Good ports - subpar stateroom

We chose this cruise because of the stops in Iceland and Greenland, so the other ports were a bonus. The ports were good overall, but I would look carefully at the excursions offered from the cruise line and investigate ones on your own. We used Saga tours for tours in Iceland and Greenland. They did a good job overall, they were with small groups and we enjoyed that. The only problem is make ...

First time for RCL to go to Greenland. Plus Iceland and other ports. Embarcation was fastest of any cruise we have been on. Very satisfied with all acpects of the ship. Weather prevented use of most outside facilities and activities. The "at sea" days were spread out ,which was good. Only negative was that the food in the main dining was average at best. About 60% of the menu was the same ...

Two years ago, we found ourselves cruising the Baltic on the Serenade. During that sailing, they began advertising for their fall crossing from Copenhagen to Boston. It looked intriguing, so we kept our eyes peeled for future crossings. Cut to 2017, and they released our itinerary with the addition of Greenland! We jumped at the chance to book it, and we were not disappointed! What was ...

Having sailed with RCCL many times I expected a great cruise on a grrat ship. Sailed out of Copenhagen. The Seranade of the Seas is in dire need of extensuve updating and repairs. Windows in the Safari Club lounge haf 1" of water between the panes. It had formed into algae. Water leaking in windows in the Windjammer. Casino tobacco smoke was not ventilated properly spilling in to public areas. ...

Well done Serenade! We are experienced cruisers, but this is our first Royal Caribbean cruise. We were pleasantly surprised. In brief: The Ship: Overall it’s beautiful, clean, and well maintained. Embarkation, muster, ports, and disembarkation all went smoothly. We found the wine bar on Deck 6 to be a good meeting point for our small group excursions in the mornings. The Cabins: We had ...

I choose this cruise only because of it itinerary only. It is the only cruise line that offer 3 days in St Petersburg. Now that I have gone, I think 2 days will be enough which mean many other cruise lines to choose from. I have been with Princess cruises, Celebrity cruises and P&O. I have never experience a cruise which just want to push the customers to buy and buy. First, throughout the ...

Chose this cruise line because of the ports and was not disappointed there at all. Did not like the the mis-information by the staff, their confusion as to what is going on and where...as the same question of three customer service reps and received three different answers. Did not like the constant "hawking" of buying water, the drink pkg, and meal upgrades. Did not like being charged for the ...

We cruised with 8 other friends on the ship. All of us in our 60s except for one couple's daughter and friend in their 20s. We picked this cruise and itinerary because it spent 3 days in St. Petersburg so we could travel to Moscow for one day. I particularly wanted to see Red Square. And none of us had previously traveled in this part of Europe. We have cruised several times before but not on ...

70th Birthday Celebration traveling with my wife and 16 year old son. We have never been to the Baltic Sea or Eastern European region. The journey was very cultural and interesting to all of us. What was so outstanding were the people we interacted with, on board as well as , those on shore. St. Petersberg, Russia was a bit to much of the same type of excursions to opulent palaces and ...

Itinerary, the main reason for the cruise. It was disappointing. Next time we will choose a different cruise line. It looks like the cruise lines main objective is to secure as much money as possible from the passengers. We have never been on a cruise where one has to pay for shuttle services from berthing jetty to city centres. The speciality restaurants onboard are expensive and not very good. ...
