Norwegian Fjords Senior Cruises Reviews

For our first cruise, there were positive experiences, including the (expensive) onshore excursions to the stunning Norwegian scenery, the good choice of on board food and dining, the lovely flowers and gifts from Fred Olsen Cruises for our silver wedding anniversary, and the high standard of housekeeping in our room by our cabin stewardess. Unfortunately there were many negative experiences ...

We departed Southampton and followed Norwegian Prima out of the port and into the English Channel. This seven night cruise was the third and final part of our "Three Cunard Queens" holiday and took us to the majestic fjords of southern Norway. This ship is in great shape and the interior is opulent and elegant throughout. We noticed that exterior handrails were very weathered and required ...

I chose this cruise as I liked the itinerary. I was dubious about going on the Aurora, but the fact that it was Adult Only helped seal the deal and the price was right. Why was I dubious about the Aurora? This was my 3rd trip on her, my first being in 2019 just before the pandemic. My experience then was great. Good ship, lovely crew, good service and great food choices. Having experienced ...

We enjoy cruising and although we have tried a couple different lines, we always return to Royal. Like all RCI ships, Anthem is stunning in many ways, but for us it is about the great service, excellent food, and wonderful shows, and ultimately the itinerary. We wanted to see Norway, so this was perfect for us. Southampton proved to be a good homeport. Our trip from Heathrow to the terminal was ...

Cruise was wonderful, a relatively small ship so went right into port all days apart from one. We stopped at 7;different ports which was fantastic. We liked the ship, staff were great, entertainment very good, food very good too. Our only negative comments would be that there were no water points where you could fill up water bottles. You could order small bottles to your room but it was ...

We love the Balmoral because of the traditional raked stern that allows you to sit out on the balconies, either for lunch on Deck 10, or for drinks in the evening on Deck 8. You can then watch the landscape drift past, for example in the fjords or the Kiel Canal on this cruise. This time we moved our Dining to the Avon restaurant on Deck 10 instead of being in the main Balindalloch. As it was ...

We had been on this ship twice before - once during Covid19 as ships were starting to sail again and that was an amazing cruise actually despite all of that. Then a year later to Spain and France and now this one to the Fjords. The last two times we got the Key package. Embarking and disembarking were super quick and it wouldn’t have mattered had we got the key or not. It looks like it’s ...

good and not so good about anthem of the seas Not so good- The ship is really not that well designed. When I say that there are highlights and lowlights. Highlights are the usual large theater with balcony as seen on other RCCL ships. Also the Two70 lounge is a nice space that is comfortable and techy. See other comments below about sportsplex and pools. Also the casino is below ...

On October 2022 I booked a 14 days Baltic cruise in P&O Britanny, which I paid on front, because the pound-dollar rate was the lowest, about 1.12 ( currently 1.28 ), no service charge, free launderette, overnight in Stockholm and Copenhague, calls in Helsinki and 3 more small cities. A few weeks later the cruise was cancelled by P&O and I had to find something to replace it within the same dates ...

Chose Arcadia for a number of reasons - been on before, adults only + Fjords for 1st time. Few positives but many negatives. Positives ... We were in a balcony on Sun Deck which, according to deck plan, had a solid wall going aft and nothing above us. Wrong! The wall had 2 fire exit doors which were latchable from the inside and Sun beds above us that were usually laid out @ 7:17am on a ...
