Norwegian Jade Cruise Reviews - Reviews

we found the ship very clean...the staff were very friendly and helpfull...there are some design and process problems in regards to accommodating the large number of people especially in how the garden buffet room is designed...access restrictions from the pool areas to the upper deck....more washrooms in deck areas would be nice...stardust theatre access from the ends would be more efficient....the aft 12 deck for eating was wonderfull...we ate breakfast there each morning...food was average and good number of selections....some juices and lemonade should be provided all day long and not just water and ice tea!

Very well engineered ship, stable in rough seas,and incredibly quiet from engine noise and anchor chains. Beyond the superficial glitz found on all cruise ships, this German built ship (Meyer Werfs Papenburg) functions so well in every detail. Very impressive compared to the French and Italian built cruise ships (Alsthom and Cantineiri).

A nice ship but the decor seems too colorful. Too many restaurants which requires service charges and the service in the main dining areas are not that great.

i love free style cruiseing! the food,service,ports of call all excellent.whats not to like?

I would never go on a NCL FEE STYLE crusie again, I have been on 7 crusies this was the worse.

The agent mentioned that NCL would fall under our previous cruises with Celebrity, so we new what to expect. The biggest difference with the Jade was the inconsistency in making up the cabin. They seemed short on personnel. On the plus side, it docked at the ports that we wanted and the excursions were really enjoyable. Night time rides serenaded in gondolas in Venice, a great tour of Pompeii and Izmir, Turkey stand out. Sadly, the ships hurry to turn around for the next cruise caused them to take us to the airport 4 hours early.

the ship was clean and nice. the staff was not trained so well as on the cruises we did before.

Overall, my group enjoyed the cruise but none of us wish to return to Israel due to traffic issues and bad tour experiences. I will note again, the professionalism of the ship's officers and their availability to travelers.

It was a wonderful experience, beautiful ship and the perfect itinerary.

Another good NCL cruise, good itinerary, food and cabin fine

Overall this was a wonderful adventure. So much to see and do! Worst part was the long flights to and from Athens

If your thinking about doing this cruise, DO IT! It was worth every penny!

Great ports! Most of the time docked in the city or shuttle out of the port provided. All ports of call are easy to explore by yourself or you can use the local tours or taxis or the ship tours provided!

Olympia, and of course Santorini was beautiful. Extensive walking, quaint shop and great food.

The ship itself was an experience -- there were so many different restaurants, activities, and entertainment that you could wander the ship every day and night and find something new or different in every room. In fact, I almost wished we'd had a sea day (or 2) so that I could really make the most of being on board. And I loved waking up in a different location every day and seeing more of the country than I would have otherwise if I'd planned our itinerary myself. The only negative aspect was wanting to do things in each city that we didn't get to, either because we had to prioritize other excursions or because the logistics were too difficult in such short time on land -- but on the other hand, the cruise helped clarify which islands I definitely want to go back to. We loved cruising so much that while on board, we put down deposits for 2 more! I wrote a longer review here: https://www.abreathoffreshsarah.com/2021/10/review-of-norwegian-jade-7-days-in.html

This was our 25th anniversary cruise that had been postponed from 2020. We have always wanted to go to Greece and letting Norwegian be tour "tour guide" was our best decision. The islands visited were all great and the experiences we have will never be forgotten. Thanks!

Fabulous cruise , saw so many different Greek islands

The cruise was awesome and the servers So very courteous and helpful! I felt like a Queen.

If anyone is nervous about cruising again - don't be. NCL handled all protocols like pros and we had a really great experience

The staff were all amazingly friendly and helpful. Cruise stayed on schedule and made it to all ports. It was so relaxing at reduced capacity!
