Asia Cruise Reviews

Debated whether it was a 4* or a 5. Lets say 4.5 and round it up. Itinerary was Tokyo to Tokyo with stops in Japan, Korea and China. Pre Cruise (included) - We did our own air and transfers. Added 2 days on our own to the hotel @ $450 a night. The pre cruise tours were organized by Destinations Asia and had an American in the front doing all the managing and announcements. Worked well ...

The ship was excellent and the staff couldn’t do enough for you. The only detractors were the distances from port to excursion destinations for a few places. 2-3 hour journey times were often the case. We didn’t go to Bangkok or Ho Chi Minh because of this. Instead we spent an overnight in Pattaya which wa only 40 minutes in a taxi (£8 on a Grab taxi rather than the $60 US the taxis were looking ...

This was the best cruise of our life. Viking really does everything right: All-inclusive pricing, almost no extras (some excursions are extra), absolutely delicious food every meal, almost no sense of crowding, fantastic destinations. We enjoyed every single day. Got to see some bucket-list sites, notably Borobudur, the largest Buddhist monument on Earth. Staff were exceedingly helpful and ...

The ship has an elegant interior which is kept spotlessly clean. All passengers were greeted with a glass of champagne on embarkation which foreshadowed the great service for the whole cruise. Cabins were immediately available so after unpacking we went to the aft buffet for a snack. We were warmly greeted and treated to nice glasses of wine while admiring the view of Hong Kong in somewhat chilly ...

Emerald met and exceeded our expectations. Their level of service is top rate. You will always be greeted with a smile and a helping hand if needed. There were so many individuals on our tour and ship that enhanced the experience and we are grateful for them all. The ship itself is beautiful. We loved our room, the pool deck, lounge and dining room. The food was absolutely ...

I am amazed to see some of the negative reviews written regarding this cruise! I can hardly comprehend we were on the same ship at the same time. I therefore had to write a review even though I don’t usually do so. We had the most incredible cruise. We have been cruising over 20 years with a variety of different cruise lines and Celebrity are by far our favourite. We ate at Blu. The staff were ...

We started the land part of our trip in Hanoi, joining the Harmony a week later for seven nights on the Mekong. I have sailed with Emerald once before (on the Rhine) and have been more than impressed on both occasions by the attention to detail of every aspect of the cruise experience. The Harmony is a beautiful and relatively new ship, very tastefully furnished and fitted-out. The main ...

This was our 14 th cruise with various lines but our first with celebrity. We did 3 nights in Singapore at the beginning of our cruise and added 3nights in Hongkong after the cruise. Certainly Hongkong is a must see city worthy of anyone’s wish list.Having said that so is Singapore. The cruise was everything we could have hoped for .Cabin was concierge deck 9 with good size balcony.Solstice ...

We have always wanted to visit this area to view not only the beautiful sights, but also to learn about the culture & history. We certainly were not disappointed. Our Viking tour guide Bic Tran gave us a true insight into Cambodia & Vietnam. She gave us an insight into the wars In both Vietnam ( based on her families experience) that you would never get in history books. Her prospective of what ...

Because of Covid this cruise was cancelled 3 years for us, but the Celebrity Lift and Shift deal gave us the opportunity to sail this cruise with same benefits as booked in 2000. Ship itself is nice, sails quiet and stable. Cabin is a bit outdated but still very comfortable. Bed/matress however was hard compared withn our last cruise with the Solstice and Eclipse. To be replaced? Cabin steward ...
