1-10 of 178 Princess Caribbean Princess Cruise Reviews for Family to the Panama Canal & Central America from Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
My husband and I have been cruising about once a year since our honeymoon over 40 years ago. Princess is one of our favorite cruise lines. We’d been on six Princess cruises before this one, including two on the CB (Southern Caribbean in 2013 and British Isles in 2017). We obviously love cruising, and our mindset is to enjoy the many positive aspects of cruising and not let the glitches ruin things ...
I have been on several cruises in the Caribbean but I chose this one for the itinerary of Panama Canal and South America.
I was pleasantly surprised how fast embarkation process was, no wonder since I spent hours downloading all necessary documents and photos on the Princess App beforehand. My only complaint there was no wi-fi at the Terminal at Ft. Lauderdale so I could not open the App. I ...
This 10 day Panama Canal cruise was our 59th Princess cruise. Although we have also sailed on two other cruise lines, we keep coming back to Princess. The Caribbean Princes is 20 years old. but well maintained and clean. There always workers wiping painting, and sweeping to keep it that way. The only negative item due to age is only one dual electrical outlet in your main portion of your cabin and ...
I'm an Elite passenger with Princess and have been a strong supporter of the line for many years. I chose the cruise mainly due to the dates as it was one of only a few offerings in March for 10+ days.
Though the staff couldn't have been nicer, nor more professional, the ship itself suffers from some areas of neglect and Princess would be wise to make the needed upgrades. Just to name a few, ...
We recently returned from the 10 night Panama Canal cruise on the Caribbean Princess leaving from and returning to Fort Lauderdale. After reading some of the prior reviews, I was initially wary about going on this ship. I am writing this review to let people know about our terrific experience. The cruise couldn't have gone better. The ship and the cabin were kept very clean. The food was ...
Hi going on a Panama Cruise is quite limiting in the choice of ships you can take.
We did chose a mini balcony suite on the Port side of the Carribbean Princess to see the best views of the canal crossing. They said the boat was renovated but it certainly could use another renovation, its just not modern or have any notable modern rooms or artwork. The balcony advertised to be much larger is ...
This was our 17th cruise on many different lines (Carnival, Celebrity, Cunard, Holland America, NCL and Royal Caribbean) and wanted to try Princess to see if it’s any better.
We flew from Ontario to Ft. Lauderdale the day before the cruise and stayed at the Hampton Inn Airport North which was great.
Embarkation/Disembarkation –The embarkation was delayed by almost 2 hours due to a Norovirus ...
We chose this cruise because 4 of the 6 people in our group had never seen the Panama Canal. The itinerary wasn't all that great but the canal was the highlight of the trip. The first stop was Falmouth, Jamaica. Nothing much to report here since we had all been to Jamaica before so got off walked around and back on again. Next stop was Cartagena, had never been here so booked a hop on hop off ...
To put this review in perspective, just five weeks before this cruise we'd been to a river cruise on the Nile in Egypt. So any review after that may pale in comparison. That being said, this cruise was very nice in where the ship stopped for tours.
We've been on a cruise to the Caribbean before but to different stops along the way. This cruise is listed as a ten day trip which is true enough ...
Been a while since going on a cruise, first solo cruise in my 67 years and it was better than expected with a bump or two. Panama canal is an amazing feat of large scale engineering.
Food is very good, entertainment was the best I have had in maybe 20 cruises in my life. Singing and dancing isn't my favorite but the production numbers I really enjoyed. Lots of corny events on at sea days, from ...
