Review summary

Overall the ports were great. I was uncomfortable the whole trip between too much ac on the ship and the cold, wet and windy ports. I had 3 layers on and still couldn’t get warm. There needed to be different entertainment besides trivia 5-6 times a day, more than 1 comedy show and cheaper or free bingo. The views were breathtaking and the excursions were great.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Main dining tried to be too fancy and didn’t pair things together well, under seasoned food or overcooked food. The buffet was mediocre at best.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Only 1 indoor pool but kid enjoyed it

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Not enough variety in entertainment. Bingo cost an arm and a leg. The better activities ran through pick up of kids from camp so you couldn’t attend.

Children's Programs

4 out of 5

Kid enjoyed it but to many long breaks. It made it difficult to attend any activities or shows because of camp closing times throughout the day.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 twin beds for a married couple and a kid. We pushed the beds together for my husband and I but it might have been more comfortable sleeping on the floor. But room always clean and stocked
