Mediocre experience on NCL for neophyte cruisers by tlarocca2

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

The internet is horrible, you waste at least half your time waiting for stuff to refresh and NCL could not care less- in fact it's to their benefit as you end up having to purchase more time. And the Optional restaurants are just ok, we never had a great meal and these Optional restaurants are in addition to the meal plan we purchased. I would never cruise NCL again-- it was a 2.5 star experience at best. many people on board said the same thing and they are cruise savvy-- they say try RC. And their Medical facilities/personel are not US certified Doctors. Probably common on cruises, but our treatment for my wife was less then adequate

Adriatic Cruise on a Star by jlareau

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

Cruise ship is very comfortable and the weather was exceptional. Our suite was good and the cafes and restaurants were good. The ports along the Adriatic coast are interesting and well worth a visit. As always, due to departure times, it is not possible to spend as much time as desired in most of the ports. We have sailed on other cruises which offered more appealing theatrical entertainment and classes on topics such as Microsoft photo software.

NCL Star - never again by atheone33

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

Will never use Norwegian again. I am so disappointed in them that I️ will now go out of my way to tell everyone how bad they were to us. The ports of call need to be longer and the staff needs a lesson in manners.

Adriatic Sea Norwegian Star VAcation by Cruiser606

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

The cruise was a fantastic experience. I highly recommend this trip to anyone who loves beautiful sites and history. Take advantage of the hospitality of the folks who live in these places. The people were friendly for the most part and most of them spoke English.

Beautiful cruise after rough start. by maybeatle

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

Getting into Venice 4 days ahead of time allowed us to get over jet lag and see the city. The cruise was more enjoyable than expected since the citizens of the ports were very friendly (except for one guy, but that made for a good story). Each port was unique and we were glad to see the environment of the Montenegro and Croatia countries and why people love living there. As for Greece, these islands were all new to us and we can truly say we saw a different side of Greece than the mainland. The time in each port was shorter than our past NCL cruises to the eastern/western Med and Alaska, which is why we took a lot of highlights tours. All in all, a very special part of the world to visit!

Greek Isles NCL Star - Great Cruise Oct 2017 by clevelandmb

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

Norwegian Star suite and super ports in Greek Isles areas. Spend a couple of days in Venice before or after cruise. Avoid cabins above Spinnaker Lounge on Deck 8 - very noisy at night.

Great Itenerary, poor service and terrible food by tennisgretch

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

The itinerary was great, the food and service were terrible. The ship is tired looking and could use a deep cleaning. I would not cruise on Norwegian Cruise Lines again.

Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

I had a really good impression, and now am just wishing to come and travel again. Next time I will try to go for a cruise with Norwegian to the Hawaiian Islands.

Great ports just an OK ship by gaforte

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

Good cruise ports. Was not crazy about the overall experience on the ship. I think you can find a much better experience for the cost of this cruise.

Very Impressed with Norwegian by CruiselineSarah

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe

Overall I had a wonderful first trip to Europe, first week-long cruise, and first time sailing with Norwegian Cruise Line. They really impressed me with the food and service especially, and I can't wait to sail with them again.

Honeymoon Cruise by tuckerabbott

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

My wife and I took this cruise for our honeymoon, and we had an overall good experience. I had been to Europe previously but my wife had never been. The specialty food on board the ship was great, but the complimentary food left something to be desired. I wish we had more time to explore at each port (expect 30 minutes taken for both arrival and departure out of the overall time listed for each port). The excursions are great for inexperienced travelers, but if you're more experienced I would highly recommend exploring the destinations on your own.

Lovely cruise! by andsaw

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

We had a great time with our friends and our son. It was a nice ship and the staff was very friendly. Our cabin was a balcony and was well equipped. We had been out touring Italy for 3 weeks before the cruise and so it was nice to unpack for a full week and let the ship deal with the details. Already looking at a cruise for next year.

Cruised with Friends by sannsiltre8

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

We traveled as a couple with another couple who are good friends of ours. We had an amazing time, we just wished there were longer port times to get things in--especially in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Again, the ship is beautiful, but we kept saying to ourselves that it would have been more relaxing if it had been an adults only ship, or that the ship was larger and had more spaces that allowed for kids and families to enjoy along with those of us adults who wanted some space to ourselves. We have kids of our own, but will usually take them on cruises that are larger so there is more for them to do. Other than that, the ship is beautiful and we still had a lovely time.

Summer Trip with Kids by satis

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

The trip was great experience, the cruise ship was somewhat aged vessel in need of upgrades. The service and staff were great, the entertainment was super; our kids and us adults very much enjoyed it. The places visited were awesome but would have preferred a longer layover in Dubrovnic.

Short family cruise by joem72

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

All in all it was a good experience. The biggest let down was the concierge for our suite who was utterly useless. We stayed in the haven last year on epic so set a high bar coming onto this ship and it was decent.

Norwegian Star - unremarkable by lizgreg

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

Very unremarkable cruise. Would not sail with Norwegian again. Staff did not go out of their way to make this a stress-free vacation. Bartenders argued. Guest services refused to assist. Could never find anyone at the excursion desk. Wine selection was disgusting.

Summer Cruise of the Adriatic by ruthfrankey

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Star / Destination: Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

This cruise was a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the summer and visit some beautiful small cities along the Adriatic without having to pack and unpack each day. Evening entertainment was excellent and overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable time.

Great cruise. Ports of call were great. Loved the suite. Great staff on the ship. Specialty dinners are the best. Best part of the cruise was the butler. Easy on and off the ship experience.
