Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

They do push the specialty restaurants a fair bit, there are 4 main dining rooms, 2 are used for set dining times and 2 for my time dining. American Icon has a better feel for my time dining.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

All facilities first class plenty to do for all guests. Only downside no mini golf☹️

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Paul O’Shea piano player in Schooner bar was awesome, draws a big crowd and gets everyone involved, plays non stop from 9.30pm to very late. Well worth checking out
