This is our second cruise with Regent, we embarked in Istanbul and went (are still going) around the Eastern Mediterranean.
The butler and steward are fantastic they always have a smile and are super helpful, nothing we have asked for is too much work for them.
The food was mostly ok, not wow but ok, we did have one bad meal - lunch at the compass rose, the burger was undercooked, potatoes ...
Hi I have done 10 cruises with other cruise lines but mainly MSC. I had to do this cruise to use up a deposit for a previous cruises cancelled due to COVID. So Celebrity is 5 star well I did not get that feeling at all and the shows by the entertainment crew were not really up to standard. I must add the acrobats and rope work we're good. Food was like any other cruise but the Buffet was ...
We have completed our 20th cruise, fourth on Oceania.
After sailing on 11 different lines, Oceania remains our favorite line.
Service was exceptional . No request was refused. Very prompt responses at all venues during breakfast, lunch and dinner. Our cabin steward Daria was excellent. Always friendly, everything refilled promptly, cabin always in very good shape. No issues to get coffee, ...
I am sorry to say that in spite of fabulous food, a wonderful cabin and food crew, and amazing staterooms, I would never go on an Oceania Cruise again. The management staff (with the exception of the concierge) as non-existent. The support staff at the desks were not only rude and uncaring, they would not go one step further than absolutely necessary to correct a horrible situation. Things ...
The cruise it's self was excellent, the staff very attentive and the food good. I really couldn't fault the cruise, HOWEVER, I very nearly didn't go as my experience of the UK Customer Service department was utterly appalling and I thought if this is the way the cruise will unfold I wasn't interested. Facilities on the ship were good but limited, the itinerary was excellent and they obviously had ...
We were excited about this cruise, going round southern island. The embarkation was slow.
We had been on Sky Princess in April which was fabulous so we were comparing both ships, and no comparison. My first food experience on board was lunch, a Caesar salad, at a small restaurant on 8th floor, which consisted of a bowel of lettuce leaves with no dressing and 2 small pieces of chicken. The ...
This was our first cruise post Covid, so we can only compare this to 12+ pre-covid cruises with lines such as P+O, Celebrity, RCL, Princess and Cunard. Please bear this in mind when reading.
Embarkation
Slowest ever. Took 2 hours stood in queues (security then Ship enrolment). Could have opened additional security gates and used tickets for embarkation like previous cruises. We were ...
Not the best cruise ,done Royal Carribean few times ,and Tui this is by far the worst one
Food is awful and not enough space to move about in the buffet with their trolleys and electric wheelchairs
No where is the food as good as Royal Carribean for choice or quality of food ,thought Tui food on offer in buffets was basic , this is much worse
Don't cater that well if you ...
We had already spent a week in Germany, so this cruise originated near the Germany-Austria border and continued east through Austria, Slovakia, and terminated in Budapest, Hungary. This was our first river cruise.
The positives:
1) beautiful ship, with luxurious public spaces
2) first class accommodations (the cabin was much larger than an ocean cruise ship)
3) excellent service ...
NCL canceled Sardina, spent 2 days at Florence port which does not allow for liqour to be served. Food was disgusting and cheap, employees seemed crabby and overworked, entertainment was limitted and poor quality. Passengers appeared to cough more frequently as cruise went on, then we returned home tested covid positive. Breakfast at all restaurants was served cold and of poor quality, eggs over ...
