Review summary

We were very disappointed with this cruise. If we had no past experience with cruising it wouldn't have been quite so bad but with many cruises under our belts, we just wanted to get to the next port and see the sights.

Ports of call

Fanning Island, Kiribati

5 out of 5
Absolutely beautiful. It was hot and humid but we didn't even care. The people came out and sang songs for us ALL DAY. We walked through the village, visited the children's school built by NCL and took a million pictures. We swam and didn't even mind that the generators were out and we didn't get any food. We hadn't had such great food experiences anyway. There was just enough shade to sit along the beach and read - this place was one of the best we have visited so far in our travels.

Lahaina, Maui

We rented a jeep and traveled to Hana. What an experience. The road was so curvy but the scenery was well worth the 3 hr trip to go 35 miles. We also snorkeled the Molokini Crater and loved that too.

Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

Loved the volcanos - How could you visit an active volcano and not be wowed!

Nawiliwili, Kauai

3 out of 5
It was raining as it usually is so the hike we had planned was canceled. We did rent a car and drive north to Hanalei and shopped there. Next time, the canyon.

Hilo, Hawaii

Had a great time - we took the excursion to the sanctuary and the coffee plantation and spent way too much money buying wonderful Kona coffee to take home.
