Review summary

This four day cruise was a great getaway. The Tulip Festival is a must see. The hidden gem of Bruges was a favorite of mine.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We stayed on the ship from the previous cruise so it was a non event!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
MDR experience was great as we had the same waitstaff for our entire time onboard. I give it 4 stars because the food choices changed to more British fare which, as an American, I had to adjust to a bit. Food was still good, just not what I am used to. Always good to try new things.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
This was a shorter cruise so activities were fast and furious. This rating is really reflecting our entire 32 nights on the ship. The Cruise Staff were great! I especially enjoyed the ACD Sarah and her enthusiasm.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Disappointed that the Spotlight Bar had to be cancelled because a cast member got hurt.

Children's Programs

No Children

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Could not have been better. Even when the bars were crowded, the staff was always helpful.

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Just what we needed and nothing more. Steward was great and kept everything spic and span.

Ports of call

Southampton (London), England

4 out of 5
Just a turn around for us really. We did walk to the mall, which was not too far

Rotterdam, Netherlands

5 out of 5
We did an excursion to the Tulip Festival. A great excursion. The only problem with this port was the timing. Someone forgot to look up other activities and the Rotterdam Marathon was running that day!

Zeebrugge (Bruges), Belgium

5 out of 5
No excursion but walked around the city. This is one of my favorite places. The city is beautiful and very walkable. We did the touristy canal boat trip, but it was a lot of fun.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
No problems.
