My daughter asked us. It was fun to be with the grandchildren. Really high waves.
Our room was nice.
The excursions were disappointing. We really did not get to enjoy any country. Resorts offer better excursions and you don’t have to wait in lines as often.
The pool on the ship was not greAt and very overcrowded.
I thought the food would be better.
The people that worked on the ...
We chose this cruise based solely on the itinerary and although the boat, food & service were pretty sub-par, ports we did get to visit were great! Travel time to and from the excursions ate up the entire time at the ports which really stunk! In all honesty, this may be our first and last cruise with Norwegian or any other ship all together since it left such a “bad taste in our mouths.” We felt ...
I have sailed with NCL twice before and each time we have had minor issues but this time it was a total nightmare. Service was well below sufficient, staff was incredibly rude, 2 out of the 11 nights we were awoken at 4am with a technician outside our door for 45 minutes doing some work to try and get the toilets to flush. The boat was extremely rocky to the point that they had to put out barf ...
We chose this cruise for it's Itinerary to the Panama Canal, Columbia and Central America. We read reviews of the Norwegian Ships, and ports, and most importantly past word of mouth reviews. The Freestyle cruising is fine, but we were unable to choose the restaurants, because they were all filled up from the 1st day of the nearly 2 week cruise. The food overall, was the same, whether you ate in ...
We chose this cruise because it spanned both Christmas and New Year, and travelled to many of the Central American destinations we wanted to visit. Ship was clean and well maintained. Dining was Freestyle, meaning you wear what you want and dine whenever the facilities are open. The normal dining venues were so good that we didn't even use the Specialty dining tickets that came with the ...
We had a group of 12 of us sail aboard the NCL Jade over Christmas and New Years for an 11 day Panama Canal Cruise.
Food - We had 4 specialty dining reservations to use on our cruise. We did the Teppanyaki and Cagney's which were very good. Teppanyaki was entertaining and the food was good. Cagney's was very good, steak was tender and cooked perfect. Service in both these restaurants was ...
Wife and I had a great time on the ship. We had bumps in the road per say though. Administratively it was very poor. The ship had broke down the week before and Norwegian concealed that the ship wasn't repaired. They lied that the ship was repaired and there would be no delays even after several phone calls after I found out about the problem from a friend who seen the ship was broke down in ...
We missed one port due breakdown on previous cruise but NCL reimbursed us.Ship was very well maintained.Food quality in buffet was good as long as you didn't order eggs sunny side up or over easy.La Cucina menu lacked many Italian basics such as lasagna etc.Moderno was OK but the steaks were overcooked and tough.Cagney's food quality was EXCELLENT.Service in all fine dining was excellent.The main ...
This is our fourth NCL cruise. We chose this particular ship because of itinerary and dates of cruise. We have really enjoyed our past three NCL cruises (all on different ships). We found this ship/crew to be lacking in the service based on past trips. We felt that if you chose to dine in one of the free dining rooms they both really lacked the level of service we received on past cruises and the ...
For me, not enough American music. Was on the Dawn and Breakaway, both had much better food (variation), music and entertainment was just OK. Comedians were pretty good. 80% of the guest on this cruise was 70 and older. Panama was supposed to be 4hr and it was 7hrs. They showed us the same on Atlantic and Pacific sides. In Mexico we did salsa cooking and dancing was good, but when it was time ...
