The #1 cruise ship we were anticipating after the pandemic was NCL's Prima. After loving the Waterfront on some of Norwegian's other cruise ships, we were excited to enjoy the Ocean Boulevard and everything else new about this ship. Join us as we give you our no-holds-barred review of this ship, which is part of the cruise line on which we have sailed most. We cover the ship, our veranda cabin, the service, the food (including 5 specialty restaurants), and the entertainment.
