The Best Cruise Lines For Vegans

This post may contain affiliate links. If you click one, I may earn a commission at no cost to you. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

I’ve been vegan for many years and have taken over 40 cruises with almost all of the major cruise lines.

On some ships, I’ve enjoyed the most incredible gourmet meals with ever-changing five-course vegan menus. And on others, I’ve had little more than French fries, salad and bread rolls.

How well cruise lines cater for vegans can mean the difference between enjoying a fantastic cruise, and barely surviving the week.

In this guide, I’m rating every cruise line I’ve sailed with from best to worst based on their plant-based offerings. I’ll also let you know about any secret off-menu vegan items I found.

Let’s start with the creme-de-la-(soya)-creme…

1. SeaDream Yacht Club

Me with SeaDream yacht club

SeaDream Yacht Club offers boutique yacht-style cruising on small ships with around 100 guests and a crew-to-guest ratio of 1:1. This small scale enables the cruise line to go above and beyond to accommodate everyone’s dietary needs, with plant-based people being especially well catered for.

The owner of SeaDream Yacht Club, Atle Brynestad, has been vegan since 1991 and also owns an organic vegan farm and two vegan restaurants in Norway.

Aboard SeaDream ships, I enjoyed the most delicious and healthy food I’ve ever had. Each evening, there is a five-course plant-based menu. But if there’s anything you don’t like on there, the chef will be happy to veganise any of the other dishes.

SeaDream vegan menu

During the cruise, Chef Tomas came to find me regularly to ask how I was enjoying the food. He would discuss his plans for the next day and ask if I had any suggestions. He’s so lovely and it’s clear that he loves his craft.

I think it’s great that there’s no separate menu for vegans on SeaDream – it’s just a section highlighted on the main menu. This eliminates any hassle or embarrassment of having to ask for a special menu, and it also encourages every guest to give the plant-based options a try. Which Tomas said that they frequently do.

Raw vegan options are available for every meal too, for those who prefer food that has not been heated above 49°C.

Breakfast and lunch are always served outdoors with a combination of a set menu and a buffet loaded with the freshest fruit, salads, nuts and seeds. For breakfast, I highly recommend the tofu scramble and the hash browns.

SeaDream breakfast

On the buffet, nothing is labelled, but that doesn’t matter because there are so many crew members just waiting to help. They’ll greet you by name and even carry your plate from the buffet area to your table for you!

SeaDream yachts carry all the vegan alternatives you could wish for, with all of the different milks, margarine and vegan cheese readily available. I was even given a choice of different cheese for on my burger!

If you like mock meat, you’ll love Chef Tomas’ vegan burger which he handmakes with his own recipe using chickpeas and beetroot. It tastes more realistic than even a Beyond burger and I had to double check it wasn’t meat. He also cooks with ‘prawnz’, which are really nice.

Seadream vegan burger

When it comes to snacks, plain Pringles, pretzels and nuts are always available at the bar. But really, you can have whatever you like. Every crew member will go above and beyond to make you happy.

If you want to enjoy the very best in vegan cuisine and avoid putting on weight during your cruise too, the SeaDream Yacht Club is the best cruise line for vegans. I adored the food and would return in a heartbeat.

2. Disney Cruise Line

Cruise Mummy with Disney Wish

Disney Cruise Line is my second favourite cruise line when it comes to vegan food. And if you’re cruising with children, it’s a better option than SeaDream, which is orientated towards adults.

Disney has a rotational dining system, which means that you move between three different themed restaurants. As you do, your waiter moves with you, so they really get to know your family as well as everyone’s dietary requirements.

Disney Cruise Line doesn’t offer separate vegan menus, but you’ll find vegan options on every adult menu, and the food is delicious.

Disney cruise line example menu

There are sadly no vegan options on the kids’ menus. But kids are welcome to order from the adults’ menu too or if they want something simple like pasta with tomato sauce, that’s not a problem.

One thing to know when you cruise with Disney as a vegan, is that you can always ask for what you want, even if it’s not on the menu. And I definitely recommend that you do this!

At breakfast in the main dining room, I was able to order vegan sausages and the most incredible vegan omelette made with ‘Just Egg’, although these weren’t on the menu. Even the Mickey waffles can be made vegan on request!

DCL vegan breakfast

In the buffet, nothing is labelled with ingredients or allergens, which is a little annoying. I love it when buffets have labels!

