Traveling as part of a quite a large party [17]. First problems encountered with Cruise Personaliser having incorrect information - after a number of emails, problem was resolved, or so we thought. Some of the party had pre-booked excursions. When we arrived in our Cabins and checked the tickets for the excursions, the wrong tickets had been issued to the wrong people. After many hours of ...
We arrived in Southampton just after midday for our 7-day cruise around the Norwegian Fjords. Embarkation was very smooth and easy, which is important to us as our daughter is in a wheelchair. The cruise terminal (Ocean Terminal) was extremely crowded, but we had no problems..
Once onboard, our main concern regarding Britannia, having read numerous reviews, was soon confirmed - the lifts on ...
After reading the mixed reviews, we were pleasantly surprised. We thought we were joining a lifeless ship with surly staff, poor food, rubbish entertainment with hard, grey towels, a steward that enters your room unannounced and single ply toilet paper!!! The only one of them statements that we found to be true was the toilet paper. It was hardly the sandpaper other reviewers had made it sound, ...
We are just off britannia b810 to the fjords an we Had a lovely time.Itinerary was nice food was really good and britannia is massive but really nice.
Cabin was an inside but felt bigger and more modern than other ships.
Atrium really nice
Itinerary good loved olden and andalsnes .Stavanger still has a lot of charm about it and we will never tire of it.
Food and entertainment were ...
This cruise to the Fijords was spectacular. The coach journey down to Southampton was easy and we arrived mid afternoon. Embarkation went so smoothly. We were onboard approx 40 mins after arrival.The ship although very large was logistically easy to move around wit location indicators on every deck. The various public areas were quite different to suit all tastes and staff in all areas polite and ...
Just don't know what degetive views are wrote.just a lovely ship and food must be diffcult to caterer for so many passengers.so I think they tried to please everyone.im fussy but I think people are just nit picking.go and find out for yourself.we will go again.
Loved Norway so give it a visit.
Entertainment was very good,seemed plenty to do for all ages.
Cabin was just what we wanted as ...
Firstly, we did have a great time. The ship is enormous and, as a result of being all-balcony, suffers from having no deck on which to walk around the whole ship.
Our balcony cabin was on the small side with a bit of a dark colourway, but the bed was comfortable, the shower was excellent, the TV Films were good and our steward was fab.
We had Freedom Dining and used this every night rather ...

Embarkation was the quickest we(my husband and I) have experienced ,the checkin staff were very friendly and efficient .we were amazed to find our cases already at the cabin door as we were able to enter the room straight away even though we were on board by just after 1.30pm.The balcony room was spotless with ample space for all our clothing.The shower felt larger then those on other P&O Ships we ...
I loved this Cruise ship and enjoyed every minute of it. and can't believe the negative comments. Having dined in the Meridian Restaurant which I was not impressed with, we headed to the Horizon dining area which was much better, plenty to choose from and nice and hot, the cakes & desserts were lovely and a lot to choose from. You get the usual moaning from non -smokers about the smell of tobacco, ...
