Norwegian Getaway Cruise Reviews

I chose this cruise based on port. I traveled by bus from the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania. The transportation I arranged was with Trans Bridge Bus line. It was effortless to and from the pier. The only thing I would have improved is there is no area to wait at the pier for Return transportation to arrive. I had to wait outside about an hour an a half in colder temps. The embarkation and ...

What we liked - 1. Overall Haven experience onboard was good 2. Embarkation/Demarkation was quick and hassle free 3. Priority seating at shows and restaurants 4. Amazing room steward, he was better than our butler What we disliked - 1. Our room "Haven Penthouse Suite" was creaking whenever the ship was rolling. We had to complain to the Haven guest service and they sent ...

Booked a European cruise that sailed out of Southhampton in October. First the good. The meals were good. The Garden Cafe buffet was actually good with a variety and selection that pleased multiple tastes. We also enjoyed the the food at Cagney's and Moderno. They make good food for specialty diners. The crew were very friendly and attentive to doing great service in housekeeping, food, ...

This was our sixth transatlantic cruise, the second on the Getaway and our eighth overall on an NCL vessel. Our cruise and the Getaway were par-for-the-course meeting expectations. No surprises or unexpected disappointments...It's one of the big ships with all the competitive bells & whistles. The staterooms & bathrooms are clean, somewhat spacious, comfortable and practical. A shortage of ubs ...

NCL has been the company of choice in the past due to it's freestyle policy and overall quality and after a patient wait following 3 cancelled cruises due to covid and the war in the Ukraine we were eager to sail again. Over this time costs have inevitably gone up as have the gratuities (more than 100% since our last cruise in 2017). Now we more or less expected this under the current climate but ...

I chose this cruise because of the ports it advertised to visit: Paris, Bordeaux, Brussels and Amsterdam, also included Hamburg. Once I booked and tried to get excursions, I was told they were full, no longer available. For Paris, I had to book with an outside travel site because they had nothing available. During the cruise, they canceled on the actual day 3 excursions to Brussels, Hamburg and ...

I have been on quite a few cruises and never had poor enough experiences to feel the need to write a review to inform others of what they might be getting into, until now. With other cruise lines, they personalize your experience and make you feel welcomed aboard like you are part of their family and they have been expecting you. This was not the case with Norwegian. They could NOT care less about ...

We chose this cruise based on the ports visited. We have cruised many times before but this was our first NCL experience. We opted for a suite within the Haven which was the best decision we made. The suite was comfortable and spacious, our butler Bernie was always reachable but not in your face. We enjoyed the perks such as being escorted on and off the ship, also priority seating and ...

Honestly I had high hopes for this cruise but after, I can say I am beyond disappointed. From the activities provided all the way down to not being on time for port, and then canceling our last day. All the fun activities you have to PAY for, even though you bought the tickets to be on the ship. The free open activities consist of the ropes course and water slides/pool, which are outside and since ...

I chose this cruise because I had previously sailed with NCL "Spirit" and had a wonderful time. The ship and the crew were terrific. This time - on the plus side the crew, as always were a delight. NCL have some of the most wonderful crew members. There were plenty of dining areas and the food was acceptable The price I paid, as a solo traveller in an inside cabin, was a real ...
