9 Nights Japan Intensive: Kobe, Takamatsu & Tokyo Cruise

Best guide on the island and best crew/staff ever

If you’re looking for a great day to explore the island of Bermuda and its history, look for Lewis at Reliable Taxi Service. He showed us the best places for beautiful scenery and pictures as well as explaining the history and life of the island. He provided us with an authentic Bermuda experience, including local grilled fish on a quiet beach. What a fantastic guide and a fantastic day. While we could have been disappointed from our reception at the port check in, we were warmly received onboard and quickly found our cabin. The rest of the cruise has been fantastic. The staff and crew on this ship has been great at every level and the food on this ship is consistently the best we have ever experienced onboard a ship. The farewell crew talent show was the best entertainment we’ve seen in many years. So 5 stars for NCL for this itinerary and kudos to the entire staff and crew of the NCL Getaway.

Carnival Pride

All went Great, Food in Restaurants was well done. Happy with stateroom attendant Imade and Wirdeo were the best. We Will definitely cruise again. Cruising from Baltimore does well. You do loose time cruising down the bay and Atlantic to get to the Caribbean. Sometimes the seas can be rough seas heading down. We have had rough ocean with big waves before. Not on this trip. We heard the previous cruise to Greenland we heard they had frozen waters which stopped stopping in some ports. Looking forward to future trips on the cruise line. We are avid cruisers and cruise often. We heard the offer could deals if you are an avid Casino gambling. I was told to let every one know that the Guys diner with hamburgers and fries. Yes the fries were definitely the best and always hot. The sushi restaurant is well worth the extra money and saki.

Research and you won’t be disappointed.

We just finished our 9th Norwegian cruise. We’ve also cruised Royal and Carnival. This cruise was exactly wanted. We’ve been on the bigger ships and smaller. Each has their benefits. We loved a smaller ship for this experience. You are always in port, so getting off of the boat is the main point. The comedian, cirque style duo, and magician were typical cruise entertainment and the whole family enjoyed them. The food was the same as on every NCL boat. We thought things were maybe seasoned a little heavier, but it was pretty typical. Our agent told us to treat it as a floating hotel you can use to see the islands without repacking. If you go into it with that mentality, I don’t thing you’ll be disappointed. We found the crew to be pleasant and more laid back. We did not have any negative interactions the entire cruise. It was an older crowd, and most didn’t seem to be there to party. It was always easy to get a drink (I think I waited for then 5 minutes once.
