I would agree on the points made by the other reviewers (I enjoyed your review Lyn!) who were on this cruise. Generally we were pleased with NCL as we had booked this cruise on a GTY, so our upfront spend was substantially less then other cruises. We did not know what cabin category we would receive, so were very happy to find we had been allocated a balcony room.

We found the staff to be polite and professional, the food very good, and the ports of call were nice. Housekeeping was more basic than we have experienced with other cruises, but they did seem rather busy.
