An Alaska cruise has been on our bucket list for quite some time so when planning this, I saw that the Jewel was a potential itinerary. We sailed on the Jewel back in 2007 (Italy and France) and thoroughly enjoyed it. Seeing that it was renovated recently, we thought we'd give it a try and we were glad that we did.
My wife and I sailed with our two daughters (in their 20's). We booked the ...
I went of my first cruise 7 day on the Escape. Worst decision ever, a big ZERO in customer service, it was nothing but problems from the moment we got there. Had to wait 4 hours or more in the hallway for the room to be ready, ordered food to the room and was wrong all three times. It is a big party boat, they advertise huge olypic pools and when you get there it is a 10x20 with no room to ...
It was a group of elderly going together on an unbelievable experience because we wanted to get baptized in the Jordan River, but it turned out to be really bad. At first we got to the cruise without our luggage’s because United Airlines misplaced all our luggage’s and we got them four (4) days after sailing (this wasn’t the cruise fault, but for other stuff I need to let you know about this), Our ...
So we chose this cruise for our daughter's sweet sixteen gift. From the get go I didn't like reservations wouldn't allow me to put the passengers where they needed to be, two the air their was 7 of us going. So since I couldn't have my elderly father-in-law with my disabled son, my husband and I had to be their guide. My father in law and husband flew Denver to New York, then to Rome, My son and I ...
My husband and I love cruising and have traveled the world. We wanted to celebrate our 40th anniversary with family and share our favorite way to sight-see. My husband was skeptical, saying that cruising the Hawaiian Islands was really an expensive ferry ride... but I persevered and convinced him that it would be an amazing family celebration and vacation (without worrying about passports, etc., ...
First time with Norwegian. We had a balcony on the 13th Deck. The cabin was nice and comfortable. The food in all dining was great! Pool and amenities were great and drink package was perfect. We have done several cruises with another line and loved them but Norwegian is tops! We have already booked another for Spring ‘24.
The selections of different restaurants is great, lots of selection. ...
This is the fourth time I have taken a Bermuda cruise with NCL, unfortunately, this was the most disappointing of the four. This was the first time on the NCL Pearl and while the ship was nice and the staff was exceptional there were a few areas that are not like they were in past sailings. First, the entertainment was a significant downgrade, in the past the nightly entertainment was excellent ...
Iceland, Greenland, and all the icebergs were beautiful to see and great to experience. With a full ship, the additional sea days did make us ready to get off. I also felt bad for the crew that did not get as many breaks from us. We missed 2 ports due to icebergs and 1 due to too rough to tender. The Captain noted that they looked at ice charts for the last 10 years and never saw that much ice at ...
I am writing about my journey on the Norwegian Star that departed Reykjavik for three destinations in Iceland and three ports in Greenland from July 13 to 23, 2023.
I traveled on several cruise ships before, but the NCL was the worst of all these experiences.
I hardly know where to begin, since there were so many issues.
I took this cruise with my extended family and some friends (10 ...
This was a very special cruise for us. We were looking forward to it for a long time and actually cancelled another cruise that made two stops in Greenland to do this cruise since it not only stopped in Greenland but also ported in Iceland with three stops around the island. Embarkation was totally unorganized. Just a little communication would have done wonders. Instead, when the large tented ...
