Review summary
The itinerary was absolutely fabulous. The ship is just too big and there are no quiet places to read and relax. For a 26 day cruise and 4,000 passengers, 2 washers and 2 dryers per side at the very back of the ship is ridiculous. Spa treatments are extremely expensive and a sales pitch comes with it. Ship tours are also pricey so we, along with hundreds of others, opted for the Hop-On-Hop-Off option available at most of the ports. This ship is designed to be efficient and move people, not to relax and enjoy. My husband and I will take a smaller ship any time we cruise from now on.

Ship tip
The Regal and Royal ships are on our "do not sail" list. They are just too big and are designed to maximize people movement.
