Hassle free trip

Magellan

Europe - British Isles & Western

This was our 5th cruise so we had lots to compare the Magellan to. As it was cheaper than our usual cruises we didn't expect it to be as good as it was. We booked though a local bus company (J McGinley coaches) who ...

Underwhelmed by Iceland

Magellan

Europe - British Isles & Western

We booked this cruise as it seemed an ideal way to visit Iceland and the Faroe Islands, something a bit different. Another bonus for us was embarkation in Dublin - no flights! We were onto the ship in 5 minutes. ...

First time with cruise maritime voyages and was disappointed. I should have realized a European cruise line was not to the expectation of the US branded companies. Food was not even average and must have been ...

"Cheap and Cheerful"

Magellan

Europe - British Isles & Western

This was a 9 night trip around the UK (and one stop in France) so not sure why it is showing as a 1 night cruise! We booked only a couple of weeks before sailing - as the price was excellent. We had a Guarantee ...

Great itinerary, poor management

Magellan

Europe - British Isles & Western

Better management and training of staff is needed. They need to be proactive. CMV needs to take care of people and the ship. I was on the Magellan. Even the Captain was hiding. It was overtaken by a dance troupe ...

Great Itinerary, old ship poorly maintained

Magellan

Europe - British Isles & Western

I chose this cruise because it went to the island of Iona, a fascinating place where many ancient manuscripts were written, including the Book of Kells. The itinerary was great but the ship needs major updating ...

This ship has plumbing problems

Magellan

Norwegian Fjords

The Fjords are stunning, but the Magellan leaves a lot to be desired. Principally, the sewage system seems to be in permanent difficulty. We were by no means the only people to have to call for someone to fix the ...

Avoid if you want an enjoyable holiday - overpriced, underwhelming and dangerous

Magellan

Europe - British Isles & Western

Avoid at all costs. This was my 15th cruise, and my first - and last - with CMV. We chose it because it departed from Dublin. This was, in hindsight, the only real thing to recommend it. In short: terrible ...
