Thinking of a 1 week cruise, either round the Med or (more likely) Scandinavia in September. Can anyone offer any advice re ships, lines, do's & don'ts ?
royal Caribbean end of.
Another endorsement for Royal Caribbean here - been on two of their ships, both excellent. Independence of the Seas is a truly stunning vessel.
I've been on two with Royal Caribbean. One in the med and one in the Caribbean.
Both were terrible , I absolutely hated it on both occasions.
Too many people
Not enough time in port
Staff must have been trained by Tescos, crap service ( and the expect tips at the end of the trip )
Just found myself eating or working out in the gym ( where 30% of equipment was broken or out of services )
The fact I'm 35 may have something to do with me not liking it 🙂
Do you like a drink when your on holiday?
If so you might find the P&O Cruises deals the best, the drinks were basically the same as UK pub prices, that was 7 yrs ago when I worked for them mind!
May sound a bit strange but $5 or $6 a bottle can get a bit tiresome!
All the cruise lines cater for different markets and within fleets they have ships for different types of passengers. Do a bit of research before booking.
I can recommend Norwegian cruising if you like dramatic scenery and something a bit different from the Med.
Hampstead Heath?
winston_dog - i used to work for them around 7 years ago too :]
