Guest's review of Norwegian Cruise Line, Norwegian Jade

“Excursion over priced information given for being able...”

★★☆☆☆

written by on 28/11/2010

Excursion over priced information given for being able to do your own thing was very poor indeed, and we were warned constantly about missing the ship or being late back because of local transport which we found very good, and the only people that were late back were your own excurions.

Drinks were overprice which lead to people sitting in there cabins drinking there own if they were not as pricey people would enjoy more of the hospitality and drink more in your bars Overall experience as compare with other cruise lines very poor and would be very unlikely to recommend to friends and family.

I found this review very helpful because...I have experienced similar problems on other cruise lines and quite frankly, this is a typical example of the company taking from the passengers as much as possible with their high priced drinks, excursions and restaurants.
<br/>They do tend to scaremonger in regard to people making there own transport arrangments in order to force their excursions on the more insecure and vulnerable. I hope they realise, we DO have a choice of cruise line and bad reviews are not good for business.
<br/>Thanks for the review. Forwarned is forarmed.

this is why you need to do your own research before you go. As for overpriced drinks, it is mostly taxes and not something NCL can do that much about. Lighten up! When you pay for a cheap room you get what you pay for. Adding in your budget for drinks and shore excursions is part of going on a modest cruise line. If you want all the bells and whistles of a luxury line you'll pay for it in the initial cost--maybe then you won't complain so much.

I did not think it was possible to drink your own drink in the cabins. I thought that any drink was taken from you on boarding and that any drink purchased offshore was delivered to your ship and given back to you at the end of the holiday. Can anyone confirm this is the case, it would be a nice surprise if we could drink our own drink in the cabin!
