Norwegian Gem is the ideal ship for families travelling with kids, providing plenty of activities for all ages, and a club for the young ones to chill out in.
Norwegian Gem boasts two pools and six hot tubs, allowing you to take laps up and down the pool or simply lounge by them, giving you all the space in the world. You are guaranteed to be at the central hot spot of fun for friends and family, or if you want, the ideal place to relax.
Dining aboard Norwegian Gem is a real treat with its impressive range of cuisine, with restaurants themed around the delicious dishes they serve up. A real fan favourite is Cagney’s Steakhouse, delivering you the great American steak in a 30s-style dining venue.
There’s a virtually never-ending list of things to do onboard Norwegian Gem, whether you’re the highly active type always looking for a new experience, or someone who loves to relax and enjoy some pampering.
You’ll find 11 bars and lounges to kick back in on Norwegian Gem. The Stardust Theatre is the main place to go for fantastic musical performances and variety acts as well as something going on each night in nearly every bar. Whether it’s live music, pub quizzes, or movie screenings, you're sure to have a blast!
Excellent service, friendly staff.
I thought the staff were friendly and helpful. I have travelled as a family before with another Cruise Liner on the cruise with the Norwegian Gem I was on my own. As a solo traveller I would have liked to have attended interesting talks given by people with expert knowledge in all manner of different subjects. Not only are you enjoying visiting different places but your mind is stimulated as well! What could be more luxurious than that!
Cabin a good size, but the bathroom was a bit on the small side - anybody over 6’ would have struggled to sit on the loo! Excellent food - really enjoyed the ‘Freestyle’ of dining - could not fault either the food or the service. Entertainment really isn’t our thing, but some of the singers were good. Excursions - only did one and whilst the content was good, it was not good value for money - par for course with cruise ship excursions. Itinerary - excellent! We enjoyed every port we visited and transitting the Panama Canal was amazing - highly recommended! All in all, an excellent trip which was definitely value for money.
Before I went on the ship I pre paid my gratuities which cost $210 for a couple only to find this was only half of the gratuities as they then charged us $15 each per day which totalled another $210 which I found was totally unacceptable but was assured this was correct by the ships team. If this had been explained to me I would never have gone on this cruise with Norwegian Cruise Line as I had twice cruised with them before and all gratuities where paid at source. The last time I will go with this company for sure.
