The Ship was in good condition I think there could have been more activities for kids, although they had the kids club the kids did quite like the hideaway. The food was amazing all of it was good I think the buffet could of had been a bit more elevated. The speciality dining was very good I would recommend the pistachio crème brûlée at the Tuscan Grill. The bars were very nice, the cocktail bar ...
Princess Cruise Island Princess
Southampton rt to Ireland, Iceland, & Greenland
August 12, 2022 16 nights
I love my Holland-America cruises and they rank at the top of my list. My time on the Island Princess could upset the order. She is an older, mid-size ship. She didn’t appear old but for a few reminders in my bathroom and the broken steam rooms in the thermal spa. I prefer smaller ...
My wife and I are well experienced cruisers with over (30) years of cruising. For transparency, we are loyal RCL guests but have no issue sharing good and bad experiences.
Our cruise departed from Copenhagen, Denmark on Voyager of the Sea's. We flew into Copenhagen a couple of days in advance and stayed over a day in Copenhagen after the cruise ended. We really waited until the week before ...
We have long planned to travel to the Scandinavian countries and Viking gave us a two week dream come true . We were wowed every day of site seeing! The tours and guides were outstanding! The sites we saw were amazing- One beautiful site after another. The touring could not have been any better! The food on board was wonderful! The selections of "destination" meals were always delicious! We ...
Having cruised multiple times but never on an Azamara ship, I was anxious to experience what she had to offer. I chose the Quest for the itinerary around Scotland. Even with the residual covid problems, crew in masks etc., the ship was fantastic.
I loved the smaller size of the ship, the upscale food and the way it was beautifully presented. Our captain was very friendly and often seen around ...
We chose this cruise because of Hurtigruten's reputation for providing the best and most authentic trip to the North Cape of Europe. We really liked the idea that we would be travelling on a "working boat" which was still an important link for many of the more remote communities on the Norwegian north coast. The trip was well beyond our expectations. The boat was very comfortable, with our ...
The Viking cruise line gives you a 10 out of 10 service I felt so special and that’s fantastic Cruise. They make you feel like you are number one. I also had special dietary needs and they went out of their way to make sure that I was satisfied above and beyond.
Also the excursions were very nice and organized as well. They also picked you up from the airport and brought you to your ...
We had heard good reviews about Viking from our friends so we decided to give it a try - we were on two prior cruises with other lines. We picked the Viking Homelands cruise after having two prior cruises cancelled due to Covid. We added Iceland as a pre-cruise excursion and were glad we did. We enjoyed all of our port of calls but wished Finland had been included on the itinerary. The ship was ...
We chose this cruise in 2019 after our first experience with Viking -- a River Cruise in Provence. We thought it would be a good way to see Scandinavia, where we had never been before. It would also have probably been our only chance to see St. Petersburg. After two covid cancellations we were pleased that we finally got to go, even without St. Petersburg (cancellation of which was a ...
My wife and I recently enjoyed a cruise on the Windstar’s Star Pride. We had traveled on board the Seabourn Pride many years ago and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Let me make something quite clear, I did not expect Seabourn’s standards of service and cuisine on board the Star Pride. (See footnote for an amusing bit of Seabourn history.) They are different cruise lines and work to ...
