Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

Food is bad--they are stingy --they cut the lobster in half and serve cocktail shrimp the size of a pea, steak is hard and not edible. The main dining room food is of poor quality. The desert is of very poor quality as well . Stick with Royal or Carnival. This is my first NCL and will be the last.

WOW WOW WOW WOW

Ship is great embarcation great iceshows excellent evening dining a huge disappointmnt after 2 big complaints service becanme acceptable, food quality only accepatable windjammer cafeteria good food and service out of 5 shore ecursions booked 3 were canecelled at just 24 hours notice - stall surly at having to help with rebooking new excursions expect long waits for elevators

While the ship was beautiful, the wait staff seemed a bit disorganized.

The cruise director lacked initiative. Maybe because this is our 10th cruise, and we kept comparing him to other cruise directors. We did not feel "involved." The Mardi Gras parade is over rated. The no smoking policy in Royal Caribbean is ridiculous, and makes the smoking guests feel uncomfortable. The small areas allowed for smoking were overcrowded and lacked enough ashtrays. It is our sincere belief that Royal Caribbean did not explore alternatives for the smokers - probably the person in charge of this policy is a former smoker that wants to impose his/her views and not the customer's.

Disappointed about the ship. I have many criuse experience before but first in this ship. Compare with others this ship was given me a bad impression. 1. roomkeeper dishonest. 2. food not good especially in some restarant. 3. Event & program not attractive in ship 4. theatre dancers too old, too thin and some too fat.Most of them out of sharp. 5. ship theme too old stlye.

Everything was real nice, the only complaints I have is the repetiton of food, very small cabins.

Quality of the cruise was acceptable, but at no point did we say "WOW".

The ship charges extra for many things that are free on US cruise ships. For instance, no free coffee after breakfast, (10 am). The gratuities are automatically charged to your account, even though you may have received poor service. Your only choice is to give extra. This is another way for the cruise line to charge more for the cruise than the stated price.Some staff are ok, particularly the waiter staff in the main restaurants. Not so in the speciality restaurants, which are also expensive. Others are surly, particularly the reception crew, which Americans have to deal with regularly. You won't enjoy that part.The ship itself is very comfortable. Overall a fair cruise, just take along plenty of extra money.

It was overall a nice vacation and because we had a stop every day we didn't miss the lack of activities on board as much as had we had full days at sea. This boat would have been very boring had we not stopped every day. Childrens program was very disappointing especially when you go with 3 children. If we do again will make sure its a much larger ship that offers more entertainment and social activities both for adults and children. Very limited english on board. The excursions where well organized and interesting but can be expensive when including children. The excursions all started very early in the morning when the weather was the worst so that hampered it a bit plus its not very relaxing to have to wake before dawn every day if you want to go ashore.

I didn't care so much for the decor and things looked a little shabby as well.

The evening shows in the big theater were too short and the content tended to be quite repetetive. The main courses at dinners were very ordinary and were not as good as those on cruise ships in the Caribbean.

I write in spanish: Es la segunda vez que tomamos Royal Caribbean y hemos sido encantados por la segunda vez! Sola ombra al viaje es cuando mi mujer a comido un "osso buco" y que a encontrado ,en la salsa, un pequeno hueso y que se a partido una diente.He enviado un email a customer service sin ninguna repuesta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I used to say that of all my cruises, the cruiseline I enjoyed the most was Royal Caribbean. I WILL NOT say that anymore.

If there is one thing I would address with the outlay of the ship, it is that some of the rooms were either below or above venues that served to intertain or activety room. that may it very difficult to enjoy any time in my room, both during the day for relaxasion, or at night. The television channel that was serving as a teaching tool and history lesson for upcomming excursions was unclear and the volume was very low. These are the only two things that I would like to see be rectified. Otherwise, the whole experience was absolutely top rate with a very professional staff, in particular the cruise director. He was simply amazing and had a very engaging personality. Sincerely, Ms. McIntosh

What a wonderful time, great ship! I had expected that the food would be of "banquet quality" given the large number of passengers, but was pleasantly surprised that it was much better. Our waiter Agus made wonderful suggestions.

the only problem was the food, the majority of the staff do not know the ingradient of the food? eg does it has nut, wine meat etc. The excursion staff are not friendly at all with exception of the tall genteman YIN. Otherwise everyjting was perfect

The ship was commissioned in 1999 and has been very well maintained.

Great trip.Food was good and stateroom was nice.The room attendant was excellent.Shows in theatre were excellent.

The Voyager is probably the nicest cruise ship I have been on so far. The staff and crew were outstanding, and the itinery was excellent. This was my sixth cruise, so I have a little experience cruising and this one was the best.
