I sailed on the Norwegian Dawn, and I absolutely LOVED it! The service was fantastic. The food was amazing. There is nothing wrong with this ship at all. There is plenty to do on the Dawn, so you are always occupied with something. I always spent time at night, looking at the daily newsletter in our cabin, listing the next days events. I was never in my room, I was always out doing something! There is plenty for the kids to do as well, so parents can enjoy their vacation, while kids are occupied.
One thing I would say to go and see is "Second City." I laughed the entire time with the hilarious jokes they came up with. They also included the audience in some of the skits. This show is the one to go and see. The show that you should NOT see is the 70's dance show OR Bollywood. This show was the CHEESIEST THING EVER! The people CANNOT sing and the dancing was terrible. But, the funny thing was, that they thought people actually liked it, and felt that it was necessary to come out for a 2nd AND 3rd bow. GO to Second City, DON'T GO to 70's dance show or Bollywood.
I would suggest eating at Cagney's Steakhouse, and ordering the Fillet Mignon. It's delicious! But, make sure that you dress nicely for this restaurant, because there is a dress code. No shorts, flip-flops, or wet clothing in the restaurant. Another great place to eat is the Garden Cafe. It's a large buffet with absolutely EVERYTHING! You can eat whenever you want at the cafe, and eat as much as you want, for free! The Blue Lagoon is open 24 hours and is basically a fast food restaurant with burgers and chicken fingers. There is a variety of foods to eat on board the Dawn, whatever your in the mood for!
When we finally reached Bermuda, I fell in love with the entire island. It's a beautiful island and great vacation spot. One place you MUST see is Horseshoe Bay Beach. The sand there is PINK and the water is CRYSTAL CLEAR! Walk further down the beach to find small, private coves, away from the large crowds of people. But, if you are going to stay on the main beach, watch out for the groups of coral in the water!
Also, I would suggest going to the Crystal and Fantasy Caves. The caves are full of stalactites and stalagmites. The caves are beautiful and astounding. All of the stalactites and stalagmites were shaped certain ways, so it looked like something in real life. Like in the Crystal Cave, there was one group of stalactites and stalagmites that looked like the New York Skyline! If you're in Bermuda, I would suggest going to see both of these places.
Even though we only spent 3 days in Bermuda, we did so much and had a great time. If you are planning a trip to Bermuda, I would suggest taking a cruise on board the Norwegian Dawn!

| Second City was fantastic
Bollywood and 70's Dance Show was very boring and plain | | Shore Excursions | n/a |

| The Maid Staff was fantastic and were always walking around in case anyone needed anything in their rooms. | | Children's Facilities | n/a |
| | Onboard Activities | |
| Plenty to do! | | Cabins | |
| The Balcony cabin was enjoyable. But I noticed the inside cabins were very small as well as the oceanview room with just a window. The balcony was needed, or I would have felt very claustrophobic | | Overall Rating | |
