Going on our very first cruise 7 years ago completely blew me away. Sailing with NCL cruise lines has changed my view of cruising entirely. NCL has a freestyle cruising. That being you can have your own dress code throughout the ship. That was perfect for the hot days on board or the cold nights out at sea. The tours offered by NCL at destination cities are very informative and exciting to say the least. The food, is by far excellent. The chefs and servers are very polite and always attentive to the guests every need. On board the ship, there is always something to do from the singing lounge, the nightclub, or getting another round of ice cream at the café. For the romantic types, there was always a fancy restaurant to go to and the upper deck to enjoy a small walk as the sun set on the horizon. Every time after disembarkation of the boat, I feel sad that I cannot go for another round on the cruise. For however long the cruise you take with NCL, it would always be your home away from home.
