Review for a Panama Canal & Central America Cruise on Norwegian Sun

We chose this cruise because we wanted to do a full transit of the Panama Canal. It left from San Francisco and sailed out under the Golden Gate Bridge, which was wonderful. We also enjoy "Fleet Week" activities by the Blue Angel Navy team while waiting to sail!
We had been on a previous cruise on Norwegian Sun and liked the intimacy of this smaller ship.
We decided to book and Oceanview ...

Always wanted to do a panama canal cruise. We were not disappointed.
It was hot and humid, so that limited our excursions. They couldn't guarantee an air conditioned bus, so didn't go on any tours, just went out to shops close to the ship.
Our first time cruising with NCL and it won't be our last. Inside cabin was larger than expected, bed very comfortable. Our steward was outstanding. ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s
I chose this cruise for the trip through the Canal plus having the experience of several ports that I was interested in seeing in Mexico, Costa Rica and Columbia. It was action packed with many activities onboard. Actually, too much to do - with overlapping activities that I wished I could take part in but didn't get a chance.
My steward was very attentive and helpful and I loved all those ...

This was a bucket list item. Itinerary was amazing. Taking the repositioning cruise allowed for more time at ports and extra glaciers. Captain did “donuts” with the ship so no matter where you wer on the boat you had a wonderful view. The cabin Stewart was so helpful and cabin was always cleaned to perfection. Bar staff were very helpful as well. The ship is a little older and had not been ...

We chose this cruise because we have never been to Alaska and this cruise offered additional stops in British Columbia at Prince Ruprt and Nanaimo. There were 8 ports of call so we knew we would have the opportunity to see a lot. We chose the Sun as we have sailed on it three times before and enjoyed each of the other cruises. We were last on the Sun in March 2016 for a South American cruise ...

We chose this cruise for the opportunity to see San Francisco and Vancouver with extra days of travel at both ends of an Alaskan cruise and were not disappointed. The Sun is a beautiful yet small ship with a great crew and staff. As an older ship, it gave us the feel of cruising in the late eighties, early nineties. The entertainment was a 50/50 experience for us. We loved Harry ...

Had been to Alaska before (Princess) and wanted to go again. Booked this cruise on Norwegian because it was longer then Princess and less expensive. Now I know why its less expensive, because you get less. It starts with boarding in San Francisco, with Princess I arrived at the terminal and basically walked straight on board stopping a couple of times to due check in items with never a line of ...

We joined the ship at San Francisco for the Alaska cruise and in spite of having an arrival at the pier time we had to queue for about forty five minutes outside the terminal. Being a hot day I was not too happy about this. Once inside the terminal things moved slowly but we were on board in a reasonable time. We were delighted with the ship. Having previously cruised on the Getaway we found this ...

This was a 14 day NCL cruise to Alaska. The Norwegian Sun is one of the smallest NCL ships and I really enjoyed not being so overwhelmed by crowds both on and off the ship. The Sun visited several ports I'd not visited on my two previous NCL Alaskan Cruises. Besides the Big Three ports of Ketchikan, Juneau, and Skagway, this cruise the Sun also visited Astoria, OR, Icy Strait Point, Sitka, ...

Alaska was a lifelong dream. The ports were good; weather unpredictable (it was, after all, Alaska in May). Icy Strait Point was our favorite! Not touristy and saw dozens of whales. We loved Skagway and Sitka.
Our ship was another story. The food was awful! Comparable to a cafeteria. The same food over and over every day. Fresh fruit and vegetables were (almost) nowhere in sight. Food ...
