom

We love the balcony club suites. The larger bathroom is very important to us. Also on this cruise the mid room curtain was perfect for the darkness we like even though we were under the midnight sun.

Sad when you book a cruise for a special destination and then that stop is cancelled!
