London (Greenwich, Tower Bridge, Tilbury) to Norwegian Fjords Cruise Reviews

I needed a cruise that that tied in with school holidays and I wanted one that lasted more than a few days so that I got a feel for the whole cruising experience. As a first time cruiser, I felt that a week would be perfect. I first came across Ambassador on a YouTube video. It focussed on cruising on the ship as a solo passenger. I liked what I saw and investigated further. As soon as I ...

The fact that this was a no-fly cruise and the price we paid all inclusive made the choice easy Booking the cruise was easy and the sales staff very helpful Yes. Parts of the ship are dated. But : The service from all the staff was faultless The cabins were roomy and comfortable and our steward Jellie looked after us extremely well The entertainment was first class The food was ...

First cruise post Covid and first with Ambassador. An absolute joy Ambassador have certainly got things right, from brilliant guest speakers to excellent food, but the highlight was the outstanding evening entertainment. Ports of call Eidfjord stunning scenery a a lovely trip to a cider brewery. Flam and a trip on the famous railway not to be missed. Bergen pretty and nice shops but strangely ...

Returned home 2 days ago from a cruise around the Norwegian Fjords and have let the dust settle before writing this review. Parking & Embarkation: Parking needs to be booked prior to arrival and is easy to find but at £80 for 7 days it aint cheap!! TIP: We heard that the local Asda which is only a mile away will let you park there for half the price. Before parking you drop your ...

From the breathtaking views of the Norwegian Ffojds, comfortable cabin, amazing staff, delicious food and top notch entertainment my cruise was so amazing. Both restaurants a la carte and self service offered a sublime range of different foods. We had the cheapest cabin option, but no way did the bargain price reflect the size, style and comfort of the cabin. It was immaculate and ...

Ambassador: - This is a "brand new" cruise line based out of Tilbury. The senior management previously ran CMV (Cruise and Maritime Voyages) which closed down mid 2020 due to lockdown restrictions. The new line, like the old one, is FIRMLY geared up to cater for the 50-80 age range and more towards the mid/value end of the market. Being based in Tilbury and only offering “No-Fly” cruises, ...

Having been on the maiden voyage of Ambassador’s ship Ambience, which we loved, we decided to book the multi-generational cruise with our family. It did not disappoint! We booked direct, rather than through a travel agent and received excellent service. On arrival at Tilbury, the porters were on hand to whisk our luggage away and direct us to the embarkation lounge. We we’re onboard ...

We chose tis cruise because going to the Norwegian fjords was on my wife's bucket list. Viking did not give us good directions on how to find the exact location for check in in Greenwich, UK. After check in, Viking made us stand in the line in the sun for a long time to board a tender to the ship docked in the River Thames; that was awful. Once on board, the crew were friendly and helpful. Our ...

My husband and I have always wanted to see Norway. We both have Norwegian DNA. It is also a place that neither one of us has been before. The ship and our cabin were immaculate. Our cabin stewards anticipated our every need. All of the Viking employees were wonderful. We enjoyed the port talks and all the lectures they offered. Our favorite excursion was the husky dog sleds. We also got to ...

We picked this trip to see the Northern Lights and Norway in winter, to remind me of growing up in the snow! The crew - ALL OF THEM - are amazing, unfailing nice, and make this cruise a really wonderful time. They read and respond to your comments on a daily basis so if you need something they really do take it into account. Seriously, cannot day enough good things about all the crew. Even the ...
