Review for a Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise on Norwegian Viva

We sailed on the 'Viva' or actually tried to, but there was a dock workers' strike in Athens. Consequently, the ship couldn't leave until early the following morning, which meant that our first night in Istanbul was cancelled (as well as the corresponding excursions). Also, this apparently required a course correction which placed the Mykonos stop first, and Santorini second, rather than ...

We choose this cruise because of the itinerary and to sail on a new ship. The food and service were excellent. Having sailed on the Prima on a transatlantic cruise last year we appreciated the small changes that have improved on the Prima design.
We love the Indulge for breakfast and lunch, still surprised how underrated it seems. Freshly prepared food, quick friendly service so much better ...

We selected this cruise because of the itinerary. We had a late start through no fault of NCL which resulted in changes to the ports of call for the first few days. As a result, it was necessary for us to use a tender in Santorini and it which took 3-4 hours for all passengers to disembark. Very disorganized and no communication from NCL.
You are unable to make dinner reservations for the ...

We chose this cruise because it was the newest Ship, the itinerary (ports of call), and the feed back we got from people that sailed on other NCL ships including the Prima. What a waste of money..... It was a premium price to be on this ship compared to any others during the time including other NCL ships doing an Eastern Mediterranean route. We could have booked a similar trip on Celebrity in ...

This is the second cruise we’ve been on with NCL. (The first was on the Pearl.) We’ve been wanting to go to Greece for a while now. Our travel agent told us a cruise would be the best way to see a variety of the islands. First of all their website is slow and horrible. When you purchase anything it takes a while to show up on your account. Don’t bother uploading your photo. We tried several times ...

We are repeat Sixthman cruisers and on this cruise the music did not disappoint, but Norwegian cruise line certainly did! The buffet food would be horrible in a public school cafeteria let alone a cruise ship. It was only a 5 day cruise but there were so many repeated menu items! The specialty dinners were just OK. In the Brazilian restaurant, we were served spoiled filet minon...it smelled ...

I chose this cruise because of the itinerary and because we had sailed with NCL before.
We left Athens and went to Rhodes, Cyprus, Santorini, Kusadasi, Istanbul, Jerusalem, Haifa(Galilee), Pathos, Mykonos, and then back to Athens. We spent 4 days in Athens before the cruise. It was blistering Texas hot while in Athens and on the cruise. We toured Athens, 105 degrees when we went up to the ...

I thoroughly enjoyed my trip. This was my first NCL cruise (I usually prefer Princess.). I traveled solo and appreciated NCL efforts to gather solo travelers. Many of us did end up eating meals or attending entertainment together. I picked this cruise because of the 11 day trip with Ports of call including Greek Islands, Israel, Istanbul & Ephesus Turkey. I booked through Vacations to Go ...

We chose this cruise due to the itinerary featuring ports in Israel, Turkey and Greece. We had sailed on the Norwegian Jade before and had enjoyed our previous experience.
Airport Transfer
We paid for the transit from the airport, due to the fact that we did not have a lot of time between the arrival of our flight and the sailing. The coach bus experience was fine, although the check in ...

Our steward is great. Entertainment overall is not bad. Shopping is lousy. Casino is lousy. Art is not good too. Too many hidden or complicated charges on cruise. Constantly feels like it’s a game to dodge not being over charged. Not a relaxing experience at all.
Have to queue up for everything to get credit back (so outdated whereby it intentionally makes it hard to get money back, in today’s ...
