	Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 30 - 49 Cruise Experience: First cruise Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Balcony Not all I paid for ! by A Traveler from Macon, GA Sailing date: Dec 2010 Pros: Food, shows, not overcrowded Cons: Port changes This was my first cruise so I can't make a comparison, but I think there are better cruises to be had. I enjoyed the food, shows and overall feel of the ship but was dissappointed to have 2 of our 3 ports changed because of "technical difficulties" with one of the motors. After having to slow down they did what they could to compensate but I felt I didn't get what I paid for. We went to Samana, Dominican Republic and Great Stirrup Cay instead of St.Martin and St.Thomas. Weather happens and accidents happen but mechanical failures are preventable. As for the crew, they were great. They really make you feel welcome. Would I go again ? Yes, overall I did enjoy it.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: 2 - 3 cruises Traveler Type: Couple Stateroom Type: Balcony Horrible, Horrible, Horrible by Carol C from Atlanta, GA Sailing date: Dec 2010 Cons: Absolute disregard for customers Evidently their was a maintenance problem with the ship. Instead of going to St. Thomas and St Marrten, the decision was made to take us to Samana in the Dominican Republic and then to their own "private" island in the Bahamas. Samana was depolorable with beggers almost attacking people. We were close to several at least more acceptable destinations such as the Turks and Caicos, Puerto Rico, etc. but of course, I am sure the cruise line did not have to pay for port charges for the island and not much, if any, for Samana. The attitude of Norwegian was "too bad, so sad". I would never ever book another cruise with Norwegian. The cruise line has offered us another cruise with 30% off if booked within a year. In most cases, we could get a better deal elsewhere. Ship Details: Ship Quality Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality The ladies who greeted us at the buffet were very friendly and uplifting. The head of hotel services, head of guest services totally ignored the customers and were rude.

Cons: The disembarkation Hassle A well run Ship by NCL in all respects. Friendly and helpful staff, lots of good entertainment, wide selection of restaurants and food choices. The ship is showingi it's age,somewhat, but that did not detract from from the overall very posiive cruise experience.

Overall Rating: About the Reviewer: Age: 50 - 65 Cruise Experience: First cruise Traveler Type: Couple Overall experience. by Steven from Ellensburg, Washington Sailing date: Jul 2007 Pros: Staff, activities and cleanliness. For our first cruise, this was an outstanding experience. Everything was above our expectations except the food and dessert. We were expecting outstanding cuisine and the food in general was average and the desserts were overall poor. The food was counter balanced by the whole cruise experience, staff friendliness and outstanding activities.

Everyday the ship was so close to the british columbia and alaska wilds that the cruise was a outside panarama of ever changing beauty. Don't Miss: The white pass & yukon rail road excursion in skagway. Juneau, Alaska Glacier beautiful. The excursion to the glacier was great. They had an excellent park service building that explained how glaciers are formed and why they are receeding. Don't Miss: Glacier and Fish hatchery. Ketchikan, Alaska Ketchican was beautiful and rainy. Took a trolly tour of the town. The people who went to the lumber jack excursion said it was great. Our tour was good. Don't Miss: Lumber jack excursion. Cruise Sawyer Glacier Fair. The ship was far away from the glacier and we could not see any calfing of the ice face. 36 out of 39 people found this review helpful.

Ship Details: Dining/Food Stateroom Quality Ship Staff Quality Entertainment & Activities Read this user's port of call reviews: Cruise Inside Passage, Alaska; Juneau, Alaska; Ketchikan, Alaska; Cruise Sawyer Glacier Collapse List of Ports Ports of Call: Cruise Inside Passage, Alaska Alaska 2007. We had sunny weather the entire trip, which I was told is never the case! Don't Miss: The Tracy Arm Excursion. Juneau, Alaska Juneau 2007. We went up in the tram and got some beautiful views before heading to Mendenhall Glacier. Our tour driver was wonderful. Mendenhall is not to be missed! Don't Miss: Mendenhall Glacier and the tramway (weather permitting). Ketchikan, Alaska Ketchican 2007. We arrived early in the day and took the self-guided walking tour around town. Creek Street was charming. The Lumberjack show was overpriced so we skipped it. Don't Miss: Creek street. Cruise Sawyer Glacier Tracy Arm Excursion 2007. We booked the excursion through Norwegian that allowed us to take a smaller boat ahead of the ship to cruise Sawyer Glascier North and South. The scenery was breathtaking. I stayed outside the entire time, but sane people are able to stay warm inside the boat. Don't Miss: I definetly recommend taking the Tracy Arm Excursion. You get closer to the glaciers than the cruise ship ever could. 8 out of 9 people found this review helpful. Did you find this review helpful?
