I decided to take vacations the last moment (needed a break from a stressful work assignment) so once I decided on the destination, an Alaska cruise, I got what was still available so it wasn't really a thorough choice. Some other lines were selling out fast, the Norwegian Bliss still had a mini-suite (better accommodations were sold out) so I took it.
This was my first cruise so I didn't know ...
We traveled with friends who had chosen this cruise before we decided to go. Embarkation was the easiest and fastest of any cruise we have been on. This was our 6th, 2nd on Norwegian, 1st to time to Alaska. The only entertainment we saw was Jersey Boys. It was a good show. Most of the entertainment was in small venues. Even the main theater was small in comparison to other ships we've been ...
this was our first time cruising on a large ship. Because of the number of people on the ship, the cruise was not as pleasant as it could have been. spent a lot of time waiting for elevators and in lines at restaurants. Although there were a variety of restaurants most restaurants had the same menu and it was a matter of sitting in different restaurants to eat the same food. Many of the ...
This was my honeymoon cruise. I booked through NCL and was told I would be given a $50 shore excursion credit. When I got on the ship, I was told I didn't qualify. This put a damper on my honeymoon. It isn't the money, it is the principle of the matter. I was told to expect this perk but then denied it. I even asked if they would pull the tapes to check what I was promised. Guest services said ...
This was a girls trip of a lifetime. We had our eyes set on the Bliss since she was made for Alaska. Service all around was very attentive. The ship staff provided personalized service with chocolate covered strawberries, petit fours and hors’d oeuvres delivery to our stateroom throughout the whole trip! NCL anticipated our needs such as snacks and drinks with warm towels after excursions in the ...
Wanted to visit Alaska. This was my first time on a cruise ship and I absolutely loved it. Lots of things to do on board, terrific food and great staff from beginning to end. Since this was an end of season cruise, there were not as many people on board but there were still several thousand of us. Everything was managed very well with one exception. We did three excursions through Norwegian. ...
This was the most AMAZING vacation ever!!! The ship was remarkable, I was so amazed at how smooth everything ran and the staff was fabulous!!! The Dining choices were all really good, We ate at all the complementary dinning and they were all super good with lots of choices. The Ports and Excursions were all so much fun, I think one of my favorite days is when we cruised through Glacier Bay, it ...
We chose Norwegian Cruise Line Bliss when looking for an Alaskan cruise. Previous experience with NCL was excellent. Price was good.
The ship was gorgeous. Lots to do. We especially enjoyed the show's. But by far the greatest shows on an Alaskan cruise are provided by the sea & lands of Alaska and British Columbia. The mountains, bays, fjords, glaciers and whales were just ...
The ship was very nice but all the little things I was told I would experience on my first cruise did not happen
The food in the restaurants that I had to pay for were not to the caliber as what you would expect my advise dine at the buffet
Port stays to me were short and not enough time to enjoy the area
Never did meet my stateroom steward, left numerous notes requesting things that ...
We just returned from our cruise to Alaska. I’ve previously cruised the Princess and Disney lines. The Norwegian Bliss was incredible and my favorite. We stayed in the Haven 2 bedroom suite and adored every minute. The Haven is well worth the price. The Haven restaurant was outstanding in every way and by far my favorite place to eat on the ship. We had our 3 boys aged 13,13 and 12 and they made ...
