Canary Islands Family Cruises Reviews

This was back to back after visiting England, Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands. Weather was great and the shore excursions were to new and interesting places. We were spoiled by the entire crew. We had sailed with some senior officers in the past and that got us some added perks that were greatly appreciated. We participated in almost all trivia games. We booked a back to back to back ...

This is a long - detailed, "Log" style review. If you just want the summary, scroll on down to the bottom. I try to make my notes every day so things are fresh when written. Celebrity Silhouette 10-20-22 London – Miami Tuesday, October 18: Departure This was sure a whirlwind of a day! First off neither my wife nor I slept well, and I think for my part it was the concern that, despite ...

We chose this cruise for a little autumn sun in the Canary Islands and having been on Silhouette before in the Caribbean saw it as the perfect fit--or so we thought. The ship was full--perhaps too full and I would say the average age of cruiser was easily 70 plus. The positives; Room attendant was very very good as always and a credit to themselves. Cabana was nice. Elton John show ...

I'm not a snob, far from it, but some of the clientele need to take a long hard look at themselves. Our 6th cruise - RCCL x 4, MSC x 1 Cabin - Outside 7/10 Cabin Stewards 9/10 Main dining room 4/10 Sushi 10/10 Surf & Turf 10/10 Tapas 8/10 Islands 9/10 Bar 11 9/10 - smoked drinks fantastic, staff doing their best but still waiting for them to get to you. Squid & ...

We went on a 12 night cruise with my wife , daughter and 12 year old son. It was our 3rd cruise and previously went on the navigator 4 years ago. Like every body else you look at the reviews before you go on holiday and you get good and bad reviews depending on personal opinion . To start with this was the best cruise we have been on and do not understand how anyone can fault anything ...

This was our 7th cruise with MSC but the first on the Magnifica, which we choose because of the great itinerary to Casablanca, Santa Cruz, Madeira, Malaga, Marseilles and Genoa and the ability to spend 3 nights before the cruise in Barcelona a city we had not visited, but thoroughly enjoyed, a great start to the holiday. Embarkation in Barcelona was swift, seemingly only 400+ passengers were ...

Having cruised with RCCI since 2002, and now at Diamond membership level, we've noticed the deterioration in quality of service and amenities, however in 2021 we sailed twice on Anthem of the Seas. Even though the ship was only at 25% capacity, we had a pretty good time, the staff were friendly and cheerful and it was very pleasant. This prompted a decision to sail on Anthem again, to the ...

We returned from this 14 night Canaries cruise on 1st October. It was truly awful. We travelled to Southampton by coach with Intercruises. What a shambles. Coaches were pulling into Trowell services with no indication where they were going. We asked one coach driver if he knew when the coach for Ventura was expected to which he rudely replied that he wasn’t on duty. Eventually two arrived late, ...

Firstly, let me preface this by saying we are seasoned P&O cruisers. Our party consists of a multi-generational family with ages ranging from 27 to 83. Cruising has been our go to holiday of choice for several years now. We had booked this cruise over 3 years ago but thanks to the pandemic it had been cancelled and changed 3 times before we eventually got on board. Suffice to say, we were very ...

I don’t know where to start! I shall endeavor to keep this review as short as possible. I suspect that P&O are desperately trying to recoup some of their losses caused by the Covid-19 pandemic and hence I believe they have downgraded the whole cruising experience in order to save money. Key points as below, not in any particular order: 1. There is no afternoon tea in any of the main dining ...
