Traveling to these counties was somewhere we had never been. The actual cruise was terrific. The pre-trip was fine, nothing great. The guides and excursions were usually just an average. One in Vidin Bulgaria was terrific. Nothing in context with regards to history or inclusion (lots of churches and according to guides no synagogues, even when they were 1 or 2 blocks away) and we found them on ...
Party:
2 adults from England, aged 29 and 64, previously cruised twice with Marella (Dream and Explorer 2), with NCL 4 times (Jade, Breakaway and Prima), and 3 other cruises in the early 00s on now defunct lines. We don't have any disabilities and we didn't use the casino, so we can't comment on these aspects, and this was an adults only ship. The sailing is listed as 'Sail Three Seas', but we ...
Chose this cruise for the destination and the adults only.
We added the premium drinks package which was well worth it because besides premium spirits it included premium coffees. Standard cocktails tended to be made with cheap mixers and squash rather than fruit juice, so choose carefully.
We had a junior suite as we were travelling with friends and these were the only balcony cabins we ...
This was our first cruise so there's nothing to really benchmark it against but overall it was a wonderful stress free experience for my wife's big birthday.
The flight out to Dubrovnik from Bristol and transfer to the ship was hassle free and surprisingly smooth and the return was even better until we landed at Bristol.
We opted for a deck 8 balcony cabin with the premium drinks package but ...
We have been on all of the Marella ships at least once, however this was our first post Covid cruise. We did expect to see changes, and I have taken that into account when considering what to write. We are non drinkers, but do enjoy the food and entertainment that the ships usually offer.
Going out was straightforward as usual, however it takes longer at Dubrovnik due to having to go through ...
We chose this cruise based on locations and cost alongside of timing - we were in need of a getaway. We had been on this ship a while ago, for similar reasons, and had a good idea what to expect. I like sea days and there were few of them but, on reflection that was probably for the best.
To start off there is one thing that they do very well and that is getting there and back. The link up ...
Booked this cruise last minute in a Category A balcony, bed was amazing very comfortable , lots of storage space, balcony not very wide but adequate , bathroom ok, showers leak onto bathroom floors not just us as others said the same! Large bottles of shampoo etc which I hate as you have to unscrew tops to get enough out.
Breakfast , they have most things , only 1 girl to do eggs with 1 hot ...
To experience Super Yacht cruising! However the reality did not quite live up to the expectation!
One week before our cruise was due to depart, we were advised via our cruise travel agent that on the 2nd day of the 7 night cruise when we were in Solit Croatia the vessel would have to go into dry dock overnight for an urgent repair. This of course was very disappointing news, however we decided ...
We chose this cruise as we had visited and enjoyed several of these ports before and needed a sunny holiday.
Overall we were happpy with the cruise even though the weather was very hot for the time of year. i would recommend paying the supplement for the drinks package as the daily bottle of water came in very handy and the premium wines and spirits were woth the extra charge. The excursions ...
We booked this cruise through Kuoni, and they found us a Voyages Jules Verne cruise. There was a party of 19 (all English) and we were allocated Places on Croisi Europe cruise. The ship had 100 cabins and was just the right size for our first experience of cruising. On arrival at Dubrovnik Airport we were met by Ivor, our taxi driver who took our bags and drove us in a Mercedes to the port where ...
