AJ’s Sloth and Monkey sanctuary. We booked this on our own in advance. Shore excursions to these places were longer and more costly. We got transportation and the animal experience for $35 pp. Lots of fun and guide was great.

My husband and I had a wonderful time on The Jade touring Greece and Turkey, and NCL made it easy and comfortable for us to do this. A little about ourselves, we have sailed NCL 7 other times before and made Platinum on this cruise. We are more about the ports of call and not the ship, but the Jade was the first time in years that we were back on a smaller ship. We were concerned about ...

Nice itinerary but awful food

We chose this cruise because of its itinerary around the greek islands and were very pleased with every port. However, the ship is old, something that was noticeable - small spaces, lack of activities, crowded swimming pool, etc. The last theater show was always at 9pm, which meant we could only attend it if we had scheduled dinner for 7.30pm, too early. The stops were long enough, but ...

It was a group of elderly going together on an unbelievable experience because we wanted to get baptized in the Jordan River, but it turned out to be really bad. At first we got to the cruise without our luggage’s because United Airlines misplaced all our luggage’s and we got them four (4) days after sailing (this wasn’t the cruise fault, but for other stuff I need to let you know about this), Our ...

My husband and I always wanted to visit Greece and Israel and what a perfect way to see them. Pros-hospitality was amazing, very friendly and helpful. Food was delish especially Cagney Steak House and Jasmine Garden Asian Restaurant. Night life Entertainment was very good from listening to Rami to Nightlife Duos…Fantabulous!!! Drinks were great especially when they were made by James over at the ...

We boarded the cruise from Athens. We stayed in Athens for 2 nights before the cruise. We took the second guest free air option - which in retro was a mistake. Both the flights had stop over and would not have travelled in either airlines ( Lufthansa/Air France) if I was booking myself. I was hoping that from JFK we would have a chance to get direct flight to Athens - no joy. Also we had to seat ...

No service, no assistance, terrible experience

The worst cruise experience I (and several strangers on multiple ships) have ever had. Absolutely horrid cruise line which lost countless customers. There are several things that went wrong on my recent trip on Jade. Our bed was not made and we did not receive fresh towels when our room was open. Even at slow bars, we could not get service half the time. Bartenders did not know how to make ...

Destinations offered and time that fit with my husbands work schedule. We have usually sailed with Royal but it was not available for our schedule. We had no idea that a cruise could be so bad. The food was horrible. We started ordering based on what we thought would disappoint us the least. Left our steak on our plate the first three times then stopped ordering all beef. Everything was ...

We went with 12 family members and everyone had a good time. The food was good and the entertainment was excellent. No complaints about the cruise at all other than the usual line ups complaints etc. The staff were nice and we enjoyed getting to know some of the crew. Our room was an inside cabin which I wasn't excited about but it turned out to be perfect. It was quiet and we couldn't tell what ...

I travelled with my husband and 18 year old daughter. We chose this cruise for its amazing itinerary, particularly for the stops in Israel which is a destination we have always wanted to visit. Embarkation Embarkation in Piraeus (Athens) was very slow. We had long waits in three different rooms before we were able to board the ship. The Ship The ship is older and does not have all of ...

The ship is older and has been remodeled but old stuff can still be found. Nice room and roomy bathroom. The itinerary was changed eliminating Romania and Bulgaria stops. They substituted Volos and Heraklion instead which were ok stops with nice culture and great people. We would not continue and considered canceling, but we hung on due to friends. Foods were acceptable in the dining ...
