Totally disappointed

Review for a Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise on Norwegian Epic

6-10 Cruises • Age 40s

I wish I would’ve googled this ship before we booked, but I guess I gotta learn somehow. This was our first cruise with Norwegian and everyone was ranting and raving about how great everything is. The only thing they had going for them was embarkment and disembarking, that was super easy as long as you know what you are doing. Our room had a hull balcony, which is fine because I knew what those ...

We chose this cruise to visit Morocco and several ports we had not been to but the Moroccan ports were cancelled at the last minute. Although this was a complete overreaction by the cruise line and we were disappointed it was followed by many other disappointments. The food onboard is nowhere as good as that offered precovid, ie some cold dishes and the flavour and variety has deteriorated. We had ...

1 -At the pier, we were directed to the wrong line to begin check-in (not a good omen). There were 6 stations, where each NCL person had a paper printout of 2,000 people to flip through to find our names (oh,boy). 2 - Room sounds as if the storm is inside. Steward explained, in a somewhat miffed tone, that we did not push the handle hard enough. DL cannot do this, Ken will need to help. We ...

Missed Multiple Stops Along With Many Issues Prior to and During Trip

The following problems occurred prior to and during our cruise. For the record, this was our Anniversary cruise too. They couldn't schedule our return flight for five days after the cruise, eliminating our ability to take advantage of the buy one get one free Airfare promotion. I ended up paying double for my own airfare. Then to add insult to injury, without speaking to me, one of their ...

Not impressed with food quality

One of the main reasons for a cruise is the food. In the past you could get a very good meal without going to a specialty restaurant, that does not look to be the case anymore. This is our 4th cruise and this was the worst food by far, we did not have a good meal in the complimentary restaurants. The complimentary restaurants were subpar with no flavor and low quality. The exception was ...

The cruise had great ports, but they didn’t spend enough time to explore them.

We chose this cruise to be able to explore the cities in the Mediterranean with our family. Our primary goal was to visit a variety of places with the ease of a cruise for transportation. Unfortunately, for every city, the ship was in port with 2-3 other large ships. Also, due to the size of the ships, you have to port well outside the primary city of interest. Everyone is trying to get on ...

Sun’s Transatlantic crossing in April 2023 was advertised online so we booked and paying our deposit in our NCL online account. This is where the first problems started, we seemed to be charged additional fee when ever we booked on specialities dinners (part of the original cruise package) or add and pay for shore excisions. At lease three times we had to call the Florida office to get these ...

Picked the cruise for the great itinerary 9 ports in 11 days Spain, Portugal & Canary Islands in the Winter. The guests embarking in a few locations was new think that worked. Old school life boat drill not sure why we are revisiting that. Stood on deck for a 1/2 hour and got shushed a few times before the drill started. Entertainment 3 shows well done great singers and dancers. ...

Floating Nursing Home

Between the two of us, my husband and I have been on 8 cruises, with various lines (Carnival, MSC, Norwegian, Princess and Royal Caribbean), so we generally know what to expect on a cruise. What we didn't anticipate when we booked an early December (2022) ten day Cruise on NCL from Lisbon Portugal to the Canary Islands, Gibraltar, Spain and back to Lisbon was to be on a floating nursing home. The ...

MSC is deteriorating

Embarkation was quick and smooth. The Preziosa is a beautifull ship with a good layout. We were cruising in an Aurea suite which includes the ‘Easy’ drinking package, massage and spa access. Overall food quality is below average, in the buffet hot food is just warm. If you’re looking for Nutella or something alike they refer to the shop where you can buy(!) it. Never heard that one before. At ...
