I GOT SICK ON THE SECOND DAY OF THIS CRUISE! And I'm still sick!
Thank God we took a 2 day private tour of Iguazu Falls before getting on...or it would have been a bad time overall..
The second night onboard, after leaving the Crown Grill, we went to the Magic Show..I saw clouds of smoke come down from the top center of the theatre..
I started coughing w/ a tickle in my throat for the ...
Somehow I have managed to delete my very long review twice so I'll just make is a short as possible.
Herded like cattle at embarkation.
No bath towels for two days because they could not discharge gray water. So my arrival was a surprise to them.
Could not enjoy the expensive aft balcony as it smelled like rotting food garbage the whole 19 days. Could not enjoy the aft view because it ...
I really don't have many good things to say about this ship ..I did enjoy the ports .. it was nice to 'escape' from the ship. However,there were far too many sea days where we could not get out on deck due to the weather. When the weather did improve, 2 of the pools were closed for maintenance!!
I have been one Princess cruise before, which I enjoyed, but will not go with Princess again ..in ...
We chose this cruise because of the 7 night land tour of Peru that can be taken at the start or end of the cruise. The Land Tour was fabulous, great hotels, lovely people and lovely food, magnificent scenery. The Cruise from Valpraiso to Beunos Aires started on the wrong foot, the port workers were on strike, so boarding was a fiasco, huge long queues, nowhere to sit down and temperatures in the ...
We chose this cruise because we wanted to sail around the horn and prior to this experience, we have cruised Princess on 10 different cruises so we felt we would receive the same standard of service we were used to. Embarkation was unorganized and there was no advantage to being Platinum, Elite or Suite passengers...everyone was funneled into a large room and then waited in line to get from one ...
We had been looking at a Buenos Aires to Santiago Chile cruise for about five years and decided on this cruise due to Princess' perceived reputation of being more upscale than other lines. We were disappointed at almost every turn.
To begin with, we embarked a day late in Buenos Aires due to the death of a passenger in route from Rio. However, when we (a party of six) arrived at the designated ...
As part of my wife’s and my 50th wedding anniversary celebration, we planned a “bucket list” cruise around South America. We planned and reserved the trip in September 2015, while aboard an Alaskan cruise on the Pacific Princess. We sailed on a 14-day cruise on the Crown Princess leaving out of Rio de Janeiro on 04 January 2017, ending up in Valparaiso / Santiago, Chile. The first half of our ...
Good itinerary. Heard good things about it. But the ship itself was not in good shape. There were big stains in the carpet. There were dents in the hallway wall. Dingy.
We marked out preference for table of 8. We were put at a table by ourself. The fix for that was poor. There was a table of 6, but 3 were a sub-group of old friends. A group of 8 would have minimized that social difficulty. The ...
Embarked on MV Crown Princess on a 27-day cruise from Los Angeles to Montevideo, I had been driven away from poolside by the thumping music. So I found a deck chair in a quiet region, stretched out happily, and opened my book. Presently, a cruise line goombah appeared and demanded $40 to use the chair for the day.
“You’re kidding.”
“This is a quiet area.”
“I know. That’s why I sat ...
We chose this cruise purely because of it's destinations and the fact that they had a kids club as we were travelling with our 12 year old son.
Embarkation was a total nightmare - preference was given to those that are elite/gold status which 80% of the passengers appeared to be so the entire boarding lounge was literally long long queues.
We had a Mini Suite deck 9 - room was ideal for the ...
