Other (Asia/Africa/Middle East) Cruise Reviews

Fantastic Trip, exploring the east coast of Asia, would Iove to do it again

The bridge navigation team were excellent, with passengers regularly updated I did notice however, there was an amount of anamosity between senior and junior staff

Loved the whole cruise.It was a bit last minute as it was a really good price. Apart from Busan and Nagasaki we had not been to these ports before I was a bit concerned after we booked finding out it was japan summer holidays,but really did not find anything that was crowded Even on board ship there was hardly ever more than a dozen people on the promenade deck always loads of chairs.overall an exellent cruise.The Japanese people were very helpful and gracious The only down side was it was hot and humid walking around.

Poor to terrible food same menu and entertainment after the first tweet

Japanese ports were safe and well organised. Not expecting that much emphasis on WW 2 battles

Som förstagångskryssare är vi mycket nöjda. God och varierande mat på fartyget. Vi var nöjda med våra utflykter. Mycket smidig ombordstigning.

All together very good experience. Would recommend this ship and itinerary.

Princess cruises charge a fortune for excursions and therefore your cruise will cost a lot more than expected especialy as it is also in US€

Cruising Japan is beautifull! We did sailed a second week to Okinawa, Ishigaki and Taiwan. It seem to be a must to do for a lot of Japanese, amd we loved it.

Would have been great if we had a full day in penang.

My overall experience positive. This was my first cruise and I was impressed with Crystal's efficiencey, cleanliness and the staff's positive attitude and ability. There was confusion in my group about tipping policies. That could be made clearer by the company. I felt most of the ports of call experience was less than exciting. They were okay but very toursity (for obvious reasons), however, maybe there's no where else to go up there or not much else to do. The on board experience was very good so I would definitely consider Crystal Cruise line for my next cruise. I would be more careful about desitinations and time. Three weeks was a long time for me to not see that much.

Looking forward to trying different cruiselines to see if my expectations to experience luxury and relaxation without the heavy-handed marketing are unrealistic.

cruise was brilliant however the shops were to exclusive for us

The worst cruise we have ever been on, would never cruise on MSC again, very disorganised, staff not attentive as on other cruise lines. Poor entertainment, not very clean. Poor service with cold food in the restaurant with no rectification of it. No apology when things go wrong

Great ship, great itinerary but unfortunately MSC can't organize anything. MSC needs to look at how other cruise lines do things. Food was very poor standard. Overall we had a great cruise but MSC is not a cruise line I would recommend. I have cruised on many other lines and MSC would be on the bottom of list for me.

My overall impression of the Spectrum, is that it is what it is, and out of 5 I would rate it a 4. But we probably won't see it in Europe or the US any time soon.

Interesting to have been through the Suez Canal. The ship experience was not up to the usual Celebrity standard.

It was a nice. relaxing cruise, we enjoyed very much. We were all port earlier, except Petra, so it was the most interesting for us. I write a blog our cruise www.nagykati.hu Ask me, if you have question.

The cruise was amazing. Food was good a big variety and something for everyone. Main dining room was good amazing food and fabulous staff so fun and smiley and nice. Izumi and Giovannis also good food. Entertainment staff were so much fun and really nice made us feel welcome and happy. Clean and tidy ship

Great cruise. Fabulous ports of call. Embarked Singapore, then Penang, Cochin, Mumbai and Dubai.
