Regent Seven Seas Mariner Cruise Reviews for Luxury to Europe from Athens (Piraeus)

Food: Absolute non memorable in anyway. The eggs served are classified with a number 3 stamps meaning these are battery cage eggs. Nowadays these eggs are strictly forbidden in the EU but apparently Regent knows her way to get them on-board serving this animal cruelty eggs to her passengers. The above only states the way Regent is looking at food quality, animal welfare and at cutting costs. The ...

We took a 10 day Regent Mariner cruise from Athens August 28 to Barcelona Sept. 6. First time on Regent and I have nothing but good things to say about this cruise line and this ship in particular. I chose this line because it only had 700 passengers (do not believe it was completely full)alcohol , all excursions were included, all inclusive (food and beverages included) and no tipping necessary ...

This was the best cruise I've ever taken, and I didn't find anything unexpected to complain about. The May weather was excellent. The only rain was while I was indoors on embarkation night and at the airport after debarkation. The waters were extremely calm. There were so many shore excursions to choose from that I feel I could take the same cruise again, choose different excursions, and have an ...

I booked this cruise because of a conference onboard and also wanted to see what 6 star cruise experience is like. The chance to visit the Black Sea was also an attraction. I added the business class upgrade to Athens and from Istanbul because of the long flight from the west coast of North America. It was well worth the $999 each way. They flew us there on KLM and back on Delta. We were met at ...

This was our 18th cruise and was everything and more than we expected. Those who have had bad comments about the Mariner in other reviews should be ashamed of themselves. We sailed on The Mariner on July 8 on a 10 day cruise (Aegean Allure), Athens to Istanbul. This was our first so-called luxury cruise. The ship was wonderful even though it was much smaller than the mega-ships, there was more ...

We are in our late-40's and have travelled extensively to a number of 5-star destinations in North America and the Caribbean - we have high standards for our vacations! This was only our 2nd cruise and we were a bit nervous because our first cruise experience (Royal Caribbean) was only mediocre. Instead, our 10-day "Aegean Allure" cruise aboard the Mariner was totally above and beyond all of ...

First let me begin by saying that this was our honeymoon and we could not have asked for a more perfect, special trip than sailing with Regent for celebrating our marriage. We have cruised before, but this was our first time sailing with Regent. We were on the 10 day Mediterranean sampler from Athens to Barcelona. I will try to keep this as organized as possible while still hitting all of the high ...

Background Info: My wife and I have been on 7 cruises in past 5 years. We now clearly prefer Regent and this cruise helped reaffirm this opinion. It was a 12 day cruise from Athens to Istanbul and originally included two days in Egypt. They were replaced with an extra day in Israel and a stop at a wonderful port in Crete called Aghios Nikolaos. I assume many passengers cancelled when Egypt was ...
