7 Night Best Of Northern Europe (Copenhagen Roundtrip)

Sail date: April 24, 2022

Ship: Voyager of the Seas

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 2 years ago

Review summary

Could not upload all the photos of the industrial sites visited. Supporting Russian entertainment should not be allowed. Going in circles on the North Sea for 2 days plus is not my idea of a good cruise. Terrible.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Was very good. No problems at all.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Very good food and very nice facilities.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

Nice sports court and miniature golf. Wave pool, tube rides and pools were nice.

Entertainment

2 out of 5

Way less than stellar and Royal Caribbean SHOULD NOT be supporting or using any Russian performers whatsoever! That is unconscionable at this time. I could not go on another RC cruise knowing they support people committing war crimes and genocide.

Children's Programs

Had no children.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Service and staff personnel for room service and wait staff are superior.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

It is fine.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5

It was as fine and as expected.

Ship tip

DO NOT TAKE THIS CRUISE. In seven days we visited only 2 countries, Denmark and Norway. Except Olso the cruise ports are nothing but industrial waste sites. The ship only sailed at 10-12 knots and in circlesnin the North Sea. Terrible itinerary.

Could you explain why Aarhus and Skagen that you say are nothing more than industrail ports with nothing to do got 5 stars while Oslo that you actually liked only got 4 stars.

Sorry you didn't enjoy the cruise, then why did you select it? It's not the speed of the cruise, but the on-board relaxation and experience. This happens anywhere when the ports are close to one another... The entertainment...you don't know their personal situation so shouldn't judge.. were they great perfomers?

I'm sorry you didn't enjoy your journey. Especially I'm sorry you found that Copenhagen was too much gravell. I suppose you didn't take a trip to the town center

Did you not know the itinerary? What did Russia have to do with the cruise?

Sorry you didn't enjoy your cruise. Perhaps a US land based trip would be more your liking.

Thanks for your review although I disagree with your comment about Russian performers. You can’t surely believe all Russian people support this war

The people of Russia have nothing to do with the choices the leaders of the country make!!! I applaud RCCL for allowing hard working people of ANY nationality to make a living! Especially at this time when they may not be able to return home!!

According to you a cruise ship can't employ a person of Russian descent?