However, the buffet staff are really friendly and will help you. They sometimes also offer to make you other things too, and they even brought me an avocado that wasn’t on the buffet.

Disney vegan breakfast

You’ll have no problem getting any kind of alternative milk, butter or cheese on a Disney cruise.

As well as the three main dining rooms and Cabanas buffet, there are lots more places you can eat in the food court on the pool deck too. Most stations have vegan options, so if you fancy a burger, hot dog, tacos or pizza for lunch, this is the place to go.

Duck in diner vegan sign.

Disney Cruise Line is great for families, of course, but it’s also great for adults too. The speciality restaurants, Palo and Remy are both adults-only. If you dine here, be sure to let them know that you’re vegan the day before and the chef will make something special for you.

If you’re considering a Disney cruise, I recommend that you head over to my Disney Cruise Line Vegan Guide next.

3. P&O Cruises

Cruise Mummy with P&O Azura

I’ve cruised on all of P&O Cruises family-friendly ships and I’ll start this section of the review by saying that some P&O ships have much more to offer for vegans than others. Arvia is the best, followed by Iona.

Every P&O ship has a vegan option on the menu in the main dining room. Sometimes you may have a choice, but it’s usually just one thing.

P&O Cruises main dining room menu

The food is pretty good, but I find that they can sometimes be a little low in protein, which is something to consider if you like to be mindful of that. If you’re a bigger eater, you may find the portions to be on a small side.

The main dining room is a great place to go for breakfast as you can get the most delicious avocado on toast with chillies, as well as vegan sausages and bacon to make a fantastic full English breakfast.

P&O Cruises vegan breakfast

The buffet is always very good on P&O ships and the line does a really great job of labelling things as vegan and also labelling allergens like eggs and milk.

There’s also a section where you’ll find vegan butter, any kind of milk you would like and sometimes there’s even vegan cheese.

special diets section on P&O ship

If you choose to cruise on one of the newer and bigger P&O ships, Arvia or Iona, you can also eat at The Quays. This venue has three different food outlets and you’ll find a changing menu of burgers, wraps, curries, noodles and the like.

P&O cruises vegan burger

Arvia also has two extra restaurants that are free to dine at – 6th Street Diner and The Olive Grove. Both of these have good vegan options on the menu.

Also unique to Arvia is Green & Co, which is the only fully vegan restaurant at sea. There’s an extra charge to eat here, but if you sail on Arvia you absolutely must. The food and service are both incredible.

Green & Co tacos

Wherever you eat, be sure to look out for the vegan meringue. It’s made using aquafaba and even the omnivores say it tastes great!

vegan meringue

Every P&O ship also has poolside dining venues where you can grab a veggie burger, just be sure to ask for no cheese. If you’re lucky, you can also get a pizza with vegan cheese. Not every ship will have this, but it’s worth asking because even if they do, it won’t be on the menu. It’s a secret menu item!

Every P&O ship also offers a variety of speciality dining restaurants that are available for an extra charge. Sindhu is a good one for vegans and the curries are lovely.

If you’re on a budget then P&O Cruises is definitely one to consider. The best ship is Arvia as it has the biggest choice of dining venues, but you’ll be well catered for on any of their ships.

For more info, take a look at the P&O Cruises menus here.

4. Celebrity Cruises

Cruise Mummy in a light blue dress stands in front of a large silver sculpture of two hands forming a heart shape on a Celebrity Cruises ship. The deck features a small pool in the background, and the woman smiles at the camera under a partly cloudy sky.

Celebrity Cruises is another cruise line that has a fantastic offering for vegans. When I cruised on Celebrity Apex I ate so much food!

In the main dining rooms, you’ll find a separate vegan menu with a choice of delicious options. Make sure you ask your waiter for it.

Celebrity Cruises vegan menu

If you can’t decide what dish to order, I recommend you order both. The waiter won’t bat an eyelid and the food is so delicious that you’ll have no problem finishing it.

Celebrity Cruises ships have the best buffets I’ve ever experienced as a vegan. There’s always a fantastic vegan corner that changes every day. It has some really interesting and exotic options such as steamed yucca.

Vegan Corner on Celebrity cruises

The rest of the buffet is huge and everything is clearly labelled making it really easy to know what you can have.

