Review summary

This was a great cruise with excellent stops and shore excursions.  Most of the stops do need an excursion booked as the port cities don't offer a lot close to the ship, but all of the excursions we took were very well planned with great guides and excellent local hospitality.  They all included great meals, not standard box lunches.  The staff on board was very attentive and made sure we had a great time.

This is a nice suite however, be warned that the "hot tub" on the balcony is actually a bath tub. Also - bring your own hair dryer, the one provided is very small.
