Norwegian Epic Review

July

Pros: Specifically restaurants were ok.

Cons: Too many to list

Recommended: No

Very disappointed in NCl! Ship was in need of major upgrades! Food was below expectations, Buffett was more like a school cafeteria with very few choices for food. Staff was overworked and not very courteous or friendly. Pools are too small and water was a hot bath! Entertainment was minimal although the Burn the Floor and Beatles shows were great. Needed to see them multiple times because there was not much else to do! Casino was good. Possibly we’ve been spoiled by RCCL but we had high expectations for NCL and to say we were disappointed is an understatement!

I want the company to do well, but it was super nice not having a full ship. Wonderful!!!
