This is our 4th time on Grand Princess, and it is still a very nice ship, in spite of being their oldest. The Princess food experience remains very good, but they slip up in a few areas that would not have happened 5 years ago. Having also cruised with P&O and Cunard in the last 2 years, Princess are way ahead.
Our cabin has the usual issues of an older ship, very poor ergonomics, and very ...
Chose this cruise to celebrate our daughter's graduation. We are seasoned cruisers but first timers on a Disney ship.
Positives
- Best productions shows at sea.
All 3 were fantastic especially the "Frozen" show.
- Rotational Dining at all 3 restaurants were great. Excellent service provided by our servers from Indonesia, Raka & Angoro.
Great selection of food which was well ...
The crew have been handpicked for the ultimate world cruise and it shows. They are bending over backwards to bring unique experiences, cultural shows, destination briefings, etc. The company has created some frustrations through inconsistent policies towards people doing same types of sailings (ex, offering discounts to those paying in advanced but not applying this equally to clients), and on ...
This was our 3rd cruise and second with Oceania. Our first cruise was to French Polynesia on Regatta and was cut short due to the Covid outbreak. Despite this setback, we were very impressed and pleased with everything, especially the food and based on this experience, booked our most recent cruise with Oceania again. This most recent cruise was again on Regatta. A 16 day voyage visiting ports in ...
Im keen to try all the great cruise lines if possible and this Cunard ship was sailing out of Australia and returning to the same port at a time that suited our needs so seemed like the perfect choice for a nice holiday break. Check in was simple and quick, and we were allowed to go straight to our cabin once aboard which was fantastic. Ship is very smart, looks like a stately home of Art Deco ...
COVID UPTDATE: a friend traveling with us got Covid, Her symptoms appeared the 2nd day of the cruise, so she got in Ohio before got on cruise (3-5 day incubation period). Medical staff saw and put on meds to prevent needing hospitalization later, She has multiple risk factors to have a bad outcome if not on meds for Covid.
She was put on 3 day isolation and 2 more days to mask then do ...
We chose Norwegian Spirit for the itinerary since we are huge fans of LOTR and The Hobbit movies. Taking advantage of a special fare sale that included airfare meant we could spend more time and see more than on a land tour. This was our very first cruise on any line. As a party of 4 with 2 older teens we ended up booking two rooms so everyone had enough space. I can’t say I would ever do that ...
This is our second Silverseas cruise with the first being July 2023. The first cruise was an expedition cruise around the Kimberley region and was fabulous.
We are still onboard the current cruise but I’m exhausted from arguing with the fabulous staff night after night about this antiquated rule that men need a jacket even on informal night. My husband is well attired in smart country club ...
Just off Navigator last week. We are moderately experienced cruisers (~24 total), though this is our first Regent since the old Radisson Diamond in 1997.
We enjoyed the cruise, especially the excellent service and staff, both in the cabins and in the dining venues. There are always some glitchy times in dining, and this was no exception, as Christmas Day simply overwhelmed the ship's ability to ...
I travelled from Melbourne with my Mother on a 5 night cruise to Hobart, Tasmania. We really enjoyed our time on board this cruise. Cunard's Queen Elizabeth is in very good condition and is a beautiful, well appointed ship.
Embarkation was exceptionally smooth and I think we were onboard in less than 15 minutes.
We had originally booked a Brittannia Club Stateroom on Deck 8, but I bid for ...
