Southampton Cruises for the Disabled Reviews

A quick review of our Southampton to New York QM2 crossing, 19-26 Nov. I booked this trip last minute in October when I spotted a “too good to miss” deal on a sheltered verandah cabin. Only after booking did I realise that it was a literary crossing, which was a bonus! The ship was just out of dry dock after a refit, that included new carpets, reupholstered chairs and a beautiful new floor ...

PREFACE Although this is mostly a review of anthem of the seas and excursions taken during the cruise, i have included information on activities pre-cruise. The information about the land-based portion are integral to the trip because you may visit one or more of those locations before or during a cruise you take. I hope the information provided throughout this article will be helpful to you. ...

We chose this cruise based on the ports visited. We have cruised many times before but this was our first NCL experience. We opted for a suite within the Haven which was the best decision we made. The suite was comfortable and spacious, our butler Bernie was always reachable but not in your face. We enjoyed the perks such as being escorted on and off the ship, also priority seating and ...

N399 Ventura - Spain, France and Portugal. Wow, I would like to start this review by saying wow, what an amazing experience for our first cruise! Positives - The most loveliest staff and crew you will ever meet. - Although an older cruise ship, very clean, tidy and lots of facilities. - Really easy embarkation and disembarkation process at all ports. - Lots of choice when it ...

Can't say enough good things about this cruise. It started with an easy embarkation. The lines moved swiftly through security. Dropped my bags off in my cabin and headed for lunch. The buffet was good overall. We did have a few occasions when finding a table was difficult. The food and service were very good. Selection was vast as always with a great omelet station. Food in the MDR was ...

This was a last minute booking, literally. We were docking in Southampton on a Celebrity Cruise when we booked this sailing departing two days later. Previously only sailed with Seabourn and Celebrity, if we had accepted the poor reviews of this ship at face value we would never have booked it - and that would have been a shame. All the speciality dining restaurants were excellent to the extent ...

We LOVED our trip in the Queens Grill arbors the Queen Mary 2. What a magnificent ship. Our penthouse suite was beautifully appointed with every luxury we could want, including a bathtub long enough for my 6’2” frame to stretch out in. Meals were wonderful, especially the Concierge who went out of his way to provide us with special meals and suggestions. Unfortunately all of these good ...

We chose this cruise as a late deal booking 3 weeks beforehand. 5 day break to Le Havre & Rotterdam We usually book a suite but due to late booking sold out so we opted for a superior deluxe balcony cabin. This is aft. Very spacious. We didn’t feel too much motion which I was surprised about. The only issue for some may be the Havana club is right above the room and could hear the music going ...

Booked a 4 night cruise to Hamburg and back from Southampton with the thought if we enjoyed the experience we would then consider a transatlantic next year. Firstly the ship is absolutely stunning, the art deco design combined with modern touches was more than I had hoped for. The lounges were all spacious, never had a problem finding a seat and the waiting staff in all areas were ...

We chose this itinerary as we wanted to do London (5 days prior) and the British isles. We had a standard balcony. It worked for us but I think I prefer the deluxe balcony with a bit more room. Our room steward, Romy, was excellent. The September weather, although pleasantly cool, didn’t lend itself to sitting out on a balcony nor sunbathing. No big deal. We enjoyed the ports especially Cork, ...
