This was a last minute booking, literally. We were docking in Southampton on a Celebrity Cruise when we booked this sailing departing two days later. Previously only sailed with Seabourn and Celebrity, if we had accepted the poor reviews of this ship at face value we would never have booked it - and that would have been a shame. All the speciality dining restaurants were excellent to the extent ...

Before I sailed I looked everywhere for a recent review and could not find one so here is everything I wanted to know. I (49F)have cruised before my daughter (24F) had not, we are from the UK so chose a UK cruise on an older ship, figuring if she liked that then cruising is for her. We sailed from Southampton on the 14th Sept, and ended in Southampton on 24th Sept 2023. We visited ...

Even though we live in Scotland and the on,y stops in Great Britain were in Scotland, We were taking our grandson home to his parents couple days before this cruise so we thought why not . Even though there was five cruise ships in at same time u wouldn’t have known. Everything was seamless, security, getting on ship . Restaurants were open bars were open to welcome guests on . Our room was ...

On a full ship, we found the service excellent in every bar and eatery. All restaurants serving beautiful food & huge selection in restaurants & buffet, so could not fault anything The entertainment was excellent with some of the best shows we had seen on any cruise ship So much to enjoy The only restaurant not rated by other travellers was the Chinese, so we avoided that as our favourite was ...

Having sailed with others, we are restricted due to the school holidays; where my partner works and it can limit our choice and availability. We flew to Copenhagen and enjoyed an amazing city before cruising. Everything from getting on the ship at Copenhagen to leaving it at Stockholm; was fantastically executed. Food and choices along with entertainment was the best I've experienced to ...

Honest Review of NCL Dawn

We have cruised several times, mostly on NCL. What I like about NCL is the freedom to eat when and where I like. I see a lot of reviews that mention nickel and diming. We like NCL because we only pay for what we want. No one will force you to buy something you do not want or need. Usually, NCL is fairly inexpensive compared to other cruise lines. It is funny when someone mentions certain features ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

We felt a cruise would be a great way to visit the European cities along the Baltic Sea. We understood the Dawn to be an older ship, but found it well taken care of. The food (mostly buffet) was consistently very good at each meal. The staff (specifically our room steward) were very attentive in all of their interactions with those on board. Additionally, the entertainment was beyond what we ...

We are having an amazing time on our cruise! Spent 2 days in London prior to cruise at Guardsmen Hotel near Buckingham Palace and really enjoyed it. Left on National Express due to train strike and got to Southampton around 11am and onboard by 12pm! Very smooth embarkation by NCL. Each port has been lovely with excursions at each, loved Blarney Castle and Giants Causeway. Bring layers!! Some days ...

We had a fabulous cruise but thought we only had 1 tender port...we had 3 and each one was a total disaster. people were lined up for as much as 2 hours waiting for a tender with no communication from the ship. same thing happened on a bus excursion - 2 buses had an accident but no one told the guests so we sat there for 90 minutes waiting.terrible communication definitely need some guest ...

For our first post-Covid cruise, my friend and I chose a tour of the British Isles on the Norwegian Dawn. (This was my first time on Norwegian, but my friend had sailed with them several times in the past.) We flew into Heathrow and the Norwegian representative was right on site, whisking us quickly away to very modern buses - or as they say, coaches. It was an hour and a half drive to ...
