My wife and I cruise with different companies and on ships that go from 180 to 6000 passengers. When we chose this sailing from Marseille, it had however been a while since sailing on of these huge vessels (the last was Symphony of the Seas in 2018 or 2019). We were not that confident that we had made a good choice, as we've had to some hit-and-miss experiences on other MSC ships between 2019 and ...
We decided post pandemic to get cruising again, and a 7 Night adventure in the Adriatic and Greek Islands sounded fine for us. It was over 15 years ago since we had sailed with Celebrity ( to the Carribean ), so we booked through IGLU travel, and their sevice has been fantastic. Firstly, all the planning by them has gone like a dream. We got a deal on Aqua Class and an all inclusive standard ...
Recommended this cruise line by friend and booked with Azamara direct.
We had no pre-cruise information until I phoned company two days before departure. It was quickly email to us.
The cruise itself was fabulous, highly recommended.
Before cruise notified that due to a new computer system installation there might be discrepancies in our invoices. On checking, informed Azamara that the ...
We typically cruise with Viking but my husband wanted to try a smaller ship. And since I love to cook and this was advertised as Epicurean I assumed there would be cooking demonstrations and or classes. There was one cooking session. Advertising this cruise as Epicurean is "false" advertising. The ads are over promised and under delivered. Was also looking forward to going to a lemon farm on the ...
Just back from a great week on Costa Toscana, Booked this cruise whilst onboard the same ship when it was in Dubai. Booking onboard gives you a discount off the cruise fare price, rather than Onboard Spend which other cruise lines offer. At the moment it is 10% so can be a quite significant discount.
With Costa on most of their cruises you can board at any point it stops at generally, so I ...
The servers at dinner were very accommodating. The bartenders mostly made you wait unless you had money in hand it to show you were tipping. The dining room food was good and the servers especially Prosecco our waiter in the Trellis dining room.
Warning to all passengers!!!! Don’t eat any sushi or lobster soup! I along with other guests got food poisoning on lobster soup in the Sushie ...
Outstanding: Of our some 30 cruises, both ocean and river, this was among the 3 best overall, and the best in multiple regards particularly food and beverage. (A post-covid cruise we took on 1 of those 3 best was now unsatisfactory.) Considering we are still coming out of covid, and that Azamara recently changed ownership, with attendant start-up problems with the website, the performance of ...
We traveled on a River Cruise with Viking in the past. We were very impressed with the service offered we wanted to try an Ocean cruise. The Viking team showed up with the same type service so it was easy to see it’s part of the company’s culture. The cabins cleaned twice a day, the ship was always clean, and the restaurants top notch.
In the restaurants the food was well prepared and tasted ...
We chose Silversea on this occasion for the itinerary, although we have cruised with them before and know that their standard is our standard.
The cruise was superb from start to finish. Although the ship is a little bit tired decor-wise, it did not detract from our enjoyment at all.
The food was of a uniformly high standard. We mostly ate in the main restaurant as the choice is excellent ...
We chose this cruise because of the ports visited that was on our bucket list for years. We sailed on the Viking Sea in 2019 and loved everything about the cruise. We had the same expectations after booking this cruise but we were immediately disappointed starting the first night on board. The food quality, selection, taste and presentation were lacking and mediocre at best. The food lacked ...
