Oslo to Europe Cruise Reviews

When reading the Hurtigruten publicity for the refitted Trollfjord you would expect to find an exquisite small cruise ship, what you get is an overcrowded cheaply converted coastal ferry. The standard cabins are small with low cost fittings. Our bathroom cabinet didn’t close and the shower fitting fell to bits. The bed was uncomfortable. Dinning was not the highlight one would hope for. ...

Just returning from Iceland intensive cruise and were very pleased with the trip. All of the Azamara ships are old but they are well maintained. I am sure if you looked for it you could spot areas which could be improved but we don’t approach a holiday in that way and didn’t see anything we were unhappy about. As appears in most reviews cabins are on the small side and so is the shower room. ...

I chose this cruise because the itinerary looked good and azamara was owned by Royal Caribbean but was higher end. This by far is the absolute worst cruise comyI have been on. I have gone on many Princess, royal caribbean, Norwegian and celebrity cruises without any complaints. Issues with Azamara began prior to the cruise. Azamara lost all their information of my fully paid cruise, hotel ...

This was our first Azamara cruise, and with continuing issues with their website, we were a little concerned about the whole experience. I'm used to having all my documents in hand and luggage tags on all my bags before I board, and that just didn't happen; but that being said, it was the smoothest embarkation ever! We realized early on that we love being on a smaller ship. The staff was ...

We were looking forward to getting back into cruising for a long time and the prospect of cruising on the Oceania we had come to love was very exciting. We booked a 28 day B2B cruise of the Norway and UK starting 5th August 2023 from Oslo. First impressions. The ship looked great. We had only sailed on the Marina previously. Boarding - was efficient and we were herded onboard quickly ...

We stayed in an Oceania Suite where we enjoyed the personal staff who cared for us and our suite. They were absolutely wonderful. In fact the entire crew was wonderful. They were always smiling, pleasant, professional and very eager to help. We did not receive our luggage from Lufthansa until the seventh day of the cruise. We greatly appreciated the efforts of Concierge staff for tracking this ...

We had never been to the Nordic countries and chose to combine the scenic 2 cruise with 15 day land based tour of Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Estonia. We enjoyed the overall experience and were satisfied with most of the staff and very satisfied exploration team. The food and food presentation was excellent . The exploration team explained what they were trying to achieve and explained why ...

We have been travelling with Scenic for over 15 years now. We continue to travel with this company as we have always had excellent tours and cruises as well as exceptional tour directors. The tours we have experienced cover land, river and ocean. Scenic Eclipse, both 1 and 2 are beautiful ships but most of all the crew, food and excursions excel themselves. We did Antarctica in early ...

My wife and I travelled on Scenic Eclipse 1 in September 2019. The ship had been launched much later than expected, and had only been on a few cruise segments before we boarded, and it still had many problems - not least the Discovery Team (i.e. the "expert" guides on board). It was our first cruise with Scenic, and looked destined to be our last. I wrote to Scenic to complain. They responded ...

We chose this cruise because of the itinerary and we weren't disappointed, getting to sail 81 degrees north and seeing Walrus and Polar Bears in their natural habitat were highlights. The ship itself at first appeared a bit too glitzy (we normally sail Seabourn) but we came to like its different spaces and varied lighting. The cabin was very comfortable and the crew were amazing. Lots of ...
