Athens (Piraeus) Cruise Reviews

We choose this cruise specifically for the itinerary. The over nights in Mykonos and Santorini were the deciding factor. I have been on over 30 cruises with multiple cruise line and I can honestly say this ship was not ready for passengers. We were on the maiden voyage of the Journey and found out that the crew arrived the same morning as the passengers. The ship was not cleaned, it was in fact ...

We enjoyed the itinerary and cabin, but had a lot of issues on this ship compared with our last cruise, which was on Princess. A few issues - Last minute update to a shore excursion that led us to cancel it (self driving tour- would have to share a car with strangers given group size of 2 - should have been included in description) - Food in main dining room was very hit or miss. Buffett ...

My experience in the cruise with food, beverage, staff and extra tours were good. The Chef and the whole kitchen team were ok and very friendly. Nevertheless I have no assistance for my own visit in Mykonos first port we stopped. I asked for a recommendation from the tour assistance team about a transport taxi driver or something like this to go to a public beach but I didn’t get any. The ...

We chose this ship because I have always traveled with Royal Caribbean but was told that Celebrity was a step up. I was aware that the ship was older but had been refurbished. Cleanliness: The sink in bathroom had to be removed after each time we used it because it was clogged and pretty gross. The shower curtain was not clean, the hallways smelled of mold and several of my companions wound up ...

It was the only cruise boarding and disembarking from Piraeus at that date. First the positives. 1. Room service was very good. The room was cleaned twice per day. The whole ship kept very clean. 2. Crew was very professional always eager to assist and always smiling. Except Reception desk officers! 3. The shows in the huge Theater were excellent. It was clear that all the artists put ...

MAIN RESTAURANT : THE FOOD WAS WELL BELOW AVERAGE,TWICE THE BEEF WE ORDERED WAS HARD AND CHEWY, They had for main courses every day pasta (with no meats) and rissoto. The indian butter chicken it was a shame for the indian cooking!! In general, the food was tasteless,no imagination. it is true that we were spoiled by all other cruise companies (royal ...

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 ...

We have just disembarked from the Norwegian Getaway after our cruise from Venice to Athens. It was my husband and I sailing and our 2 and 5 year old daughters. We started off the holiday with a wonderful few days in Venice and then on the final day we caught the train from Trieste down to Venice with many other NCL passengers. When we arrived we very quickly realised that there were very few ...

First off, the ports we visited were BEAUTIFUL There didn't seem to be any management on board, No Cruise Director, never was able to talk to a chef about certain food allergies, even when we mentioned it at various restaurants. It is known that Virgin caters to the young people, so if you are over 50 you need to be prepared for a different cruise. Different it was. These are some of ...

We chose NCL for the 1st time because Princess are not going to Croatian ports in 2023. The food in the main dining rooms was cold,tasteless and we found the service very poor. We had to wait for over an hour to get the NCL buses to and from most ports. There were chaotic scenes when we disembarked with buses trying g to turn whilst taxis were parking and leaving almost running over the ...
