I have been on 5 cruises.My first impression of the ship when we saw it was how small it was!But it was quite large enough for just cruising
the islands.For having just been restored I'm not sure where they spent the money.I felt it was easier and cheaper to rent a car and do
our own land exploring.The value for the money wasn't very good comparing this cruise with others going farther and more ports of call.
Getting ready to get off the ship my 83 year old Mother and I were trapped in an elevator.Having to use force to get out(since there didn't
appear to be anyone to help us)I pulled a muscle in my back.When I brought this to the attention of the staff they said just send them the
Dr. bill and they would take care of it.Not very professional since all my Dr. bills are paid anyway.Two years later I still suffer,do they care,
No I've paid for my trip I'm a passenger of the past.Would I take this cruise again,probably not.Would I recommend it?If you have never
been to Hawaii and want to see a little of each island then I'd probably say yes.
