Our cruise was the 7-night from Barcelona to Rome, which we chose to give us more time to explore those cities before and after the cruise. While we enjoyed our cruise on the Disney Magic, we noticed a quality decline from our previous cruise 18 months earlier (and from our Disney Wonder cruise last summer).
The food in particular was nothing special. The breakfast menu barely changed each ...
Our cruise on the Epic was ok. Cabin was not very clean on entry. Old dirty underwear in closet on life vest, upholstery was dirty on sofa bed. I wasnt a fan of the bath area. If someone was dressing or showering no one else could leave the room. Food was marginal. We tried O’Sheehans, Shanghai, Taste, Manhattan, and Garden cafe. Eating healthy with fresh veggie dishes was not easy. Sushi was ...
We picked this cruise based on the ports of call and could not be happier.
The disembark from Barcelona could not easier, took about 20 minutes and we were on the ship. We didn’t like the layout of the ship based on the lack of windows and no outside deck on the front of the ship.
BTW
Elevators on this ship-suck!
We booked most of our tours with Can’t Be Missed (CBM) and glad we ...
Family and Friends Cruise!
Epic is Very beautiful ship. There were a lot of hidden fees on NCL. They charge you extra for almost EVERYTHING!
Cabins were nice but very small. There was Barely enough room for two people to share the cabin. Not enough room in the cabin to pass by one another. The balcony was a nice size.
The food in the buffet was bland and nothing exciting. Basically had ...
This was my first and probably last time cruising with NCL. They close the majority of the bars and restaurants until 5pm while in any port. This is frustrating because you can only get certain drinks at certain bars. This was even more aggravating when you see staff getting off at the ports along with the guests...
Entertainment was great, and the food was delicious(when the restaurants ...
We were in Barcelona and Rome for 1 week prior to this cruise. We had the ship transfer from the airport. It was noon-ish and a bus gave us a complimentary Barcelona tour. Killing time before dropping us at the terminal.
We were delivered to the terminal and stood in line to drop our luggage in the rain.
Then we stood in line in the rain to go through security screening. The building is ...
We chose this cruise mainly because it was transportation to the ports we wanted to visit. We departed out of Barcelona and I would recommend time either before or after the cruise to explore this fabulous city. My husband and daughter both got very ill on this ship. In fact, there was at least one person from every party I spoke with who bacame very ill. The second day (day at sea) I pulled a ...
We had cruised with Carnival and Princess before and this year went upscale to a Viking Med. Ocean Cruise with our brother and wife as travel partners. The positives: 1) Food was excellent, 2) Less crowds with smaller passenger loads. The negatives: 1) Simple requests required escalation to management. We had a plumbing problem with the shower, special requests for honor bar drinks, that took ...
All the hype couldn’t wait to cruise this line. The ship was beautiful, the staff and service was wonderful. Embarkment was ok except when came on had to leave luggage in lounge and claim later did own transfers. The cabin was Good but I have had nicer on other ships. PV1...Dining was also good not spectacular. The open table with wine pairings was the best. Manfredos was nothing special. ...
We choose this cruise because it was advertised as 2 days in Barcelona and 2 days in Florence. We were very disappointed because several months before the departure we were notified that we were only going to be in Barcelona until 10:00 P.M. This left us 11 hours to see Barcelona after an all night flight! We did not get to see Florence at all because you had to add on an excursion to do that. ...
