Review summary

This is one of the best cruises I've been on. I loved all the different countries we visited and the excursions were great.

We had a little trouble with the toilet in our state room but they gave us $100 credit for the inconvenience.

Holland America does it right. When I had any problems, the correct it immediately. I don't cruise on any other line unless I need to and I have been on many.
