Europe Cruise Reviews

Great service. Beautiful places. Lot of fun. We had a wonderful experience.

It was very well done, great ship, excellent personnel, very smooth sailing. Loved my cabin, and especially the balcony. Great shore excursions and excellent food. Getting 5 at sea and the ability to prepay meant that I left the ship with a bill of $6.36. Made me feel I was at an all-inclusive. No surprises. Other than the rug I was forced to buy I was able to keep within my budget for shopping and was so encouraged that I participated in the cruise next program. I was very impressed with the clientele loyalty. I have been on several different ships but never heard the brand loyalty that I heard until this cruise.

Overall enjoyed the cruise, would definitely do some things different if I ever went back.

The cruise company was disorganized as a whole. We booked excursions separately from the ship as they were much cheaper and as a result the crew didn’t know where to send us and give us bad information. The passport pick up was a total disaster. Poor planning and organizing skills.

This was our first experience with MSC and it was so positive, that we will definately consider for our future travels soon. Quite a value. Only other suggestion would make is to provide local maps of areas

We are hooked, and planning our next Seabourn adventure.

DON'T DO IT! This ship charges for EVERYTHING! Your beverage that is included? Water! They even tack on a "Hotel service fee" of almost $200 at the end of the cruise! Very minimal food is included.. and while you are eating dinner, they try to sell you the next nights "Special dinner!" Only $35 per person, per dinner! We will not be cruising Costa again! DON'T DO IT!

Stay Away, this company has a lot to catch up with its peers. No customer service, poor organization and communication. Visa process for some ports was a complete nightmare. Just go with the other guys.

Not a very good experience, The cuisine, the ports cancellation, the ports disembarcation, the charged amenities, the poor shows, make this cruise very unpleasent

Delightful experience, delivered more than expected in terms of staff, food, excursion choices & entertainment. Character of guests was interesting, fun & engaging. Will definately consider WindStar first for future cruises.

Weather impacted departure from port day one but time was made up. Missed 2 ports due to high seas but a substitute (Brugges) was added. Overall impressed by the quick response of the entertainment team and crew. Excellent experience!

In short, this was the perfect cruise. Everything from the flight to Rome to the flight home to NYC and during the 14 days on the Princess Island went as planned and exceeded our expectations.

The destinations made the cruise. The ship was dated. The cabin was very dated. The food in all of the "sit down" restaurants was poor. Nothing (food-wise) was exceptional and the meat dishes were terrible. I paid for the 3 meals in specialty restaurants - the food was no better there. The food in the buffet met expectations and was better. The ship started in Haifa and a good percentage of the cruisers were Israeli. A good percentage of them were rude and annoying to be around. US and Western European potential passengers should be aware of this prior to booking any cruise out of Haifa. The crew on the ship was very, very good.

High-end all-inclusive boutique cruise experience.

Overall and excellent cruise...and...the ship only had about 250-260 passengers out of a full 600+, so it was almost like a private yacht....

awesome itinerary, ship was just placed back in service, the crew were trying and doing their best.

We really loved the cruise, and will probably be spoiled forever as this is our first real cruise and I can't see things being better! . The food and service was absolutely outstanding. The only negative was the wifi was not good at all. Even in port which I would think could be switched over to cellular versus satellite connection. We worked with them about it and it did not get better. This may be the way all cruise lines are but we thought it would be better and we cannot fully unplug so that part was disappointing. We definitely would go with Seabourn again.

Most definetly a cruise to remember for a lifetime

Never again. We are avid cruisers and have tried Royal now 3 times... This will be our last. First night I was served something I was allergic to, which caused a throat reaction and not being able to breathe correctly. Through a comedy of errors and poor service - I missed the first four days of the cruise due to sheer stupidity. The medical team gave me DayQuil... To which the first ingredient I am ALLERGIC. Main dining room staff apologized but blamed the kitchen. Medical team could not tell me anything and would not listen to what I needed (having had this allergy my whole life). I was offered a "future cruise credit valued for one day" and had to ask for my gratuities to be withheld as we did not dine in the dining room again due to service. Buffet was average. Rooms were outdated but we expected that. Ship was dirty and poorly kept up.

Beautiful and clean ship. Best value and best food. Ports of call are good. Need deodorant for cabins , need more interesting activities for active adults
