London (Greenwich, Tower Bridge, Tilbury) to Europe Cruise Reviews

The cruise had been revised to Grand Mediterranean before we booked. The Black Sea was inaccessible because of the war in Ukraine. We booked this for the itinerary and didn't know what to expect for such a reasonable price. We had a contingency plan to fly home from Rome if we really didn't like it. We were pleasantly surprised and it exceeded all expectations. There is a nice atmosphere on ...

We choose this company initially for the ease of travelling to Tilbury. So glad we did. We had a wonderful trip. It was my first every cruise, my mum's second. The staff were so friendly, the entertainment was great. We enjoyed eating in both Restaurants. Breakfast, Lunch, Afternoon tea & 3 course Evening Meal, I'm surprised we didn't come back twice the size. We took out a soft drinks package. ...

We went with ambassador cruise line because of the itinerary British isles. Embarkation was ok. 1st impressions in the cabin very dated,had lots of hanging space was ok. The public areas bars and coffee place were good. The Buffett food was very poor,we had Sunday lunch the rib of beef you could have soled your shoes. Lady at the counter complained that the Yorkshire puddings had ...

It's difficult to know where to start, there was so much not right about this 12 day experience. 1)On arrival we discovered that to have internet access for the trip was £110 per head. There are over 1,200 passengers, so do the maths. I do not mind paying a reasonable sum for what the service cost. I am certain it does not cost Ambassador £120,000 a week. I refused to pay and used free internet ...

I like small ships and had sailed on Ambience recently with my husband. This time I went as a solo. They put on events for Solos on sea days and had a meeting table in one bar. Lots of events on, although the early dinner sitting of 5.45 meant I had to miss a few, but dinner was not to be rushed as was so delicious and small portions meant I could try 4 of the 5 courses. Theatre entertainment was ...

Having been on several cruises, and reading adverse comments about Ambience, we were apprehensive. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our Norway cruise. We had a spacious outside cabin, that had numerous drawers and wardrobe. The mattress was comfortable, and the shower was superb. The entertainment with very very good singers and dancers, and was better than most of the known cruise ships we ...

My wife and I did The British Isles & Ireland Cruise in August 2022 and without doubt have classed it as the worst cruise we have ever had the misfortune to go on. The ship was supposedly refitted prior to its first sailing in April 2022 but the only signs of a ‘refit’ were the changing of all thing’s plastic to the new corporate colour of purple. Past C&M cruisers felt that it was essentially the ...

Itinerary - Tilbury - Copenhagen - Ronne - Tallin - Helsinki - Stockholm (overnight) - Visby - Skagen - Tilbury Having been on the first two Ambience cruises, where it would have been fair to say, you certainly needed a sense of humour, we were really interested to see how the Ambience had progressed when we booked this last minute cruise. In fact, despite all the initial problems we have ...

Been with Cruise and Maritime a couple of times and thought they were good. Tilbury and no flight a big bonus. Parking easy but embarkation a disappointment. Promised "priority" boarding and luggage because we were in a De-luxe suite, but experience exactly the same as everybody else's which, to be fair wasn't bad but wasn't what we'd been promised, or paid for. That was actually the theme of the ...

I originally chose this cruise because I wanted to visit St Petersburg and also because Ambience departed from Tilbury, which is local to me. Unfortunately Russia was removed from the itinerary due to the war in Ukraine but we still visited the Baltic States. I enjoyed relaxing on board with a cocktail or two as well as exploring the various destinations including Copenhagen, Helsinki, Stockholm ...
