I have always cruised on RC and looking at the past ships and experiences that I incurred, it was the ship and and all the different activities that was the main reason to go on it. On this cruise the embarkation and disembarkation went smooth and fast. Not like the first time we cruised back in 2002. It took forever to disembark.
The ship was awesome and impressive. You did not think you were on a ship. The cabins were a little bigger than the previous ones I was on. The dinning experience was fantastic and the entertainment and activities were great. Service was tops and anything you asked for you got it.
All excursions except one were great. The St. Thomas tour to the Rumporium was a little deceiving as it only had about an hour of tour time and than you were left with about 3 hours of free time to go shopping. This was not properly explained on the web site. I thought there would have been more touring by the guide. We had wait around 3 hours before you could go back to the ship.
Cabin was a little bigger than previous especially with a king size bed. More room to put clothes away. Could have used a receptacle by the bed end tables.
