I booked this cruise on the ambience faroe and iceland cruise over 18 months ago, the main reason was it was going down the amazon and the west indies, we’ve always wanted to go down the amazon and you had a offer that if you booked while you were on board you got 20% off the cruise price, in the end paying over £11.300. Around june last year 2023 we were notified that the itinerary of cruise ...

This is my "TRUE" account of what an Ambience cruise is like. Firstly It never reached the 2 ports in Greenland nor Reykjavik in Iceland. A port in Canada was also missed. Instead we visited Cobh in Ireland and Honfluer in France. The cabins are clean, have good storage and the public rooms are in good condition. There are though some musty smells and urine smells in the corridors. The ...

I have been cruising for 35 years and have been on many cruise lines and have cruised a lot more in recent years. Many people are huge fans of Ambassador cruises and will no doubt have had a lovely time. On a positive note, the ship is well maintained, the people who work on the ship are a delight and the ship is very, very clean in comparison to many other cruise lines. The food is in ...

If you like to eat great food in a safe and secure ship, this is not the cruise for you! We booked a suite on this cruise looking forward to getting dressed up for a lovely dinner each night. However the food was very very poor quality, the menus were awful, meat and fresh vegetables were in short supply. It all sort of reminded me of school lunches in the late 50’s early 60’s but actually not ...

We booked this cruise because it sailed from Tilbury and sounded like the trip of a lifetime.... We couldnt have been more wrong! Ambassador advertise itself as a cruise company where you can 'enjoy yourself' (well thats what its latest advert says) What a load of rubbish! Its a tired, old ship with poor food, (only available selected, restricted hours), poor entertainment, discusting all ...

An endurance test not a luxury cruise

We saw Ambassador's Grand Canada and Greenland cruise about a year ago and thought what a wonderful itinerary. So we booked it not knowing anything about this 'new' cruise line. As a way of checking the Company out we booked a week long Norway cruise in April to see if it was for us. This was it's second maiden voyage cruise. We were totally dismayed at the state of the ship. They shouldn't ...

Skipping ports, no independent travel - caveat emptor

I chose this cruise for the itinerary, but it has been a total disappointment to this point. Before we left, stop in Stavanger replaced with Shetland Islands…bad weather in Shetlands changed the new plan so the port of call was skipped. Stopped a day later in Trondheim where the included tour was 1.5 hr 2 stop panoramic bus tour of not much. Next stop - Bodo - also cancelled due to weather…it ...

Room Service was terrible. The luggage forwarding, my name brand clothes are stolen by either the luggage forwarding company or port crew. Not enough activities for the world cruiser. Very disappointed with this cruise, was expecting the service to be outstanding. Some bartenders are good and some are disappointing. The Head Chef is excellent but when he left for vacation the food was not ...

Terrible Food, Spa not as shown, Not a Luxury Cruise

I choose this cruise only because it went to the Northern Lights in Norway. We didnt see them. It is a very rough ride across from London to Norway, that is ok, but the food was terrible. Only thing worth eating is in the specialty restaurants. The spa does not look anything like the pictures. I had to go back to the salon 3 times to finally get my nail color off, as their products were ...

We were celebrating a special birthday for my wife. We loved the itinerary and made plans with dear friends for the celebration. Before we reached to first evening at sea the captain announced that we were passing our first port because of stormy weather and proceeding to our second scheduled port. The weather was so severe that day and night that my wife became extremely seasick, was nauseous, ...
