We originally booked a very similar cruise on C M V that went out of business - we particularly wanted to visit Halifax and Sydney ( Nova Scotia ) due to a hurricane we did not get to either one.
Embarkation was lengthy and disorganised - not the 5 minutes they claim on the internet. Our cabin was so hot on arrival we could not stay in it - 9140 - after complaining at reception - on our return ...
A lot of the ports we couldnt get into because of the hurricanes but thats not the fault of the ship!! The cabin I had to myself was very spacious and whilst some of the passengers were complaining about the heating system mine seemed to be working alright. I thought the food on the ship was very good and always something to please-especially in the cafe upstairs. The worst thing was the ...
As we have sailed with 6 very different cruise lines, varying from the high class to the expedition type, well known family ships as well as a couple of cruise lines aimed at the over 50s and mainly adult only, I felt we were well appointed to form an opinion of the new Ambassador Cruise Line and their first ship, Ambience. We have never chosen to cruise on a ship much over 3000 passenger size as ...
The Greenland and Canadian cruise was a bit of a disaster what with fog in Greenland and Hurricane Fiona, we missed 4 of the best ports due to weather, the ship also was bit of a disaster everything was either too hot of too cold engineers did not appear to have clue how to control it.

I have recently returned from a cruise on the ship Ambience with Ambassador Cruises. It was a no fly cruise from Tilbuy to Canada, Greenland and Iceland. From the start there were problems. We had to queue at Tilbury for nearly two hours without seats or facilities to get refreshments. Once on the ship and throughout the voyage the air conditioning was faulty and so we were either freezing or ...
This review will highlight the faults and problems that we encountered and that we feel reflect badly on Ambassador and Ambience – we have given Ambassador two weeks to respond to an e-mail detailing most of these, but without a response so far. I would not recommend a cruise on Ambience.
