Since our embarkation was delayed we were unable to have the embarkation photo nor did we enjoy the sail away party. But NCL tried their best to make it up to their guests.
Went with a group of 16 family members to celebrate wedding anniversaries & share my grandson’s 1st cruise experience. Hard to have entire group do things together or find each other when out of our cabins.
On past NCL cruises we also had celebrated anniversaries. All we needed to do was to tell them when we arrived at the restaurant we were celebrating our anniversary & we were serenaded while we cut the small cake that was brought to us. I was so disappointed my daughter & son-in-law did not receive the same for their 1st anniversary. It is my understanding now you need to get a coupon for the anniversary cake prior to being on the ship. Our cruise consultant was told numerous times they would be celebrating on the ship but he never said a coupon was needed. Very disappointed!
Had cleaning issues but was corrected immediately. Think our cabin steward needs a little more training.
The Black Swan was a replacement for our 1st choice of electric paddle boats. It was a quick, interesting & informative excursion. Great staff & drinks.
