The Norweigian Epic: MOST uncomfortable and oddly configured balcony cabin ever.

The wonderful crew, fun excursions and for the most part good food could not make up for the most uncomfortable cabin I have ever experienced. I had been on this ship before but in an ADA cabin for someone with a motorized wheelchair. On this cruise I was in a regular balcony cabin. We had not gotten an ADA cabin but told Norwegian that we needed to be near the elevator because my cabin ...

Our first cruise and we were looking forward to a brilliant experience.. I had watched a couple of YouTube videos and regretted watching them AFTER we'd booked the cruise but being optimistic I hoped for the best. To be fair, and coming from England where everything is run down and broken, the appearance of the ship wasn't too bad. . The problem was the quality of the "extras" and how Royal ...

First and foremost, kudos to the service staff on the ship. The spa and restaurants/food staff members are incredible group of individuals who are dedicated, professional, and passionate about what they do.Ropa and Jay at the spa are amazing! The unlimited thermal pass, 359, is worth every penny! Everyone at the restaurants, regular, and specialty, always goes above and beyond. we did surfside ...

We chose this cruise primarily for the itinerary. Through no fault of Norwegian's, there was a port workers strike in Athens, so we departed several hours late. This left the shore excursion desk scrambling to help people for the Istanbul, Mykonos, and Santorini excursions. We only had one Istanbul excursion through Norwegian, so this wasn't an issue for us. We also chose to see Mykonos and ...

Worst Cruise of my life.... Done with NCL

We chose this cruise because it was the newest Ship, the itinerary (ports of call), and the feed back we got from people that sailed on other NCL ships including the Prima. What a waste of money..... It was a premium price to be on this ship compared to any others during the time including other NCL ships doing an Eastern Mediterranean route. We could have booked a similar trip on Celebrity in ...

We chose this cruise for the ports of call. To begin, they cancelled our overnight in Istanbul before departing. The time in the ports were cut short because the cruise excursions never left on time. There was always and hour or two hour delay to get off the ship due to the unorganized shore excursion personnel. It was a joke. So instead of adding time to our excursions we were just short ...

Poor NCL Customer Service-Missed Port & Shortened Port Stays.

I want to bring to your attention the disappointing experience my family and I encountered during our recent NCL Getaway cruise departing on July 12, 2023. Despite having high expectations based on the itinerary, our journey was marred by missed ports, shortened port stays, and subpar customer service. I feel compelled to share these grievances in order to shed light on NCL's ...

1.) Do NOT do their airfare package through them as a bundle deal. We called February 25th to set up flight deviations for arriving a day earlier than the cruise ship in Athens and leaving a day later in Venice. Our cruise ship set sail to leave on May 31st, so we had called before the “75 day” mark. On March 17th, our calls got disconnected so we tried again on March 18th to ask about vaccination ...

Chose this cruise because Silversea has in the past been good. Sadly this cruise did not come anywhere near previous experiences. Boarding very casual. No covid tests or temperature taken at port prior to boarding, according to literature from Silversea this would happen. Suite very good. No covid precautions on board. Just hand sanitizers. No one was wearing masks. First ...

We were on the Quest in early 2019, love it and wanted to go again but COVID-19 hit. We chose this "new" ship for its itinerary and Azamara reputation, oh boy!!! we were in big disappointment from the start. Three (3) hours delayed at the embarking terminal after 26 hours flight from the left coast, we just need to check in our cabin and rest. We were very disappointed in the condition ...
