Europe Cruise Reviews

Great cruise and Itinerary. All the ports were very enjoyable and fun.

Everything about the cruise was amazing except the unexpected cancellation of Corfu and the lack of communication regarding the cancellation. It will definitely make me think twice about booking with Norwegian again because we booked this trip based on 4 stops in Greece and we only got 3 stops. So disappointing since everything else was so great.

Overall, the Escape is a great ship and the staff is amazing. I couldn't speak highly enough of the staff or how well they are organized. They made the difference with my cruise. I hope they are well paid and not receiving good pay just because the gratuity charges make up their wages. They deserve every dime. On the other hand, June was exceptionally hot, I noticed that some of the cruise participants were not prepared for just how hot it was nor the physicality several of these ports required, such as Santorini. In one instance, in Pisa, there was a 15 minute walk from where the bus parked and to the sights of interest such at the Leaning Tower. Two of the tour participants cut their time short and took a taxi back to the ship. Certainly, this is no fault of the Cruise Line nor the Tour operator, I only mention it so that whomever is planning their trip to be mindful of the time of the year and your personal physical capabilities.

Overall-- there are Hop on/off busses in most of the larger ports. They give great tour info and allow you to choose where you want to go.. We could have taken more of them rather than some of the excursions- but since this was port intensive we wanted to make sure we were in a professional tour group so not to miss anything. I only suggest another sea day to break up the heavy touring- I can't imagine how pooped we'd be if we had done St Petersburg too ! Overall just a fabulous cruise - even tho it was over summer solstice time and some shops etc were closed. More time for shop for goods would have been nice on each tour. We'd do this again.

In spite of a rough start, we enjoyed the trip. Would recommend this ship and itinerary.

Overall enjoyed the cruise but struggles with lost luggage crowded much of our time. Guest services did everything within their power to help locate it, but as of this date it is still missing.

Seabourn should focus on providing the service level and type of "special" touches they included 6 years ago. Staff greeting you by name, afternoon tea and snacks, better food selections and quality. All the details that once made Seabourn a standout, are the reason Seabourn is now one of several "average" small ship cruise lines.

Basically loved almost every minute and am sad I’m home. Can’t wait for next trip!

The Norwegian GEM was a great ship and the staff were amazing!!! We got to know various members of the staff from bartenders, to wait staff, to the steward and cruise director assistant. Even got to talk to the Captain during a session which was very entertaining.

Onward isnt 100% ready yet, with doors falling of furniture, and a bit dirty and rusty. We had expected to book our next cruise while on board, but decided it best to pick another cruise line next time.

I felt that with covid and the precautions taken by the cruise line, that the cruise was very well done. The weather was great and the service and food were top rate.

Would definitely consider another cruise using Royal Caribbean.

We have cruised with rccl a few times. Next one will be with another cruise line.

This was a magnificent tour! The attention to detail with Viking is what always makes it the BEST. This was not our first..and nor will it be our last..already trying to decide where next?!!

Ship personnel very friendly. One incident experienced groping of my wife by security personnel while boarding the ship after an excursion. It was not resolved to our satisfaction.

The cruise was phenomenal, from the staff and the food, to the ports and activities. Would highly recommend.

Lovely ship and staff. Would recommend to anyone looking for a smaller sized ship with excellent food and excursions offered.

It was a blast! Go if you get the chance. Best cruise ever I think!

Everything was great with the cruise, but didn’t help me at all. I would have liked to know about the specific ports in the itinerary, but I usually couldn’t get answers to even simple questions from . I dealt directly with Norwegian. The airport to ship transportation never showed up, I placed a complaint with Norwegian.

-I called from the cabin multiple times to the Guests Relations Desk to ask information but nobody pics the phone, very frustrating. -The first day I requested an upgrade and the Guest Relations agent told me someone would contact me regarding this matter however, nobody cared to call me ever. -When dinning at a different time than the one scheduled was very difficult and painful, the agents in some cases were kind of rude. -It would have been nice to see a show related to the local culture from any of the countries we were visiting, like when we took the Baltic sea cruise, in Saint Petersburg we saw a Russian wonderful music and dance show.
