What is the best cruise you've ever been on on a big ship?

Question

on big ship or cruise line like royal caribbean, ncl, princess, carnival, or something like that...

what destination? line? and ship? what was the best part?

Answer 1

I have been on 10 cruises and they are the best.  I have been on Princess and Carnival and Royal Caribbean.  I really like Royal Caribbean, it was one of their smaller ship and everyone was really friendly and nice.  I am going on Carnival Conquest in about 6 weeks.  I am really excited about that one.  The Caribbean is great.  Costa Maya is really nice, it is really little, but you have the ocean and places to shop and eat.  Jamaica is really pretty, just be careful there.  Grand Cayman has the prettiest water I have ever seen.

Answer 2

norwegian dream progesso,cozumel,belize cave tubing in belize

Answer 3

My favorite was Carnival Valor. The places I went to on it were Nassau, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten. There is no best part everything is the best.

Answer 4

Honestly, I really cant say. Ive been on Carnival Fantasy (3-day Bahamas), Sensation (7-day Western Caribbean) & the Destiny (7-day southern caribbean).........OK wait, my favorite was the Destiny. The destinations were AWESOME - St. Thomas, Aruba, Martinique (left alot to be desired; they actually took this one off the itinerary) & Barbados. I thought I met my husband in St Thomas LOL. He was probably the most beautiful man Ive ever met....anyway, back to the point, lol. Its like every time you have something different to remember that cruise by, a different experience that stands out. That one was my favorite because of the ports-of-call but I enjoyed every one of them & look forward to more. I think my next one is going to be great because its more than likely gonna be with my boyfriend as opposed to family LOL. I love my family but......anyway, I think the best part of all the cruises is the FOOD! Its food everywhere! 24hr ice cream & pizza! Midnight buffets! Prepaid main dinner courses (which means you can order more than one entree`). I would highly suggest a cruise if you havent been on one. Now you got me daydreaming at work, LOL

Answer 5

My best cruise was on NCL's Norwegian Star to Alaska.  The best part for me was that Alaska was a mysterious.  I didn't read the itinerary before I got on so each day was a surprise and an adventure.  I would wake up and stand on deck above the bridge and try to guess which port we were sailing to.  The other best part was waking up and going to the Market Cafe for breakfast watching the scenery go by.

Answer 6

i'll say it was the last cruise i was on. it was on the Caribbean Princess. there was 17 of us in our group so we made our own fun, too. the 100 foot wide jumbo-tron screen on the pool deck was cool. they showed movies at night as well as Monday Night Football!!!

Answer 7

Answer 8

Holland America Line. 800-426-0327, www.hollandamerica.com. Great service, great food, safe place to be, great itinerary, bigger room than other cruise lines, great choice of shore excursions. Fantastic.  I tried Alaska, Coastal & Mexico and I can't stop !

I went on the Disney Wonder when I was 13 years old in 2006...it was the land and sea package....it was the end of august when we went so it was hurricane season....the ship is amazing...it was my 3rd cruise and so far, my favorite...there is so much to do for any age...people think that Disney is too babyish for teens but no way!!! it was so much fun....there are tons of great shows, amazing food...both kid friendly and grownup friendly...the cabins are bigger than a normal size of a cabin that u would find on another cruise....the staff are so helpful and friendly you feel like you have ur own personal butler....the pools are great...there are 3: kids with a water slide(mickey), family pool(goofy) and then an adult pool...the bars aren't expensive as you may think...and you get free icecream and drinks 24/7...about the shows....throughout ur cruise there will be a number of shows....after dinner each night, there will be a show in the theatre...one night they will have a show about one of the disney movies...the one that i saw was hercules...it was AMAZING! the show was like you were watching a broadway play...the music the cast everything was so real...you forget that u r on a ship....then they will have a comic and then maybe another performance for the night shows...as for the bars and lounges, there are also shows in them....one day there is a talent show, which is fun...there is usually a band that is onboard and they will perform every night....there is what's called late night fun which is like a club for teens....there is dancing and music and food...also on the ship is a midnight buffet, actually at 11, where you can get food, obviously....and there are some amazing ice scupltures...i strongly reccomend it....one night there is a small mexican buffet with excellent food, also reccomend it.....as for the staterooms, there is an animal made out of a towel every night along with chocolates on ur pillow....its amazing how they make the animals out of towels....if you ever see ur maid, i would ask them how they make the animals... thats what i did, and she showed me how to make a monkey..it was really cool!!! the rooms are always very clean and fresh....ok, now for nassau, i assume u mean the private island castaway cay....we never ended up going there...remember how i told u that it was hurricane season? well of course we got stuck it in....the hurricane was headed right for castaway cay, so we couldn't go there...instead we went to cosumel mexico...it was a lot of fun there!!! and the port that we were supposed to dock into was damaged by the hurricane, i think it was frances, we had to find another port to dock into...since the one that we were going to go to was full, we had to wait until there was room for us to dock....it was ft lauderdale....we had to wait 3 days at sea until the port had an empty spot for us....so we ended up getting 3 free days at sea, and $300 per cabin to spend onboard because they felt bad for us....so this was my absolute favorite cruise ever and i will never forget it....during spring break of last year, april 2007 i went on Celebrity Century and we went to Key West and the Cayman Islands...this ship was amazing, we left from miami, fl...during spring break of next year- March- April 2008 we are going on Royal Carribean's Explorer of the Seas...i have never been on rccl before, but im really excited...we're leaving from bayonne, nj...around an hour from where i live, and we're going to the virgin islands, haiti, and the domincan republic....hope this helps! = ]

