“Wonderful Destinations, Mediocre Cruise”
3 Stars
Ship: Norwegian Star
Cruise Date: 09/15/2024
Destination: Europe
Overall, we had a wonderful vacation. However, there was a stark contrast between the destinations and the cruise itself. I'll start off by saying all crew from stewards, to dining staff did a very good job. My wife and I don't really partake in entertainment onboard. For us, bed and food are our primary concerns onboard. Unfortunately, both there woefully inadequate. The bed was remarkably hard. So much so, that both my wife and I woke up sore every morning. Onboard, we dined at three specialty restaurants in addition to parking of regular dining and the buffet We found the food to be me

“Quebec City to Boston”
3 Stars
Ship: Norwegian Gem
Cruise Date: 09/13/2024
Destination: USA/Canada
We enjoyed all ports, staff on ship were nice. The Captain was very visible and engaging. We found the food very mediocre except for the specialty dining. This was our first cruise with Norwegian, compared to other cruises (Holland and Princess) Norwegian's food was not as good, handwashing and cleaning not as high of standard. I noticed many people with colds (including my husband) toward the end of cruise. Ship was older and our room was very cramped.

“Beautiful Alaska”
3 Stars
Ship: Norwegian Sun
Cruise Date: 09/09/2024
Destination: Alaska
Loved seeing the beauty of Alaska! Loved spending time with lifelong friends! But, I was not in love with the Norwegian Sun. It is an older ship and that shows. Our ocean view cabin had a shortage of storage and a water leak in the tiniest bathroom ever! The food in the Main Dining Rooms was adequate, but rarely was great. The Chocolate Lava Cake was delicious, and the only dessert I finished! Teppanyaki Restaurant was fun with lots of yummy fun! Internet was spotty. Getting on and off the ship was very easy! Staff was fantastic! Music in lounges was entertaining. Be warned the Sport

Cabin 6101, inside worst we ever had. Needed to jump over the couch to get to the left side of the bed. Pizza only available from 11:30 till 3 pm?. Buffet left a lot to be desired.

“Good itinerary ”
4 Stars
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway
Cruise Date: 09/01/2024
Destination: USA/Canada
I enjoyed the stops, but didn't take any shore excursions. Buffet food was great, but we were disappointed in the restaurant offerings. The Irish pub had 1 Irish dish on menu. The Brazilian restaurant service was slow and some of the servers skipped our table even though we had the Yes sign up.

“Ports were great, ship was so-so”
3 Stars
Ship: Norwegian Breakaway
Cruise Date: 09/01/2024
Destination: USA/Canada
I loved the ports we visited and I think the itinerary was great. However, the NCL Breakaway is far too crowded, and there are too many dining options that are behind a premium charge. The shore excursions were also lackluster and not worth the money. You could have much more fun and spend a lot less money by simply planning your day in each port on your own.

Took this cruise with friends who were first time cruisers. We loved the ship, but most of all the scenery. This trip allowed us all to return to Iceland together and to see a unique part of the world. Hiking in Greenland was super!

A DREAM COME TRUE VACATION WITH NCL. Service was great and the ship despite being 10 years old was still in good shape and clean. Best of all was the friendly crew and the smooth disembarkation on each island plus the plethora of dining options. My kids loved the slides and the kids club.

“Simply Amazing ”
5 Stars
Ship: Norwegian Encore
Cruise Date: 07/28/2024
Destination: Alaska
The itinerary was awesome. Glacier Bay National Park was incredibly beautiful. The ship actually does 360° turns at key areas. We were so lucky to have great weather, no rain! There are no photos that can compare to seeing Alaska in person. This was a once in a lifetime experience. I had a single inside cabin. It was just big enough and had a screen with the view of outside the ship. Also, had a private suite attached with coffe, tea, wine and snacks.

Loved the ports and time in each port but the ship needs a complete rehab. The “upgraded balcony room” was far from an upgrade! Our room did not look like the pictures. Carpet was old. Ripped and unglued- tripping hazard, drawers broken, toilet plumbing issue and balcony door hard to slide. Maintenance was in our room and on our floor constantly. Also process to tender, disembark ship and meet tour group were all disorganized. We took Norwegian off our list for future cruises.