I recommend that you walk around and take a look before making your choices. Even then, everything is so good that I always ended up with a plate that looks like this… (haha)

In the buffet, you’ll also find a pizza station. Vegan cheese is available on request, and the pizza is incredible.

vegan pizza on celebrity cruise

Celebrity Cruises’ ships also have a variety of speciality restaurants that you can enjoy for an extra charge.

If you sail on one of the Edge-class ships, I recommend that you try the seven-course plant-based tasting menu. It’s pricey at $110, but the food is incredible so it’s worth the splurge.

Celebrity Cruises does a fantastic job of catering for vegans. Even the chocolates on your pillow are vegan-friendly!

5. Royal Caribbean

A family selfie with two adults and two children smiling in the foreground, with a Royal Caribbean cruise ship moored in the background at a scenic port surrounded by lush greenery and mountains.

Royal Caribbean does a pretty good job of catering for vegans. In the main dining room you can ask for a vegan menu which has a couple of choices each day. There may also be things you can have on the main menu too, so take a look at both.

Royal Caribbean vegan menu

The food in the main dining room is very tasty, and the crew members are very knowledgeable and happy to help with any questions.

There are some decent options in the speciality restaurants too. Izumi sushi is a good option and the vegan sushi is very nice. I also ate in Wonderland but was a little underwhelmed by some of the food compared to the main menu versions.

I found the buffet to be quite frustrating on Royal Caribbean ships. Nothing is labelled so you have to ask and the servers never seem to know what the ingredients are. They can go away and find out, but that means a lot of waiting around.

The buffet is huge though, so if you don’t want to wait, you can just select the things that are obviously vegan and avoid anything you’re unsure about. There is a vegan corner, but it’s very small.

vegan corner on Royal Caribbean ship

You do have to order some of the dishes too, and then wait for them to be cooked. By that point, the rest of your family are probably onto their desserts.

I would rate Royal Caribbean as average when it comes to vegan-friendly cruise lines. Adding labels to the buffet items would make things so much better for people with all kinds of dietary requirements.

6. Windstar Cruises

Cruise Mummy on board Star Legend

I was really excited to try the food on Windstar. This is a luxury cruise line that’s know for having excellent food.

On the menu, there’s always a plant-based option…

Windstar menu

Windstar Cruises is the Official Cruise Line of the National Health Association. This means that all of the plant-based dishes are also free from salt, oil, sugar and gluten.

While this is wonderfully healthy, it’s clearly a challenge to cook within those limitations. The food was very nice, but I found some dishes to be a little lacking in flavour given the lack of salt and sugar. Although you can always add salt at the table if you wish.

On a Windstar Cruise, you’ll enjoy breakfast and lunch in the restaurant with a combination of buffet and a la carte choices. I found the options to be a little limited compared to other cruises I’ve been on.

This breakfast would have been lovely with some vegan sausages, avocado, tofu scramble or mushrooms.

Windstar vegan breakfast

I must praise the room service on Windstar which is free of charge and always excellent. This veggie chilli was particularly delicious.

Windstar room service

If you love to eat super-healthy food all of the time, then I have no doubt that you’ll love the food on Windstar. But, if like me, you like a pizza with vegan cheese or a veggie sausage on occasion, you may miss those.

7. Princess Cruises

princess cruise ship

I’ve cruised with Princess Cruises a few times and I was SO excited to hear that they’d launched a dedicated vegan menu. When I sat down in the main dining room on the first night of my cruise on Sun Princess and was handed the menu, I was even more excited!

Princess Cruises vegan menu

The menu wasn’t clear which dishes were vegan and which were vegetarian as some had leaf symbols, but then some without symbols mentioned vegan cheese. The waiter assured me that I could have anything and they would make it vegan.

I placed my order. After 90 minutes, no food had arrived. I asked the waiter and he said that there had been some confusion and actually we couldn’t have anything on the menu at all!

He said that everything must be pre-ordered so we could only order for tomorrow. Tonight, we could have only plain salad and pasta. This was pretty disappointing, especially given how long we had waited.

Princess Cruises ships have so many different dining venues. This makes pre-ordering the main dining room very difficult as you may not eat there two nights in a row.

We did eat in the main dining room again, but the food wasn’t great. I hope that you have a better experience than me when ordering from Princess Cruises vegan menu as on paper, it looks great.

