Review summary

Overall the cruise was good. The scenery cruising through the Chillean fjords was amazing. Rounding the horn was a once in a lifetime adventure. The bar staff and most dining rooms servers were well trained and very friendly. Only real complaint is the over crowded Buffett lines, saving of deck chairs and the rudeness of fellow traveler. Would I cruise with Norwegian again... Yes but find a ship that's not sold out , that has a better space ratio.

Even though you had an arrival time the wait was still very ling

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Dinners at the dinner room and specialty restaurants was great. You could never get to the buffet for breakfast or lunch because of the crowds

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Very limited sea day activities. Dollar bill folding just isn't my thing. They need to add lectures, port explanation, something a little more stimulating than stupid games.

Entertainment

2 out of 5

The Band on the run production show was great. Alot of folks loved the magician and illusionists.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

In general service was very good. A few grumpy faces but I guess that's to be expected
