We were looking for a repositionig cruise to celebrate our retirement. We pre-ordered a bottle of champagne to be in our room for our departure but there was none. We finaly called the front desk by 7:00 pm and were told they would not be able to deliver it till tomorrow evening? It just set off the rest of the cruise .The Buffet was a repetion of the same thing every day .I think they used ...

This cruise took my wife and me to several ports in the Med, two Canary Islands, three Caribbean ports, Miami, and finally Cape Canaveral. The ship is beautiful, really nice. The experience was mediocre to terrible. The first leg from Rome to Barcelona (nine days) saw us going through the large 'cafeteria' deck looking for plates, glasses, and utensils for lunch. Scores of passengers were ...

I just returned as a solo traveler on the NCL EPIC. Worst cruise ship I have ever cruised on. Eleven days of pure torture. This ship feels like a dark, dank, dirty, seedy two-star Las Vegas Casino, only in Pahrump, NV. The food was horrible, the crew were constantly angry, often agitating passengers. My check in was botched, my app never worked, my name was wrong, all my excursions were cancelled ...

I had a particularly bad cruise experience on the Costa Toscana. I have been on a cruise 11 times but have never had such a bad cruise experience, including last week on the Costa Toscana.) had a My Drinks drinks package but was not allowed to order at the bar. I had to sit on a chair and wait for the waiter to come. This always took a very long time. Of course I tried to get the waiter's ...

I am an experienced cruise traveler but I have never had such a bad cruise experience. The food was very poor, cold and dried out. At the buffets you were not allowed to serve yourself, but the staff had to do it and there were far too few staff. You were not allowed to get drinks from the bars but had to wait for service. and there was too little service. therefore I could not use my My Drinks ...

I booked and paid for this cruise for my Husbands birthday on the 2nd Oct or 33rd Wedding anniversary on the 6th Oct and as a treat for my parents who are both 81 and in very poor health. My Mam has mixed dementia and my Dad stage 4 lung cancer, this was the last holiday they will ever have. We have never sailed NCL and have only ever sailed with RC, we left the cruise ship on Tuesday 4 days ...

How does this company gets away with it? From the minute you step onboard you are mobbed with staff members trying to sell/upsell you products, from dining packages to cheap and nasty wrist watches . The buffet food was always cold, poor quantity, miserable presentation, plastic plates , far too many people crowding around a very small area . The pizza was ( mostly cold) no better than a cheap ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 30s

What should have been a relaxing cruise for two ended up as a constant battle against a ship and its crew. There was no hospitality on board, worst cruise experience I have ever had. At one point I had to fear for my life and not one person would take responsibility. We were stuck in line on deck 2 with over 100 other passenger for more than a hour with no information or assistance, only after ...

Terrible time on the Costa Toscana

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

Went on the Costa Toscana on a med cruise 19th August 2023 with my husband and three teenage kids. It was not a pleasant experience and, given the price, we are bitterly disappointed. It’s not a luxury experience even though some of the decor is upmarket, we just felt hassled most of the time. First big problem - overcrowding. Buffet heaving busy like the rush hour underground. Tired looking ...

Nothing else then: horrible Overcrowded places, too many people for only the few accomodations, fun pass for kids is casino to get your money, they don't put any limit on the fun pass, so after just being on the boat for a couple of hours they already went over the limit by 100€ but for the waterslides they need your signature... touristtraps all over! The activities are overpriced, we only ...
