Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

I found it very disappointing to enjoy this cruise experience from ones I took on NCL in the past. Overall Pricing, Food, Room and ship design were a huge problem for us. Specialty Dining restaurants food pricing was super high, wine drinks at $18-24 for a single glass was a rip off. Balcony cabin was smaller than a shoe box. Deck furniture was trash. The ship needs a complete do over. Location of elevators were another inconvenience. It appears the cruise ship was only designed to increase their profits and not for the comfort of its passengers.

This was our first cruise and we had a great experience! Would definitely use Norwegian again. We were very impressed with how clean everything was and loved getting to know the staff members from many different countries! Be prepared to spend $75-$400 per person per day on excursions, even those you book yourself.

Excellent Butler Akash! Had an enjoyable cruise.

This is one of the nicest ships afloat today. It is laid out like many of the other RCL super ships but it is newer and has a more "modern" look. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. We've sailed "higher end" cruise lines and while those offer some amenities not found on this ship, I didn't find anything really missing here. Even though it is a big ship, it doesn't feel crowded. There are always places to go to get some peace and quiet if you want it. All in all, great cruise. Would highly recommend.

The cruise was overall a good experience; however, it's 100% not enough time to visit each city. I'm sure there's another cruise that has a couple days at each port and that would have been preferred. The restaurants were pretty good overall, with the exception of the pool deck buffet. That food was not great and really little healthy options. The staff is very nice and helpful. My largest complaint is the on-board doctor. I hurt myself during an excursion and needed medical attention. The doctor had HORRIBLE bedside manner, they did not accept my insurance and they billed me almost $400 for cleaning my wound with iodine and putting a bandage on it. Totally ridiculous, so I did not return for the dressing change.

This was a bog standard Seabourn cruise, some of the luxury pre-pandemic are gone. Service in the grand saloon is now non existent.

Nicest cruise we have ever taken! We have booked another, and plan to do another in 2024. We don't need to try other cruise lines, Seabourn is perfect for us.

The crew definitely made this cruise unforgettable with all the attention to detail. I will continue to travel on Royal Caribbean.

I really enjoyed the staff (with a few exceptions) and was grateful for the experience! We laughed and relaxed and got to see some beautiful places. It was not the best food and there were a lot of unexpected charges, but I'm grateful I did it.

I was able to relaxed as a professional staff pampered me kindly and without fuss. They just wanted me to enjoy myself!

The cold food at the early dining, the constant payments for shuttle buses and terrible tender experience made it a below par trip. The Sardegna stop was a reason we liked the itenirary but that was cancelled. I have traveled with Royal before and that trip was a great experience.

This was the best vacation of our lives! We will be back!

Excellent service, amazing ship. The ports were great, except the distance to Florence. I would recommend this cruise.

Great places to visit. Very comfortable , clean, all included good deal.

The cruise was fine and a great time to share with our family. However, did not include the drinks package as requested (phone call proved it was requested, thank goodness for taped calls). Had to pay for each drink and be asked EACH TIME if we were aware we did not have the drinks package. After seven days this got old. Some people actually asked if we could afford to pay for the drinks. After nearly two hours on the phone with , this is during the cruise while my family was trying to get ready for dinner, I was told that the matter would be investigated. Two days later, did the right thing and acknowledged their mistakes, but I needed to send in the drinks bill and wait (and hope) for reimbursement. Very very annoying.

Wonderful cruise with incredible crew and services. Captain was great and informative about all the parts of his ship.

Excellent first European visit on an intimate smaller not overwhelming ship, visiting Spain, France, and Italy! Highly recommend!

Great Cruise… Amazing time with family, sad there were no Broadway shows as in the past!

I would suggest if you are looking to continue looking at the wonderful locations outside of Rome this was basically a continuation of it. Would do it again without hesitation

Enjoyed the cruise very much. The port were perfect. The shop does need some updates. The Staterooms are a little tired. If you have 4 ppl you must get the Family size balcony. The regular balcony is too small. The staff owns the food where great. The only problem for us was it was a group of 12 and we had a hard time getting in the dining rooms because with Freestyle dining you can’t make reservations. Overall I would recommend this cruise. I never cruised with NCL and don’t think I would again because of the freestyle dining.