I feel that Princess Cruises’ redeeming feature is the buffet, which is so good that I would happily eat there for every meal. The buffet is huge and everything has labels. There’s even a vegan pasta station with a choice of sauces on Sun Princess!

vegan pasta station on Sun Princess

I particularly loved the buffet at breakfast time. You can have avocado, hash browns, and lots of delicious fresh fruit including things like strawberries and raspberries which you don’t often see on a ship.

The buffet has some great options for lunch and dinner too with cuisine from around the world. Outside the buffet and up on the pool deck there are stalls with vegan hot dogs, burgers, tacos, nachos and other dishes. The choice is incredible.

If you purchase the Princess Plus or Princess Premier package, you can also dine in some extra venues. I loved Alfredos on Sun Princess. You don’t need to book, just turn up. They have vegan cheese and the pizzas are lovely.

On the whole, Princess Cruises is pretty good for vegans. And I hope that when you eat in the main dining room you have a better experience than me. If It wasn’t for my bad experiences there, Princess would be one of my favourite cruise lines for vegan food. I’ll definitely try it again.

8. Cunard

Cruise Mummy smiles while holding a glass of white wine on a Cunard cruise ship, seated on a deck chair with a navy cushion featuring a gold embroidered emblem.

The vegan food on Cunard was surprisingly good. In the main dining room on the first evening, I was told that there was a meal being prepared for me already.

The waiter explained that on the following evenings, if I would like to pre-order, then I could have anything from the vegan menu. This was great communication.

Cunard vegan menu

Cunard’s vegan menu is huge, and it was great to have so many choices. However, I’m not a fan of pre-ordering as I don’t like to eat in the main dining room every night and I don’t always know what my plans will be for the next day.

Cunard’s main dining room food is very well-presented and tastes great. My only complaint is that the portion sizes are usually quite small. If I ate at 6 pm I would be hungry again by 9 pm and there’s nowhere that you can get food at that time as the buffet is closed.

I particularly loved the main dining room breakfast – the avocado on toast was lovely. The British cruise lines always do the best English breakfasts.

Cunard vegan English breakfast

The buffet on Cunard is good too. It’s pretty big. On Queen Mary 2 I found it to have a very strange layout with hidden sections, so be sure to look around it all before you decide what to have.

There’s a sushi station every day at lunchtime – the vegan sushi is excellent.

You’ll have no problem getting any kind of plant milk. It’s not advertised anywhere, but you can also get vegan sausages and bacon at breakfast in the buffet. Mine were rock hard though so I only had those once.

9. Ambassador Cruise Line

Cruise Mummy with Ambition cruise ship

Ambassador Cruise Line is a British cruise line offering regional departures from ports across the UK. It also has a pretty good offering for vegans.

The food in the main dining room is excellent. You do need to pre-order, though. You’ll have several options that change each day.

When you write your name and room number on the paper, just remember to write VEGAN so they don’t serve you the vegetarian option.

Ambassador Cruise Line vegan and vegetarian menu

On one night of your cruise, you’ll enjoy a seven-course Gala dinner. There’s a vegan version for every course and the food is incredible.

After dinner is the baked Alaska parade. While you can’t have the baked Alaska if you’re vegan, you can opt for vegan ice cream.

The buffet is fairly small, but then so are Ambassador ships, so that’s to be expected. Everything is clearly labelled though and you can get plant-based butter, milk and most things that you need.

vegan section in Ambassador Cruise Line buffet

The vegan sausages aren’t very nice, but they’re there, and you don’t have to ask for them to be cooked especially, so that’s not bad at all. I would definitely cruise with Ambassador Cruise Line again and I love their main dining room.

10. MSC Cruises

Me with MSC Euribia

Like most cruise lines, MSC Cruises has got much better at catering for vegans over the past few years and on my latest MSC cruise in 2024, I was thrilled to see that they have now introduced a vegan menu.

MSC Cruises vegan menu

The menu shows a few days at once, and it’s not clear which are starters and which are mains, or how many you’re supposed to order. I just ordered everything and this is what arrived…

What I received didn’t match up to the menu. I’m pretty sure that’s not ‘mango coconut cream’, but the waiter just said ‘that’s the vegan option’. So I ate it.

The service on MSC sometimes leaves a little to be desired. I find that the crew members often lack both the time and the language skills to help with any slightly complex questions, which is shame. That’s not their fault, they still work really hard.

