Review summary

The ship is small and old. People are very nice. Not much to do. Not for people who want to party, play group games and stay up late. I am going back to Carnival.

Embarkation

Excellent

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Drinks were weak. Dinner was good. They ran out of lobster and cheesecake. Buffet was almost the same with hot dogs and hamburger. Buffets closes at 8:30, too early. Adult area has food until 11:30. Ice cream was good. Overall food good.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

Not many shows. Shows started while we were having dinner at 7:45 pm. Not many activities. Never met the cruise director. Not many group activities. This is a cruise for people over 60 who want to relax, drink, go to the casino. Not much dancing or fun group games.

Entertainment

show was on during dinner time.

Children's Programs

4 out of 5

The ship stayed the same size and age as when you booked it. Do a bit more research.

I have sailed on the Vision, and enjoyed it very much. It is my style, but each to their own.

Sorry this ship didn’t have the family entertainment you wanted. At least now you know and can plan on a different cruise lines. Thank you for your review.
