Princess Cruises Reviews

This Princess Cruise was a great way to see a lot of the UK in 12 days. We started with some extra days in London including a trip to Buckingham Palace and then boarded the ship for our cruise. We covered a lot of great locations on the cruise but be aware this is not the Carribean. It's an adventure and a trip through time all in one. Not much time to relax or enjoy some of the things you would do on a more casual cruise. Weather was great for us, some really hot days and some cooler ones and something we didn't expect was there wasnt a drop of rain the whole trip. We were in the month of August so I don't know if that made a difference or not. The Regal Princess is a very beautiful ship that holds over 3000 passengers yet it was very easy to get around and off and on. Lucky for us we were the only ship that docked in all our ports so getting on and off even with some tenders was no problem at all. Lots of trasportation options and tours to choose from on this cruise. For the most part we chose the Hop on Hop off tours so we could see the most in the least amount of time. Food on board was great in the 3 regular dining rooms and our staff was wonderful. We caught most of the shows and had a fun time. Only compliant was they allow smoking in the casino and the slot machines are so tight that you can ran out of your gambling budget in a few days. As the cruise went on the casino got quiter and quiter every night! We hopped off in Le Havre with special permission and toured Paris and Versailles for 5 more days and left from Paris. All in all it was a great experince even for us seniors including one with some mobility issues.
