We chose this cruise after long cancer treatment .It looked a good deal with a great itinerary. Sadly this cruise proved to be a disappointment.Although we had a lovely cabin spacious and beautifully clean the rest was a let down.After cruising several times in the past we had high expectations .The food was boring and repetitive and not very large portions in the restaurant but the buffet restaurant was like a free for all no spare tables and the food was the same most nights.The entertainment was not good mainly the entertainment crew dancing and fooling around .The theatre had shows every night but not a lot of variation.Our itinerary sounded good but the ports of call were uninteresting and having to pay for shuttles and take taxis made it extra expense.If this had been my first cruise it would have put me off cruising but happily we have enjoyed some really good cruises this being by far the worse
