Disappointment

Review for a Arctic Cruise on Scenic Eclipse

The service, food, cabins were all great. Totally disappointed in communication. Never received the next days schedule until 8-9 the night before. Even the next morning crew were not versed as to what the schedule would be. Totally unacceptable was our return flights. 1 1/2 days before departure we were told that our ship would dock at 9:00 and couldn't leave the ship until at least 9:30. We ...

My voyage aboard the Scenic Eclipse was nothing short of extraordinary. Embarking on the Circle Svalbard cruise, which covered the entire Spitzbergen Archipelago, surpassed my high expectations and even exceeded the memorable Charcot North Pole expedition I embarked upon the previous year. These two vessels, Scenic Eclipse and Charcot, now hold a special place in my heart. The suites on Scenic ...

We chose to cruise on Scenic Eclipse for the adventure it promised. However, we received much more than we expected as the yacht provided pure luxury in the remote places we visited. The owners, management and staff are to be congratulated on achieving the ultimate in global luxury yacht cruising. The best service we have ever experienced , coupled with the most friendly and efficient crew, ...

After initial difficulties over travel arrangements, not Scenic's fault but not well handled, we arrived on board with some anxieties. Delighted to say all concerns were dispelled by a fantastic experience from beginning to end. Staff at every level, (cabin, restaurants, bars, excursion team) went above and beyond to meet guests' desires including a special menu arranged in Koko restaurant after a ...

We went on the cruise before the one in the drop down box so it was Norwegian fjords and then a week in Svalbad. Norwegian fjords were lovely and we had a great helicopter flight over Geiranger fjord. The submarine was an experience but nothing to see in pretty murky fjord water - waste of money really. Off ship excursions hit and miss - few good others absolutely rubbish. The arctic cruising ...

Lovely arctic weather and a helpful expedition staff made this trip to Svalbard, Greenland and Iceland truly exceptional. We were very excited by our two polar bear experiences. We saw a mother bear supervising her two cubs fishing! This is apparently an unusual polar bear activity. We also saw a mother bear protecting her cub from a male polar bear. Murdering the young is apparently a common ...

I note there are very few reviews of the Arctic cruises and can't see any of this ship for this itinerary here so hope this might be helpful to someone: We spent 7 nights on the MS Expedition (G adventures ship) and one night in Longyearbyen - all booked through Explore. The ship: We loved the Expedition, it was comfortable with loads of communal space (bar, library, lounge, big observation ...
