Overall a fantastic cruise with very good itinerary. We stayed in Pullman Hotel outstanding Miami airport the night pre cruise. The hotel has a free shuttle from airport to hotel and a $30 shuttle to the port which was great. The ship was brilliant and very Marc large which was good for not too many people in the same place at the same time. We did have one day when the weather wasn’t very good so ...

this was our 6th cruise and we always wanted to go to Panama. Everything was fantastic from start to finish, the crew, staff, food excurtions, weather we had cruised on Royal Caribean Harmony of the seas in 2018 and we felt it was too big for us, Norwegian Gem was a better size , we got to know a lot of people , we want to go back tomorrow. First time my wife and I had a cruise alone ...

We had the best time on our Panama Cruise on the NCL Gem. The staff are reallly the gems of this ship! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. You really had the feeling they all just wanted you to be happy and have a good time! The ship itself feels cozy and warm. It's beautiful and has so much entertainment. We had wonderful musical acts, magicians, comedians. Entertainment on this ship is so ...

We chose this trip because of the ship and the itinerary. We prefer the small ships because they have a more personal and intimate feel to them compared to the big ships like the Bliss, Epic, Encore etc. The entire cruise experience was great. We had a balcony stateroom and it was very spacious and comfortable. Yes, the ship is older so the room does show some wear and tear but it was very ...

This cruise for the money was awesome for a 10 day cruise in a balcony room we spent $3,200 this included drinks, gratuities, 3 specialty meals, & limited Wifi. There are "hidden" fees of $20 per person per day for a room clean but we were aware of this before hand and factored it into our budget. With that being said the trip to me felt well worth the money. The entertainment that was onboard was ...

We have always been against cruising; we don't enjoy being stuck in one place; get bored at all-inclusives and prefer road trips where we can go where the wind takes us. We fell into this because the itinerary was great with only 2 sea days and the price was so low. We went in with no expectations. Our son doesn't even like planes or boats but got excited due to the ship having laser tag and ...

The cruise was chosen for destination and length of cruise I wasn’t sure how the 21 day cruise would be seeing I had not been on a ship for this lengthy duration. It was wonderful. I found with the longer cruise I never felt rushed to fit everything in or over schedule my time. The Breakaway has far more outdoor deck space that can be enjoyed with relaxing furniture. There are outside ...

We've been on several Norwegian cruises before and chose this one primarily for the itinerary and the timing (as it fitted with when my husband and I could easily take a vacation from work.) However we were thrilled with the ship. We had been on much smaller ships before so were a little nervous about going on such a huge ship, fearing it wouldn't be for us. However, one of the best things about ...

My husband and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary on the cruise. We both loved the great food and all the interesting ports. There was never a dull moment and the ship was beautiful. The reservation process was very smooth onboard. We also enjoyed the game room with the VR rides. The buffet always had someone reminding use to wash our hands which was great. The staff always had a ...
