Review summary

Great Itinerary and very good ship and staff. Wished for more entertainment in the World Stage.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Fantastic! Easy and well organized

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The Food was very good. The dinner at Canaletto was the best of the cruise. The only bad mark is that our Server abandoned us and we sat for over 20 minutes with empty plates, water and wine glasses.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The Music venues were good. There was very little shows scheduled in the World Stage. So it lacked night time entertainment.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The musicians were really good in the Rolling Stone and BB King stages. The Bilboard pianist was OK, but the older crowd seemed to enjoy him.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Except for the dinner at Cenaletto's, the service and staff were excellent! Taught me how to make a Mai Tai the right way!!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was in great shape and everything worked.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room was fantastic. Our first balcony ever!! Had the sunrise on the outbound and the Sunset on the homeward legs!

Ship tip

Take a picture of the printed cruise schedule. Especially the hours of operations for services and food locations. We could not find that info in the Navigator App

Ports of call

NORDFJORDEID, NORWAY

5 out of 5
The sail in was breath taking! The port was small so everyone went straight to the Long Ship museum. So we waited till later to go through it.

Cruise Nordfjord

5 out of 5

Molde, Norway

4 out of 5
Did not get to see much of the port or town as we did a Troll Wall excursion. Was a long day out but the views were worth it.

Geiranger, Norway

4 out of 5

Cruise Geirangerfjord

5 out of 5
Beautiful port. Hiked up to the waterfall. Long and up hill. But worth it walking behind the falls.

Bergen, Norway

5 out of 5
It was very crowded as I think there were 2 other ships in port. But the fish market and shops were fun.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
We picked up our luggage and had to find our own way to the Transfer busses. Got on the last bus fortunetly. No signage anywhere.
