Overall I would give the ship a 3 out of 5 and with a few quick wins could easily be a 4. The ship looks impressive internally but little things like the sun loungers need replacing ,, plenty of them but showing wear and tear.
The food overall is really good in the MDR and the Mediterranean night especially worthy of a mention. Staff are attentive and very friendly and any requests dealt with ...
I've sailed NCL, Princess and MSC.
Like MSC, I didn't go with high expectations based on reviews. The trick is to go with low expectations and then you won't be disappointed!
The truth is you can't pay Costa money and expect NCL quality. Value for money wise - I thought it was very good.
Good points:
Ship facilities (relatively new ship, clean throughout, nothing looked ...
First time travelling with MSC and will most likely be the last unless there are changes.
Let's start with the positives, the ship looks great, it's very clean and the majority of the staff are lovely even when they have to deal with a lot of rude customers! The paid 2 circus shows on board are worth the money but why do we have to pay for this? BBC1/BBC2/ITV on the cabin TV was a nice ...
MSC was the only cruise line sailing at this time of year in the Mediterranean, so this is what I had to choose. All my previous MSC sailings were bad, and I had said never again MSC.... Well, never never again.
Briefly - ship itself can't be faulted, maybe too much trust in a vessel winning the cruiser. Not so. Officers were non-existent the entire cruise except one brief (5-10 min) appearance ...
The ship itself is very beautiful, well structured and cleaned! There are many public spaces available for guests, different bars and outside areas where people can stay and enjoy it with not so much crowd.
The staff is generally very nice - sometimes some of them are too indiscrete especially for solo travelers and this doesen't help to make people feel comfortable, this is something that must ...
This was our 23rd cruise, but the first on Noble Caledonia. We were attracted to Noble by their itineraries, small ships, and the interesting and welcoming website: www.noble-caledonia.co.uk
The bottom line is that this cruise delivered, and Noble Caledonia is highly recommended to anyone who cruises for itinerary.
Because Noble Caledonia is little known in the US and on Cruise Critic, I ...
Well....where to begin? So many occasions where my father was unable to access facilities due to being disabled that our cruise was just ruined and tui have been useless in replying to our issues. Firstly, we booked in store and the staff failed to give my father an accessible aircraft seat even though he was booked as disabled. Highly embarrassing for him, being manhandled into a seat by pulling ...
November 2019. Over the last decade, there has been something of a revival in interest and the number of people cruising, and sadly an equal number of operators providing substandard cruises.
Having cruised 8 timespreviously with P&O, NCL, and RCI, we decided a change was needed as the last P&O cruise we took two years ago nearly put us off cruising for life.
We booked the cruise 8 months ...
Ship was lovely and exceptionally cjean. Service was excellent. Food was great with a wide variety of choice. Entertainment was excellent and overall was excellent cruise! Waiters and cabin staff very courteous and friendly and really went out of their way to please you. Restaurant managers were excellent. We upgraded to premium drinks package but would recommend it. We noticed that other ...
First things first the food is disgusting,the service is really bad, the workers disturb you 24/7 with food/drink packages even in a middle of your dinner...
The cruise itself is cheap but everything else is expensive
Me and my wife got a reserved table (which cannot be changed) near 6 other strangers we don’t know
You have to wait for about 10 minutes for the lift to arrive
We got a ...
