Good Trip but don't plan on using the internet too much by marianne573

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

The stops were great and so much to take in and see. Boat was okay but we were disappointed in the food and dining for 75% of the time. Didn't have time to use spa but it looked nice. Internet was a big issue or lack thereof.

Terrific Mediterranian Cruise by snoangl123

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

My husband and I cruise at least once a year. Our favorite line is NCL. We really enjoy the freestyle dining as well as NCL's entertainment. I do like some of their other ships more than the Epic but we thoroughly enjoyed this cruise.

ALERT! by b3nchua

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

I would cruise with MSC again, I hope MSC will try to improve the communication and make personnel much happier place for them. I love the guests on the ship and I miss them already. I am hoping they should get better entertainment shows, overall the PAZ is very good, not able to see the WAY.

Poor AA Customer Service by eenh

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

Booked cruise through American Airlines, only received one email communication about initial booking, no other communication, reminders for payment, reminders to go to cruise site from AA. When I talked to Royal Caribbean, since AA was considered the "travel agent" they cannot communicate with us directly, all communication about the cruise is supposed to come from American - None came. Very poor service by booking through America.

Great intro to Europe! by corywong7

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

We really enjoyed this cruise and thought it was a great way to get a taste of a lot of places. It was definitely a "go go go" kind of cruise as there was only one day at sea and we wanted to get off at every port.

Amazing Tuscany Cruise by pws9630

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Seven Seas Voyager / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

My wife and I were on our honeymoon. Perfect cruise for relaxation. We really enjoyed ourselves. My wife kept saying over and over again, on how amazing the cruise was and how spoiled she felt on it.

Sea of people! Great itinerary, but way too crowded. by easteps

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

We loved the itinerary, and the cruise offered us a great opportunity to visit these ports. However, this cruise ship was too crowded, and the cruise line did not seem particularly adept at managing crowds. For example, when people were wandering around with food looking for a place to sit (buffets), a staff member should help direct guests to available seating. Also, the lines during crowded times should be managed in such a manner as to promote efficiency and discourage arguments between guests.

It was wonderful! We could not have asked for a more memorable 50th anniversary trip! We did not have one negative experience! Kevin Davis at did a fantastic job of recommending rooms, services and tours based on our likes and anniversary trip! Well done!

pleasant trip by llkone

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

Being a proponent of less populated cruises, I was pleasantly surprised. The only negative, while it really didn't impact us, was the limited number of deck chairs around the pool and the lack of umbrellas for shade. We found deck chairs removed from the pool area, up against a wall of the ship in the blazing sun. We lasted about 45 minutes and returned to our own balcony.

Excellent! by BethanneN

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Freedom of the Seas / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

One of the best vacations we have been on. The ports are intersting and offered many beautiful choices. It is hard to just pick one thing to do, knowing you will miss other things. there are far more excursions available ship board than the ones offered on line. I recommend grabbing a few before you go and booking the rest as soon as you get on board Sunday.

good until the end by cookiedou68

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

The food and entertainment were great as well as the service we received from our room steward and the servers in the restaurant. however the service we received from the guest service desk left us embarrassed and angry for even asking for help.

A nice trip with a bad ending by annieeedou

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

It is generally a nice trip while my wallet was stolen the day before. Unknown in board or outside of ship since I was just left ship and be ready to get into the bus while I had found it was gone. Staff in ship think it was not happened inside, so, they believe it is normal. Anyway, they were not helpful and had never understand the issue. I believe they will understand it better if they were also stolen. Learning from expertise !!!

great sights to visit by lidanersesian

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

The amenities and ship were top notch. Food quality and variety needs improvements. should have a system that passengers can communicate with each other with telephone. When we didn't havce cell service,m it was difficult to find each other. a lot of time was spent walking around, looking for one another. The automated screens and tv system for reservations and booking was not too user friendly, glitchy ( would get stuck, not responsive) I wasn't able to check if all people in my party were included in reservations and none of the employees had access to help me. Spent too much of my leisure time on that.

Awesome Mediterranean Cruise by gbenjamin2012

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Royal Princess / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Love cruising on Princess - This cruise is a must do for anyone that loves cruising. Typically we prefer cruises with more sea days however this allowed us to see much of the Med countries to get a flavor for what we would like to come back and see in more detail.

Regent Cruises are always great by wasoble

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Seven Seas Voyager / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

Regent is a great line and the Voyager is a great ship. Worth the money! This itinerary was a bit ambitious with no days at sea. I guess we didn't have to visit every port...; but we wanted to.

Ship: Disney Magic / Destination: Europe - Western Mediterranean

A wonderful way to experience ports we had never been to before. This being our second Disney cruise, we knew to expect great service, top of the line entertainment, and lots of fun activities on board. Very happy with our overall experience.

Awesome Mediterranean Cruise-Loved every port by sarhodes

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

I was plesantly pleased overall with this Cruise. Loved all the ports and beautiful mediterranean views. I was worried about the large amount of guests but it didn't seem as bad as ecpected. And tbe ship was extremely stable you could hardly feel it moving! This was a plus for me because I get sea sick in rough seas.
