Holland America Line offers excellent food, a great itinerary including South America and Antarctica, and attentive service. Each room is equipped with an umbrella and a tote bag. The ferry service is smooth, with passengers boarding and disembarking in the order assigned by their assigned numbers.

The service was excellent, with room cleaning twice daily. Boarding and disembarking were well-organized. Meals were primarily Western cuisine, with options for a buffet or à la carte dining. The buffet was open from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. The in-room TV entertainment system had several news channels and movies. Overall, I was satisfied.

My 10-day, 9-night Caribbean cruise on the Queen Elizabeth has come to an end, but I still feel like it's not enough. The service and food were superb, the accommodations were excellent and comfortable, the activities were plentiful, and the scenery of the countries we visited each day was stunning. It was a fantastic experience, and I'm so happy! 🥳

Overall, my 7-night experience on the Sun Princess was worthwhile. This trip was for our family of three, including our almost 4-year-old. We boarded in Athens and disembarked in Barcelona. The Sun Princess is a relatively new ship, and my first impression was that it was large, beautiful, and modern. The public areas were well-designed, especially The Dome, the atrium, and the top deck. On a nice day, it's very pleasant to look at the sea and enjoy the breeze. We stayed in a balcony cabin, which was spacious enough for two adults and one child, and the balcony was very practical. The room was cleaned daily, and the staff were generally very friendly. They readily provided any needed blankets or bathrobes. The bedding and room comfort were also good. There were many dining options. The Eatery buffet was the most convenient, especially with a child, as it easily accommodated breakfast and lunch. The main restaurant had a better ambiance and a more formal feel, and the menu changed daily. However, the taste was generally mixed – some dishes were delicious, while others were just average. Don't expect a five-star hotel restaurant; you'll likely find it quite pleasant. The complimentary food on board is more than enough; unless you're specifically looking for something special, there's no need to spend a lot of extra money. The entertainment facilities are a major highlight of this ship. The Dome is a great place to swim and relax during the day, and transforms into a performance venue at night; with theaters, live music, and various activities, there's something to do almost every day. There's also a children's activity area, so families won't be bored. However, it's advisable to arrive early for some popular shows, as seats can get quite crowded. The biggest advantage of this cruise is the "sleep and change cities" experience. Traveling through Santorini, Corfu, and Messina, you don't have to constantly pack and change hotels, which is really friendly to families with children. Disembark during the day to explore, return for dinner, shower, and sleep in the evening, and then head to a new place the next day – this kind of travel is quite relaxing. Of course, there are some drawbacks. The ship is really huge, and you might feel a little disoriented for the first couple of days, especially since different elevators lead to different areas, so it takes some getting used to. The buffet restaurant, elevators, and disembarkation areas can be quite crowded when it's busy. While the internet on the cruise ship is usable, its stability is definitely not comparable to that on land. Additionally, first-time cruise passengers should clarify the disembarkation, passport collection, and transfer procedures beforehand to avoid confusion. Overall, if you're traveling with children, elderly relatives, or don't want to drag your luggage between hotels every day, the Sun Princess is a very comfortable travel option. It's not the kind of cruise where every meal or activity is amazing, but it excels in its newness, comprehensive facilities, excellent itineraries, and overall relaxed experience.

There was only one problem: the house wasn't cleaned the next day, supposedly because someone had activated the "Do Not Disturb" switch. Actually, anyone could operate the switch from outside the door, but the consequences would be unpleasant; this is a design flaw in the cruise ship's system. Our group of four was the only ones with an extra 150 minutes of free Wi-Fi per cabin, probably a discount we received when we registered with NCL for our Caribbean cruise earlier this year. Special praise to our Ctrip tour leader, Wang, for his excellent work!

We've been on a cruise twice already, and this was the longest one yet. The 18-day experience of crossing the North Pacific and the Tropic of Cancer was unforgettable. The service on board was excellent, and the food selection was plentiful. It was great value for money. Talking with some Chinese people in North America, we learned that the price we paid for a balcony cabin on Ctrip only got them ocean view cabins. This proves that with more Chinese tourists, the market has opened up. Crucially, we were able to adjust to the time difference right on the ship after returning from North America.
