Seven Seas Voyager Review
Rating by category
Additional details
We chose this cruise because of the itinerary and the price. We were able to get a very low Interline rate and would never have paid the full brochure price. For what we paid we got everything that a "real" passenger would get except for the round-trip Business Class Air, a night in a hotel and transfers. We did get tips, beverages, specialty dining and shore excursions.
We have cruised on Azamara and Crystal (As well as Celebrity, RCL, HAL and Princess) with a total of 45 cruises under our belts. We especially wanted to see if Regent could match the fine experiences we have had on both Azamara and Crystal as well as Celebrity. We were, generally, "underwhelmed". We often found ourselves saying, "But Crystal (or Azamara or Celebrity) does this so much better!".
We very much enjoyed the itinerary which started in Southampton and includes Zeebrugge, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Riga, Tallinn, St. Petersburg (2 nights), Helsinki and ended in Stockholm.
Cabin Review
Deluxe Suite
The cabin was quite large with a large walk-in closet and a marble bath with both a tub and a separate shower. The decor was dated and a bit worn. The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed having a stocked, complimentary mini bar.
The rather small balcony had two nice chairs that reclined and had pads. The table was too small to be of much use, however. We prefer the larger tables on Crystal and Azamara that can actually be used for dining.
One feature that we did really like was the table top that is stored in the closet and can be fitted to the coffee table. We like breakfast in the cabin and it was nice to have the table set for us each morning and to not have to juggle plates! (BTW, the quality of the food at breakfast was uneven. They just couldn't get poached eggs right. One would be hard boiled and the other runny and undercooked. Celebrity gets it right every time!)
Port Reviews
Southampton
We toured on our own. The Titanic Museum is quite good.
