The ship was clean and well maintained. Wi-Fi was a bit slow in remote areas, but overall a great value cruise. Slipped off to 2-Night New Zealand & Fiordland Explorer and had a fantastic time.

Great family vacation. The kids club kept the children busy all day, letting us relax in the adults-only Solarium. Slipped off to 2-Night New Zealand & Fiordland Explorer and had a fantastic time.
