Enjoyed the Panama Canal experience extremely well. The tours were interesting, however a major negative was not revealed to us prior to booking each tour....and that was the long walk from the ship to the bus. I was able to cancel the balance of the tours after the second experience. We have advised Princess for those of us unable to walk long distances, this fact should be in the tour information.

Our cabin was very comfortable, except maybe the shower....very tight quarters! The entertainment on the ship was enjoyable. If you are bored, it is from your own choosing....lots of things to do and see aboard ship. We chose the "anytime dining" experience and met some very interesting people. The food was OK....not as great as on previous cruises with Princess. Our room steward was very helpful and very friendly. Was able to obtain anything we needed beyond the normal items.

No we did not travel with children, nor did anyone else (that we know of) on this cruise. The cruise was a round trip from San Pedro/Los Angeles.....so minimum flying necessary! Yay!

Very comfortable and clean. The shower was a little tight if you larger than average!! We chose the queen bed with a topper....very comfortable.

Port Reviews

Huatulco

The particular tour we took was OK....EXCEPT for the long walk from the ship to the bus. This should have been mentioned in the tour description.

Puerto Quetzal (Antigua)

Went to the local zoo/safari...interesting.
