Norwegian Cruise Line - Pride of America Review

We cruised on Norweigian Cruise lines Pride of Hawaii in January 2008.  Ship was very nice. Accomodations lovely.  Staff pleasant.

We liked the break from the more tradational cruiselines.  However the dining wasn't great. You had to have reservations (made 24 hours prior to dining).  If you could get into that dining room the service and food were not great! And you had to pay a premium to dine in that restaurant.  Usually the Free dining rooms were as good if not better! 

The excursions are at least twice as much if you book it thru NCL.  We found much better and longer excursions in Hawaii for half the price, when we found them ourselves on the island.  Also leasing a car is much cheaper if you don't do it thru NCL!

Ship was very nice. Sevice was mostly good except the coffee bar was broke the entire cruise. No LATTE's!  

Overall a good trip!
