Europe Cruise Reviews

Great excursions, great staff, lousy ship design and features.

The ship was very nice with great food, staff, environment and entertainment. Ports were great, but unfortunately we spent too much time and money on the ship's excursions. We should have focused more on the towns close by.

Disembarkation was terrible. NCL staff said they hadn't docked at that terminal before. We were in lines with only one elevator. Ship was nice & clean and staff were great.

Cruise ship and service was great. The other passengers made this vacation awful for my family and myself. They were very very rude and unwelcoming. This is the first time in my life I felt really uncomfortable and welcomed by so many people, and was trapped on a ship with this fee8for 7 days........

This was a very enjoyable cruise. It would have been nice to spend more time in Valencia.

It was a very hot week but in spite of it we had a fabulous time. The cabin for 3 was spacious with lots of closet & drawer space, & no bunk beds. The food was extraordinary with lots of options. We were given the tour of the executive kitchen on one of the 3 kitchen floors which was very interesting to see the inner workings of such a massive ship. The bartenders mixed some great drinks which were priced higher than on our previous cruise on the Serenade of the Seas. Entertainment & land excursions were well organized for so many people. We highly recommend Royal Caribbean & have booked our next adventure above the Arctic Circle!

Wouldn’t want to do another cruise on HollandAmericaLine ship unless it was the only one going to where i wanted to go

Being able to visit three countries and 6 different places in the Adriatic Sea for 8 days was a wonderful experience

This was our first family cruise and whe are now already discussing next cruise.

Ship has been update nicely. Very clean and modern. Open pool area nice for sunning! We found this to be on par with Holland and Princess, all having there small differences, but would do NCL and the spirit again.!

We had a great time on this cruise as we always do on Royal Caribbean. They provide excellent accommodations and service.

When my wife and I first talked about going on vacation we wanted to go to Europe, so we started looking for which country to go too. We were stuck on Spain and Italy, then we ran across the western Mediterranean cruise which covered both countries. We couldn't have picked a better Cruise line to accommodate what we were looking for. I was blown away at how clean the ship was and the excellent service from the beginning to the end.

Good food. Needs a better pool side and a pool where adults can relax without worrying about drowning. Adult pool was too small and too deep.

This cruise is geared towards an Older clientele. Which is not to say that someone in their 20s and 30s couldn't find it entertaining, just that it is a more relaxing and quiet type of cruise. More moderate energy levels. The bands and DJ's kept to a more moderate and older theme. Even the Nightclub never made it out of the 70s and 80s as a general rule and had a croud only 2 nights of the 14.

Great trip, staff on ship were super friendly and provided excellent service. Make sure you see all ports, cofu is thought given time limitations just make sure you have a plan before disembarking and a drink package is key.

I believe that by taking away the opportunity for the crew to gain tips for giving quick, efficient service with a smile (none of the staff smiled at passengers except for the wait staff in the My Choice Dinning room) may be one of the reasons most of the staff seemed to hate their jobs. This new policy regarding tips is the only thing I can think of that may have caused such a different experience with the staff on board this ship as compared to my experience 3-4 years ago on an MSC cruise out of Rome where the entire staff was always friendly and helpful.

Viking Sky is a really special ship, and this was the best cruise I've ever taken. The staff and crew are wonderful and want you to have the best vacation possible, the ship has a lot of space for everyone and is very relaxing and beautiful, and the food is really good. Also, drinks are very reasonably priced! It was only about $7.50 for most cocktails, and gratuity is included in that price.

Great cruise, with few disappointments. Room and Dining service was an outstanding experience. Some other services not. Internet must improve.

I loves every minute that we were there and was very sad to leave!

In general the cruise itself was great. Customer service for sit-down dinner is lacking. My waiter was terrible. In addition, upon arriving on the ship we were ambushed with staff selling us drink tickets, excursions. I think staff needs to relax, we will be on the ship for days and can figure out what drinks and excursions we want to go on as the days go by. I didn't like being ambushed as soon as I got on the ship- It distracts from the overall experience. The cabins are gorgeous and clean and the excursion experiences were great.
