Review summary

Barcelona to Dubai  Just bad Agree with all the bad reviews. Newly refurbished ship with newly refurbished staff. Odor from the wet rugs and toxic fumes- sinus condition for 4 weeks and still have it. Tour guides awful- disembarkation awful Pre cruise hotel awful. This was just a horrific experience. Tour to Luxor cowboy driver. 3 hours- Everyone was afraid to get up and use rest room. I tried and almost fell- and I have great balance- Hubby threw up and missed first tour day recuperating. Disembarkation awful experience. Promised late transfer but did not happen. Was told if I dont like it to take a taxi and use the elevator to haul own luggage. And they make a 300% mark up on the pre cruise hotel. I was forced to do private tour at one port for $899 and the  private guide made $350 and had to pay hts overnite so he was left with $150. Awful--I could go on and on. Never told us it was a newly refurbished ship. They know cruise experts warn against that. They asked for time to get better- Yeah for that price I was not pleased to be the training program. Ugh stay away

OMG. So sorry you had such a bad trip....but I'm also astonished!. We LOVE "Voyager"! The staff have always been solicitous and professional. The ship is a lovely size and very comfortable. Our pre-cruise hotels were always very acceptable, and transfers were convenient. The one in Copenhagen even included a tour of the city, to fill the time between check-out and boarding. We never sail with anyone but Regent!
