Creator's Key Takeaways

I really enjoyed my first cruise with NCL trying to position them based on my previous Cruise experience I would say they reminded me most of Royal Caribbean

Norwegian Spirit almost perfectly Blends that ethos of modern cruising within a more elegant and traditional oceangoing package

I highly recommend a cruise on Norwegian spirits

the food was delicious The Taste was really similar to restaurants I've enjoyed on land
