"Our first time with Cunard, we chose this cruise mainly for the timing and reasonable price. We were disappointed we couldn't afford a balcony cabin, but needn't have worried (see cabin review).
We booked direct..."Read More

1-10 of 69 Europe - Western Mediterranean Queen Victoria Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise Reviews
Our 2018 Cunard cruise was a short, 3 day trip trying out the Britannia Club restaurant on Queen Victoria, so our last experience of the Britannia restaurant was in 2017 on Queen Mary 2. Having found that experience pretty disappointing (see my review on here), I was hopeful that the improvements suggested by our Club dining last year might have also worked their way into the main restaurant. I am ...
We went on the Queen Victoria Voyage du Vin cruise for 14 days September 2019 and in our opinion everything was better than last year. The Britannia Restaurant food was beautifully presented and the service was excellent. Thank you to Olesha and Victor.
The Lido Restaurant was very good and the staff were very helpful and efficient. The place to go for delicious omelettes to order.

We have been in the QG on Cunard many times and always enjoyed ourselves, so chose a Q4 cabin again. The cabin is spacious, with a lovely large balcony for lounging in the sun, separate bath and shower, and gorgeously comfortable beds. The pillow Concierge service enabled us to have goose down pillows, and they had complied with my request for blankets rather than duvets, which I had made in ...
This 14 night voyage is my 13th cruise with Cunard and it is a few years since I have written a review. However, as this cruise was one of Cunard’s ‘special event’ and themed voyages and the longest single cruise I have done, I think its time to share my thoughts again. At only 26 and 29 years old my husband and I are quite a bit younger than the stereotype Cunard passenger, however we enjoy the ...
I went on this ship with my grandmother as she loves cruising.
First impressions were good. The cabin was nice and the food was good.
I enjoyed the stops at Barcelona and Gibraltar.
Time on the ship however was where it slipped.
There was barely any activities or anything to do on the ship. The entertainment wasn't worth watching. This made days at sea unbearable. We spent most of the ...
We booked a guarantee obstructed view cabin. Never again. We were allocated cabin 4076. This was right over the state of the Queen's ballroom. The noise started every night at eight and continued till half twelve. Loud base beat and music vibrated wall and floor. Only suitable if you like to stay up late.
Food was very good and plenty of choice.
Entertainment was excellent particularly on ...
This was a one way fly cruise, 10 nights Southampton to Barcelona. I booked a one way car hire to Southampton, cruise only with Cunard and booked hotel and then flights back to Cardiff. It all worked really well and I would happily do something similar if Cunard reintroduce fly cruises in the future. I booked an extra suitcase on the flight (approx £30) so there was no issue with ...
It has to be said, we were apprehensive about the way Cunard is expressed as being for the upper class, the snobs and the like. well there are a few on board, but the vast majority were like you and me, worried hard for what we have and want to enjoy the fruits, as we grow older and being aware.... there are no pockets in a shroud and no safe in the coffin.
The ease on which you board the ship ...
This was our first cruise and had been looking forward to it for such a long time. Overall we enjoyed it and ensured we had a good time.
However, our experience was marred by poor service on a number of occasions along with indiscretions from two employees who were managers.
Whilst the good old British class system is still alive and kicking, you don't expect it from the crew !!!

As an experienced cruiser with Cunard (34 cruises) I feel able to comment,
Firstly I was travelling in Princess Grill. The cabin was fine albeit needing a new carpet or at least a good wash, the attendant was helpful and a good worker
The ship itself was clean and tidy in all public areas and a credit to the brand
The shops whilst shiny held a lacklustre stock but had a friendly staff to ...
