We chose this cruise because we have been looking for these particular port of calls. Royal Caribbean provided the port of calls we were looking for. Even though the ship (Empress of the Seas) is one of the smallest in the Royal Caribbean's fleet, the service, cruise ship appearance and cleanliness, entertainment, dining experience and overall enjoyment factor was on point and exceeded our expectations! The food was amazing and they were not stingy with the drinks! Each day, the crew made us feel like our enjoyment was their personal responsibility. I would definitely travel with Royal Caribbean again as well as on the Empress of the Seas. It was great and we enjoyed every moment!

Also, Vincent - a member of the activities team in the athletic area, was in charge of the climbing wall. He was awesome and helped me climb up the entire wall! That was one moment I will not forget!.

Thank you Royal Caribbean and the Empress of the Seas cruise team for a fabulous experience!
