Dover Norwegian Gem Cruise Reviews

what a disaster! Expected our first cruise to be magical and how wrong we were! The food was the same in most of the 'free' resturants, the paying ones were too expensive. We spent most of the time in the Garden cafe but this was horrendous at breakfast time as there were not enough seats for everyone. Breakfast was late delivered to the room on shore days and half the order missing. drinks ...

Norwegian Gem Inaugural Cruise Views of the newbies We decided on the Norwegian Gem Inaugural Cruise when it became difficult to fly long haul and thus got our first sight of the ship on the coach from London to Dover.

The next day we took the Hotel Hoppa back to Heathrow and picked up the NCL coach to Dover. Check-in had an ...

I had wanted to visit Europe for a long time and I figured a cruise would be a great way to get a sampling of a lot of different countries. I'm 27 and traveled with a friend who is 33. Since we were leaving from Dover and I have always wanted to see London we spent 3 days in London before the cruise. We flew direct from Houston on Continental.
