Review summary

Great cruise from Scandinavia to Scotland. I wish we could have stayed another week. Excellent staff. Excellent food. Just a good time. Oh and the drink package was worth it. We had it all!

Embarkation

5 out of 5

One reason it was so smooth is because we had club orange and got priority boarding.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The food was exceptionally good, however, the food on the Lido deck left a lot to be desired. The food was undercooked and felt institutionalized. We tried all the specialty restaurants and we also had club orange dining which they were all outstanding. Just a little work on Lido deck and it would have been five stars.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our cabin was in the aft and had been upgraded to that because of club orange. Great location. Minimum noise. Great size room.

Ship tip

So if you're not in a suite and you want to up your experience, I truly believe club orange was worth it. The upgraded our room the category that we were in, The food in the club orange dining area was outstanding and so was the service. Priority embarkment, dedicated customer service on board. It's worth the extra money!
