Set Sail With Odyssey

IMG_4769

Get ready to set sail on the Odyssey this summer! Beautiful, historic cruise routes, great on board entertainment, and delicious food – the Odyssey provides a luxury experience at sea in our nation’s capital.

My family and I had a wonderful time aboard the Odyssey ship. We were greeted with an opportunity to take a family photo before being guided to our seats. We had a gorgeous view with a table right by the window. It was beautiful! Inside the ship is well decorated, well kept, and ready to entertain its guests. It is much roomier than I imagined, with two spacious glass atrium dining rooms and dance floors.

The meals are served buffet style with a balanced variety. We enjoyed a brunch cruise with a full breakfast menu including waffles, eggs, sausage, fruits and more. There were also some delicious lunch options including salmon, pasta, salads, beef and more. Coffee and alcohol can also be purchased. Both the food and service was wonderful. Our glasses were never empty, and we certainly did not leave hungry!

My kids loved the dance floor. The band does a great job playing relaxing music as you enter and eat. Then they liven it up with fun songs to get everyone up on the dance floor. We had a blast! Since this was a Sunday Brunch cruise, it was a family friendly atmosphere and we really enjoyed it! The kids even got to say hi to the captain! It was so neat to cruise the Potomac River and see Washington DC’s monuments pass us by.

Experience Washington DC from a stunning, glass-enclosed ship. Listen and dance to live music. And take in the beautiful, totally unobstructed view of our nation’s capital while enjoying creative cuisine. Your Odyssey escape awaits!

Pricing and menu varries depending on the day and time you set sail. For more details click here.
