Norwegian Breakaway Cruise Reviews - Reviews

It was highly unorganized and not enough activities were provided.

Norwegian is the worst!! Terrible food that they serve the same day after day. Wait 45 min to get seated in the main dining room. You're always waiting for something. Everything is super expensive like the drinks, and they nickel and dime you on everything. Do yourself a favor and go with Royal Caribbean. They are 100 times better and a great value!

Cruise was great, due to the places we visited. Was disappointing to miss 3 excursions but there were safety issues that needed to be taken into account.

For my first cruise I would have to say I was mostly dissapointed. Average food, very crowded ship, particularly trying to eat and find your way to the bar, buffet, etc., especially on days we did not port (3 days) Staff was very kind and helpful. Bibggest complaint is that we were entitled to credits due to missed ports and excursions. The credits were minimal, less than $100, but to get them we had to wait in line for almost 2 hours to get the cash. I cannot beleive that we cold not be credited automatically, and we believe it was so we would give up waiting and not apply for the credit. Then we also found out that you very specifically had to ask the right questions to receive your credit. This is unacceptanle treatment and becuase of this we will never use Norweigian again as we feel when you do not go to 3 of your intended port on a 10 day cruise you have missed quite a bit of the reason you paid for it with very little compensation.

This is a very port-intensive itinerary and can be pretty tiring but it every stop had something unique to offer and was well worth it.

Not pleased with the price/value. Your company is not good at returning phone calls. All in all. I'd not do this again.

The Shore Excursion desk opened daily at 5pm. If you had to cancel an excursion 48 hrs prior, being at the desk at 5pm was not acceptable, therefore we lost out on an excursion and lost our $320! Not acceptable!! The Excursion staff was not friendly or helpful! Also, we ported in to Athens late and missed out on part of our excursion and no one notified us of the cancellation or delay until we were sitting down in the Manhattan Room and then once on our bus was told the excursion to the Parthenon was cancelled! We would of booked a different excursion. Then again, Norwegian just wanted our money! The Ports were overcrowded, Tour Guides were not very good, Delays getting back on the ship!

Different floors had toilet problems throughout the cruise, we had our toilet run over in middle of night and woke up at 3am to the entire bathroom flooded with water and sewage. They repaired it within 2 hours but there is a problem with lines on that ship for all these problems. Our friends went over 24 hrs with toilet being broken.

Honestly the actions of Norwegian made this the worse vacation of my life.

The ship was nice, the staff was exceptional. The food was so so. The Brazilian steak house was awful, the Italian place was very good.

This is a very nice cruise. However there is only one sea day. If you do the tours at each port like we did it can be grueling for the faint of heart. There is a lot to see for a first timer to Europe.

We had a wonderful time. The staff was great, as well as the food and service. The ship needs an overhaul and update. The ports were nice and the excursions were worth it.

The overall cruise was very disappointing as NCL did nothing to control the very intoxicated adults on the cruise (many, many people were drinking hard liquor very early in the morning and were intoxicated by mid-day) or the unruly children. We had kids running up and down our hallways until well past midnight almost every night. They were extremely loud and unruly and no one held their parents responsible.

Ship is big, well maintained, fantastic service, they do a very good job on keeping it clean at all times. what took my attention is the how well the crew work, the are very kind, always with a smile and attempting to help. The are always greeting you whenever you cross them by. impressed with the service.

It was ok, too many ports and some of the workers weren’t so nice. The tendering made everything more stressful and I missed my excursion . I felt that the shows weren’t enough and not enough different food.

The ship was well below par especially since we have sailed on Royal Caribbean and Disney in the past. This did not compare. Never sailing with NCL again. Their BOGO airfare promo is atrocious if you are traveling with multiple staterooms. I would rate the cruise a 3 and only because the ports of call are mostly great.

I would not choose Norwegian again. Someone in party needed medical attention and it was not available. Every cruise ship should offer basic first aid without requiring expensive doctor consultation during open hours (very sporadic) or being told to disembark and go to pharmacy in port.

We loved our cruise, we can't wait to cruise, again. We are trying to figure out why we haven't cruised sooner!

Go to the Art Gallery and book your tours directly with the ship.

This was a big booze and druggie cruise. Some guy dropped something in my daughter’s drink and Norwegian had us pay for the drug test! Ridiculous.
