Review summary

This was our first cruise and I could not be any happier. The RC staff is amazing. The food in the dinning room is excellent and the ship is clean and beautiful. Getting on and off the ship is busy and sometimes complicated by the sheer number of people all doing the same thing at the same time. Once on the ship everything is amazing. The bed was very comfortable and we loved our balcony. It made all the difference in our trip. The activities on the ship were varied and well orchestrated. I would recommend this cruise line to everyone.

Parking was a mess because of Mardi Gras. The workers were not pleasant but this is not RC's fault. Everyone at the terminal was very helpful.

All the excursions were waitingl for us. The dock was lovely and there was lots of room for the number of people exiting the ship.

It was a long walk from the ship to shore. There were 5 other ships there that day and it was extremely crowded in the kiosks and shops along the dock.
