Creator's Key Takeaways

It was just a regular nice buffet. Quiet. Not really anybody goes in there. It's a I'd say it's almost a hidden gem, but people should know about it.

The presentation was great. It was kind of amazing. It was interesting to see what they did that kind of made you think something different.

The taste of the food was mediocre at best. Some were good. The the potted shrimp was really good.

One recommendation I would make is people would say don't get a balcony on the south side of the ship on a transatlantic.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Consider the side of the ship when booking a balcony for a transatlantic cruise to avoid cold winds.
βœ“Wonderland is a 'try it once' experience rather than a repeat destination.
βœ“Be prepared for time changes and shorter days when crossing the Atlantic.

Time changes during transatlantic crossings β€” Expect to lose an hour almost every day, resulting in 23-hour days initially.
