This was our first cruise on Princess, although we have cruised many times on NCL and RCCL. The itinerary and price is what attracted us to this particular cruise of the Norwegian fjords. Overall, we were not disappointed.
We took care of our flights, hotel and transportation ourselves. We flew into LHR and took the excellent BlackBerry Car service (a private car with driver). We stayed at the ...
This was our first ever cruise with princess cruises after being loyal to p & o
it was also our first time to Norway
embarkation was effortless and on ship in 30 minutes this was only because of waiting for security to start doing their checks.
on boarding the ship it was WOW SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL SHIP.
The staff were so friendly and felt at home straight away.
our cabin was a very ...
Just returned from Med trip on Sky Princess with husband, son, and father-in-law. We went on Sapphire in 2018, so we were looking forward to a new ship, however we were really disappointed. Here's why:
Overcrowding
To compare with Sapphire, Sky is larger in height but not in width from what I could see, cabins are smaller too and we had a balcony this time, but was still smaller than the ...
I wanted to do another UK cruise go to places like Shetland and Newcastle as I’m a fan of the TV shows and also Liverpool as I had not been there. I’m just about through with long haul flights so I tried to book on the Iceland/Greenland tour but at the time (Feb), I was told all the solo cabins had been sold. I waited about 5 weeks and cabins became available again and I was able to book that tour ...
We haven’t cruised with Princess for the best part of 10 years, and never on the Island Princess.
Shes a classic style cruise liner and on the larger size of what we have been used to recently.
Embarking was quick and flawless at Southampton and we were in our cabin before 1pm.
An inside cabin to the rear of deck B, not far from the rear lifts and stairs. The “stateroom” was a good size ...
Regal Princess; Southampton to Southampton Aug 2023.
The ship is ok!
I do think it has a confusing layout, you are only able to go to some floors in some lifts, so you have to get off one lift to walk down corridors, past dozens of rooms, to get to the next lift to catch that one to get to the lower floors, which you need to do for getting off the ship and to go to the bars/ ...
Chose this cruise for overview of British Isles. Port call at Le Havre France was a plus as it allowed for excursions to Normandy Beaches or Giverny to see Monet's Garden.
Crew was superb. Excellent Cabin Steward, Bar and Restaurant Staff. Service was always friendly and timely.
Bars were enjoyable spaces and nice places to hang out. Especially liked the Good Spirits bar at atrium ...
This cruise was a long time in planning, then a 3 year delay due to COVID to be a bit of a disappointment.
This ship needs to be refreshed, stained mirrors, broken lamps.in lounges and worn upholstery. Dining rooms are chaotic at best, most night we were seated at tables that were not set. Several time what was listed on the menu and what was served were not the same: Roast pork came as ...
This was my first Princess cruise and far from a good first impression. If it wasn’t for the fact that I already have a cruise booked on Sky Princess for next month, I would not book with them again. All I can do is hope that the experience will be better on a newer ship.
I knew this was an older ship but having sailed on several which are older I was shocked to see the state of it, ...
I enjoyed my cruise even though the excursions were very expensive.
Since arriving home I have tried to contact Princess three times to ask them to refund the money they took from my account for a bar bill that is incorrect because I did not order any drinks. Their online form does not work and when I rang them I was told to call the USA. I think this is a shocking way to treat customers. ...
