My wife and I had our first cruise on the Norwegian Gem so we wanted to try a larger ship. We really enjoy Norwegians Freestyle Cruising. The food was amazing. We choose to eat at the Garden Buffet often just because the options were great, food was great and it fit out schedule (mainly we didn't have one). Our cabin stuart was polite and never a bother. He kept our room in tip top shape. Our stateroom had a nice layout and was a connecting room. Our two 18 yr old daughters stayed in the adjoining room. The staff overall on the ship were polite and profession as always. All of the onboard entertainment was exciting and we really enjoyed the late night activities. Finally, the shore excursions we a lot of fun and there were many options. We chose to do the snorkeling in Great Stirrup Cay and jet skis in Nassau. The family had a blast, it was safe and would totally do it again.
