About the Reviewer: I’m a middle-aged American male who traveled solo on this, my 60th voyage. Over half of my sailings have been with NCL, however, I have sailed on other cruise lines including Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, MSC and Carnival. This cruise was my first cruise as a Diamond Latitudes member with NCL. My reviews are written in chronological order of events as they took place on the ship. ...

An Average, Enjoyable Transatlantic Cruise

We chose this cruise as we wanted to experience a transatlantic crossing. This itinerary suited us as Portugal is a country we had not been to, and we wanted to visit New York again. We are Platinum Latitude members and after sailing on a few other cruise lines we prefer the NCL Freestyle experience and Speciality Dining options. We do not like the bigger ships and mainly choose a cruise based ...

Itinerary made it worth going

Itinerary made it worth going. Have been on Infinity in the past, ( and other Celebrity ship's ) and we noted a drastic drop in menu standard at main dining room. The confirmed late dining had gone missing in the reservation, and we had to negotiate a bit to get a set table. Waiter service was inadequate. Each night we waited a very long time for everything. Shortage of staff or they are not ...

Not Celebrity as we knew it!

Having been on the Solstice class ships on four different cruises, nothing prepared us for this older kind of ship at full capacity! Okay, the ship is old, we expected that but the public places are well kept up and the food is fine too. However, the great aspects of a Celebrity cruise are missing, and the constant negatives of Celebrity are worse here than on the solstice class ships. I mention: ...

Some Disappointments

I really mean 3.5 as a rating. We had also been on this ship when we did the Grand Voyage around South America earlier in the year...which met expectations. Not so much here. Our bathroom smelled for an odour coming from the bathroom. They tried to find the source but could not stop it. So eventually the staff (with one exception) agreed that there was no smell. So when we were ashore we ...

We were on the ship for 17 Days Lisbon to Lisbon which wasn't a back to back when we booked it but it was split at a later date when the itinerary was totally changed We have cruised with Silversea 3 times before (Shadow and Spirit twice) but saw an interesting itinerary on a new ship and thought we would give it a go. Here is how our cruise turned out which was not what we had hoped ...

We chose this cruise because of the destinations. We enjoyed each and every port and are amazed at the beautiful locations. The ship has numerous lounges that were enjoyed by the guests. From the exercise classes provided poolside to the dancing in the lounges, you can say that this cruise was very active on all fronts. The theater entertainment was good and the dancers were excellent, all ...

Never Use NCL Again

Review for a Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise on Norwegian Getaway

We booked this cruise 1 1/2 years ago when it was supposed to be the new ship, Viva. It wasn't finished due to supply chain issues and the Getaway went in it's place. There were well over 4K people on this ship AND 1500 children. Way too many people. I thought the food at Savor, Tropicana, and Taste were really good. We would upgrade and get the Cagney Steak for $15 upcharge. There were so many ...

Incredible Iberian Discovery - inaugural sailing for Scenic Eclipse II

We’ve travelled with Scenic on several river cruises in Europe and wanted to try out their ocean itinerary on Eclipse series. As this was inaugural voyage for Eclipse II and the owners/VIP would be on boat, we were expecting high standard of excellence. We encountered a mix of inexperienced butlers/waiters and other staff, incomplete preparations where staff were still adding/assembling/fixing ...

Itinerary was excellent. Lisbon to Miami 19 days. Excellent ports of call full of history and geography and culture. All of the staff on board SUN is wonderful. Assistant Cruise Director Carlisa is very friendly and welcoming. During the renovations NCL added extra specialty restaurants which are not up to NCL standard. Moderno restaurant has very poor table service. Salad selection is ...
