1-10 of 111 Regent Seven Seas Explorer Cruise Reviews for Gourmet Food to the Mediterranean
We signed up for this cruise in 2020. We hoped by end of Oct. 2022 things with Covid would have settled down. Since this was to be our 6th Regent cruise, 2nd on Explorer, we believed the tours would be very good and safe. We believed we needed to be careful in many parts or the world now. Especially since we are in our seventies and walk a bit slower. We believed Regen would take good care of us ...
After reading some rather negative reviews, we were very pleasantly surprised by the service, food, décor – in short, pretty much everything – on our week-long Mediterranean cruise on the Regent Explorer. This was our third Regent cruise, and probably my 15th cruise overall.
Our positive experience began with embarkation. After a short bus ride from the pre-cruise hotel, we moved quickly ...
Unfortunately, The Regent Experience was not even close to what we were expecting.
1-. The staff is great and friendly, but there is no leadership and lack of training. That results in very poor service and sometimes no service at all, a lot of confusion and frustration. To be able to get a drink or a soda, was at times imposible.
2-. The quality of the food is average at best, I would ...
On our first evening in suite 844 the vibration was dreadful. The entire bathroom vibrated, as did the bedroom. Worst of all was the bed vibrating. Our entire bodies shook. It was distressing and made us both feel almost sick. First thing in the morning my husband reported the matter, but somehow it was not seen as a complaint! After three visits to reception, we eventually got a member of ...
We booked this cruise for the itinerary, and because the dates fit. Regent is more expensive than our usual cruise, but we wanted to see if it was worth the money; it was not, which is why the cruise only received 3 stars.
We had booked a 14 day cruise. Three months before the sailing date, Regent sent us a notice that the cruise itinerary was being dramatically changed, dropping many cities ...
We chose Regent for its all-inclusive, high crew to passenger ratio, itinerary choices, and superb service. The food quality and presentation compares to being served in a Michelin stared restaurant every evening. The accommodations are over-the-top luxury, and having laundry and pressing everyday included is such a treat. We hosted a cocktail party in our suite one evening before dinner. Our ...
Even though we had not been on the ship in three years due to the pandemic, very little had changed. Some of our favorite maitre'd's and servers had moved on to the Splendor as promotions or at their request. Service is still spectacular.
Not a cruise for singles. It is an older crowd and most folks are married or coupled. Guests from across the globe made this an interesting experience. ...
Just completed 2 b2b cruises, last one being a transatlantic.
In good conscience, I will have to give the Explorer 4 stars. It is a pretty ship, although with some jarring and too glitzy decor. The much touted “art” looks like something purchased by the yard in a warehouse. Some very nice art glass pieces in various locations. Many comfortable lounges and places to relax.
The staff is ...
As it claims to be the world most luxurious cruise ship, I chose this cruise trip to celebrate my husband's 60th special birthday with my family, hoping it to be a memorable one but it turned out to be totally disappointing!
Despite my previous arrangement with the cruise co about my husband's birthday before the trip and reminded them again on the first day we boarded the "Explorer" for the ...
While not experienced cruisers, we have been on five previous cruises over the past 25 - 30 years with Carnival, Norwegian, and Holland America. We chose this cruise due to an invitation from my sister to join her and her husband on what would be their sixth Regent cruise (they booked their seventh while onboard). We found the itinerary interesting which included Spanish, Portuguese, French, ...
