We have wanted to sail the Adriatic Sea and visit the countries bordering.We wanted to sail during a time which was suitable for our weather preferences. We chose a great time! Having traveled with Viking before, we wanted to do this with Viking. The staff was uniformly courteous, helpful and always wanted to know if there was anything they could do to make our trip better. Typical Viking!The boat ...
We are a family of four whose cruise had been delayed by two years with Covid restrictions. We were nervous pre cruise as we had to take Lateral Flow Tests before boarding. The process at embarkation was seamless. A lot had to be done on the app which some passengers may find daunting. Although the ship is not one of the new all bells and whistle ships it was beautifully kept just large enough ...
We have sailed on Valiant Lady once before, on the inaugural sailing down to the Canaries in March. As many of the reviews have alluded to, it was blighted by several issues, not all of which were Virgin Voyages fault. Despite these issues, we thoroughly enjoyed that voyage and were very pleased to be offered a 'free' Mediterranean Cruise in compensation. Based around the itineraries on offer we ...
I chose this VV cruise for my 60th birthday celebration with 2 long-time friends because it is an adults only cruise. The ship was impeccably clean, the staff were almost all absolutely amazing and our Brilliant Suite was very large and fit all three of us comfortably. The only negative experience was on the morning we arrived. Our flight arrive in Barcelona at 6:30 am so we were at the port by ...
A few facts to start with..
Azamara Journey, France Intensive. Barcelona to Nice over seven nights stopping at seven ports. Three tendered ports, the remaining docked. All docked ports were in best berth in that particular port. No requirement for a free bus into town at any location. Perfect seamanship, the Journey arrived and departed exactly on schedule each day. Captains broadcasts kept to ...
We did a Viking river cruise and loved it. We thought this was an interesting itinerary and wanted to try an ocean cruise. It was wonderful, but we did decide that we enjoy the atmosphere of the smaller ships more. We also liked the ease of touring when the ship was docked. We didn't enjoy long bus rides to get to the sights or lack of free time during included tours. The buffet was good and well ...
We are a family of 6, mom, dad, 19, 17, 6, 3.
July 24-31 BCN-BCN
We had two cabins 10087 and 10088. Booked flights through NCL with one free flight included per cabin. Since we had two cabins, they actually booked flights for each cabin separately and our family was split up 3 and 3 on separate flight itineraries! I was shocked that they would do this, but when I called (on hold for an ...
Even though this is the oldest of the EDGE class ships it is my favourite. I think it must be the staff on the EDGE make all the difference. .
Not much to add to my last review of the EDGE, apart from....
If you are not happy with anything on the ship from dining to entertainment don't moan about it, or accept it, do something about it. In nearly all circumstances, the staff on the ship ...
On our first evening in suite 844 the vibration was dreadful. The entire bathroom vibrated, as did the bedroom. Worst of all was the bed vibrating. Our entire bodies shook. It was distressing and made us both feel almost sick. First thing in the morning my husband reported the matter, but somehow it was not seen as a complaint! After three visits to reception, we eventually got a member of ...
