My wife and I are a middle aged couple, and this was our 12th cruise, but first with Holland. We have enjoyed all of our cruises to date, with the exception of only one, which was a cruise with Carnival. We had high expectations for the Eurodam as we have heard good things about Holland, but unfortunately the cruise did not live up to our expectations.

Should have noticed the first red flag when the embarkation was complete chaos. We arrived at the stated boarding time, but the main entrance was still blocked. The man at the door looked at our express papers and told us to go to the side and enter through the employee entrance. We waited in that line for 15 minutes before someone came out and told us all to go back to the main entrance. The doors still had not been opened, but now we were way in the back.

The food, which is extremely important to us, was average at best. Some items were good, but most only o.k., and some were not worth eating. The best was the carrot soup which was one of the better soups I have eaten. The meats, especially the steaks/filets, were far below average. We paid for a lunch at the Pinnacle Grill and could not even eat it! Total surprise as it is supposed to be a great specialty restaurant. And as stated by other reviews, the Tamarind provided our best meal and was worth the extra charge.
