This was a fabulous cruise. The ship was clean, comfortable and most importantly the food was outstanding! The staff were all helpful and friendly and no matter how stressed they were happy ( and sometimes singing)! It was about 5 days out and 5 days back strictly at sea. We found it relaxing but not seeing land or another ship that entire time could be somewhat daunting. The life boats were state ...
This was our 69th cruise but only second on Holland America.
The ship was nice but not as elegant or as well laid out as Celebrity Solstice and Edge class ships - which we love. We picked this cruise for the itinerary and the time of the year it was sailing.
Our most enjoyable meal was in the Pinnacle which we ate at twice. The service in there was top notch too. The dining room food was ...
We wanted to escape the Virginia cold, so we booked a 33 Day Cruise on Viking. It was our first Viking Cruise, and we were very impressed. The staff were excellent. Cornelia, the Cruise Director, was a sweetheart! After one morning visit to the Cafe Bar on Deck 1, young Ganesh had memorized our names, knew what we wanted and provided me a Cafe Con Leche and Blueberry Muffin for the next 30 days! ...
We joined the Sojourn in LA and disembarked in Taipei at the end of the second segment of the World Cruise 72 days later. Our last trip on the Sojourn had been the last two segments of the 2023 World Cruise from the Seychelles to Barcelona, and we now have about 200 days with Seabourn. We rated the 2023 voyage overall a 9.5/10. This years we would rate an 8.5+ to 9/10, still excellent. Why lower? ...
This was my 5th+ time cruising with NCL and this trip was for my honeymoon. In general, I enjoyed the trip, the ports & excursions were excellent. The onboard activities were just alright, the cruise director seemed nice but would make odd/ cringey comments, during the game shows it was often awkward for the guests on stage. I was also upset to see that most if not all of the exercise classes ...
This cruise did not and does not sail past the Na'Pali coast. NCL does not make this widely known and most of their agents will tell you it still does. You are in port in Kauai until 5:30 pm. This was the only major disappointment, except for the NCL app, which was useless. I don't recommend even trying to use this, as you will most likely incur extra internet charges unless you are an IT ...
I have been cruising with Carnival for the last 15 years and had good experiences with them up until 2024. We did the 15 day Hawaii cruise and were highly disappointed.
Food and Service on the Carnival Miracle was subpar at best and the ship had many things out of service like ice makers throughout the ships drink stations. We noticed that there was far less crew in the MDR and at the bars. ...
Everything went well from check in to cruising and ports except there was a day in one of the restaurants where the service was very slow. Entertainment was fun for the ones we attended (comedy show and singer). The ship was nice and clean and the bar service was very good. Staff was friendly and service overall was very good. Getting on/off the ship was easy in ports and everything was very ...
Chose our 1st Viking cruise from an advertised special on internet. Didn't appreciate had to pay for cruise in full at time of booking. Very inconvenient. The attention to detail definitely noted. The food very good and well presented.would have liked more variety of entertainment and more recent movies in state room. Staff was wonderful. Disappointed in excursions but narrators and drivers were ...
We very much enjoyed the Hawaiian Sojourn Cruise on Viking Star. Our PV2 Stateroom was lovely, clean, comfortable and spacious. There was plenty of closet space and drawers for all of our clothes. We loved the robes and slippers they provide. The bathroom is lovely with a heated floor and towel rack and has plenty of storage space as well. The staff and crew on Viking are exceptional, always ...
