Hamburg to Europe Cruise Reviews

We chose this cruise because friends who live in the USA were boarding in New York and it was an ideal opportunity to meet up with them. The QM 2 is looking really tired but one can excuse that to some extent. We made a late booking so couldn’t get the cabin of our choice but really nothing to complain about our sheltered balcony cabin, plenty of storage and a comfy bed, our housekeeper, Hugo was ...

MSC DID WELL: the nightly entertainment was excellent. Jennifer Tierney had such a powerful voice. The ship singers and dancers were superb and well choreographed. The 3 tenors performance was exceptional. The room stewards and main dining room staff worked very hard to ensure we were well looked after. The pizza in the buffet was incredible...dare I say...addictive. I have lots of new weight I ...

I notice that none of the other reviews talk about money. I'm therefore assuming this ship and itineraries are for people seeking to explore certain destinations and will pay whatever it takes to do so. In that case I would echo the other excellent reviews. However, almost everyone I spoke to on this 2 day ship visit, said that they had a great time, but they really had to think about if ...

We were excited to see this cruise priced extremely low. We ended up paying in TOTAL $580 for 2 people for the cruise, gratuities included. We are from the US and flew out to Hamburg to depart. Boarding the ship was fairly quick and easy. The ports: We had to exit the ship about 1 1/2 hours later than anticipated in Rotterdam which did stress us out as we had the shortest time allotment at ...

We booked a 8 day cruise to the caribbean directly through their website and they wouldn't even honor their own advertisement of kids under 17 sail free. so we ended up paying full price for our 13yr old daughter. Then when my suitcase arrived to the room, one of the wheels were broken and dangling off the bottom. The food on the buffet was very inconsistent. some days were ok. and other ...

our thoughts and experiences on a Riviera ceuise to the medieval towns , from Nuremberg to Mainz at the end of May The ship was beautiful, cabin was very well equipped and comfortable . Crew were very helpful and efficient Food was adequate , would have like some german dishes especially asparagus which was in high season. Plates of hot food were often cold and the hot food was not ...

Unfortunately, summarizing our experience on board the Queen Mary 2 we are more than astonished about: • the threatening level of hygiene in our Britannia club cabin, noise pollution as such as the public spaces of the ship (see picture report enclosed) • the threatening health risks on board due to a lack of maintenance (see pictures enclosed) • the missing management attention on board ...

I am an experienced cruiser. Now I finally decided to try the iconic QM2. I admit I had quite high expectations, unfortunately not all of them were met. PROS The embarkation process in Hamburg was very quick. There were no queues at all, it took us maybe 15 minutes to get on board. The dining experience on board was excellent. The service in the Princess Grill restaurant was very ...

We booked the Hurtigruten Expedition from Hamburg to the North Cape on Otto Sverdrup. It was an exciting trip under stormy conditions along the Norwegian coast. However, the captain made us feel safe by adjusting the schedule to the weather conditions. The ship was extraordinarily strong and we felt safe all the time. Both the scientific programs on board and on shore gave plenty of ...

TUI Mein Schiff Cruises is a nice cruise line, but not for everyone. I had the pleasure of participating in a historic event. The July 24 2020 cruise aboard the Mein Schiff 2 was the first large ship cruise after the coronavirus lockdown in the world. Here I must admit that the TUI did a great job with the new safety measures. Muster Drill was conducted in small groups, the crew checked the ...