MSC’s buffet is pretty good. There’s a decent selection and meat alternatives are used in some of the dishes, which is great.

Unfortunately, the labelling can be inconsistent, with some items marked as vegetarian that are actually vegan and no allergen labelling.

You can get a pizza with no cheese on request and all the plant milks are available.

If you’re planning a cruise with MSC Cruises, I have a more detailed guide to eating vegan on MSC for you.

11. Star Clippers

Cruise Mummy with Royal Clipper

Star Clippers offer cruises on the world’s largest square-rigged sailing ships. With only around 200 guests on each ship, the dining options aren’t as varied as they are on larger ships.

Breakfast and lunch is served buffet-style in the dining room. Here’s what that looks like…

Royal Clipper breakfast buffet

There isn’t a whole lot of choice, and nothing is labelled. However, the staff are helpful so you can ask if you’re not sure what something is.

At lunch, the chef came over to ask if I would like anything else. I requested penne arrabbiata and he made it, which was very impressive.

Dinner is a three-course meal where you’ll dine in the company of your fellow guests. There are no vegan menus – special diets are catered for on an individual basis.

In the main dining room, I was never given a menu. Instead, the waiter would deliver me a surprise dish. I had no idea what it was until it was in front of me, and sometimes not even then!

The food was very nice and always fresh and colourful. I was always given at least two whole avocados in every meal, which made me a little concerned over the calories! Although I’m sure that if I had asked for no more avocados that could have been accommodated on future evenings.

Star Clippers is another cruise line that offers the baked Alaska parade, with an alternative dessert for people who don’t eat dairy.

If you like vegan cheese, margarine and meat alternatives, or are anything like a picky eater, then this probably isn’t the cruise for you. But on the whole, I was very happy with the food.

12. Celesytal Cruises

Cruise Mummy with Celestyal Olympia

Celestyal Cruises caters mostly to a European market, and it feels as though they haven’t put too much thought into their vegan offering.

I last sailed with them in 2022 and will be sailing again in late 2024, so I’ll update this guide with any new info after my next cruise. Perhaps things have improved?

The menu in the main dining room does have vegan labelling, although it’s not 100% accurate, which made me wonder if the head chef fully understands what vegan means.

Celestyal Cruises menu

There aren’t always options for vegans. But what you can do is request to see the menu for the next day, then discuss how any of the dishes could be modified to suit your needs. For example, I asked for the Gigantes dish without honey.

The food in the main dining room is Mediterranean-themed and is very tasty. Although the starter is a plan salad and the dessert is fruit a little too often than I’d like.

Breakfast is served buffet-style and there’s not a whole lot of choice. There is soya milk and margarine though.

Celestyal breakfast

There’s also another buffet on the top deck for lunch. Nothing is labelled here and as you serve yourself, it can be hard to find someone to ask. But, the food is very nice and the chips are some of the best ever!

Celestyal Cruises buffet

If you cruise with Celestyal you certainly won’t go hungry. You just need to be prepared to discuss your requirements with the crew members and possibly also explain what vegan means and what you want to avoid.

13. Fred.Olsen Cruise Lines

Fred. Olsen Family Cruise

I’ve cruised with Fred. Olsen twice. The food that they offer for vegans is very nice, but it’s not always easy to know what’s available.

In the main dining room, the menu is labelled, but it doesn’t always have vegan options. If you speak to the waiter they will let you know what they can come up with. They’re very helpful.

Fred olsen menu

You can request to see the menu for the next day. But if there’s nothing vegan on there then it feels like it’s up to you to come up with ideas! And as you’re discussing this with a waiter rather than a chef, they don’t know what’s possible.

For that reason, I ate in the buffet most evenings. The buffet on Fred. Olsen ships isn’t like a normal buffet. You’ll be shown to a table by a crew member and served drinks at your table so it doesn’t feel too casual for an evening meal.

The buffet team are really friendly and are happy to modify dishes where possible.

For example, one night there was Pad Thai with chicken and prawns, and they made me one with tofu which was great. Not what you would usually expect from a buffet at all!

vegan pad thai

At the Poolside Grill, there’s nothing vegan on the menu aside from French fries. But when I asked, they said: “Yes, we have vegan burgers!” The burger was really good.

veggie burger

I have no idea how many of these burgers they make, but since it’s a secret menu item, it can’t be many as people just won’t know to ask for it. This is a shame as some meat-eaters and flexitarians will order a veggie burger if its there but won’t go out of their way to ask for one.

