Cruises/Ferries Reviews
Carnival Legend Cruise Ship
I have never gone on a cruise before, and I didn’t know what to expect. Surprisingly I thought I would be sea sick but the ship rides so smooth that I wasn’t sick at all. It was a wonderful cruise. The food is just exquisite and …
Waterfront Boat Company Sunset Cruise
Since the Waterfront Boat Company seemingly offers about four to five cruises throughout the entire day, my showing up and requesting to go on the sunset cruise without pre-booking arrangements was more than welcome and there were about eight other people going on the same cruise. This was one …
Ha Long Bay cruise Hanoi Vietnam
It took a fair long time to get to Ha Long Bay from the large Vietnamese City of Hanoi, but it was worth it.
The Ha Long Bay is quite large, it is home to a lot of culture, it was interesting seeing people in boats fishing for their food …
SuperCat
SuperCats are by far the fastest ferries available for sea travel in the Philippines. From Batangas port, it takes less than 45 minutes to reach the nearest pier or island. It’s also safe. Although air travel is now cheaper, there are still those who opt to travel via sea …
Carnival Cruises
My family and I recently took a 4 night cruise that had two ports of call. Santa Catalina Island and then to Ensenada Mexico. We had a cabin towards the back of the boat (U231 in fact) Two levels up from the bottom. The most remember-able parts …
Norwegian Cruise Lines (NCL)
I’ve been fortunate to go on a few cruises now and have gotten the feel for what each Cruise Line does best, I’d like to discuss Norwegian Cruise Lines.
First off, when we booked the cruise the agent we spoke with via Norwegian promised us that because we would …
Super Star Virgo
When I booked Star Cruise’s Super Star Virgo for my family vacation, well, I was expecting luxury. But the moment we stepped on the huge ship (yes, it’s huge), we were bowled over by the sheer grandeur of the place!! The reception was terrific - belle dancers personally welcoming …
Disney Cruiselines
When we decided to celebrate my daughter’s birthday on a Disney Cruise ship, I cringed. The thought of 1000 children on a boat with a bunch of characters really did not appeal to me in the least. I dreaded our departure date and definitely can say I …
Regal Empress
Regal Empress is a cruise that I have been with my aunt and her family before. The price of this cruise was very expensive and I must say that it doesn’t match; value and money. Here is my review.
We went some time around June 2000 …
Disney Cruise Line
We’ve been on two cruises with the Disney Cruise Line, both on the Disney Wonder - 4 night cruises to the Bahamas. At the time of our cruises, our daughters were 6 and 1 (1st cruise) and 8 and 3 (2nd cruise). Both trips were amazing, with excellent service …
Disney Cruise
I was told by one tour guide in the ship that Disney Cruise first ship was actually called Disney Magic and was first available in the year of 1998. During the year 2000, my whole family had been on Disney Cruise and the cruise was recommended by my …
Celebration Carnival Cruiseline Ship
I have sailed with Carnival cruise lines many times. Of all the ships, I would recommend that no one sail on the ship called Celebration. I
originally decided to sail on this ship because it sails out of Jacksonville, FL and that was a closer port for me. Instead of …
Li River Cruise Guilin China
When I went to China, I saw many things, many famous places such as the Great Wall of China, the Teracotta Soldiers and the Forbidden City but I don’t think there was anything I thought was spectacular as the cruise down the Li River in Guilin.
We were on a …
Carnival Sensation
Last summer I took a cruise on the Carnival Sensation for 5 days to Cozumel, Mexico and the Cayman Islands. This was my first cruise and it was a great experience that left lasting momories. Right when I got on the ship I went to get some …
Corsica Ferries
I used this service a while back when travelling from Livorno, Italy to Ile Rousse, Corsica. This was a really lucky break as normally the ferries which leave from Italy usually only go to Bastia, which means you will then need to travel about 70 km to get to …
Irish Ferries Pembroke to Rosslare
Recently due to a family member being involved in an accident I had to organise a trip to Ireland at very short notice.
I needed to get from Pembroke in Wales across to Rosslare in Ireland before travelling on to my destination of Waterford.
I found the Irish Ferries.com site very …
Majesty of the Seas
My family and I enjoyed a four day cruise to the Bahamas on the Royal Caribbean Cruise Line ship Majesty of the Seas. Part family reunion, part birthday party for my ninety-year-old grandmother, this trip offered something for every generation.
The ship was a feast for the eyes for …
Princess Cruises: Crown Princess
Love Crown Princess! Crown Princess is a must for any family needing lots of child and teen activities. If you have kids like we do and want them to stay occupied 24/7, this is the cruise line. We are very big on family time, so any cruise we pick …
easyCruise
My boyfriend told me that easyCruise’s owner is related to the low-fare carrier, called easyJet. I wasn’t aware of that, and I asked my boyfriend where he knew about that and he said that some of his friends has tried boarding with easyCruise before and they knew that …
Alaska Marine Highway Ferry System
There are some parts of Alaska that you can only access by either the Alaskan Airlines or by the ferry system. And believe it or not Juneau, Alaska, the Alaska State Capital, is one of these places. I wanted to visit Juneau and after comparing prices of airline tickets …
Glass Bottomed Boat Madeira
We chose this trip to explore the East coast of the island, Madeira. It is a small company run by 2 people. We got a somewhat over keen sales pitch from the owner, david. While we were a little taken aback by his claim of guarrenteed sealife, we really …
Royal Caribbean Navigator of the Seas Cruise Ship
In January 2009, I took a trip with my whole family on Royal Caribbean’s Navigator of the Seas. It was a 5-night Western Caribbean cruise that stopped at ports of call like Ocho Rios, Jamaica and Georgetown, Grand Cayman Islands.
This ship was absolutely amazing. From the decor …
Loboc River Cruise
The Loboc River Cruise is one of the activities to look forward to for any tourist who visits the Bohol province in the Visayan Region of the Philippines. Most packaged tours to this laidback province include this cruising activity for lunch time. This is because the Loboc River Cruise …
Sarawak River Cruise
Twenty US dollars or 60 Malaysian ringgit (RM) is a good value for Sarawak river cruise in the city of Kuching. Moreover, it was written on a notice board at Kuching Waterfront river port that 10% discount would be given. However, the ticket officer does not give you the …
The Spirit of Philadelphia
Looking for a really cool gift for someone who you love and care about, but that is one of those people who are just famous for being difficult to shop for? Why not try taking them out on the Spirit of Philadelphia for a dinner or lunch cruise? …
Disney Cruise (Disney Wonder 4 Day Cruise)
Where do I start? Our cruise was a 4 day cruise to Nassau, Bahamas and Castaway Cay. The loading and unloading process was seamless. We flew into the Orlando Airport and there was a Disney bus there to pick us up. Disney sent color coded bag tags …

