Marella Family Cruises Reviews

We have never cruised before, so was not sure we would enjoy the experience, how wrong we were. The ship, Marella discovery, was very modern, well equipped, and professionally staffed, we were wined and dined, entertained, and felt pampered from arrival to departure, nothing was too much for them. we traveled to multiple ports around the fjords and the scenery was a delight to the eyes, we enjoyed ...

I thought you may like some feedback on our recent cruise in June 2018 to the Midnight Sun on TUI new ship Marella Discovery. We have been cruising with Thompson’s (TUI) since 2004 and have booked in excess of ten cruise trips with TUI. This is our second cruise with TUI in 2018. The ship is beautiful, with excellent recreation facilities, entertainment and lounge and bar service. In ...

Just arrived back from Midnight Sun Cruise with Discovery. This was the worst cruise we have ever been on and I have been on many all over the world. Hurricane Hectar changed our plans and we headed for a safe port. I totally understand this. What I don't understand that when the hurricane passed, we headed south instead of north. I was not alone in thinking this. Many people I spoke to would have ...

Major problem on this cruise. Hot water pipes in my cabin ceiling broke and doused my whole cabin in scalding water. It destroyed all the furniture and all my possessions. The water escapes into the corridor entering other cabins and wetting the floors. Everyone was moved to new cabins. Wonderful. Then everyone compensated with £300. Wonderful. Unfortunately everything we had on the cruise was ...

We (my wife and I) only booked this cruise as I have wanted to visit Nordkapp for a number of years. The dates fitted with our diaries so opted not to go on a European road trip as the opportunity had arisen. The tour was called Norway's Midnight Sun and included a run up the coast of Norway to Honningsvag (for North Cape) then a run back down and call in at a fjord and a couple of other places. ...

We chose this cruise as we had cruised with Thomson about 40 or so times from many different ports and liked Norway. Also not needing to fly was an added advantage. I normally don't post cruise reviews however TUI has failed to send us a review survey for the last few years for both land based holidays and criuses. So my only way of providing feedback is via public forums. The embarkation at ...

First time cruisers and TUI did not disappoint. From embarking at North Shields it was a total pleasure. The ship is still in canny nick and the staff were brilliant. Food was of a high standard in all waited restaurants and buffet did was it said on the tin. Only booked 1 trip with TUI which was very good, the ship dropped us off and made its way to another port while we were taken by bus ...

We're just back from Wonders of the Fjords on Discovery 1 today and thought i'd review what I thought. We were first time cruisers travelling with a 7 year old so are able to view from all angles. Cabin: We booked an inside cabin on decks 2/3 and were allocated 2091 towards the rear of the ship. We're not ones for lounging around during the day and tend to use these places as a base or as some ...

We chose Marella for the itinerary and we live 2 hours from Newcastle.We had great memory of Thomson Dream in the Caribbean. We chose Inter-cruise bus to get us to Newcastle.The sight at our arrival was like refugees with suitcases trying to escape.After 15 mins we were sent to a car park.Given our envelope with tags and cards.In the hall we were given a number.As we booked a suite we were ...

Seen an all inclusive cruise in TUI in Aberdeen and as we enjoyed the previous cruise with Barr head travel we thought we would enjoy this one been all inclusive we surmised we were getting a good deal. NOT. First we were given an inside cabin but paid for an outside had to move the next morning. The Food was cold all the time we were on the ship. The ship was delayed going into 3 ports so we had ...
