Norwegian Cruise Reviews (2024 UPDATED): Ratings of Norwegian Cruise Line (2024)

3.6

This ship would be better called Epic disaster. This is my first cruise and will definitely be my last. The ship is massively overcrowded, food quality is poor quality, limited choice and pretty tasteless. Excursions get cancelled at short notice with little explanation and no apology. Our day trip to Santarini was a disaster with 5 large cruise ships trying to tender far too many people onto the

This was our first NCL cruise and will be our last. This ship is completely disorganized. It took over an hour every time we had to get on or off the ship. The ship was late arriving in every port. We were left with less than 3 hours for attractions in Halifax. Extremely disappointing. If you want casinos, restaurants and to never get off the ship, this is a perfect ship. Otherwise,

Alaska was breathtakingly beautiful, with scenery that was truly unmatched. However, the ship was average at best; while the room was comfortable, the overall experience was mixed. Some staff were exceptional, but many were far from it. The upgraded dining package wasn’t worth the cost, with food and service that fell short of expectations. Everything on board felt like a money grab, reminiscent

The good: some of the food, some of the staff, the musical (Jersey Boys), some of the music.The bad: (1) No cream for coffee the last few days - just packets, so you'll pay $1000+ per day for a fast food coffee experience.(2) About half the food was inedible - we felt terrible for the waste, but some dishes were still frozen in the middle; most pastries were hard and dense (apparently

I would not book any excursions through Norwegian. I booked the Belmont Hills golf excursion in Bermuda and thought club rental was included, (was not). Norwegian charged $10 more than the golf course actually charges if booked directly through them and that'sNorwegian gave a so cslled "$50" discount. when I went to inform Norwegian about my dissatisfaction, they were not empathetic or one bit

We honestly cannot believe the negative reviews and you should not either …. We are on board as I type this and my god this cruise ship is stunning! The cabins (balcony) are so spacious and beautifully designed…. Airy and bright with loads of storage. The bathrooms are huge by cruising standards. There is beautiful seating everywhere on the ship …. Stunning textiles and textures… eye candy

We took the Norwegian Star in 2016 and we fell in love with NCL so when we decided to go cruising again it's was a no brainer going with NCL but our expectations were no meet this time. First, the food of the buffet was bland and with very few options (in the NCL Star the buffet was one of the stronger points having one theme buffet each day). At leats in 3 oportunities we find adults using the

Absolutely love Norwegian Cruise Line as a whole but the Sky just isn’t it and does not accurately reflect the quality of the rest of the fleet. As one of NCL’s oldest ships, it may be time to put her out to pasture. There are very few activities to do onboard, which makes at sea days drag on and on. There is a small adult’s side of the main pool but it’s over 7ft deep so you always have to hold

We sailed from Trieste to Athens in mid-August aboard the Pearl. We were the first two passengers on and were in a Penthouse Suite. It's twice the size of a balcony cabin and has two bathrooms. Worth every penny! Our butler, Preejesh was awesome. So friendly, attentive and professional. Same can be said for Concierge Roland and room steward, Jai. In fact, we had great service from everyone on the

Adventure awaits! They weren’t kidding. Just about every minute of our trip had some sort of activity one way or another. Comedy, musicals, painting, shopping, mimosa tastings. First off, giant round of applause to Beau! Aside from the glaciers, he was the absolute highlight of our trip! He had my 70 year old mother cracking up and dancing her buns off every night. All of the staff were
