1-10 of 14 Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Regal Princess Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise Reviews
We chose this cruise for the itinerary. We liked the diverse ports. None really disappointed. Dubrovnik was a last minute substitution for Valletta. We really liked Croatia! Some ports I would like to return for a longer time, like Dubrovnik and Kotor. We were blessed with great weather. We did purchase the sanctuary for an at sea day. We liked the peaceful atmosphere and shade. It is an ...
We have cruised Europe many times, but, not to Greece, Turkey or Montenegro. We have now!!
We arrived in Barcelona, our 3rd visit, a day before our cruise and stayed at the Ramblas Hotel. Enjoyed the afternoon walking through the Gothic District and people watching. The Ramblas was comfortable and convenient and served a good complimentary breakfast.
Our embarkation on the ship, was the ...
We wanted to go back to Europe and taking this cruise was the easiest way to visit 10 ports in five countries. It stopped at several places on our bucket list, and we thoroughly enjoyed all of the excursions, food, and entertainment. It was a wonderful cruise that we would recommend to everyone.
The Princess is our favorite line because of the value for the money and comfort of the cabins. ...
The Regal is a large Ship but does not feel crowded. The Service, Food and Shows performed by the Cruise Dancers and Singers were all exceptional. A Top tip is to get your own Visa for St Petersburg and stay the night in a Hotel as it works out about the same as a Tour but you have the freedom of the City for 2 whole days. For those planning to download films prior to going an excellent service ...
We have cruised on the Princess ships several times and have always enjoyed the ships. The Regal was not designed well. It has no stairs in the middle and the ones on the end don't go all the way up or down. We would come to dead ends often and found many others that did the same, With no stairs everyone had to take the elevators. That made them way over crowded. You would have to wait for a long ...
Breaking this into easily digestable sections:
The ship: Regals obviously looks pleasing to the eye but don't let it fool you, despite the fancy new atrium and attractive fittings is a flawed ship (see scores for Royal). It has tried to improve on the design flaws of the Royal with minimal success. There are NO midship stair ways resulting in overburdened central lifts that (I'm not joking) can ...
First the good news- the ship is elegantly appointed...badly designed in many ways (but you've read all of that in other reviews). It is as clean and well maintained as many operating rooms I've seen !. The staff is hard working and well trained. Princess' embarkation and debarkation logistics are FABULOUS....well organized and uncomplicated for a huge ship. Port intensive with a fairly good ...
Our cruise experience was significantly affected by the loss of luggage for our adult daughter who was traveling with us. The ship itself was large but never felt like you had to walk miles to get anywhere. There were usually enough elevators to move passengers from floor to floor easily. The stabilizers on the ship had to be the best in the world because we NEVER felt the ship rock or move and ...
I will start with review of Regal, then the trip itself. This was our second cruise, last year we did Island Princess to Alaska. We have traveled to Europe, Israel and throughout the USA so we do have some experience traveling in general. I loved the idea of waking up everyday in a new port and not having the hassle of packing up and continually moving. I also am not a foody, so I don't care about ...
As a family we like to try new ships particularly large ships. We have sailed about 10 cruises in the last 8 years including large ships such as NCL Breakaway and Epic, Carnival Breeze, Celebrity Silhouette, Liberty of the Seas. We booked last minute and got a very good deal . I had sailed once before many years ago on Princess in the Caribbean and enjoyed it but on a much smaller ship. For us the ...
