This was our first Cunard Cruise, we had high hopes: ship looks stylish, cabin comfortable, embarkation smooth. Drinks are seriously overpriced and service charges do not reflect the level of service delivered. on arrival we had wine but only one glass, no teaspoons for coffee and not enough milk. Food options are very limited compared to P&O and food is rather bland, unimaginative and ...
We chose this cruise for the company - we thought P & O would be a fabulous experience, and the itinerary. The itinerary was great. Possibly one too many sea days and they could have squeezed in another port definitely. But overall the itinerary was OK. Cadiz is beautiful and well worth a visit. Toulon is also a lovely place to go and possibly better than Marseilles which was our original ...
This was not my first RCI cruise and it will definitely not be my last. I'm a cynic and a critic - but Anthem won me over. One of the best overall cruise experiences in more than 40 years.
Yes, the ship is big - 4,000 passengers might seem daunting. But despite the ship's vast interiors, it was intuitively designed, user-friendly, and had the best wayfinding of any ship - bar none.
The ...
This cruise claimed to be everything and have everything, re imaging the world of cruising with a brand you could trust... What a let down.
The ship itself is modern but dirty, beds unchanged, walls with drinks splashed up them, toilet roll all over the place, lemon and limes clogging up the pool filters and bathrooms that need a scrub. Unchanged beds, dirty balconies and dirty plates stacked ...
Travelling with two older teenagers activities were a priority for us. AotS did not disappoint - bumper cars, rock climbing wall, iFly, roller skating, North Star (observation cabin) and Flow rider - these made the cruise a success.
Food was Ok but not great - we paid for the dining package - and just about broke even, dining six out of the seven days in specialty restaurants. Of the ...
Atrocious! Bless some of the staff, they really tried but even they were loosing the will.
Dirty toilets, filthy floors, toilet roll everywhere. I was in a whirlpool and was joined by limes, lemons, pineapple and a plastic cup. The fruit was still there 3 days later and the pools were not clean.
The room had screws on the floor, rubbish in the bin and hairs all over the table. And this was ...
We've sailed four times with Royal Caribbean, once before with Princess and once with Carnival. This was far and away the most expensive cruise - and almost the most disappointing.
Despite Princess's touting of its MedallionNet app, it's really hit or miss. Preloading all your required documentation does not change how long it takes to clear the regular onboarding process: it's still all ...
This was our first cruise with Princess, although we have sailed many times with other lines, mainly Celebrity, so it’s hard not to make comparisons.
Princes runs a series of 7 night cruises which can be extended to as much as 28 days. Our cruise was actually 14 days (Barcelona - Athens). First thing is that it’s quite confusing when a large proportion of the guests changes after 7 days, but ...
My husband and I are in our late 60's and trying to travel as much as we can. I have read many, many reviews and I think some people just expect too much. You make it your own. We NEVER had any cruise employee that was not helpful, friendly, and go out of their way to do anything for you! Every meal we had at any specialty restaurant we exceptional. Even the main dining was very good. The only ...
First, this was NOT a one-week cruise. It was three one-week cruises strung together. Viking sold it as a single cruise from Athens to Barcelona. So this is my review of a 21 night cruise on Viking Sky.
It was interesting to me that when we got our post-cruise survey from Viking, they had everything listed by expectations. For instance, a question might say, "Food in the main dining room: A) ...
