Lisbon to Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

We have cruised with Azamara several times in the past , and have always had a great experience ! And this , was no different ! This was a 9 night crossing from Lisbon to Bridgetown, Barbados , one stop in Madeira . From the outset , we received excellent service. We checked in leisurely at Lisbon, and boarded the ship in time for lunch. Staterooms were ready from about 1.30pm and our ...

Booked this cruise with my wife who chickened out because she had come down with covid on our previous cruise (see Feb. 2023 Celebrity Edge review)-took our 17 year old brilliant grandson instead. I chose this particular cruise Lisbon-southern Spain, Morocco-because SilverSea Dawn excursions included Jewish historical and cultural sites as well as the more typical. Of course a brand new ship of ...

We traveled Lisbon to Lisbon for 21 days starting mid-October. We chose this cruise because it included many ports we had not visited previously. Unfortunately, they had to cancel two ports - Tangier and Casablanca - presumably due to the situation in the Mideast. But they substituted an extra night in Malaga and Lisbon, so that was fine. Since we have previously cruised with Seabourn, we were ...

We chose this cruise because of the dates/location required. Our inside cabin was just fine and saved a lot of money. One port was changed for another due to bad weather which was appreciated rather than another sea day. Lots of activities on the ship. We dont do the drinks or wifi package because of high price which I guess is normal on all cruises. I was quite happy with the food but I always ...

First off, I can not understand the negative reviews about this ship, although one has to wonder about someone who complains about how to use a sink! The ship is great and exceeded our expectations. Butler service, bar service and restaurant service were all top notch. Staff were exceptionally friendly without exception. Tours were run well and left on time (a positive for me). Beds and pillows ...

Having read a lot of negative reviews of Prima I was a little sceptical about booking Viva. We did it anyway and I'm so glad we did. It did not disappoint at all. In fact in my mind it proved a lot of haters wrong. But hey, I'm a positive person who looks forward and not to the past so maybe that's why ? In short we loved 95% of Viva and yes there are a few issues, which we fully recognise ...

First time to the Mediterranean, we chose this beautiful brand new ship to embark on. Reasons for choosing this ship were mainly the karting track, thermal spa, and itinerary. We opted for the 2nd guest flies free, 2 specialty dining package among the Free at Sea promotion offerings. I traveled with my husband, 5 year old son, brother-in-law, and mother-in-law and had connecting balcony rooms on ...

This was my second cruise with swan Hellenic. Second one on the Vega. Did not think they could top the first one but they did. Extraordinary service, wonderful food and the friendliest crew imaginable made it another memorable cruise. The crew seemed to be so happy to be with you that they made you feel right at home. Cabin was roomy and beautiful , full size sliding glass door unto the balcony. ...

My family and I sailed on the Resilient Lady departing from Athens, Greece around the Aegean Sea. We had a fabulous time and credited this to the beautiful ship, friendly faces amongst the staff, and excellent service! Firstly, dining on the ship was superior to any alternative cruise line we have sailed prior (10+). In addition to dining options, the ship offers curated cocktails with unique ...

Like the old ships before the razzle dazzle and kid's clubs etc, just loved the understated old fashioned elegance, the crew was excellent and it wasn't crowded, I love this ship and liked it so much we booked it again for 2024. I have only sailed on Royal Caribbean and am up to diamond status, but found the concierge couldn't be beat for solving problems. Can't be positive enough about this ship. ...
