AJ’s Sloth and Monkey sanctuary. We booked this on our own in advance. Shore excursions to these places were longer and more costly. We got transportation and the animal experience for $35 pp. Lots of fun and guide was great.

Excellent way to get from Europe to Florida for not much more than the cost of an airfare! Free Drinks package & 6 upgrade restaurants inc in our deal made it a no -brainer. All staff were great, cabin small but well kept. All in all the food was mainly good - but not great, (except Le Bistro & Teppanyaki) The complimentary Chinese was pretty dire, the sweet n sour was unlke any ever ...

This cruise was fantastic. One of the best. Fellow passengers were very friendly. Enjoyed talking to them. Food was very good. Activities on the boat was good for my husband to stay active. 14 days was home for us. The Spanish country was clean and nice. Missed out on Bermuda. Weather was bad. I guess we have to book another cruise. Haha. Activities staff always kept us entertained. Saw a few ...

The Jade and its moderate size was perfect for the ocean crossing. Embarkation on Barcelona was smooth but with long lines, taking almost an hour. The ship itself has a good flow plan and offers good food in all its restaurants, especially the specialty ones. We enjoyed the Bistro and Cagneys although we tried the others too. The staff is attentive throughout the ship. Our balcony cabin on ...

Just returned - 13 November 2016 from a 14 night transatlantic cruise on the Norwegian Jade, our cruise commenced in Barcelona, then cruised on to Cartagena, Malaga, Funchal, Bermuda, Miami and finally disembarking in Tampa USA. Our cabins were on deck 10 and although they were slightly smaller than we’ve previously experienced they were more than sufficient to meet our needs, they have ...

This was our 8th cruise in 6 years all with NCL, most out of NYC, where we live. We had always wanted to make a transatlantic crossing and to visit Barcelona. We arrived a few days early to spend some time in the city, which exceeded our expectations. The cruise itinerary was Cartagena (Spain), Malaga (Spain), Funchal (Madeiras), Bermuda and Miami, ending in Tampa. This was our fist ...

This was my first NCL cruise and not sure of what to expect. The ship was very dated and is going in for a refurb in March so that is a good thing because I am booked on it again in September 2017. Embarkation was good, Disembarkation a nightmare. Ship size for me is perfect. I am more comfortable on a smaller ship. Staff: Cabin attendants very pleasant. Bar staff were very rude and ...

We choose this cruise for the great price and the ports of call. The Jade was ok but due for much needed updating. Our cabin 11593 was extremely small even for an inside cabin. We had the special dining package. Cagney's Steakhouse was great both times. I would avoid the Bistro and Italian restaurant if we did it again, they were just ok. The hibachi and Brazilian steakhouse were both tasty and ...

Transatlantic Back to Back on the Jade 2016

Just got back from a wonderful time on the Jade. We did a back-to-back starting with a 7-day cruise from Venice to Barcelona. That was followed by a 14-day transatlantic from Barcelona to Tampa. In 2013 our NCL Mediterranean cruise left a lot to be desired. Perhaps because my expectation level was low, I was blown away by how enjoyable this trip was. The first 7-day cruise was excellent. ...

This was my wife and my first cruise and we are both 66 years old. Booked through a travel agent with a balcony stateroom. We have nothing to compare with so not sure how this compares with other cruises. The cruise was great! The ship was great! the staff was great! For a first cruise we were overall very happy. The things I didn't like are the following: We booked early and got 1 free ...
