Review summary

We’re was the entertainment very disappointed. I can not say this enough. We spent most of our cruise looking for something to do. Most people we talked to felt the same. The only time we saw the cruise director was at the shows at night. He did a very slack job.

This was the worst. No entertainment during the day. I have been on a few cruises and this by far was lacking. Not good at all.

Entertainment

1 out of 5

We had trouble getting a seat for the shows I think this is because everyone was so bored this was the only thing to do that was entertaining. The shows were good but I have seen better on other cruises.

I agree with JT1962! I am not looking to be entertained all the time, I like to workout, relax on deck, and catch a show or entertainment in the evening. Try RCCL if you are looking for more action. I hope you find the cruise line that works for you.

Princess is not known for their entertainment and onboard activities. We enjoy just relaxing, reading a good book, doing a crossword puzzle or taking a nap. If you need constant entertainment, a water park or amusement park on board, try Carnival, NCL or Royal Caribbean.
