We chose the Jewel based on the dates. It is extremely hot where we live and we wanted the change to cooler weather! We were NOT disappointed! The weather was cool almost cold but delightful! It rained/misted for much of the trip, but even that was pleasant! However, during the excursions, Alaska showed her best by NOT pouring rain on us!
The excursions were well organized and executed to be ...
We had heard good things about the Alaska cruise and we liked the casual feel of this ship. It was our first cruise and had no idea what to expect. We loved it. Our cabin was bigger than expected and loved having the balcony. The atmosphere, food, and drinks were great. We enjoyed the nightly shows. Our favorite bar was the Irish bar. We had to walk through that bar to get to our room and the ...
I wanted a short getaway and wanted to see CUBA. I did not have high expectations for NCL, but this ship changed my mind. It was all inclusive, meaning free drinks. You would think the service would be slow or lots of drunks running around. Nothing like that. The service was the best that I have had in a cruise boat and I did not see any obnoxious drunks. The restaurant, bar and cleanup ...
My 17 year old and I had a fabulous time on the cruise.. We had cabin 1220.. Porthole. And he and I loved the room! Very clean everyday. He said why have a balcony...the whole ship has balconies?! True lol
He recommends the lido deck highly.. Loved the events held ..and lived on the water slide the whole 5 days we were out.
The food was so yummy and the staff was super friendly and ...
I have been a loyal carnival cruiser . This was our first experience on a Norwegian & we have been won over! Everything from dock, to sea, to port and back was organized & flawless. The attention to every Detail was beyond expectations. I’m just beyond impressed with everything! So much so, we already have further cruises now booked with Norwegian.
Not to mention, open bar included on this ...
BACKGROUND
2 sisters travelling to celebrate a milestone birthday on Celebrity Infinity for a roundtrip from Vancouver to Alaska 8-15 July 2018.
We live in UK and Canada respectively and for us it was all about spending time together - doing it on a lovely cruise ship, in beautiful Alaska was certainly a bonus :-) We have sailed 5 times between us but this was the first with Celebrity and ...
We both have Norwegian blood and wanted to see Norway as a celebration of our 50th anniversary. The weather was fabulous with rain only once on our fourteen day cruise. The scenery was as expected - fabulous. Food and entertainment, tho not first class, was more than adequate. We especially enjoyed the two piano boys and the string quartet in the smaller lounges. The main stage ...
Had a great time on the ship! our waiter at silk was amazing But my New Michael Kors Bag that my Fiance got me in Cozumel was missing. I noticed that the maitre d was always in the hallway and at times cabin doors was left open. The bathroom seem to always have a strong runk urine ordor but on the over all the trip was great but we're afraid of cruising if they don't resolve this matter. We paid ...
Chose Emerald Princess as it had room for our large family group to travel to Alaska at the time most were available. We have traveled with Princess several times before, even on the Emerald Princess, & have always been most satisfied. Arrived in Seattle 2 days early before embarking to enjoy the city, which our family did, including the Space Needle & the Market, while residing at Marriott's ...
Just returned from a 7 night cruise on this ship and was really impressed with the ship. I had read a number of reviews with a mix of good and bad but struggle to find real negatives. The ship has the option for dining buffet or sit down dinner and would always go for sit down. The buffet lunch was repetitive but tell who doesn't like pizza or pasta. The shows on board again can only say ...
