Saga Cruises Canary Islands Reviews

Although our cruise choices are by no means exclusively with Saga, we chose this cruise as we have enjoyed several cruises with them in the past and this one particularly suited us having recently had a few health issues to cope with. We're never quite convinced that Saga's all-inclusive offering is the value for money they claim it to be but the fact that (nearly) everything is paid for in ...

We wanted some winter sun and friends had recommended Saga. We had never sailed with them before but do prefer smaller ships to the large monstrosities that the 5-6,000 passengers. Very good journey to Portsmouth and very smooth embarcation, our cabin was ready when we boarded. The cabin was very clean and the bathroom adequate the only negative was the lack of room in front of the wardrobe. The ...

As first timers we were not aware of Saga’s early booking system with its large discounts so we ended up paying £17,202 for a deluxe adapted cabin. There are only 10 adapted cabins on the ship so we considered ourselves fortunate just to get one. GOOD POINTS: 1. The booking procedure and all queries were dealt with professionally by the knowledgeable Saga telephone staff. 2. It was a ...

The ultra all inclusive service by Saga was the main attraction when booking , transport door to door , insurance , excursions were excellent . On arrival the time from being dropped off at the terminal to eating lunch in the open sitting Grill was less than 20 minutes . Booking the included alternative dinning was no problem booking the 3 venues for out 14 day cruise . The food without ...

I am writing this from a disabled passenger's point of view. We chose this company because of its reputation for caring for those who do not move so easily. The taxi arrived at the promised time and we loaded it up with our cases and aids. The journey from Cheltenham to Portsmouth has an estimated time of around two hours. The morning was very wet and unpleasant. Shortly after we set off I ...

Last year we went on the Discovery same time similar itinerary, and I gave it 5 stars for everything, so we were happy to book this cruise on her sister ship. Transfer to ship excellent, boarding ok, cabin only had one chair and one tooth mug ,soon sorted, first disappointment , no art classes only craft, never mind not a deal breaker, first shower, flooded the whole bathroom floor, used all the ...

Being picked up from home is such a joy. Taken to Portsmouth, checked in and shown to the Grill for our lunch whilst the luggage was being taken to our room. We had been on the sister ship last time so thought we would try this one plus a bit of warmer weather would be good in winter. The staff were excellent as usual, food selection was vast and very tasty. Entertaining was good, could ...

Standards have fallen on SAGA. The restaurant staff all seem hassled. Food delivered via cabin service was not hot. Disembarkation at Portsmouth was lengthy and dispiriting. The overall atmosphere is a cross between a retirement home and a golf club bar. The captain seemed to use that as an excuse for a sense of humour that belongs in the 1970s. The best thing is the hardworking ‘hotel’ staff who ...

First cruise since the pandemic we sailed on4 December 2022 Also this was our first Saga cruise.even We have now reached the qualifying age I'm 80 and her indoors is a young 70. We had cruised many times before but never with Saga We were picked up spot on time and delivered to Southampton without a hitch. We were helped on board (wife is wheelchair user)within 30 mins we were in our ...

The way we were treated by Saga Management means we will never travel with Saga again. Tested at Southampton both LFT and PCR and embarked on Spirit of Adventure. First impressions are very good. The ship was beautiful, the cabin was spacious and well appointed. Public areas are immaculate and staff well trained and attentive. However, once the ship had set sail, we were informed by the ...
