Review summary

A very fast paced cruise with loads to do but be aware that the first sea day is a long way off and pace yourself. Cruise Director Matt O was fantastic and really made things fun and entertaining. Shows were all top notch.

We would never cruise on Princess without at least one night at Crown. Exceptional service and food....even compared to the usual outstanding Princess service. Food is 5 star.

Wonder if the Brit cruises are more active than the US Pacific cruises? Agree Lazyboy.

Sometimes the buffet can be better, if you get there when it opens.
