Norwegian Jewel Cruise Reviews for Romantic to Alaska

My sister and I were excited to experience Alaska, and we especially wanted to see whales and the beautiful scenery. This was my first cruise as a Platinum Latitude member. Expedited embarkation was excellent. The behind the scenes tour was great. Loved having the additional specialty dining meals and the free bottle of wine. We took the transfer from the Anchorage airport to the Seward cruise ...

My wife and I just returned from four consecutive B2B cruises all aboard the Norwegian Jewel. Embarking September 25 from Seward Alaska and finally disembarking in Singapore on November the 11th. 1. Cruise 1 – 25th Sep Seward to 2nd Oct Vancouver 7 days 2. Cruise 2 – 3rd Oct Seattle to 19th Oct Tokyo 16 days 3. Cruise 3 – 19th Oct Tokyo to 30th Oct Taipei 11 days 4. Cruise 4 – 30th Oct ...

An Alaska cruise has been on our bucket list for quite some time so when planning this, I saw that the Jewel was a potential itinerary. We sailed on the Jewel back in 2007 (Italy and France) and thoroughly enjoyed it. Seeing that it was renovated recently, we thought we'd give it a try and we were glad that we did. My wife and I sailed with our two daughters (in their 20's). We booked the ...

I planned on booking this cruise for June 2020, but we all know what happened. While 2022 allowed cruising to Alaska from Vancouver, we opted to wait it out for another year to see how they operate with covid being endemic. Now this year, all restrictions are gone, allowing us to freely move around like the pre-pandemic days. I booked everything: flights, hotels, rental cars, post-cruise ...

Never cruised before so specifically chose to do north bound Alaska as always wanted to do this cruise and just in case cruising wasn't for us we could at least say we have done it. But we had nothing to worried about as we loved every moment of the entire cruise. The ship felt so fresh and luxurious. The oceanview room was larger than we expected and felt like a high level compact hotel room. ...

The price for the Alaskan trip was amazing, so we booked it! The weather wasn't too bad and sailing was great, very smooth. What saw was amazing, I will cruise again to Alaska, looking at late July or early August for my next one. Also wanted to try a new cruise line. The Jewel is an amazing ship the entire staff was so great, very helpful, from the minute you arrive to board the ship, to ...

Although, we have cruised many times with NCL, this is our first time on this ship, the first time in Alaska and the first time in an aft cabin and we have loved all of it. NCL have excelled themselves with this itinerary and with this ship, we can't fault a single thing! Alaska is amazing, beautiful and the weather was very kind to us with sunshine every day, we will definitely be back! We ...

We lucked out with this cruise. Being late in the season, there was only half the capacity of guests. Everyone on board enjoyed VIP service from the friendly, attentive crew. We chose the trip for the itinerary: starting in Vancouver, to Alaska, then south to San Francisco and LA - a nice variety of ports and scenery. It was our first time to Alaska and we are already planning another so we can ...

After doing a short 5 day Alaska Trip about 5 years ago we really wanted to see more. This time we flew up to Anchorage and did the train to Seward. Probably the highlight for us was the Train thru Denali . We checked in for our 4 hour train trip and had our room keys in hand. Walking onto the ship was very calming. No Sail away party or cheezy pics that you had to take to get onboard. ...

Why did I choose this cruise? We choose this cruise because it appeared to have more port calls than a similar Princess cruise. Lessons learned: Look carefully at the times and places of the port calls, and ability to add a land option. With the NCL itinerary, we could not add excursions on the embarkation or debarkation days nor any days before or after the cruise. Tell people about ...
