    My wife and i have been on this ship twice and we have room 1530. As it's right at the top on port side you get fantastic views without any noise from guests. Also it has an extra curved bit on the balcony which is where we used to sunbathe. Really recommend this ship.

    I have a question... hubby and I don't drink (we're not adverse to drinking, we just don't bother) but would enjoy sitting in some of the bars and lounges to enjoy entertainment and people watch... so I'm wondering if we can do that and have something non-alcoholic to drink instead.

    • @TalkingCruise
      @TalkingCruise  6 лет назад

      Hi Ebba, thanks for watching. You can absolutely hang out in any of the bars and lounges onboard without ordering an alcoholic beverage. Unlike bars on land, cruise ships don't require minimum drink purchases.
