Several pros and cons - Oceania Japanese Immersion

Review for a Asia Cruise on Nautica

I chose this cruise because a good friend of mine read about it in her alumni magazine and it was a tour organized for alums (although hardly the only ones on the ship). The intinerary - 10 days around Japan to different ports (with one stop in Busan, South Korea) was great. I selected a package that included airfare, and multiple changes were made to my flight schedule. Several of us ended up ...

We have been on Oceania cruises before, and always felt they were superior to other cruise lines. However, we are extremely disappointing with our current cruise. The staff are great, the ship is clean, the food is good. What is not good are the excursions. There is great disorganization and red tape going through customs. For most of the ports, we were the first cruise ship to come through in ...

Apologies for such a long review. A party of five people travlling all family. We booked our cruise ( and 1 to come) from our experience going on Regatta 5 years ago, unfortunately due to illness and COVID we have only just managed to get back to cruising ! Our flights were booked with Oceania, our non-stop flight was changed to a stop in Dubai, which was fine, we flew Emirates. All went ...

We chose this 12 day cruise as a special celebration of my husband's and my big birthday year. It was very expensive (including RT airfare on BA from the UK). The reason we chose this cruise was because we wanted to see a lot of wildlife so we bought 5 tours (4 animal reserves and 1 desert trip). 3 of the tours were cancelled at the last minute supposedly for weather conditions in two cases and ...

We chose this cruise because of the itinerary and the reputation of having some of the finest food and wines on the sea. Oceania assured us that their agent could still get us e-tourist visas for India even though India was no longer allowing Canadians to obtain an e-visa due to a spat they were having with the Canadian government. We advised the agent of this. However, they insisted we could ...

First time on this line and attracted by the great itinerary. Used to the ship and cabin layout as we are multi time cruisers with Azamara/Regent/Holland America. The experience on the ship was good with the staff pleasant and obliging. The food was very good and found their approach to dress standards sensible, although some do push the envelope and look 'too casual' after hours in areas such as ...

Just completed Barcelona to Abu Dhabi - 20 days on the refurbished Nautica. The refurb is outstanding! Better food in the Grand Dining Room. Portions are much better/lighter. Speciality venues are excellent. Butler was Superb! Excursions were very good and the overnight in Luxor was outstanding. I am baffled by the other reviews in that this was one of the best cruises we have ...

Background We mostly cruise with Viking, Tauck, and with others, but three years ago we saw this itinerary and we couldn't wait - and then we waited three years. We are also introverts, so there are things Oceania offers that are simply not relevant to us - the bar scene, the entertainment, the casino, the sea day activities. We spend a little more for a larger room where we can happily hang ...

We chose this cruise because it was a smaller ship ( 680 guests) and because it was Oceania - a higher end line. We have sailed on Carnival (1x) Holland America (1x) Royal Caribbean (2x) Celebrity (2x) previously. We booked 2 years prior to sailing and we were looking forward to it as we hadn’t travelled due to COVID. The ship was small and because of that, (we had a balcony cabin )the ...

We chose this cruise line and itinerary due to reputation of cuisine, enrichment, upscale service & appointments. Oceania's marketing is stellar and we believed that this sailing would be heads above Celebrity, Princess and similar 5.0 or 5.5 ships. Sadly, we were mistaken. First two fine dining experiences were disappointing with inedible food, cold entrees, curious offerings like a potato ...
