Cunard Family Cruises Reviews

(Note: The headings in this review will be lines from this old Cunard travel film from the 1950s, "Getting there is half the fun", about a voyage on the original Queen Mary/Queen Elizabeth. Well worth a watch! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utH65UZ7w_w) Do you need or want to get to Europe or the United States? Does the idea of putting on a tuxedo fill you with excitement? Do you like perfect ...

We have a bucket list, nothing like going to Mars just a must do before the big one hits..Four of many things on it, eat sushi in Japan see Tokyo, find a reason to buy a Tux and cross the Pacific in style. While let me tell you, Cunard's Tokyo to Vancouver cruise was everything we hoped it could be an more. A beautiful ship kept spotlessly clean by hard working very pleasant staff. This is not a ...

We've sailed on Cunard and the QM2 16 times, mostly ocean crossings, and have enjoyed 39 cruises overall. We love the QM2 because of unique ocean liner status, the gorgeous public rooms, and the scheduled Atlantic crossings. We completed 2 other crossings since Covid and were concerned with all sorts of problems that had cropped up such as untrained staff and broken equipment. But for this ...

We don't fly so the QM2 is our way to return from Europe. This is the first time we have sailed with Cunard and I was very disappointed. First, the good parts, our cabin was very nice. We choose an inside cabin to try and settle our seasickness. We have a balcony cabin with NCL on the way over. The ship was clean and tidy. The bad, food selection was not good. The same kinds of food ...

We have sailed on 15+ voyages. We have sailed on Premium lines such as Celebrity, Princess, Holland America and now Cunard, we have sailed on a specialty brand, Star Clippers and Luxury brands, Crystal and Azamara, we are not new to sailing. I had a bucket list item to take a Transatlantic on a Cunard ship for over 40 years. I was diagnosed with stage four cancer, and realized, if I did not do ...

We wanted to see Japan but time and my wifes mobility was limited so a cruise was ideal. We enjoyed the cruise. 9 nights and 10 days around southern Japan. Pros: Speakers were great, food was above average. Breakfast was great! Excursions were great - check out the 'shotengai' [covered pedestrianized shopping streets.. only in Japan, really cool]. There is a nice one in Kochi ...

We chose this cruise because friends who live in the USA were boarding in New York and it was an ideal opportunity to meet up with them. The QM 2 is looking really tired but one can excuse that to some extent. We made a late booking so couldn’t get the cabin of our choice but really nothing to complain about our sheltered balcony cabin, plenty of storage and a comfy bed, our housekeeper, Hugo was ...

We chose the QM2 because husband, an engineer, wanted to experience the one and only Oceanliner. This was our first and only cruise on a Cunard ship. We actually were on the ship for 20 days—Southampton all the way to NYC. Every time we had breakfast or lunch in the buffet area it was a chaotic mess. And interestingly, we never received a survey from Cunard after completion of our cruise, so my ...

This was our 56th cruise and we know what a five star line is. This is not. It is maybe a 3.5 or 4.0 at best. While the ship itself is in beautiful condition and creates an aura of old style class, it has not kept pace with technology. Our cabin had a 24”TV and no working phone. Internet was very slow and the App you are asked to download is next to useless. It does’nt even have a chat ...

We choose to do a back to back (this was the first leg of the trip) on the Queen Elizabeth having previously (pre-pandemic) traveled on the Queen Mary on a transatlantic. We were a bit hesitant given the wonderful time we had on the Queen Mary, trying to manage expectations etc., but we were totally and completely overjoyed with the Queen Elizabeth. Cabin: Penthouse Queens Grill....spacious ...
