Review summary

Was disappointed in this cruise. too many days at sea, and port of calls were somewhat "weak" for sightseeing. Peddlers were annoying and in your face 3 & 4 at a time and would follow you down blocks to try to get you to buy something. Would not recommend this 17 day Panama Canal Cruise.

Glad you had a good cruise. Thanks for the review. We prefer sea days to port days. Sounds like a perfect cruise for us.
