FANTASTIC AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL!!!!! by LadyVet

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Epic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

BEAUTIFUL!! LOVED IT!!! THIS was my first cruise and it was much more than I imagined. One of my friends have cruised several times on NCL so you know she loved it. I LOVE THE IDEA OF STUDIO CABINS.

Nice taste of the Mediterranean by TampaDave

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Epic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

I enjoyed the cruise overall. The ports were mostly amazing. All with something to see. I was surprised that I was able to find deck chairs on the pool deck for a ship of this size, but I never had a problem. Dining at the buffet, finding seating was a challenge. I mostly ate outside and that solved that problem. One thing I wish they would do differently; I bought the soda package. RCL has cups with bar codes on the bottom and you can fill them yourself. I spent a lot of time waiting at bars while bartenders are making mixed drinks just to get a soda. I'd love to see NCL copy RCL in this technology. Also please fix the TV and Phone App "What's going on" which doesn't always reflect the printed schedule and they follow the printed schedule. I went to two events that weren't happening before I figured that out.

Wonderful Western Mediterranean Cruise by crowbait

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Epic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Our first cruise and will retun to Norwegian Cruise Lines. The Epic is a beautiful ship with a well trained staff. We enjoyed every minute!! The shows were excellent. The food was delicious and the service in the restraurants was outstanding. We chose the freestyle dining meal plan and we were very happy. No lines to wait at cafes.

Great trip overall by nbuono

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Epic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

We had a good time. Beatles Show was poor with uninspired musicians. Howling at the Moon, however was fantastic. We enjoyed our excursions but found them to be very expensive.

Mind Blowing New Technology on a Ship by stevieba

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: MSC Meraviglia / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Totally Amazing Cruise Ship. But be prepared there are a lot of people onboard. We paid for the Yacht Club Experience which was all totally fabulous, but the fare is obviously much much higher than normal outside cabins. The ship being fairly new is immaculate. Entertainment is amazing - this is a Party Ship. Just be warned - if you think you are going to find a quiet spot on the deck to rest, it won't happen. It's Party Party Party on this ship and too many people if you want a quiet relaxing cruise. But go for the party - only problem we had, when we arrived home we were exhausted and felt we needed a holiday to get over this amazing cruise. Not the Best Food in the world on cruise ships and our tip is Forget the main buffet, that was the only bad experience, it was like feeding time at the zoo !

Excellant Cruise! by findog

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Jewel of the Seas / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

We enjoyed everything. The room steward was awesome as was our table waiters! second to none! We enjoyed the ports and the surrounding areas. The TV in the room was just ok....channels were the same over and over, also they would lose signal alot! I usually have to use it to sleep so it was quite uncomfortable and boring! Our waiters ( FNU and Dominic ) were AWESOME!!!

Amazing Cruise! by Cruiselori

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Epic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Highly recommend and considering repeating it next year. Missed Palma de Mallorca with itinerary change and was disappointed. Don't believe negativity about the Epic, it's a great ship with a great crew.

Amazing cruise! by cruisinlg

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Epic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

The best vacation of our lives...so much to see in ports we are ready to rebook to see what we didn’t have time for. Would definitely book Epic again...be sure to book specialty dinners early...making changes doesn’t always work out well.

Great B-Day Cruise! by bwhales

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Epic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Worth the time and money to do this one. got to see the wonderful old world of Europe and a very fun cruise. you could sit and relax or do every show and attraction. both options work. food was very good and lines short. I do not think the ship was full ( Mid Oct is great time to travel) so that may have helped? book the shows early if you can. we were able to see most but missed a few since they were booked.

Excellent Cruise by roger1953

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Silhouette / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

A very good cruise with a variety of good ports of call. Pace of a port a day for five straight days detracts from the relaxation aspects of the cruise. Overall quality of the Celebrity experience remains high.

Exceptional! by geoffnele

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Silhouette / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

One of our best 12 cruises. My only slight disappointment was that we only had two formal evenings out of 13. My husband had rented a tuxedo but he need not have bothered. Many guests were in shirt sleeves. Dress code was not really enforced. Most people probably would find this a plus. Now the we know, we won't take formal clothes next time. Other cruise lines were stricter about dress.

Second cruise on the Celebrity Reflection. Just as pleased this time as I was last time. First time in Spain, and really enjoyed the ports of call there. Hope to go back some day.

Okay Experience by CarlusBynum

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Norwegian Epic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

This cruise should be taken for the ports of call. The ship was mediocre at best. It was lacking in onboard entertainment unless you liked playing bingo.

Amazing first Royal Caribbean Cruise by JSAM

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Our cruise was fantastic and we would definitely cruise with R/C again. Probably on a smaller ship next time as although the Independence was great, it did feel over crowded on sea days.
