Corfu to Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

Passing our local TUI travel agency we noticed a "Manager's special" for this cruise and enquired within. The dates coincided perfectly with the half term school holiday, an inset day, and our daughter's leave week. In addition the second day of the cruise was our granddaughter's birthday and this would be her first flight on an airplane though not her first cruise. The price offered made it a no ...

I booked this cruise with TUI after having had several great family cruises before! However what a disappointment this one was!!!. Took my best friend for her first cruise to impress her and I wad left embarrassed. Standards have dropped. Though thankfully Staff are still amazing and the entertainment was exceptional. However, the standards of the ship was a big let down. Though more ...

We chose to take our first cruise with Marella after having it recommended by my sister and we were not disappointed! We chose the Ionian trip, for seven days . We sailed on the Explorer which was a beautiful ship aimed at giving its passengers the best experience ! the staff are amazing people, multi national and always smiling! The restaurants were all well organised, Latitude 53 have the ...

Our problems with Marella Cruises started just after booking: we didn't realise that when we booked through the cruise hotline we were automatically diverted to a store location (which was nowhere near us). Not only were the staff at Stockport ill-trained, but their computer system didn't even link up with the Cruise dept. I later had to give up adding an additional week hotel reservation because ...

Why this Cruise? - Timing - We organised this trip to coincide with half term as one of our party is still of school age. The dates were correct for us and the relatively short haul flight to join the ship in Corfu made it viable. The Ship - I am not complete convert to cruising, having only taken three cruises previously over a 30 year period. In that time the World of cruising has changed ...

I’d never been on a sea cruise before but my partner had and recommended Tui. Overall the cruise was good, value for money definitely (compared to other cruise lines). Could be a bit Butlinsy but we decided we’d do our own thing and make it work for us, which I feel is a plus that we could do that. the islands buffet restaurant was pretty dire (noisy, chaotic and unpleasant food) so after one ...

Room and facilities I had an outside cabin on deck 2 - 2026 There is much more storage everywhere - the wardrobe is a much better use of space on Marella as you have the big waste of space on most P&O ships. It is a Slightly smaller cabin but is suitable. The Shower was good with good pressure. There was a Sofa in the room. I do Wish I’d got a balcony now as I’m used to them but it was ...

Firstly a fantastic cruise had by all this is our 4th cruise with Thompson/ Marella in two years and the second time on this ship we where with two other couples for my 50th birthday we stayed in cabins 7537. 7543.and 2581 cabin where all inside cabins they where spacious and keep very clean with a new towel display every evening.on arrival we got our room cards at the terminal then we where left ...

I chose this cruise for several reasons. 1. Itinerary, following the Adriatic coast I felt it would be more likely to be a smooth sail and the sea would be calm. ( I am not a good sailor). 2. The stop ports were places I hadn't been to before. This was my first time on a cruise and I traveled as a single woman. I arrived after an early morning flight. The check in was easy, quick ...
