Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Explorer of the Seas / Destination: South Pacific

Always enjoyable. The service from our waiters unbelievable. They certainly make our holiday special! Our Dinner waiters Rahul,Andreea, somanath, Setiawan were more than helpful, they went over and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Fe the waitress at The Tavern bar kept our thirsts at bay!Kumar in Security was friendly & informative. Cant rate them high enough.

Enjoyable & entertaining cruise. Staff fabulous by Rozzie77

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Sea Princess / Destination: Australasia

Really enjoyed it. Except Sea Princess do not offer a drinks package or coffee card. We only found out once on board so it did make a significant difference to our spending $$ on the ship No towel animals on beds

Okay by misshope

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Sea Princess / Destination: Australasia

Our cruise was delayed for disembarkment which delayed us from being able to do anything for the first day. Weather was pretty bad to no fault of their own so I did get a little sick. Some staff were amazing but some also weren’t that great, casino made up their own rules and some of the dealers were a bit rude with no personality. Some restaurants were good with food but took ages to be served to us. Overall it was a good cruise but We expected better.

Extended family celebration by allyB29

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Ovation of the Seas / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

I was reluctant to try such a large ship but it was fantastic and there was still plenty of quiet places to be found or lots of things to do if you felt that way inclined. The captain kept us updated with any rough weather and was very reassuring. Everyone seemed very relaxed enjoying a wonderful time

Disappointing Cruise by headdie61

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Queen Elizabeth / Destination: Australasia

While the ship itself was absolutely incredible, the same cannot be said about the staff, food, entertainment or onboard activities. It was very disappointing.

2000 miles from South Pole and back by Frogland56

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Solstice / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

We enjoyed it. Only a few gripes and we're fussy. Ports of call were excellent but didn't like 3 sea days before disembarcation - but again that may be us as I know some people love sea days

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Viking Sun / Destination: South Pacific

Trip of a lifetime, Viking took care of everything from pre cruise to post cruise. they treat you like a king , been on over 10 cruises and they have the happiest crew in the industry. It is really a pleasure for them to serve you.

Amazing Race disembarking for an emergency by WANTS2travlMORE

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Golden Princess / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

Once we got word that my mother had been taken to the emergency department, the Princess staff was extremely helpful. They expedited our embarkation onto the ship so that we could take care of our phone communication while on the ship. Having to advocate for my mother over the phone in the lines wouldn't have been pretty! They were so kind. We were praying that she just had a UTI. In the end my mother had a brain bleed and was on her way to having a craniotomy performed. We had to leave our beautiful room and miss three days of rest at sea (sigh). This trip was planned many years ago, but off the ship we went. The ship was performing the Muster drill when we flew off the ship with suitcases in tow. The look of confusion on everyone's face was difficult to bear as tears streamed down my face. The next six months were followed with a severe brain infection, another surgery due to the infection, antibiotics, continuous seizures, maximum doses of anti-seizure medications, forced discharge from the hospital, uncaring doctors and so on. The way are elderly are treated in America is nauseating! There is no value placed on their lives and I cannot believe what is allowed! My mother has continued to slowly improve and we are hopeful she will start walking within the year. We have caretakers for her 24 hours a day. I am sorry for the rambling. I am thankful for Princess. My only advise would be to get insurance on every trip you book. We had the Princess Protection plan and received $2200.00 when we pain $2700.00. There are cheaper plans that cover way more items (look up: trip insurance dot com). I hope I can get over my PTSD from that trip and take another trip. I will try to stay closer to home next time. Safe travels and hopefully we will see you on the high seas!

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Solstice / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

We all have a fabulous criuse. Two of our friends have cruised a lot with different ships and they said they preferred Azamara . We have only cruised Celbrity so have nothing to compare with it.

Too much sailing time not enough time spent in ports of call by streakys

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Celebrity Solstice / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

The cruise was a great way to get snapshots but was very disappointed with length of time in ports and so many days at sea. The excursions were pretty poor my advice would be to do your own. The ship was clean. Food was great. Service in Ocean View and outside bars was slow.

Research for book on Cunard by paulcurtis

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Queen Victoria / Destination: South Pacific - Australia

I was revisiting Victoria as she had a recent major makeover which I wanted to see as I was gathering material for my new book High Tea on the Cunard Queens which tells the story of my life spent on every Cunard Queen ever built and the changes seen over the last 55 years. The book will be released by History Press in July 2019
