Review for a Middle East Cruise on MSC Opera

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

I recently embarked on a voyage aboard the MSC Opera and feel compelled to share feedback regarding my experience. While certain aspects were positive, unfortunately, the overall experience was poor. Firstly, the buffet's food quality and variety left much to be desired. Frequently, the food felt cold and lacked quality which was disappointing. Despite encouragement to purchase a drinks ...

My husband and I, got to the ship on the 1st March 202 to be told go away for 2hrs. Umm we thought not a good start!. Before boarding no refreshmentsoffered which normally happens on MSC. Room was clean on arrival, and was cleaned daily. No attention to detail but that was fine, felt sorry for the young man as he never stopped. The ship was like a hop on hop off bus, so we had safety ...

From beginning to end the Pharaohs and Pyramid Cruise was superlative in every way. This was our fourth Viking River Cruise and it was over the moon wonderful. The Viking Aton was comfortable and roomy, and Chef Mario Dias cuisine was world class! The Tour/Program Directors were far above my highest expectations with learned, thoughtful, and engaging insights into the magical wonders of ancient ...

Firstly I said to my wife I’d never use Viking again after our experience on the Viking Mars - we had this Egyptian cruise booked before our ocean experience! The Viking Antares a true 5 star experience from the moment we got out of the plane, we had a want for nothing, yes it was a demanding, full days, early mornings with some of the mostly committed people I’ve ever met to make and give ...

We love, dubai, and to cruise. Last year we were with MSC ( seascape) in the caribbean, and hade a wonderful vacation. I am sorry to share my experience with you, this was the 11th cruise we have been on, mainly in the Caribbean. The main criticism concerns the cleanliness and lack of it, the cabin was not cleaned properly when we arrived, there was food waste in the boys, a half-rotten ...

On March 6,2024 we arrived in Cairo and were met immediately by a Viking guide who quickly moved us through immigration and out to a waiting van. The airport was very hectic and it would have been most difficult to negotiate it without the help of Gerkis, our Viking guide. After a harrowing drive through the chaotic streets of Cairo, we arrived at the Fairmont Nile City Hotel. It was definitely ...

We were aboard the Viking M/S Antares for a Nile River cruise, round trip from Luxor. The Viking tour actually begins and ends in Cairo with land excursions. The ship has a traditional design and the interior is very warm with lots of wood and marble finishes. The french balcony stateroom was extremely large (430 sq ft) and very comfortable. Our cruise was about 2/3 full with only 44 guests so ...

Out of 15 cruises on 5 different cruise lines this one has been the worse and the worst part is a European couple already had warned us on a NCL ship in the Caribbean to stay away from European cruise lines. From Norway them self! Once you take an American cruise you will find the quality of food terrible on the European lines. In Tosca Costana the only salt I tasted was the one I added myself. I ...
