We are experienced travelers on both ocean and river cruises as well as independent travel over the past 20 years. This was our fourth cruise with Oceania, we did two before COVID and one after; but this was the first on Marina. We selected this cruise because of the itinerary which included the fjords of southern Chile and Antarctica. Our previous cruises with Oceania were on the smaller ships ...
Boarding was seamless and the ship was in excellent condition for wear and tear and cleanliness
Our cabin was immaculate, however we experienced poor sleep due to hard beds and pillows and the shower was the smallest I have ever experienced on a cruise ship. The games deck was the best I have seen for senior passengers but not so for young passengers.
The taste of the water was ...
We took this cruise with the intention of seeing the Northern Lights, which we did. This was our third cruise with Viking and they do a great job in taking care of their passengers. The boats are immaculate and the food is excellent.
On the cruise, the second half of the cruise, and our planned excursions, were cancuelled due to weather. Consequently, we were unable to see planned areas and ...

We have never been on Cunard and it had a lot of hype as to the quality so decided to try them on a five night culinary cruise from Sydney.We have dome many cruises so perhaps our expectations were too high.
The boarding process was good and seamless.We were in Our Voyage number :Q305
FROM Jan 28th untill Feb 2nd
Veranda Room.The room was disappointing the shower floor was delaminating ...
To say that we were disappointed with this cruise is an understatement.
We are loyal Cunard cruisers, having completed 14 other cruises on Cunard ships, including QE2, Queen Mary 2, Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth. We are huge fans of the brand and would always rave about everything in relation to the ship, ship facilities, crew, service. They were the epitome of luxury.
First the good. ...
We cruise a lot including river cruises, world cruises, expedition cruises and bareboat charters. For years we have heard from fellow cruisers that an Antarctica expedition was one of their most enjoyable cruises. Unfortunately, we did not have that experience and would not recommend Viking Expeditions.
The travel and transfers were extremely uncoordinated, confusing and overall very ill ...
Thank you, CA_TX_cruiser, for sharing your experience with us. While sometimes adjustments are necessary to preserve the integrity of your voyage, we're sorry to learn our response to the...
We were meant to go on this trip in 2022 but Covid got in the way. So we were really looking forward to this cruise. Given the brochures outlined that we were going to experience the finest cuisine on the seas we had very high expectations. Unfortunately we were extremely disappointed. We would advise anyone thinking of booking a cruise with Oceania don't do it on the basis of their promises ...
We choose this cruise because it left Melbourne which suited us. we always loved Silversea‘s, and that was the Reason to cruise with them, sad to say this is the last cruise with them ,I can’t understand how people can give this cruise five stars. This has been the worst cruise we had with Silversea‘s ever. If you do the ships tour, it is beautiful. no doubt about it I have no trouble recommending ...
It’s been 2 weeks and no one from Azamara bothered to contact us so I’m post my issues with the cruise on Cruise Critic so other know what to be prepared for. This was our 40th cruise on several cruise lines and can easily say it was the worse cruise ever taken. There were multiple issues that included health and safety issues, lack of communication between senior staff, and an attitude from some ...
We had not cruised for several years (pandemic and health issues) and were really excited to try a luxury cruise line. All of our previous 20 or so cruises have been with Premium cruise lines. We should have tried a short Oceania cruise before committing to a World Cruise so the fact that we were so disappointed was our fault entirely. On the positive side, the ship size was perfect. We were able ...
