Variety Cruises Reviews

I just got back from sailing with them, and I had a wonderful time sailing around on the Classical Greece cruise with variety. We stopped at a lot of great Islands and ports and saw a little bit of all the best parts of Greece. Everything from the ship to the food and the destinations were fantastic. My favorite stop was the small island of Kythira which was stunning, but all the stops were ...

For the second time we had the opportunity to take a great trip with variety cruises. After the seychelles last year we took part in the classical greece tour. Variety picked us up directly at athens airport and drove to Piräus port. From the first moment we felt very comfortable on board. The excursions were very well organized and carried out very well. We also want to highlight the ...

We have just completed 7 nights in the Society Islands Tahiti (June 2023). We had a fantastic time . Staff, food and cabins were all better then expected. Comfortable beds, very tasty food and excellent excursions to some awesome snorkelling and cultural destinations . We three Australians loved the laid back, friendly vibe on the yacht! Staff were awesome from the Captain to the galley staff. ...

My travel agent recommended the Treasure of Costa Rica & Panama cruise when I mentioned wanting to travel to Costa Rica. I was unsure about taking a cruise as I had been on two large ship cruises before, and they seemed crowded on board and with booked excursions. She had been on a Variety Cruise before and assured me it was different, so I decided to give it a try. I ended up having an ...

I chose this cruise based on the pictures on their website, and also the itinerary, the ship looked gorgeous, almost like new, sleek and modern. I was very surprised when first boarding to see stains all over the seat cushions, I wasn't sure if it was oil or grease, and wearing light colored shorts I was VERY reluctant to sit on them. The wood tables just looked worn, unbefitting such a fine ...

My husband and I expected this cruise to be a delightful way to visit Panama and Costa Rica national parks and beaches. It was not!! The ship is tired and needs a lot of rust removal.The engines ran nonstop and the sails were never raised even briefly for pictures. The crew was mostly friendly and eager to please, but the captain was totally uninterested in the trip and would not even say ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary and hoping the weather in September would still be hot. Due to high winds in the Aegean, the ship sailed to the Ionian Sea, which was fine. The weather was spectacular, the ports we visited were great, we had a lot of fun. The problem with the ship and the crew was evident after a few days - the ship is starting to show its age and the captain said on the ...

Friends recommended this cruise to us and it didn't disappoint. We absolutely loved it and we met the most fabulous people who we will hopefully see again one day. We were the only Australian/ New Zealanders on the cruise, there was a huge variety of nationalities, couples and singles from America, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Spain, Argentina, England, Scotland, we met a few really fabulous ...

The phenomenal staff made this trip the dream trip for which we were hoping. Our trip was held in May 2022 when Covid was raging, and the United States were requiring a negative Covid test for reentry. Due to this, there were only twenty-five passengers on our ship, and many of the staff told us that this was one of the very first trips they had had since the pandemic began. The long hiatus ...

Booked this cruise before the pandemic and thought I would never get to go but I did and it was truly amazing. The islands we visited were stunning and the captain and the crew were wonderful, we were made to feel so special and nothing was too much for the team on board. The food was incredible and my wife is Vegetarian and they exceeded her expectations in every meal. The attention to detail ...
