Review summary

The tours for the 3 days prior to the cruise were very good.  We enjoyed some of the entertainment on board.  There wasn't enough for kids to do without paying extra.  The first day was a rainy day and kids couldn't swim so inquired about the kid's program and they considered it babysitting so you have to pay extra for that. We had a 10 year old with us. Didn't want babysitting, just fun entertainment since he couldn't swim!  Port stops were mostly in industrial sections. Had to rent cars or taxi if you didn't get an excursion or wanted to explore a little on your own.  Very disappointing.  So unless you took excursions at every port, most stops had little to do without spending a lot of money.  The food was a little disappointing. We ate at the restaurant most evenings and it was just okay.  Nothing great.  The buffet was okay for breakfast with good variety.  The evening entertainment was good. We didn't get to see all of them, but what we saw was nice. Magician and comedian were both good and NCL singers/actors did a fine job.  

if you want a good view of Hawaii, definitely need to take excursions on every stop which can add up to a lot of extra money.
