Great trip with interesting ports by mssandrakonrad

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Celebrity Constellation / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

For me perfect size ship. Few lines. Dining options and service so much better than NCL’s Epic last year.

Saw many sites that we have only read and heard about. by Green5

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Seven Seas Navigator / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

Started with a great flight on Emirates airline. Great Business class seats. Best I have experienced. Spend two days touring Dubai and Abi Dubai. Board the Regency Navigator ship and started our cruise. We had some armed guards on board as we passes Somalia and entered the Red Sea. Took a two tours at Lexor. One was the temples at Karnac. The include a tour of the valley of Kings. Got to enter King Tutus tomb. The sea days were needed to recharge my batteries. Very tired with long bus trips over to Lexor. Israel sites were very crowded. Not much organization at the sites. Push your way through. Crete was okay. Been there before, so say the main site before. Could not get into Sorento as the sea was to choppy to load the tenders. Dock at Naples instead, so we just took a walking tour. Ended in Rome. Spent 5 days there enjoying the sites and food.

Great experience by Seetheworld25

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Celebrity Millennium / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

It was a very educational experience for my children and a bucket list for my husband and me. Enjoyed all of it but wished I did a tour in Seoul Korea. Intrigued with China and most especially Loved Japan.

Great experience by gastineau1

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Celebrity Millennium / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

It was a very educational experience for my children and a bucket list for my husband and me. Enjoyed all of it but was a little bored (for lack of better phrasing) with South Korea. Intrigued with China and most especially Loved Japan.

Cabin attendants were good. General service lacks by CaTT25

Ship: MSC Splendida / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

MSC Splendida severely disappointed me. The Ports of call were fantastic but the cruise ship itself was terrible.

Interesting cruise in Southeast Asia by zipcat

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Voyager of the Seas / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

We have been on 5 RC cruises and we love to see new places. We had looked forward to the Southeast Asia cruise for quite some time. The stateroom and attendant were excellent. The ports of call were very interesting. The ship itself was clean and in good shape, and we did enjoy the ice show even with the extremely poor seats. However, the overall dining experience was the worst I have experienced as a cruiser. That includes being pressured to purchase a dining package nearly every time were were in the Windjammer or the main dining room.

After 16 cruises this ship is about the worst. A night it is a ghost ship. Never again on Holland American. by maltzinsur

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Westerdam / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

The ship is really not impressive in any way. A ports were mostly high rise buildings. If you take a tour you can can see a little of the country side. A few of the trips were worth the money, others a total waste. If you truly want to see these countries do not attempt to do it on a cruise ship. Please note that the cruise line gives this rating an overall 2.4 out of 3. It is not that high in reality.

Celebrity's friendliest ship - from the Captain on down. Newly refurbished ship was contemporary and stylish - we liked the improved functionality within the cabin. The itinerary wa well thought out. Note: prepare for long trips from ports to cities. by JJandEB

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Millennium / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

Except for getting to and from there (flying) one of our best ever.

Amazing Itinerary - Must Do by Ambiinthe6

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: MSC Lirica / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

I enjoyed the Itinerary but the activities and the food on the cruise was lacking. I also get the feeling their employees are not happy. Most were not friendly. And they kept promoting their senior staff when it's the servers and cleaners who do all the hard work.

Fabulous South East Asia Cruise. by raysha46

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Millennium / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

I was apprehensive of so many sea days, however; after the long tour days, which were hot and humid, I was quite appreciative of those days. Well balanced between tour and sea days. Lot's to keep one's interest on the ship.

Awesome trip to Australia and Indonesia by edbaronne

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Jewel / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

Fun trip and happy we did the itinerary. Would stay away from the premium internet as it’s an unneeded expense from my stand point.

FANTASTIC by willowgrove2336

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Queen Mary 2 / Destination: Asia & Indian Ocean

We were married on board the ship by the Captain, Christopher Wells on Valentine's Day. All I can say is from the time we boarded until we disembarked we were treated like royalty. The staff went beyond what we expected and the captain made us and our daughter feel so special. He even allowed us to have some of our wedding photos taken on the bridge. Best cruise ever and hope to sail with her again.

Good overall experience to visit some Asian cities in HK, Vietnam,Bangkok, Singapore by hoffdave

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Silver Shadow / Destination: Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East)

Good experience, mostly positive experiences from the onboard ship activities, service and condition to ports visited. All the ports had numerous, duplicative "hawker markets" which got old real fast as about all were just selling same junk.
