Norwegian Getaway Cruise Reviews - Reviews

The Haven was amazing. The staff made EVERY aspect of the cruise more enjoyable and stress free. So I think we would have had a different experience if we were in not in a suite.

They need to improve the communication to passengers. I’ve been on a lot of cruises so we figured things out, but this boat could do a lot to make the trip more fun. It was freezing cold and the only smoking room was outside. My impression is that the staffs job is to sell you stuff you don’t need. Felt really pressured to spend which wasn’t much fun

As first time NCL passenger I was surprised by the overall value for money.

Copenhagen to St. Petersburg and Baltic capitals was outstanding trip. Each port provided interesting experience. English was spoken every where and VISA credit card avoided need to get Kroners, Euros, Rubbles, etc. People friendly. Recommend this trip to everyone.

This was our 5th NCL cruise. We will not be taking another. No towels on the bed, no Captains dinner, Everything was an upcharge.(drinks, specialty, coffee after dinner.) Activities were lame.

FOOD WAS TERRIBLE ALL OVER EXCEPT O'SHEENAN'S . FOOD ON 15TH FLOOR SAME ALL THE TIME. FOOD AT THE TROPICANA IS THE SAME STORY. SHANGHAI RESTAURANT YOU SHOULD CLOSE. FOOD TRUCKS COOKS BETTER THAN YOUR FOOD. WE WERE AT THE NCL EPIC LAST YEAR AND NO COMPLAIN. EVEN THE FOOD AT CARNIVAL AND ROYAL CARRIBEAN ARE BETTER. NCL GETAWAY IS A DISAPPOINTMENT.

good experience, just the very sonsa food and the very bad and expensive shopping

Good (OK) cruise at a great price. Drink package was great to have.

Enjoyed the sports of call. My room was good and I got a great price. However, they do nickle and dime you for everything. The drink gratuity is a joke!

The Norwegian Getaway was a fantastic ship. I appreciated the multitude of restaurants and bars. The food was excellent!!! Compliments to the chef. Free-style dining made it even better. The staff provided outstanding service. Always smiling and willing to provide assistance. This was my first cruise and now I am hooked. I am already looking at NCL cruises for next year. Thank you!

The mini suite was nice, although the balcony was tiny. The walking area on 16 was fair, there was no full ship walking area on 7 or 8. The smoking area on 15 was inhuman, the cigar lounge stuffy and over lit. Cruise director was nonexistent. All complementary dining very weak.

This is our first Norwegian cruise and found out it is a huge ship. Enjoy the entertainment on board. Our 250 min internet access is a joke, slow. Also, signing out is needed every time. I thought I signed out one time, but it didn't. So it consumed the rest of my minutes in 3 hours. It should intelligent enough to sign off when your smartphone phone went to sleep.

This cruise was fantastic. Getting a sea day at the end was a bonus because we could rest up for the long trip home.

Best cruise we have been on. Only two days at sea and the Norwegian crew took very good care and attention to us.

Overall, this trip met or exceeded our expectations and since we were planning it for more than two-years, that's a really good thing!

We had very bad experience from the tie time we booked the cruise. The waiting time for call to be answered was minimum 40 minutes, and even when some one pick up, you cannot be sure that the agent will be there to complete your request. We were two families, We called the shore excursion agent to book the excursion. We booked the same excursions for us and our brother-in-law. Traditional History and City Highlights fo Helsinki. They booked the wrong one for our brother-in-law, and goofed by booked them for Helsinki by land & sea. Then even that ticket was not in the cabin. We had to go back to the shore excursion desk and have it changed. The clerk was kind enough to get us accommodated on a nearly full bus

Great ports. Million Dollar Quartet was excellent. The beverage package is good if included. If not, it is outrageously expensive. Pay by the drink if you are not on it unless you drink all day and all night.

It was my first cruise and I was pleasantly surprised. I felt a sense of community and the energy/vibe was so positive. The amount of activities offered made it easy for anyone to find things they enjoy and there was enough space on the boat for people to find spots of solitude. The food, company, activities, and organization exceeded my expectations. I will cruise again:).

Food not impressive...good meal at Ocean Blue and Le Bistro...very loud ship . Very nice room decorations for our 50th anniversary ....lovely cakes for our anniversary

Needless to say this was not one of our favorite cruises. Not sure whether it is Norwegians problem or the captains but we are very dissatisfied with the company
