Norwegian Escape Review

Additional details
This cruise was originally supposed to have 6 ports; San Juan, st. Lucia, st. Kitts, Barbados, st. Thomas, and Roseau, Dominica. After final payment, itinerary was changed. San Juan was eliminated and Dominica was replaced with St. John, antigua. Overall, this was a very good cruise, but we were a little disappointed with the loss of one port and a total of 6 full days at sea. Having said that, this ship had great entertainment, friendly staff, and ultimately we had a great cruise.
Specialty restaurants were excellent. The main dining rooms were good, not great, and the buffet was just okay.
Embarkation and disembarkation went very smoothly with little wait time.
Cabin Review
Mid-ship Mini-Suite with Balcony
Great cabin steward, bed needed to be replaced.
Port Reviews
St. Thomas
2 hour ride taking you to various points for pictures. And of course a few places to buy things.
Antigua
About a 3 hour tour walking about 7500 steps. Visited the fish market, church, etc. it was just okay but our guide Bernadette was very nice.
St. Lucia
Stopped at a wood carving site before the rum distillery. After the rum tour, you get to taste unlimited shots of different rums and rum liqueurs. Fun and different.
St. Kitts (Port Zante)
Very boring, not great views, and not worth the $129 price tag for a 3hour tour.
