Everyone can have their own opinion.

I found the food, service and the entire ship to be running very well. Our lobster from St. Malo was really "over the top".

Sam Perry is doing an innovative job as cruise director, good programs and many were well attended.

Gerry is a wonderful entertainer and the duo in Gallieos were good.

The dining room staff are wonderful. They have all the old Song of Flower, Diamond people in the dining room.

The new bedding is great.

Tours, I dont really have much insight as I really normally do my own thing. We did a tour in Santander and loved it. A four wheel drive trip. Yet on that we had four people insist on going back to the ship at the first stop. Different strokes for different folks.

The vibration is an issue on the Navigator at times but actually during this trip the only time I really noticed it was in the show lounge at the life boat muster. The seas were so calm.

I guess all of those going on the Navigator in December can form their own opinion.

As I have always said, toss out the highly negative and the highly positive reviews and find the middle ground and that is where you get closest to how most people will feel about the ship.
