We returned yesterday from this cruise on which we experienced both positive and negative issues. Positives - amazing crew, always smiling and helpful, and working so hard. Given demands and capacity, service and the food was great - varied and fresh in Garden Café, main dining rooms and especially good in Le Bistro. Cabin was kept very clean and shower room bigger than on some competing ...

A group of six of us traveled to Athens for a 7 day cruise to Israel, Cyprus, Turkey other ports in Greece, and found the Norwegian Jade to be in terrific shape. It clearly showed that great care had been taken in retrofitting in 2022, and it was a nice change from other ships we have been on in years past. Four passengers in our group stayed in one of the penthouse suites, and I cannot ...

Although I'm a veteran cruiser (more than 19 cruises at this point), this was my first experience on a Star Clippers ship. Sailing on this type of a ship offers a unique cruise experience, and in my opinion has the following pros and cons: PROS: • The Star Flyer has a passenger capacity of 170 max, but we had 155 on our sailing with all rooms occupied but one. This low passenger count ...

This is the second cruise we’ve been on with NCL. (The first was on the Pearl.) We’ve been wanting to go to Greece for a while now. Our travel agent told us a cruise would be the best way to see a variety of the islands. First of all their website is slow and horrible. When you purchase anything it takes a while to show up on your account. Don’t bother uploading your photo. We tried several times ...

Sadly, it is the last day of our cruise. I am happily sitting in the Constellation at deck 11 forward tip of the ship lounge with a cup of coffee, enjoying the view of Hydra. I love this lounge. It is huge, 3/4s around floor to seating windows, air conditioned and quiet most of day time. First, I will comment on a couple of board type topics. We had chocolates on our pillows, our room was ...

I chose this cruise because I have heard great things about it in the past and wanted to give it a try. I was blown away and I will never be able to sail a normal cruise ship again! The rooms are huge, the staff is on top of their game and super friendly. The ship design and finishings are top-notch. I enjoyed the entertainment on board, from Broadway including Rent to the Elton John tribute ...

Shakedown Cruise of the "new" Symphony

We wanted to try a shorter Crystal cruise in anticipation of a planned 2024 partial world cruise and were generally quite satisfied with the rebirth of our favorite cruise line. Sure, there were some shortcomings that one ought to expect on a shakedown cruise--the pool wasn't finished until the third day, TV was unworkable, water was turned off for one five-hour announced period, etc. However, ...

I don’t know what ship the last man reported but my experience on Crystal Symphony was terrible( may be he was a travel agent and had a subsidised journey Anyway to keep it short and sweet the ship is not fit for purpose yet.. it has had a refurbishment of cabins but it is an old ship that vibrates terribly.. I will just list the problems I had for the 8 day cruise My cabin vibrated even ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary and the cruise line reputation, as this was our first cruise on Holland America. The servers were friendly and accommodating, often going out of their way to please cruise passengers. But we can’t help compare the Oosterdam to several previous cruises on Celebrity, which continues to be our favorite. We enjoy the universally prepared Mai Tai ...

Terrible Customer Service

The ship was very nice and the staff on board were fantastic. The pool was much too small for the number of people on the ship. The restaurants were all very good. Without the issue I am going to address I would have given a rating of 4.5 out of 5. My major complaint and what puts a very bad taste in my mouth for this cruise line is the customer service after the cruise. I paid $250.00 U.S. (I am ...
