We had a good time. It seemed like a good itinerary but most of the ports had very little to do. The food was adequate. Dining room service was slow. They seemed understaffed. Wish they had a happy hour and afternoon tea. Some positive things: coffee maker in the room, fishes on the carpet to tell forward and aft, great entertainment, friendly staff and had only 75 percent occupancy.

I originally chose the Norwegian Sun for the 10 night Panama Canal cruise because I really wanted to go to the Panama Canal and I had been to a lot of other ports in the Caribbean but none of these ones . Prior to this cruise I have been on it many other cruises in different cruise lines.this is my second time sailing with Norwegian, I’ve sailed with princess four times, carnival wants and, ...
We selected this cruise because it went to both Cuba and Panama Canal. Overall we enjoyed the sailing and some of the ports, but the cruise line, the staff, the ship and meal service were all disappointing.
After booking, the flood of emails to upgrade, promote, and generally aggravate were endless. The constant gotcha extras which ran up the total cruise cost several thousand dollars a big ...
I know this is an older ship, but I wasn't expecting to have to endure toxic fumes from adhesive as they were laying new carpeting on the main stairs. They also had to access our cabin balcony to paint it, which left the balcony inaccessible while scraping and painting the balcony. I never met our cabin steward and I never encountered anyone who I felt went out of their way to be friendly and/or ...
We normally sail RC and Celebrity. We gave NCL a try based on this itinerary. We enjoyed all ports and most port excursions. The Train, bus and boat adventure in Costa Rica was our only disappointment. Most of the sparse vegetation you could see from the train was dried up. Most of the excursion time was taken up by waiting for several bus loads of people to arrive and board each car. Not worth ...
Great itinerary.
Great time to travel while the little ones are in school.
I traveled solo. I met up with a great solo group facilitated by Clarissa. She was genuinely friendly. And very helpful, making reservations, getting us priority seating.
My room steward was very pleasant. I had packed my motion sickness patches with my checked luggage. She was able to locate my bags before ...
We recently returned from a 10 day cruise on the Norwegian Sun and were quite pleased. We had a mid-ship balcony stateroom, and it was convenient to move about the ship. The buffets served plentiful food, and we had no complaints. We ate breakfast at the buffets and usually ate lunch and dinner in the Seven Seas (main) dining room. If you like to share a larger table with several folks, the ...
This was an older ship, remodeled but just so so
The dining was not very good.
Breakfast time it was hard to find tables and no one helped you find one
Waiters didn't offer Coffee or anything to drink. You had to get it all yourself
Someone should walk around offering refils
The speciality restaurants were good as well as the food, service great there.
Main dining room the food ...
I chose this cruise to go to different islands.This trip was a big disappointment.Being disabled i travel with a scooter. Asked for a handicapped room. Was told where were none available. They asked for the measurements of my scooter which i supplied. Then i was told that the scooter could fit in all door on the ship. Which i found out was not true when i arrived on board the ship. Went to ...
We wanted to see the island of Cuba for many years and finally got to. It did not disappoint.
NCL helped with the Visa and provided a lot of information about the island before you disembark. The ship is one of the smaller ships in the NCL lineup but it was renovated in 2018 and very well organized. Very few times did we ever stand in line at the buffet and when we did there were just a ...
