We chose this cruise primarily due to the great reviews from Cruise Critic as well as the itinerary. This was an outstanding experience from top to bottom. Embarkation was surprisingly straightforward and easy, for such a large vessel it was actually easier to embark and disembark at ports than on any other cruise ship. We ate at all the specialty restaurants and the food was spectacular. Really enjoyable experiences, there were so quick sometimes we wished they wouldn't have been so efficient. The dining room experience (we did twice for dinner) was also outstanding with my time dining. We didn't have to wait for a table when we showed up around 630-7pm.

The entertainment was so much fun, from the show Mamma Mia, Blue Planet, and the Aqua Shows. We loved the energy the dancers put into the show.

The service was exceptional, I am pretty picky due to traveling so much for my work and the crew was awesome. In the rare occasion we had an issue, it was resolved very quickly and effectively. Read more
