Review summary

Excursion is the way to go for this trip however the ship more than makes-up for any adventures at the ports. We were always anxious to get back on the ship and visit the casino or go to a trivia game- wonderful ship!

The performers were wonderful but skip the "headliner" productions. Their shows are just mash-ups without any story BUT the singers and dancers are amazing...just not what I expected.

Bigger Ocean View than I ever expected. I didn't think at Deck #3 I would be as comfortable as I was! On a ship that is smaller- like this one- this deck was absolutely preferable than the higher decks.

Ship tip

Lower deck is the way to go- this is a smaller ship so you should choose a lower deck.

We just visited the port and the restaurant was EXPENSIVE! I'd recommend doing an excursion here.

Just visited the port and while Tequila A-Go-Go was a great spot to visit, I'd also recommend doing an excursion with the cruse line at this port.

Thanks for the review but I don’t understand what makes a lower deck preferable on a smaller ship.
