Diamond Princess Reviews

This was our second ocean cruise, our first with Cunard (NZ) and this cruise with Princess in Japan. The service, meals, embarking and disembarking processes were very good and the journey itself very relaxing. You can do as much or as little as you like and the scenery was excellent. The cost of organised excursions was a bit expensive and because read more you dock quite some distance from the commercial centres of most towns meant a bus trip and waiting in long queues. When returning to the ship again the queues were long. We have done several river cruises and found them much easier especially as we get older. The booking process with Global Journeys through Hannah was exceptional and all questions and issues were addressed promptly. I would highly recommend Global Journeys.

One of our bucket list items was to see Cherry Blossoms in Japan. This cruise was perfect for this. Although we were a bit early in the season we went to some amazing places. The food in Diamond Princess was awesome and with plenty of options to choose from. Japanese people and culture are so warm and welcoming.

Unforgettable! Halong Bay is a marvel of the nature. Must seen in the life time. Vietnam is vibrant, growing, friendly and brave country. Shore excursions are very well organized, interesting and full of fun. The cruise itself demonstrates extremely good logistics. Crew is helpful and kniwlegible. Captain is smazing: one serious storm was handled with read more extreme cold blood. The ship was stable and reliable. Looking forward for the next cruise this year! My agent Kaitlyn is always available and helpful. I'm glad I found her. Now I am her client for further cruises!

We really enjoyed it thank you again to our travel agent Ethan who was very helpful. We are looking to go Italy and Greece this May or June in a new ship. The staff on the trip we just went on weresuper nice and friendly - we loved it a whole bunch.

We enjoyed our cruise although we do prefer the Princess Royal class of cruise ship, as the Diamond Princess doesn’t have a large Piazza with cafe, no concierge lounge and not quite as many facilities. November was a great time of year to see the Autumn colour, Mt Fuji with snow on the top, plus the weather was perfect and we didn’t have any rain. The read more shore excursions were good, but very expensive. Once again a big thank you to Hannah C for organising everything and we highly recommend Global Journeys for a great booking experience.

I’d like to thank Hannah from Global Journeys for her help and for answering all my questions so promptly. It was very reassuring having her to help us on our journey. The 9 Day Japan cruise on Diamond Princess was amazing from start to end. The onboard entertainment was incredible and the staff so welcoming and friendly. The variety of food was excellent. read more We had a wonderful time.

The trip was well planned and was at a great price. We managed to see some amazing sites The princess cruise was exceptional.

Had a great time travelling with Princess, it was our first cruise and for our Honeymoon and was overall a great experience. Luckily we also had amazing weather. Given how great this cruise was we will be booking another cruise in the very near future!

Global Journeys were very helpful. Most ports were enjoyable visiting with Dunedin being a very pleasant surprise. Very disappointed missing the Milford Sound because of a threatened storm in the Tasman Sea.

The cruise itself was great and the reserve dining was fantastic. Great food and great service. Only downside was the chaos of boarding the ship in Singapore. This was a surprise because normally Singapore is a pretty efficient place but boarding was a total mess. Took hours and the system was a shambles. No priority boarding for suite holders and even read more luggage drop off took almost an hour which was madness. Once onboard all was fine.
