Good way to get home after touring in England,
Good length of cruise.
Really enjoyed the cruise in general, the only negative was the Indian visa requirement, don't know why Princes continue to include India, when it is such a pain to acquire visa and it costs so much for a single day.
On the up side:
1/ The inclusion of the Share Restaurant was a real bonus, initially thought the $39 ...
Decided on doing this cruise as relations were making their way back to Australia after spending 3 weeks with us in Wales.
This was our first time with Princess and will certainly cruise with them again .
As I was travelling solo and had to pay the dreaded double cost I chose a inside cabin ,
this was mid ship on Baja deck B411 ,cabin very spacious,loved the open wardrobe space making the ...
Great itinerary. Lovely ship. Good food. Enjoyed everything about it.
We enjoyed the cruise, and the days just whizzed by. We were very sorry to get off the ship. The dining room was especially fun, and Peter our speedo wearing waiter from Hungary made the experience. Enjoyed the pools, the weather, and the trivia.
Having a balcony was very nice, and we enjoyed sitting outside ...
We had a fabulous 30 day cruise from Southampton, England through the Suez Canal until we reached Singapore. Very interesting ports of call including Dubai, Aqaba (Jordan), Cochin (India), Phuket, not to mention Italy and Sicily.

Emerald Princess 30th September- 14th October Mediterranean Cruise
Couple Age mid-fifties. First cruise for my wife and i , absolutely fantastic, from boarding to embarking on the final day.
We both had a relatively open minds, of course some research had to be done , I read a whole host of reviews, as always a great cross section of opinion provided all with negatives and positives. Gratuities ...
Second cruise with Princess and just as eventful as last year though for different reasons. Last year on Crown Princess we had a missed destination - Corfu - due to intercepting Syrian refugees who needed a doctor. This year we had 2 engine fires and to paraphrase Oscar Wilde, to have one engine fire could be regarded as a misfortune, to have two looks like carelessness! Other passengers with many ...
We used to travel down to Southampton from mid Suffolk in our car, staying overnight at a spa hotel, indulging in a first class dinner then going down to the dock by taxi and after the cruise returning to the hotel by taxi to pick up our car.
Having costed this out a couple of times, we decided this time that for marginally more money we could get a return taxi all the way down to the port ...
Our cruise was the Mediterranean adventure and we sailed from Southampton 12th July 2014. This was our 3rd cruise with Princess and we loved it !
Once again we stayed overnight in the Southampton Premier Inn.
The embarking process went very smoothly although it was very busy we just unloaded our car ( 8 suitcase!) and the bags were taken away to our cabin and after 30 minutes we were on ...
