Transatlantic Luxury Cruises Reviews

This cruise was a bucket list for my DH, as I prefer ports and warmer weather. He had hopes of all things British and the ship did not disappoint. He enjoyed high tea and great conversations with our fellow passengers, many who were from the UK. I enjoyed it as well, especially the Cunard Insight's talks. One speaker was a Forensic Medical Examiner and he was fantastic! Every day, there was a ...

It was a gift. Every aspect of the cruise was fantastic. The officers were friendly, professional, competent and committed to passenger needs, comfort, & safety, Crew were unfailingly polite, friendly, anf responsive to passenger requests. The ship is fantastic, with more than ample public spaces. Impeccably decorated and at the same time functional. Meals were first rate - in fact, ...

We had previously sailed on 3 Viking river cruises. Our next-door neighbor told us that Viking ocean cruises were the tops in luxury, so we thought we'd take make our first ocean cruise a big one. Thank goodness we purchased the Viking Air as a hurricane was hitting Florida on the day we were supposed to fly out with a connecting flight in Miami. Viking took the initiative and rerouted us ...

We chose this cruise because we wanted a transatlantic crossing on a luxury liner to enjoy sea days and world class ports. The cruise exceeded all of our expectations. We were in a Penthouse Veranda and had ample space to relax, and even to invite new friends over for a cocktail. The beds were comfortable and the room and bathroom were immaculate. We loved the large bathroom, with heated floor, ...

Reports of QM2’s demise are very premature. It’s not tatty, it’s not falling apart. An odd bit of rust, but the interior looks stunning and in good nick. Sailed Queens Grill so comments may not apply to other cabins. Cabin was lovely. I think PG cabin would be fine next time. The butler and his assistant were fantastic, as was the standard of service everywhere (May be a touch slow in the ...

People complaining about QM2 must be looking for problems. Loved everything about our trip, food was great, service was 1st class. Mostly ate in Britannia Club but did also use Golden Lion and Kings buffet sometimes. Good choice of food for for every meal, food was very good and staff very attentive. Bar staff very good in every bar we had been in from Commodore to G32. Good choice of ...

QM 2 is a wonderful ship. It is very nautical and has a large number of venues in which to eat, dance, drink or listen to music. The activities on this crossing which focused on art and design were very good. The entertainment in the main showroom was fair. The food is commparable to most mid to upper tier ships which is good but not great. The pub had good food and an excellent irish duo ...

Interested in the destinations and historical background of the region. The ports were interesting, and the guides were knowledgeable and fun. Our guides in the Shetland Islands and Quebec City were outstanding. Wished we could have spent some more time in Iceland, as a one-day stay was less than optimal. Because of weather (Farrow Islands) and a problem with distilling fresh water due to low ...

Why so many complaints? If you don’t want to see any signs of rust and wear, go on a brand new cruise ship! This ship is 18 years old and they were constantly painting and repairing everywhere during our cruise. Many of the areas have new carpet, new furniture and the ship was spotless in all the bathrooms, common areas and restaurants. I think some cruisers got a little spoiled pre-pandemic ...

We chose this cruise because it is different than any other cruise, it is a crossing on an ocean liner. My daughter and I loved going to tea in the afternoon, sitting out by the pool at the back of the ship, and all the historic photos on board. Having a planetarium is a unique feature for a cruise ship and we attended several times. The late night "snack" is fabulous and is really another ...
