Oceania Sirena Reviews

Oceania was absolutely amazing. The food, the employees and cabins were fantastic. A lot better than we ever imagined. Also, the entertainment was top notch. I guess the only negative thing was the size of the showers. Ethan was fantastic. He answered all our questions promptly.

The initial booking was made on board the same Oceania ship last year. Then we handed the rest to Hannah of Global Journeys. She always does a great job. This cruise sailed to ports in 12 countries. The time in ports were long enough for sightseeing. For most ports there was a shuttle service to near the city visited. It is difficult to choose read more one highlight. We were very impressed with the newish central library in Helsinki which provides not only food for the mind but for the body too. There are restaurant and cafes inside the library. You can prepare food for yourself in the kitchen if you so prefer. You can use the sewing machine to shorten your trousers or borrow an electric guitar to practice your gig there. The library was so well patronised. Some places we liked include the Sculpture Park in Oslo, a canal cruise in Copenhagen, and our own bus trip from Dover to visit the Canterbury Cathedral in the UK, and our train trip to Lubeck from Travermunde.

We had an amazing 3 weeks away cruising the med with Oceania cruises on one of their smaller ships the Sirena. Georgie from Global Journeys organized our flights and cruise and was super helpful giving lots of info and options and answering all my questions, there were many as we had never cruised before. Our cabin was in a great position, the views read more were spectacular and was amazing waking up in a new location every day. We got to see so many places and everything went very smoothly with the whole trip from start to finish.

This was a 24 days cruise from Portsmouth, UK to Barcelona, Spain, travelling through western coastal France, top of Spain, Portugal, Canary Islands, Morocco. As always the cuisine was superb, the service was great. Many of the crew were new, they were most pleasant and tried very hard, but much more for them to learn. Many fellow cruisers agreed that read more after COVID the standard in Oceania has dropped. This is a coast saving strategy, we suppose. Fellow cruisers are experienced travellers, very friendly group, almost all are over 65. My photo was taken in Madeira, an island off the coast of Africa.
