Norwegian Breakaway Review

Ports were best part! Crowds on ship were the worst part.

This review highlights some of the highs and lows of our trip. We've rated this cruise "4" overall and we have tried to balance our comments accordingly, though we have taken the time to explain the "less favorable" parts thoroughly.

EMBARKATION/DISEMBARKATION

We picked this cruise for the itinerary and we were not disappointed. The cities were amazing. Getting on and off in each port was easy and smooth (except for St. Petersburg, which involved a long, slow process).

Cabin Review

Family Inside Stateroom

Cabin I2

Clean. Slightly larger than inside rooms on other ships.

Port Reviews

Copenhagen

Explored on our own. Three days at the beginning and one at the end. Stayed at an airbnb. Bought the 48 hour Copenhagen Card and used public transportation so we saw a lot of sites in our initial 48 hours in Copenhagen for about $89 USD. We planned ahead of time and mapped everything out to take in as many things as possible using the card. It was great.

Tallinn

Beautiful city. Easy to explore on foot. Lots of ships in port the day we were there so the old town area was quite crowded.

Helsinki

Probably our least favorite port, but an interesting city. We explored by foot and had a wonderful time. Visit the Botanical Gardens!
