Norwegian Spirit Reviews

All in all very good cruise. I would definitely cruise with Norwegian again.

Did not like the food in the Raffles Court that much. it was ok. The food in the specialty restaurants and in the main dining rooms was much better. The itinerary was great!

The Spirit is one of the older ships in the NCL fleet, but it's clean and well-maintained. It doesn't have all the fancy bells and whistles that the newer mega-ships have, but the smaller capacity means the ship is easier to get around and feels more intimate. The staff was fabulous; everyone was friendly, helpful, and did their best to make our vacation fantastic. The food and drink were perfectly fine, and so were the activities. We really appreciated the Freestyle Cruising concept, and were happy we weren't forced to eat at assigned times, sitting with strangers. We very much enjoyed the itinerary; every port was different, and with the exception of the massive issues with returning to the ship in Santorini, all the ports were really wonderful. Overall this was a fantastic vacation, and we definitely look forward to Cruising like a Norwegian again in the future :)

We really enjoyed the cruise. Weather in Greek Islands from late spring is warm to hot while there's lots of history and culture to experience. Ship was excellent - food, shows etc. We will look forward to our return.

Overall a good introduction to some of the more popular Greek islands. Norwegian Spirit is a nice ship and well maintained. Entertainment is very canned. No acoustical guitar, no comedians, and little magic. Just expect a lot of flash and no substance. Not one Beatles or Stones song in the "Rock and Soul" show. Skip the specialty restaurants and spend the money ashore on authentic cuisine.

As I said that I won't cruise on Norweigan again due to the salty food, and a man jumping off the boat causing us to miss a port that we paid to see. There was no compensation from the ship to make me want to try another cruise.

Only negative was the wine police that CONFISCATED our stuff. Chinsey chinsey chinsey

Great itinerary. Very comfortable balcony room. Generally good on the food, but menu should be revised to include more vegetarian/vegan friendly options. Stage entertainment very good.

We booked this cruise because of the itinerary and are very happy we did this. Great itinerary. HOWEVER, we had two very rocky days at sea. We had 17 foot waves for over 36 hours. I'm not sure this ship was designed for these type of waves and swells. On the second night at sea, many passengers said they had difficulty not being rocked out of their beds.

Overall, we made the best of our vacation but it was not the cruise for us. We were surprised to find everything on the ship in English with the majority of guests being from the U.K., then America, then Asia. But with a long overseas trip, almost everyone was over the age of 65. The service was poor, the food was poor, the cruise director Dave was terrible, and the activity schedule was poorly planned.

I will take this cruise again some day to visit the ports we missed due to weather.

This is a great cruise for history lovers. Every port has some very interesting venues to see and learn something new. Since I went in December, this was not a typical go to the sun type vacation, but the history and culture more than made up for the low temperatures. Still managed to come back with a tan.

A good price bargain for booking a year and a half in advance. Interesting ports of call itinerary. An aging ship too small for 2200 passengers. Do not need shopping opportunities on excursions.

The ports of call were good...places we hadn't been to before. The ship was just ok...old...and entertainment we had seen before. We were surprised how many smokers there were on the ship. Cigarette smoke wafted down one stairwell/elevator area in particular.

great cruise ,staff was good,all trips was good.This is averwelming what you are asking

great cruise overall food entertainment tours service. We have cruised on other ships that were not as attentive as yours in the above mentioned areas.

Highly recommend this cruise! We bought the beverage plan and may rethink that going forward, especially if taking as many excursions as we did. The average drink is $10., you do the math. Do not splurge for the wi-fi, it is nice to disconnect. Not to mention we heard from those who did and they had terrible coverage.

We had a fabulous time on the ship and at each port. This is a great cruise to both relax and explore. I would recommend that if you love history or are looking for an exciting vacation, do this cruise while you're young. As young adults, we came back from each port exhausted. There is so much to see and most of the old towns you visit require a lot of walking - and walking on uneven steps and cobblestone streets. I also believe we got lucky with the time of year. We went during the first two weeks of November which resulted in fewer crowds and lower prices at flea markets. If each port was filled with another 6,000 people, I believe my review would probably be a bit different. I would highly recommend this cruise to others!

WE ONLY WISH TO SAY THAT WE WERE REALLY SATISFIED WITH THIS CRUISE EXPERIENCE, THIS BEING OUR 4TH NCL CRUISE. ANYWAY, IN CASE OF A FUTURE NCL CRUISE WE WOULD SELECT A VESSEL NOT AS OLD AS THE SPITIR.

Love this cruise line, especially the food and staff! Every port gave me a great experience. The perks from Norwegian are a great incentive for loyal customers. Can't wait to plan our next one!
