Norwegian Panama Canal & Central America Cruise Reviews

This cruise was very disappointing. Of all my past 18 cruises this was the worst. I had sailed Norwegian twice prior to COVID and it was very good. We were very disappointed in the lack of service and poor entertainment likely caused by Norwegians cost cutting measures. Entertainment in the theatre was not enjoyable due to the lack of quality performances, repeated performances, and the ...

Very disappointed with NCL on our latest cruise. The ship was dated, should have done our homework on this ship first, yes our fault but not only that the ship broke down in Colombia, no electric which meant no air con, extremely hot in Columbia! We had to stay in port overnight but 2 full days there! Was allowed off the Ship but nowhere to go, no shuttle buses were put on, Columbia a bit of a ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary and the 3.7 reviews. Someone must have gotten paid to give them a decent rating. Perhaps the specialty dining would have been worth eating but we actually lost weight on a 20 day cruise because I refuse to pay extra for food that should be part of the cruise The tea was tea flavored beverage. The orange juice was Orange juice cocktail. Grilled fish....what ...

Cruise number 14 for us. Panama Canal passage on the list of " must do ". The price seemed very reasonable, although with Norweigan the extras add up like one of those $29 airfares that actually costs $229 when you pay for all the necessary extas. We had put in a "bid" for an upgrade that works like an auction over about a week period. Day before cruise received an email stating that our bid ...

My wife and I booked this Panama Canal cruise back in August 2022. We used the Norwegian people to book this cruise so you would think they would know their ships. A inside cabin was requested and booked. Once we got on board we discovered that there was 2 sizes of inside cabins, The one we got was 5 square feet shorter than the other inside cabin. It was so small that you only had inches ...

This was our 6th cruise with Norwegian and our 15th cruise It started with embarkation in san Pedro we checked in online and they gave us a time to show up at port. Only to find a large tent in a parking lot with a 3hr line to check in this was the worst experience ever . Never seen such disorganization. The first stop in Cabo if you didn't buy excursion you could not go on tender for 2 ...

We wanted to get out of the north cold country so we chose NCL for this 15 day Panama Canal Cruise. Though I had 19 previous cruises on NCL, We 1) Were not called to board until nearly 2:00 PM and there was so much built up tension by those waiting to board that we were almost trampled by the rush. 2) Rooms were not available until after the safety drill. (3:45PM) 3) Luggage was not at ...

What went wrong. We had booked a balcony stateroom (number 8766) for a Panama Canal Cruise from Miami to Los Angeles, sail date 21 January 2023. We were invited to bid for an upgrade which we did, quite close to the sail date, cost: £335 per person (x2). As you can see from the picture of the suite attached the room shows a window with a sea view and was described as a “Family Suite”. ...

This was my first ever cruise, and even though I had read the reviews that this was an awful cruise line I didn’t think it could be as bad and went with an open mind… before I start the review, NCL when things are going well may well be a nice experience, but I judge a service on how they handle issues or problems and hopefully without sounding like a Karen, NCL has got to be the most ...

I had a trip to see the Panama Canal on my bucket list. Never thought I would get to cross it off my list. My wife and I cruised with 3 other couples we have traveled with before. Great company on a great ship. The food was wonderful and the entertainment was amazing. My wife just had surgery 3 weeks before embark time. Due to this we did not get to do the normal shore excursions we enjoy, but ...
