Insiders Tip
Norwegian Cruise Line ships often have so many onboard activities to try – including the water slides and go-kart tracks, that they can get super busy. Instead of wasting time waiting in a queue to try them for yourself, try get to them in “off-peak” times. This might be early evening when most families will be having dinner with their kids. Or maybe during the mornings or afternoons on port days when the majority of the guests are onshore.
