I am very very disappointed with the cruise to glacier Alaska , I only bought this cruise to see the glacier and we could not see ANYTHING.. All that I see was beautiful mountains that I see constantly because I live in Canada and we are surrounded by it , I was very excited for this cruise only to see the glacier that the pictures when we go to the royal Caribbean’s page to buy it shows .. the ...
Cruise was satisfactory, however the staff was inadequate and inexperienced. We were disappointed that there seemed to be no serious attempt at providing the social experience or entertainment experience that had been advertised and promised. We were continually told that the staff was short due to covid.
We were continually asked by the staff how we wanted something, food or service, then ...
We booked this cruise in March, right after cancelling a European cruise on Osterdam that was to leave June 1st. We were anxious about rising covid numbers and different protocols for the countries on the itinerary, not to mention flying Toronto to Barcelona and spending 2 days there before the cruise plus 2 days in Venice post cruise. There were just too many "what ifs". We had been to Alaska ...
We arrived home from our June 13-20 Cruise to Alaska on NCL Jewel yesterday. It's hot in Texas, so I thought it might cool me off to remember our cruise. Embarkation went pretty smoothly. Our time was 10:30, and after showing our NEG results, we were in line to get checked in. I will say, I did all of the Online Checking, but they did it all over again at check-in. Working harder, not smarter! We ...
We selected this cruise in order to see the Hubbard Glacier and we were not disappointed! Check it was well staffed and the queues were for immigration. We arrived at our alloted time and it was not too long before we were settled into our stateroom with balcony. Our room was clean and Mario kept everything in good order with the minimum of fuss. A nice bottle of wine awaited us and a small ...
We just returned from our 7 day Alaska cruise on board eclipse, and we had an amazing time. Like everyone it’s been 2 years since we cruised and we had almost forgotten just how much we loved cruising on celebrity.
This was our first ‘cold’ cruise but we were exceptionally lucky and the weather was amazing. Yes breezy but Sunny, warm and exceptionally clear.
Celebrity has not lost its edge ...
This cruise was booked in 2019 and cancelled twice due to COVID restrictions with Canadian travel. However the wait was worthwhile as we had an AMAZING experience!
We arrived in Vancouver two days before departure, and princess had vans waiting to take us to the hotel we were staying in before embarkation (The Westin Bayshore, a fantastic hotel!)
Day-of, Princess took our luggage to the ...
We chose to cruise with Princess mostly because of the itinerary. After researching cruising to Alaska, we had heard so many times that Glacier Bay was a must see and it did not disappoint. It was absolutely beautiful and College Fjord was even almost as impressive. We also enjoyed the other ports of Ketchikan, Skagway and Juneau.
The Royal was very nicely decorated, not overly gaudy ...
We chose this cruise based on the land tour option (that option gets 2 stars, as it was a shoddy haphazard attempt to piece together a land tour that fell way short…I will write a separate review… but know this… Princess & Holland America have the land tour down pat!)
Now onto the Millenium review:
The good… food…. Excellent creative meal options..e.g., Poached Lobster Tail in a Champagne ...
1st time on Celebrity and I was impressed with the excellent service, ship cleanliness, and entertainment. Captain Leo was engaged and very visible with the passengers and presented life sayings from his grandfather. Cruise Director David was lively and engaging presenting the right balance for the cruise clientele. Cabin steward (Early) maintained the cabin in spotless condition twice per ...