Windstar Wind Spirit
My family and I have been on a cruise called the Windstar Wind Spirit. It is a small, intimate and casual ship. My family prefer this so much since we have always wanted to go on a cruise ship that is smaller, has a more intimate cruise …
Carnival cruise
My husband and I took our family of five on a Carnival cruise last year becuase we thought it might be a fun atmosphere for our kids whose ages range from 9-14. We were excited to send our kids to the activities talked about in the advertisements on TV …
Norwegian Cruise Lines
My husband and I just got back from our honeymoon with Norwegian Cruise Lines (NCL). We vacationed aboard the new Norwegian Gem ship and absolutely loved it! As first time cruisers we were a little unsure as to what we should expect, but even before we stepped …
Bergen Line Nordkapp
Being on Bergen Line Nordkapp Cruise to me is truly wonderful. I love everything about the sceneries, the good food and everything else that the cruise has to offer. The only bad thing is the price tag, but then every good thing comes with a price, right?
Me …
Cruise West
Cruise West is a nice, small cruise line that I have been on and I couldn’t remember quite well the name of the ship; only remembering that it has a Nantucket name included. It is a nice boutique-style cruise with lots of nice breakfast set meals.
I …
Royal Cruise Lines
I have traveled on cruises through Royal in the past and have always been amply satisfied in the past. My husband and I are again planning to travel on Royal through a AAA planned destination to Bermuda in the next two years, and are readily looking forward to …
Steamboat Natchez cruise New Orleans
A trip to the French Quarter in New Orleans isn’t complete without a dinner cruise aboard the Steamboat Natchez.
We went on the dinner jazz and dance cruise in may, 2005, and it was a highlight of our trip to New Orleans. The steamboat docks on the Mississippi River near …
Holland America Cruises
The entire time I was on a Holland America ship, I was treated well by people who were genuinely happy to see me. The soap dish in my bathroom was wiped clean whenever I left the cabin. The room steward was always smiling, even when it was clear that …
Norwegian Cruise Lines
We took an Alaskan cruise aboard the “Norwegian Wind” - it was amazing! It was my first cruise, so I guess I really don’t have anything else to compare it to - but I really couldn’t find many faults with it at all.
We boarded in Vancouver and as we …
Cruise Liner
For the last few years ever since we retired from active work, my husband and myself, with some very dear friends have been travelling to various parts of the world.
We have been on two cruises, both with the Royal Caribbean Lines. Once we went from Vancouver for a six …

So, you have relented and decided to take the kids on a Disney Cruise. While you are looking forward to some time away from work and a break from the old regimine and routine, you really aren’t thinking there is going to be a whole heck of a …
Cruising with Princess Cruise Lines
My husband and I ventured on our very first cruise in November 2007 aboard Princess Cruise Lines. Having never cruised before we were looking forward to being pampered. And pampered we were!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time on the massive ship and the upgrade to a mini-suite was …
Chao Phraya Princess Dinner Cruise
Whenever I travel to a city which offers a river cruise, I always make it a point to try to fit it into my itinerary as it always relaxes me and offers a different vantage point to see the city. I love the feel of the wind while …
Golden Princess Cruise
Golden Princess is a cruise that my aunt’s family and mine had been on board on and we were especially pleased with this cruise line and also for the fact that the ship was so comfortable and had lots of activities going on. As for the sceneries, there …
Celebrity Galaxy
If you have the time and money, do check out Celebrity Galaxy. This cruise has no cons at all in my opinion, and it is difficult to spot any mishaps or any discomforts on board this ship.
Now, for this trip, I forked out my own savings and went …
Carnival Triumph
A couple of years back, my aunt, her husband, me and my best friend went to San Juan, Puerto Rico. We took a cruise to get there and the name of the cruise ship is Carnival Triumph. The name sounds very hip and happening. So is …

Tauck Cruise on the Rhine and Danube
This river cruise is absolutely fantastic. We boarded a five star river boat in Amsterdam, Netherlands and spent fifteen days sailing along the Rhine, Meine, and Danube rivers until we disembarked in Budapest. Along the way, we were offered a wide variety of shore excursions, including castle …
Carnival Cruise Lines
For years, I have taken cruises on Carnival Cruise Line. The ships are spacious, clean, comfortable, and the staff is always friendly. I like the fact that when you travel with Carnival, they have travel representatives that you can book your cruise through.
I have booked cruises with both personal …
MSC Cruise Orchestra - April 2009 Cruise
I had an opportunity to take a Caribbean Cruise on the MSC Orchestra in April. I have been on several cruises, with and without children so my vantage point is from that of an experienced (though) infrequent cruiser. I did take this cruise with my children, in …
