Boston to the Bahamas Cruise Reviews

The Ocean Explorer is a small ship that has the potential to offer a wonderful vacation, but Vantage Travel is hopeless. We sailed out of Nassau Bahamas for the Atlantic Seaboard trip - ending in Boston. Vantage required us to get a PCR test within 48 hours of boarding that cost us $350 (even though the Bahamas and every other cruise line would take the much cheaper antigen test results) and then ...

Reading the negative reviews is interesting - my husband and I had a great trip! Of course we were bummed we didn't go to Bermuda, but we'd been watching the weather so the itinerary change wasn't unexpected. I was just glad to be heading somewhere warm! The seas were a little rough but we took Dramamine each night and fared just fine, even though I'm a little prone to getting seasick. My husband ...

This was my first time cruising on Norwegian Cruise Lines and my first time cruising during hurricane season. Probably will not do either again... First the season/weather - yes, the day we left port in Boston (10/17/14) a full blown hurricane was scheduled to hit Bermuda so we were told that we were being rerouted to the Bahamas. Since I know this is always a possibility, I wasn't upset about it ...

Our first disappointment was 3 hours prior to departure when we were informed that we would be going to the Bahamas instead of our original itinerary which was Bermuda. This was the only reason I booked NCL. The reason was hurricane Gonsalvez that had hit Bermuda (perhaps I could excuse them for this). Having been on other cruise lines, I have to say the service was mediocre to sub-standard. ...

This was our very first cruise. We booked the adventure three weeks prior to departure based on the fact it was sailing out of Boston and close to home, which eliminated an air fair cost. Weeks and days up until departure friends and family kept reminding us that Bermuda was about to take a direct hit by Hurricane Gonzalo. Watching the weather, it seemed the day we were to arrive in port, Gonzalo ...

NCL DAWN, Boston to Bermuda, umm, never mind, Boston to Bahamas, October 17, 2014 This was our third time sailing NCL Dawn (the second time in five months). Can you tell we love this ship, the crew and Bermuda. The week before our cruise, Bermuda got hit with two storms and with another one bearing down on the island we knew we were probably going to get diverted. We were praying that we were to ...
