16 friends cruised together just to get together and enjoy the ship and ports. Rhapsody is a smaller ship and we enjoyed not having to hike long distances to get to different venues. Yes, the ship is older and not as classy as others but that did not detract from great service, comfortable rooms and friendliness of the entire staff. We are veteran cruisers and felt that the staff on this cruise was the friendliest we have ever encountered. I have read mixed reviews of the food and have to say we were all satisfied, but then again, we are not "foodies". The entertainment was good: the RC dancers and singers were fun to watch, the magician (and I usually don't like magicians) was down right funny and had us scratching our head how he did things, the comedian kept us chuckling. One entertainer who did vocal impressions was the only show we did not care for,.
