good but can be improved by eliang90568450

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Azamara Journey

Given the cost it is not a recommended cruise. The only thing commendable is the tender service (very efficient), restaurant staff service, and the choice of ports. Everything else is either mediocre or unacceptable.

Cruise Disappointment by LPH

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Voyager of the Seas

Had the cruise followed the original scheduling, I would have rated this cruise excellent. Last minute changes after you have my money is disappointing. Staff and service same across the Royal ships. Internet sucks.

This was such a a wonderful experience. With a large family we decided to book a suite. Very comfortable, friendly staff. Istanbul and Kusadasi were the highlights of the trip!

Greek and Turkish Gem by devo315

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Vista

We had a grand time. The only downside was the unseasonable heat which was beyond control. Best ships crew I've ever experienced.

Fabulous! by barrybavister

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Azamara Journey

We thoroughly enjoyed our Azamara ‘Journey’ and would do it again, on a different route, just for a change. Highly recommended for the ship, amenities, food and drinks, staff, and ports of call.

Ok...if you're European by Ustraveller

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: MSC Sinfonia

They need to give better instructions. We didn't know where to go to get off the ship for ports. I had to keep going to reception to ask questions. We probably missed out on a lot of stuff because we never knew. But good thing I got 40 papers about the jewelry sales. I won't do another MSC cruise.

Great itinerary, Not a great cruise experience by lwortzman

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Oosterdam

I wanted and expected to love it but the ship was just so dated. Then to have the experiences with the Caneletto and Guest Services made it unpleasant. I pre-booked several other cruises because HAL has great itineraries, but I plan on canceling them at this time.

NCL Viva Cruise by vandanana

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Viva

Overall the cruise was good but there were some misses by NCL on organization and planning of tender ports and the excursion companies. Not too impressed by them and not sure if I would do another cruise like this one.

Amazing experience for our family! by mtbersell

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Oosterdam

While I have been on many cruises in my youth, this was the first time for my husband and adult children. They were apprehensive if they would enjoy it, worrying that it would be cheesy or cheap, but everyone loved the experience. The food and hospitality were top notch. We loved the unique port options as well. A great experience we hope to do again!

Nice cruise on a somewhat tired ship by scottnmibrown

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Viking Star

An itinerary just going to Montenegro, Croatia, and Slovenia maybe along with Bari or one of the other Eastern Italian cities would be preferable. Maybe a day in Venice, but I know that is not really feasible

Excellent Stops. Excellent Service. by dave4227186

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Celebrity Infinity

The main description claimed Egypt and Israel as stops. This is an error. We knew the correct stops when we booked. There is no doubt we have come to love Celebrity with having cruised with them 20 times. The food is usually very very good. The staff predict your needs. The staterooms are always clean and tidy. Infinity is a lovely ship. We like her more than her newer sister, Summit.

Alternate was Okay by Lvinn

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Infinity

Our cruise with Celebrity was as good as one could hope for in the off season. Even though the war that developed between Israel and the West Bank meant completely changing the itinerary, Celebrity managed to pull off a great trip. We would have preferred to have an extra day in Ephesus and skip Cyprus, but that was only apparent in hind sight. We would still like to visit Rhodes and the ports on the original Israel and Egypt itinerary.