Answer 12

Hi I have been on 20 cruise mostly with NCL & Princess & all but, 2 to Alaska. The best for me besides the scenery is no matter how times I go I really enjoy meeting new & interesting people from all over the world and learning about where they live etc. Yes, the wildlife & glaicers are amazing too but, the people hands down ( including the crew). I have been to Bermuda & Hawaii too. Bermuda you can get a better land package than cruise & Hawaii I was stationed there & the best part of that is an Island that is for service personell only. Hope this helps on your quest.

Answer 15

#1) Diamond Princess  30 days  Alaska, Russia, Korea, Japan.  Absolutely breath taking scenery in Alaska. Russia, Korea and Japan were unbelievable. The ship was less than 1 year old and it was the first time it had returned to Japan where is was built.  Fire-boats met us at the entry to the harbor and bands were at the pier. Great trip.

#2) Pacific Princess  30 days   South Africa, Madagascar, Tasmania, Australia .  Unique experience, nice ship though a huge one. We were upgraded to a 2 room owner's suite. Very nice and over 700 sq.ft.

Answer 16

I just returned from Disney Cruise Ship "Magic" in the Mediterranean.   This was a great cruise that visited Barcelona, Palermo Sicily, Naples/Pompei/Capri, Rome, Florence/Pisa, Sardinia, Marseille France, Monaco/Monte Carlo.

The cruise was extremely welll organized with great food, entertainment, shows, seminars/lectures, first Run movies if you wanted, ...as well as the overall atmosphere was exceptional.

We traveled as a couple and it was great.  The families on board had their own great activities as only Disney could perform.

Answer 20

The Achille Lauro, sailed from Cape Town to Italy in January1982. On the way the ship got impounded in

Tennerife(one of the Canary islands, owned by Spain)

Spent 4 days there and then flew to the UK. Any passenger ship is a great way to see the world and I would recommend

it  for sure. The food , entertainment and the people you

will meet will make it an unforgettable Holiday.

Answer 21

I have been on more than15 cruises on four different cruise lines, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, Princess and Norwegian. I cannot possibly list all of the ships and the best of each. I have 3 cruises book right now for later this year and next.

I have cruised to the eastern and western Caribbean multiple times, to the souther Caribbean twice, to the Panama canal, to Alaska, to the Mediterranean and to the Baltic countries.

My favorite cruise line is Royal Caribbean and my favorite ships are their Radiance class ships which include the Jewel of the Seas (been on that one), the Brilliance of the Seas (been on that one), the Radiance of the Seas (going on that one next yr) and Serenade of the Seas. I have been on RC's new mega ship the Freedom of the Seas and will go on the new NCL ship the Gem this year.

I really enjoyed most the cruise to the Mediterranean where I went to the Vatican City and also saw the Coliseum in Rome; the city of Pompeii in Naples; the leaning tower of Pisa; the Acropolis in Greece; and the biblical city of Ephesus in Turkey.  After that I liked best the Panama Canal cruise.
