We chose this cruise on the recommendation of a friend. Cabin 3628 was very stuffy and noisy caused by the ships engine and extractor fan. As this was our first cruise we didn't know what to expect but certainly not hard sell on everything. We didn't have a drinks package and the cost of wine etc was prohibitive. Needless to say those who had a drinks package were drinking from early ...
We chose this cruise as we had not visited the Azores, we have been on the Navigator before so we knew what to expect, however we found some changes that we approved of.
Firstly, when we entered our stateroom I thought that we had been given a larger one than on previous Royal Caribbean cruises, then my wife pointed out that there wasn't a coffee table, which made late night toilet trips a lot ...
Our first cruise out of Southampton , no flights
Great port facilities, car parks next to ship. Boarding was quick.
We picked this cruise because of itenary and was not disappointed
Only Vigo was a bit disappointing being Sunday and nothing open.
Highlights being azores and maderia.
We did, nt do excursions at every port but the ones we did were excellent
Our cabin was OK and ...
Every Royal Caribbean seems to have both high and low points, and this one was no different.
Prior to the cruise, we attempted to purchase all of out excursions online, primarily because they were offered at a 25% discount. So we selected all of them, but when we attempted to pay for them, the system failed repeatedly. When we contacted customer service, and they said that the system DOES have ...
Joining friends, we went for the itinerary. We are fans of Celebrity and found this ship was too large for us. Especially the Promenade. At times not only could you not walk through but the entertainment was excruciatingly LOUD. Ship's excursions were okay, nothing fancy or exciting. We also found the Windjammer Cafe was hard to find seats even though they had crowded the floor with table ...
My husband and I booked this cruise nearly a year ago. We were very happy with the interaction between the staff and crew and made to feel most welcome. The MDR staff was wonderful and most accommodating to everyone at our table. They also provided a lot of fun during our meals. Our cabin was roomier than we expected. We had the same category as the last time we sailed (D1), but this location ...
We wanted to visit Azores and found it a highlighter of the cruise, we enjoy royal Caribbean and they have a good loyalty programme. This cruise was a good choice of ports except Le Harve we would not have gone there by choice. The entertainment was very good and covered all tastes , the dining room was good with a varied menu and well cooked.
The voyager ships are a good size for us and the ...
Never been before. Very good cruise. Staff were excellent. Very good for disabled passengers. Tours very expensive. Wouldn't bother doing any. 300$ for a trip to Paris. I have done a coach trip from the UK for 4 days for half that. Local cabs quarter of the price and excellent services. Shops extremely expensive. Forgot to buy toothpaste and charged 7$ on the ship.
Royal Caribbean try to get ...
we picked this cruise to see places we have not been to. the public areas are decent, but the cabins stink. the food [gluten free] is not really their best. in fact neither is their regular menu. it got so we had the waiter, asst., head waiter @ our table most nights taking comments to get to the kitchen [hope it will help future cruisers]. boarding, on & off are simple easy & efficient, we carry ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary. We were not enthusiastic about the size, and the large number of passengers, but the itinerary was our goal.
The ship was SO crowded - on sea days, the Promenade was clogged with people; the tiny library was almost always full (no cash earnings, there, I guess) and the Windjammer was chaotic.
We were mainly happy with the food, although usually not ...
