Not the cruise type. It would be better to fly to locations and save the time and money. Service was great but overall, trip was expensive. Way to much food to eat LOL

Getting someone to answer the phone was painful. 10-20 minute wait usually before someone answered.

5 out of 5

There should be more than just one coffee shop onboard.
