Wonderfull World Cruise but much better after 3 weeks when they changed our cabin to get away from the noise.

World Cruise - Melbourne to Sydney

Sail date: May 22, 2017

Ship: Sea Princess

Cabin type: Inside

Cabin number: P342

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 7 years ago

Review summary

World Cruise of 102 days departing from Melbourne and arriving in Sydney after circumnavigating the world. Worth doing to see so many ports and make lots of new friends. Most people on the ship were from Australia and New Zealand. Many did the full round trip.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Only about 400 people were getting on in Melbourne so the queue was not very long. They did not think to tell us that we would not be sailing at 5pm. We sailed the next morning at 10am.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Tried the steakhouse for the first time only complaint is that there is way too much lovely food.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

The things we wanted to do clashed with each other and our meal times.

Older comedians all seem to have the same handbook of jokes.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5

Cabin P342 is next to a service access with trollies full of dishes going through at all hours to be washed in a metal sink only about 4 foot away from our common wall. Very noisy right through the night, could not sleep.

Ship tip

Make sure you do not have service access next to your cabin.

Wonderful, outstanding cruise! Long time before I could even dream of this cruise. The tips alone for this are my normal cruise budget. Glad you, and so many others could experience this unique pleasure.
