Easy itinerary. Good ports. Only 7 days. The entertainment was good except the 3rd rate comedian (Ty somebody) and the female singer of Seascape. The food was good, except they had too many sauces on everything and the sauces were not combined well. They need to get rid of so many sauces. The crew is always good on these ships. We noticed that the crew is not longer as diverse as it was ...
We chose this cruise because of embarkation in San Francisco and the ports to visit. One main interest was the Getty villa and museum in the port of Long Beach. Unfortunately after we booked the cruise and the excursion, Princess changed the Long Beach port to San Pedro which offered nothing much to do and our excursion to Getty museum was cancelled. The main dining room staff was minimal with ...
Booked a cruise with Grand Princess as part of the California Dreamin package through the Scottish Cruise Centre. Had been on a couple of cruises with Royal Caribbean before, which were amazing so very excited to be doing another cruise and to California. However, within 20 mins of arriving on the Grand Princess our spirits were dampened as we soon came to realise that the ship was old, run down ...
Live in San Francisco area so loved how easy it was to walk on and off. Beautiful cruise. The Grand Princess, however, needs refurbishing. Halls smelled strongly of mildew. Sailing under Golden Gate is wonderful-never get tired of it. Overall, very organized and low key cruise-loved it. Port tours were fun. Went to Solvang,Queen Mary via uber, San Diego harbor cruise and City Lights tour-great ...
We live in the San Francisco area, twenty minutes away, no worries about flying, staying in a hotel the night before. With a new pier, 27, the embarkation and debarkation was very good, everything was organized. Sailed with Princes many times, first time on the Pacific Coastal cruise and would do it again. One small problem with the dinning room, the kitchen was slow getting food out the waiters ...
This was a San Francisco down the California Coast and return to San Franciso Crusie. The itinerary and stops were good. The ships crew and staff were wonderful and attentive. Had issues with the booking consultant and getting the cruise booked properly. I was told that I could wait and book excursions and specialty dining on-board, however, I found specialty dining had ended and some of the ...
- Convenient port of departure, only 30' from home!
- Itinerary okay. Would have been much better if we had more time in Victoria. Princess should consider less time in other ports to give at least 8 hours in Victoria.
- Princess definitely needs to provide handicap wheelchair assistance at the Vancouver port.
Very difficult for me to make it to the pier, and from the pier back to the ...
We live in the San Francisco Bay Area, so leaving and returning to San Francisco was a real plus for us. No airport hassles. The ship departed right on time, and we enjoyed sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge. Gives you a totally different perspective of this iconic structure. The cruise was a lot of fun for our group of 10. We enjoyed each of the stops (Astoria, Seattle, Vancouver, and ...
The cruise starts from San Francisco and ends in San Francisco. The cruise ship grand princess is great. Very organized embarkation and disembarkation. Just a little delay due to an emergency whic was handled with care. Cabin was great always clean. We had the aloha with balcony cabin. Beautiful and comfortable. You get the fresh air coming from the ocean. You see the awesome view of the vastness ...
Easier to drive to San Francisco than fly with my husbands heavy power chair from Thousand Oaks. The ship had beautiful amenities great food, excellent service, and the shore excursions were very good. The sights of Glacier Bay and Skagway were the highlights of the trip. The train trip to White Horse Pass was invigorating.We enjoyed celebrating my birthday at the Crown Grill and our sons renewal ...
