Norwegian Prima Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Well worth. Make sure you dress warmly! Bring raincoats!!!

Overall we were happy with the cruise experience which would have been better with a few tweaks as previously stated.

The cruise itinerary is overwhelmingly the best thing about this cruise. The ship has its deficiencies . Don't think I would use the Prima again. Service and staff A+. Ship and especially cabin design is C-. Tipping policy on drink and food packages is exorbitant! Passenger tipping at $20 per person per day is approaching deal breaker status.

We were disappointed with the Shore Excursions especially we are paying so much monies and not sure how much quality control NCL performs once the local tours are outsourced. They lacked using Sound Enhancing equipment such as Whisper Boxes etc to ensure the patrons are able to listen to the Tour Guide not everyone can walk at their speed and given the fact there is limited space one can walk in tandem with the Tour Guide this should never have been an issue that we should raise. The Airconditoning system on bus in Bergen was not working in a bus full of people and 81degrees Farenheit this was really bad. I would like my monies back. As a matter of fact I was really happy with Shore Excursions Group I used for 2 of my local tours. Also our trip Polar Flight to Grimsey was literally cancelled last minute we were scrambling to get another local tour. It was frustrating.

We enjoyed this cruise very much. Very nice ship. I think the public spaces were too small considering the passenger capacity.

It’s still a new ship with too many people and not enough spaces to accommodate the huge crowd, wished food quality would be better.

Loved doing a Transatlantic cruise. Enjoyed peaceful days at sea. Prima, while a beautiful ship is not meant for cold weather cruising. Too many people crammed inside in many little venues. Specialty Restaurants were outstanding.

Fix the overcrowding and make sure there is food available.

Great cruise! Good mix of ports and sea days. Allowed us to visit ABC islands while departing from Galveston near our home. Bonaire and the private island in the Bahamas were our favorite. Not sure why NCL excursions have zero reviews. They should have thousands. (Only place I could make this comment in the survey). Best inside stateroom I’ve been in. Great shower and lots of electrical and USB outlets). Very good food and entertainment. Not the best activity venues for my liking. Get rid of the humidor. Smells up the hallway with cigar odor. Resize the pickleball court.

We had a great time. The prima is a beautiful ship. The waiter we had in the Hudson was great. We asked for him each night we ate at the Hudson. The local had great wings and ice cream sundae.

This was our first time traveling on NCL. Our room was great! But be careful about booking forward balcony rooms. You may be overlooking the bow of the ship if you're on a lower floor and that would really suck. We were in room 12102, so high enough that our view wasn't obstructed but the deck was TINY.

We really enjoyed the Prima & the relaxed atmosphere. The food, entertainment and servers were amazing. We loved it!

Great relaxation cruise for us. It was Spring Break and there were a few gangs of feral children, but mostly parents seemed to keep their kids under control.

Very disappointed about Splash Academy wasted time and our balcony obstructed view. Otherwise, great cruise. We have cruised with Norwegian several times in the past and plan to take more cruises. Hope to see situations like the ones mentioned corrected in the future.

Michael was extremely helpful with every aspect of our trip - from finding us adjoining staterooms (even though we booked pretty late), making recommendations for shore excursions, and giving us tips and suggestions for dining and activities. The ship (NCL Prima) was outstanding and the vacation was perfect!

Cruise was great fun...a bit crowded but not too much. Pools are inadequate but the kids loved the go karts.

We have been on several cruises and would rate this one at the top end. This cruise has a relaxed dress code for those that don't want to have to dress up. The buffet area is much smaller and the selection not as extensive as some of the other cruises we have sailed. If you hit the timing right, there won't be a huge crowd. We found that eating breakfast at Hudson's was perfect for us.

This is a good, solid cruise on a very pretty ship. The ship has a lot that is good, but the overall design and venue sizes really take away from the enjoyment bringing the ship overall down to a 3.5 star while the staff and quality are 4+ stars. Overall worth it!

Our first cruise was so much FUN and a great success. This trip was with 38 people from our resort in Texas and really added to the Fun. We are already making plans with other friends to go on a cruise.... just need to decide which ship and if we want to go this coming Fall or next Spring. Will probably be another Carribean cruise. Curious... if we all four book together at the same time in which cruisers #3 and #4 get a special or "free" trip (just paying taxes and fees)... does that mean they would share a room with us or would they get their own room? 

Even though we had a great time, Prima disappointed with the design and layout of the ship.
