Review summary

this is the perfect cruise for mature travelers! The Pacific Princess is a tidy & cozy ship with the ambiance of extensive wood paneling and old fashioned dekor. I personally appreciated being located on Deck 7 which meant that there were only two flights of easily managed stairs up to either the buffet or pool and down to the restaurant, theater, shops or casino.

I also enjoyed the opportunity to relax during the many days at sea, port time was limited to just 5 calls!

book an excursion and enjoy the sights in an air conditioned bus

what is there to say? turn on your cabin's tv and listen to the commentary in the air conditioned comfort of your cabin and use the balcony for snapshots
