Good tour nicely done. However, you completely missed deck 19 &20 FORWARD. Public sundecks with a bar, hot tubs and amazing forward views of the bow. Also Vibe Beach Club, the extra pay adult only sundeck with upgraded lounges, private bar and restrooms, plus snacks.
Thanks for a really engaging review. We were on the Escape for an 11 day cruise. It's a deceptively large ship and we never got round all the activities and venues. Unfortunately we found the food in the buffet to be a bit of hit and miss but always managed to find a seat with amazing rear wake views. We were staying in the haven but the menu ran out of steam after 7 days. Fortunately NCL had included in our fare the at sea package which came with 2 speciality dining venues and a drinks package along with with WiFi which we upgraded to full streaming for a really modest price. We should have added another speciality restaurant venue and we would have been fine. The previous year we had sailed RCL Odyssey of the season in a J4 suite but found the daily rate to be on par with our NCL Escape suite, so definitely NCL was better value for money taking into account perks and the whole cruising experience.
Nice vid! Loved NCL Escape..

Best review by far. Calm, great flow, thorough, and in depth on things the average cruiser can do (not haven) lol
Was looking for a glimpse of the Vibe Beach club but was never even mentioned!! Looking forward to to my cruise. Thanks
Deciding between this cruise and the princes regal!!
Outstanding ship tour...thank you!
Thank you so much for the lovely comment! Happy cruising!

Very nice, thank you for sharing your experience!
How is the tendering with ship this size when visiting Great Stirrup Cay, Bahamas?
Hit or miss because of rough seas. That's why they are finally building a pier to dock at.
