Just ok by Patty8

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

We have taken more than 20 cruises. So we can compare with other times. We were disappointed with this one. But we tried to get the best out of it.

Fantastic itinerary and ship! by marwalt7

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

We had a fantastic time on this cruise both because of the itinerary and because of the fabulous crew on the Pacific Princess. The small ship experience was great, easy to get from one place to another and so many wonderful crew members and friendly passengers.

Cruise to the Holy Land by Oregoncruiser

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Jewel of the Seas / Destination: Europe - Mediterranean

I chose this cruise because of the ports visited. Lots of things packed into a few days. The trip was pretty exhausting but we saw a lot in a short time. The ship experience was a disappointment. The drinks are overpriced to encourage purchase of beverage plans. Lots of "nickel and diming" charges on top of cruise cost. Poor communications sometimes with staff unsure about details. Shore excursions and transfers are also over priced based on tours I was able to book on my own.

Cruise to interesting places. by ernimart

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

Main purpose for us was to visit the Holy Land, which we did. But this time of the year was not convenient for this. Ship is good and clean, staff very nice but food and entertainment are lacking.

We have rated the norwegian getaway as our best cruising experience and the epic was the worst of our 9 cruises by lhblong

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

We really feel like we were shammed by Norwegian, As seniors we paid a lot of money for the haven with the expectations of having the wonderful experience we enjoyed on the getaway. We got no embarkation or disembarkation benefits at all, instead of being escorted to our busses we were turned loose in the epic theater to stand in extremely long to get off and getting back on was a joke. Then to have to pay a taxi after having paid for transfers to airport was the final humiliation. Norwegian just lost once a year travelers

Ruined our 45th Anniversary dream trip by 45thanniversary

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

The cruise was bad enough but our treatment at the end of the cruise and after when we try to seek some compensation from Norwegian was terrible. We were never served our 45th anniversary dinner in the main dining room we received our appetizer and then nothing for an hour when we saw some remedy from the restaurant manager .... nothing. we then went to the buffet only to find it was closed before 10 PM when it should have been open. Worse yet when we complained again we were given a number to call after the cruise which we later found out to be just a recording where you could not even leave a message. Because of the ships mechanical difficulties we missed almost half of the ports that we took this cruise to see. Norwegians reimbursement was $100 non-refundable onboard credit for missing almost half the cruise ports.

Relaxed by extremo1

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: MSC Divina / Destination: Europe

Relaxed. Many activities to participate on sailing days. Because it was a Transatlantic cruise, there was no TV or Internet. I did not care for the Internet, nice to be disconnected. As for the Caribbean next time shall explore on my own. Azores is worth a second visit.

Nautica. 10 Night Italian Spotlight. We enjoyed the cruise by joannemodafferi

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Nautica / Destination: Europe - Mediterranean

It was a good cruise, weather played a role in what we did and where we went, but did not put a damper on our spirits. Fellow passengers we met were nice, friendly and fun. I give thanks and praise to our Captain and his staff for a safe journey.

NCL has taken cruising to a new level; unfortunately that level is the basement by WizardPDX

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

This was our 2nd and will be our last cruise with NCL. We did not enjoy our Alaska Cruise with them but thought we should give them another shot; that was a mistake. NCL has managed to take the joy out of cruising and make it entirely about squeezing every penny from its customers while spending the bare minimum on food and entertainment.
