Bangkok (Laem Chabang) to Asia Regent Seven Seas Cruise Reviews

We had previously been on Regent Cruises, the last on the Splendour and splendid it was. Sadly our enthusiasm for Regent was curbed somewhat when full of expectation, we boarded the Explorer touted by Region as the worlds most expensive cruise ship. The checking in was a disaster with guests having to queue for 2-3 hours to get their boarding passes on be allowed onto the cruise. Once on board ...

A great itinerary in Southeast Asia. This was my fifth Regent cruise, and found the overall experience very good, but slipped from past Regent Cruises. Ship recently refurbished and very attractive. Would have rated it excellent, but for the dining experience, which I found to have slipped compared to previous Regent cruises. Menu in the Compass Rose was adaquate, not particularly creative. ...

My wife and I have been to most of Europe and South America, but never to Southeast Asia. We had sailed on the Voyager about five years ago and were eager to set it since its refurbishment in 2016, and a cruise from Bali to Hong Kong looked good. It was! The ship looks wonderful, and our cabin (853) was beautiful in an excellent location. The cabin attendant kept it looking clean and fresh ...

This is our fourth Regent cruise and first on the Voyager. We took the pre cruise tour to Chiang Mai. The air included was basic economy and when we arrived in Chiang Mai the tours were decent. The dinner we were served with local dance was not a Thai dinner. Getting back to Bangkok and to the ship was efficient but we arrived to the ship just prior to setting sail. Our room was across from ...

We are fairly devoted to Regent, and this six week geographic extravaganza -- from Bangkok to Athens -- fulfilled our every expectation with style and ease. It was a pleasure throughout. The cruise was calm, ordered, and smoothly fine. (Also the case with RSSC direct reservation service before and after -- in the person of Mr. Aldo Ampuero.) The crew from our butler Raj up and down the ...

We booked this cruise for our 25th wedding anniversary and all in all it was a wonderful trip, a trip of a lifetime. We saw so many beautiful and wonderful places, and met many wonderful people. Our Regent experience was, with a few notable exceptions, as good as the one 7 years ago in the Mediterranean. I will bullet point the positive and negatives below, and have, of course, given these to ...

Had high hopes as many people have raved about Regent. Even those (titanium level) cruisers agreed that this was not anywhere near the service and quality they advertise. There was a lot of talk that since Norwegian has taken over, Regent has tried to cut costs and service has gone downhill. I can't speak to this as it was our first cruise with them, but it was not worth the high price ...

It was billed as the 'Journey to Nirvana', which, according to Buddhist teachings, is 'a place of perfect peace and happiness'. But by the time we had reached Hong Kong after 17 days on Regent Seven Seas Voyager cruise from Bangkok in February 2016, the luxury five-star brand had lost many of its disciples. Among the myriad problems for 677 passengers (365 Americans, the rest from the UK, ...

This was our third, and last, cruise aboard the Voyager. It seems that new owner Norwegian is determined to bring Regent down to its level. While not terrible, dining room service was nowhere near the standard of other cruises. Two and a half hours for dinner with minimal wine! Thirty minutes for dessert when we told the waiter we wanted to get to the 9:30 show! Ten minutes to get a glass of iced ...

We've cruised more than 50 nights on Regent but this will be our last trip with them. It's obvious that their new owner NCL (Norwegian Cruise Lines) is more concerned about their bottom line than on providing guests with top-notch experiences. The excursions were poor - whether one of the "free" ones or ones you pay extra to join. Group sizes are too large, which impacted the pace of the tour ...
