Tahiti (Papeete) to the South Pacific Cruise Reviews

This ship does not seem to have a lot of recent reviews so I will leave one. We did the 10-day Tuamoto cruise coupled with the regular 7-day Society Islands (Bora Bora etc.) cruise, so we were on the ship for 17 days in total. Another 20 or so of our fellow cruisers did the same thing, so we got to know a number of people during our time on-board. We really enjoyed the itinerary, the crew, the ...

We were so excited to go on this cruise as it was our first family vacation in over 4 years. We have cruised several times before and have always had a positive experience. This was the first time we had gone on a cruise with Norwegian, but we had heard so many good things about this cruise line I didn't expect all the issues we had! This was the first time I have travelled internationally ...

Chose this cruise for the unique opportunity to see both French Polynesia and Hawaii, and the ports of call did not disappoint. What did disappoint was the lack of effort and variety that comprised activities while at sea. With 4 straight days at sea, we were hoping for a full option of things to do, but the daily itinerary was pretty much recycled from one day to the next. There were not a lot of ...

Excellent service on the ship. Small ship, not too many people, this is good. Too many giant screens, not necessary at all especially when listening to a band playing music. The band Hotwire is excellent, if you want to dance. Disappointed that all communication are in English only. On other companies it is in multiple languages. Food was just ok. Japanese and Italian restaurants ...

We used the NCL Promotional Air - Most everyone had to as there are only two scheduled flights to Tahiti per day. They got us to LAX then had 3 maybe 4 charter flights to Tahiti. Lucky for us we were on one of the latter flights that was maybe 2/3 full so we could spread out. The seats in the economy section of the “Air Tahiti Nui” Airbus A310 were most uncomfortable. We arrived with no ...

We chose this cruise firstly for the itinerary but also for the ship. We have been on the Spirit before and were looking forward to seeing the ship refitted. We were not disappointed, even though one of the entertainment areas was still being refitted. The new atrium was a great place to have trivia and other games and it was a nice comfortable spot for a coffee or something stronger. The new ...

We both with Norwegian spirit to sail to Tahiti and Bora Bora and other Polynesian and Hawaiian Islands. The locations were gorgeous the cruise ship workers we're very helpful and friendly. Norwegian Cruise Lines and it's management left a very sour taste in our mouths. On day two they begin to run out of alcohol mixers and products such as pina colada which for a tropical island vacation is a ...

Tahiti to Hawaii inaugural cruise for this port and updated ship. They took up all passports and would not give back as stated till 6 days into cruise after visiting other countries. Forgot to load orange juice onto ship. No one knows anything. Told no daily puzzles or library area by ft desk. Wrong as a Multifunctional Room on top floor. Have canceled or changed over half of shore excursions ...

We have been cruising for a long time and we were really excited to try NCL, but it was quite disappointing, considering how much we paid and in comparation with other cruises. To start explaining, they keep adding service charges for EVERYTHING, and the day before leaving we found out that they were also charging a room service charge: $16 per person, PER DAY. Considering how much we paid for ...

This was about our 38th cruise on various ships and have been to all 7 continents. We picked this one due to the cruise around the Tahiti islands then around the Hawaii islands. We previously cruised on NCL a long time ago and had a lot of fun and great time; we expected a similar or better experience this time but was disappointed, as many passengers were, in several areas. The Spirit was ...
