If you are stopping in Lisbon on your cruise, do not select the tour by Tuk Tuk. We paid almost $100 apiece for what was supposed to be a 3 hour tour. We got barely 2 hours of touring and much of that time was spent sitting and waiting to move from one place to another. Total rip-off!
Overall, this transatlantic cruise is a good deal. The stops before reaching Southampton were great even ...
We chose the Navigator for a change as it was visiting Boston, where we had never been, and overnighting in New York. We have completed many Transatlantics on board Independence and Queen Mary 2 as it’s a convenient way to get to and from Florida.
Boarding at Southampton was extremely quick and easy and we were very pleased with our cabin, 9500, which is an enormous family stateroom directly ...
We chose this cruise because the other (Jewel) transatlantic 's destination was Puerto Rico.
We were stuck with the dates.
Entertainment during the long cold crossing was far below our expectations. Nothing at all of intrest. We appreciated the ice skating show and some evening events. Not all. By far
The television showed the same programs on and on... Day by day.
Library was almost ...
This was our three cruise ,second with RC .big change since our last cruise with RCThe ship was not totally full so we had more room to spead out.registration was very smooth but we were offered VIP registration but signs directing you to this service were not available.Activities:Movies were offered in an outdoor setting this was fine near coastal waters but when the ship is in the middle of the ...
Over all the transatlantic cruise was great fun. I do enjoy the "at sea days". I felt the crew was "at a loss" at what to do with this many people on board for so many days. I thought the "meet and mingle" event was a joke...why did they even bother? So many people....cheap door prize drawings, nothing special, why should we attend this?
Agree with several of the other comments...Royal ...
Cruised to get a whole load of luggage back to UK, we are selling up in the USA.
Ship fine, but RC are now getting penny-pinching. The staff were great, as usual.
A transatlantic cruise is fine if you are happy to chill for 6-7 days, which I am.
The 'enrichment' talks were not at all good. The 1st presenter's overheads were fuzzy, unreadable. Apparently this was because a) the 'aspect ...
Overall, this cruise was ok. We had taken 2 other transatlantic cruises and this was not as enjoyable as the other two. The cabin was an excellent size but we had to call maintenance 5 times to try to get the thermostat fixed. The entire ship needs to be refurbished. The food was acceptable. For the age group of the majority of cruisers, the activities offered were minimal during the day. ...
I like the Voyager class of ships, so I enjoyed the Navigator. But cuts backs are obvious in food, entertainment and activities. Enjoyed the days at sea just wish there had been more to do. I really miss the professional crafters. The crafts provided by Royal Caribbean are the same old things that they have been doing for years. I don't think that the kits are worth the price.
The ...
My only small complaints are that there weren't enough variety of games or cards in the game room. And, the special lobster meal for $29.95 was horrible. The free lobster night was 100% better. Loved the duplicate bridge in the afternoon. Was a bit too cold to lay out by the pool. The ports were nice - different than normal repositioning ports. I would have preferred more fun activities ...
Really enjoyed this cruise, The only drawback is the 6 days at sea with no port call. There were plenty of things to do, but you still got bored a little. The ship was nice. We had an inside cabin with a view to the Promenade. Even with all the activity on the Promenade, our cabin was really quite. The food was great on board, we ate most of our dinners in Main dinning, and Breakfast and lunch in ...
