We are just back from a 14 night Navigator cruise from Southampton, to the Canaries and Morocco.
I have to say I am a little disappointed and it feels like RCCI is slipping a bit in terms of quality and service in terms of the hotel experience.
The Cruise Director 'Clo' and her crew were great and we had no problems with the entertainment on board or the Ports of Call (although we would ...
This is the first RCL cruise , we've done most other ship lines eg Carnival, Norwegian, Princess, HAL, MSC. The ship itself was excellent, and the cabin was larger than the other ships. Surprisingly, the food in the main dining room was average, with the meat items below average; would have rated it a 3 if not for the beautiful ship. The annoying thing was the constant upselling of their specialty ...
We were looking to return to Royal Caribean for a much needed holiday. Having previously had a wonderful experience with Royal Caribean over 16 years, we were very dissapointed to join the Navagator of the Seas and find a ship so tired in many areas and in need of major investment. The presentation and quality of the food in the dining room also had a great deal of room for improvement. Our ...
For the ports of call and the overall Royal Caribbean experience. We arrived on 9/29 at the air port by the RC transportation service who where on time, warm and welcoming. We decided not to come a day in advance but to fly directly to London and onto the ship.
The embarkation and disembarkation went very smoothly.
The overall experience was really great. The weather was a little colder than ...
Have just come back from this cruise and if you do not want to spend 14 nights without any sleep make sure you are not in room 9601or 9603. We spent every night being woken up at 1 and 3 in the morning by loud bangs and then the sound of gushing water. To be told that the main pipe ran through the room and they were emptying the Jacuzzi.
On a positive note the main dinning room staff and room ...
This was my first cruise with Royal Caribbean, and I chose it for the itinerary which included both Morocco and Paris as well as several stops in Spain, Portugal, and the Canary Islands. We did not spend time in Southampton prior to the cruise nor afterwards, preferring to spend our layover time in NYC. We very much enjoyed meeting our dining companions at dinner, all of whom had much prior ...
I thought the short flight would appeal however travelling over the bay of biscay was terrible I suffered terrible sea sickness which I never experienced before so I would not choose that route again I have been on this ship three times before and I felt that the standards had slipped a little I still enjoyed the trip but just not as much as before - I feel there were lttle extras before that we ...
We spent 3 days in London before our cruise began. On the third day a tour service picked us up at our hotel and before boarding he ship we had a tour of Stonehenge whith we really enjoyed.
We picked this cruise because we liked the itinerary. It was one of RCCL's midsize ships and easy to explore.
We had a wonderful time and met the most amazing people...we even attended a wedding ...
We chose this ship and iteniary to celbrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary. We are experienced cruisers ,this being our 23rd cruise with RCCl and we have 31 cruises all together. We sailed with our group of 20 long time friends. We spent 3 days in London prior to the cruise and traveled to South Hampton on a privately charted bus. We found embarkcation to be very efficient which resulted in us ...
This was a back to back with the Mediterranean cruise. The ship was great. All the amenities we required. Smaller than Indy but that did not detract.
We moved from a standard cabin to a disabled access cabin It was great to get the extra room for the scooter and the wet room
The couple who had this cabin before had cleaned it from top to bottom as they were very disappointed with the ...
