Review summary
I was stunned to see a bill at the door last day of almost $1500 for all the assorted charges - they charged about $15 a day per person for the room to be cleaned... in the Crows Nest coffee, tea, etc, was not free as it was around the ship... felt nickeled and dimed all throughout. I could have taken my daughter to Europe for what this entire cruise cost us.Embarkation

Ports of call
Could not find a place for lunch - just shops trying to get you to come in and spend money
Lots of shops and places to spend your money I took one look at it and went back to the ship.
we got there so late in the evening and only had maybe 3 hours - did not leave the ship - the bus to get into town was $18-20 each way - I was in a party of 4 we all agreed that there would be nothing open of interest for the roughly $200 expense just to get to town. Stayed on board. We were looking forward to seeing the gardens and tea rooms but none were open at 6:30 pm.
