Sydney (Australia) Cruise Reviews

We had never cruised before and had organised this with other family members and our three kids, youngest 14 and oldest 20. First impression was that the ship was amazing nicely appointed, clean and vast. We are at all three restaurants and were not disappointed by what was on offer, wait staff were friendly and attentive. The pantry was the new style buffet and was the go to for ...

This will be a concise review of some things I struggled to find before we left, things we wondered about and the trip in general. Sydney: loved the city. So much to see and do in the area. We arrived 2 days prior and thank good ness we did. The trip was long, especially the flight from LA to Sydney. There are all the chain hotels but they are relatively pricey, especially near the port. We ...

The real stand out were the people, both staff and fellow passengers. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. Also, after a couple of days the passengers had relaxed and it was really nice being amongst so many people who were their best selves. Everyone was chatting with strangers and that doesn’t generally happen in normal life. The food was excellent. In the main dining room we ...

We chose this eleven night cruise as it suited two key elements, the first being it matced up with our vacation time and secondly it departed and returned from our home port Sydney Australia. This was our first cruise since December 2019, so we were really looking forward to getting back to shipboard life. Embarkation was very easy and smooth we had all the required documentation on hand ...

I wanted to cross the Pacific Ocean, and this was a wonderful way to do it! The ship was only 1/3 full most of the way, so it was very laid back and relaxed, with plenty of room and no queues for anything. The food was great - even the buffet was better than I was expecting. The main dining room meals were beautiful, and the specialty dining meals in the Crown Grill were also good, but not a ...

Thank you to p n o for the best holiday. Had the best time, the show the entertainment never a dole moment. Always some thing to do. Love the cocktail. The restaurant were amazing the service was outstanding. There was only one thing the table for couples was to close. A big big thank you to our room Stewart Mushaf. You went above and beyond not just cleaning our room, you were helpful with ...

We recently went on a cruise to New Zealand which included stops in Dunedin (Port Chalmers), Christchurch (Lyttleton), Wellington, Napier and Picton along with a day spent scenic cruising through Milford Sound, Dusky Sound and Doubtful Sound – Fiordland. We had a great time. The cruise involved a total of five sea days, one as previously mentioned was scenic cruising. We were blessed with fine ...

We were looking for something out of the ordinary, and this adventure did not disappoint. We enjoyed exploring Sydney and riding the public ferries to the local beaches,, seeing kangaroos in the wild during our Hunter Valley wine tasting, snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef, witnessing Komodo Dragons in their natural environment, and relaxing in a luxurious Bali resort. The Viking Experience ...

We wanted to complete an earlier world cruise, and so booked the 49 day Sydney to New York cruise. We love the QM2 and continue to love it. After the Covid pause we were a bit worried as to what shape the ship would be in, but we found it to be in good shape. Things are returning to normal. The ship was very clean, and the deck crew was putting a lot of time and effort into painting. As usual, ...

We originally booked this cruise back in 2019, but it got cancelled because of the pandemic. We booked again but our cruise got cancelled 3 more times. Finally, we were able to take this cruise from Sydney, Australia. The first thing I noticed when boarding is the ship is VERY pink. But that didn't bother me, I thought it added to the experience. You enter the ship via the massive, breathtaking ...
