Our travel agt. recommended this cruise as an upscale cruise which was all inclusive. Our cabin was very spacius with plenty of storage. We had a wonderful balcony where we spent a great deal of time. The ship was new andvery comfortable. The food was ordinary with limited selection. Portions were adequate but were often over cooked. Our cabin steward, Hari, was wonderful and very helpful and responsive. Our butler, Vania, was one of the rudest cruise employee I have ever encountered in all of my cruising. She was surly and found many excuses to not do her job. That is assuming you couuld reach her by phone. Shore excursions were limited to two per stop. Most of the shore excursions were bus tours. The cruise wass very regimented. The cruisse director was knowledgeable. There was no medical care on board and most of the passengers were sick along with the captain. Scenic depended upon local medical people who often did not work on weekends.

This cruise was nice but definitely not work the expense.