At breakfast, there are also secret vegan sausages and secret vegan bacon, so be sure to ask for those if you want them!

Fred Olsen vegan breakfast

I thought the food on Fred. Olsen Cruises was great. My only wish is that they would make it easier for people to know what they have by putting it on the actual menus.

14. Costa Cruises

Cruise Mummy wearing sunglasses and a gray t-shirt with a black heart symbol stands smiling in front of a large Costa Cruises ship docked at a port. She has a backpack on, and the ship is visible against a partly cloudy sky.

Costa Cruises are the cheapest you’ll find with prices often as low as £30 per day, including food! But even though the cruise line obviously has a low budget for ingredients, vegans won’t starve. But, you may become protein deficient though, so pack protein shakes. (I’m not joking).

I love how the main dining room works on Costa Cruises. Solo travellers are seated together, so you can easily make friends. And you always get four courses rather than the usual three. Which is needed, because the plates are quite small.

Each day you’ll be given a vegan menu with some choices for the next day. It’s great that there are choices, but it can be a little annoying if you don’t want to eat in the main dining room every day.

Costa cruises vegan menu

The buffet on Costa Smeralda was pretty big. But nothing is labelled and most of the buffet attendants don’t speak enough English to help. Most guests on Costa Cruises speak Italian, French, Spanish or German, so expecting English as well is a big ask.

There’s not much that looks vegan aside from salad and bread. There’s a fantastic pasta station though, and I had the pasta every day. I added chillies. There was no option to add vegan protein or even vegetables, only meat and cheese.

pasta on Costa Cruise

By the pool on Costa Smeralada, there’s an interesting-looking food outlet called Green. I was disappointed that it remained closed throughout my whole cruise. It costs extra, but I would have gladly paid for a poke bowl.

Green on Costa Smeralds

One speciality restaurant that was open was Sushino, which does some lovely vegan sushi for an extra charge.

The menu says there are take-away boxes, but I was told I must sit in the restaurant. This was a little embarrassing for me as it was formal night and I was wearing jeans, hoping to grab a takeaway to enjoy in the privacy of my cabin.

Costa is the only cruise line I have ever sailed with that doesn’t have refrigerators in the cabins. If you like to bring your own supplies like cheese, milk or butter and keep them in there, this could be an issue.

You can get soya milk in the buffet. You might have to ask around a few people who send you from one person to the next until you find someone who knows and they open the secret fridge for it.

The food on Costa is mixed – ranging from fantastic to inedible. But one thing’s for sure, vegan protein is pretty non-existent. You get what you pay for and if you get a good deal, Costa Cruises aren’t awful. But you’ll definitely want to pack some trail mix for emergencies!

Other Cruise Lines

There are a few cruise lines missing from this list. Carnival, Marella, Norwegian Cruise Line, Holland America Line, Virgin Voyages and Azamara are some of the cruise lines which I would love to review the vegan options onboard.

I haven’t included these either because I was vegetarian when I cruised with them rather than vegan (I’ve only been vegan since 2019), or because I have only visited for a day rather than taking a full cruise, and so I haven’t had a chance to fully experience all of the dining options.

It’s certainly not the case that any cruise lines missing from this list are bad. I’m sure many of them are very good. I have a Marella cruise booked for 2025 and will be updating this article once I’ve sampled their cuisine.

If you’d like to see real examples of vegan food on cruise ships then I recommend that you follow VeganCruiser on Instagram. In her stories, Sanna shares photos of all of her meals along with her opinions, and she doesn’t hold back!

2 thoughts on “The Best Cruise Lines For Vegans”

  1. We just got back from a 10 day Regent Seven Seas cruise on Voyager and the options for vegetarians were terrible. Some of the restaurants offered NO vegetarian options and I ended up eating sides and lots of bread.
    On the first day I saw nothing at the French restaurant that we booked so I asked the waiter for a vegetarian menu. He said that they didn’t have one but could make the pasta option without meat. We were cruising with friends and I didn’t want to ruin their experience so I pretty much ended up eating the same thing throughout the cruise.

    • Wow, so sorry to hear that! I would have thought that an ultra luxury cruise line like Regent would be making something special for you each day. That’s really disappointing. Jenni
