Customer reviews for Marella Cruises
We haven’t done a re-positioning cruise before, but this cruise docked at places we haven’t been to before… it was nice to have a good rest on the sea days, except when we had to “batten down the hatches” due to bad weather… If I’m truthful we won’t do another re-positioning cruise… having said that, we will be doing more cruises. FYI… we have cruised for 27 years and always used Planet Cruise… never had any problems and would always recommend using Planet Cruise. Thank you for always looking after us. 🚢💕🚢💕🚢
Just back from Asia Explorer Cruise on Tui Marella Discovery 2. From start to finish this has been the best experience ever. Our booking agent was Derek. Derek is kind, thoughtful and considerate and absolutely goes above and beyond to ensure we got the cruise we wanted. He called to update me outside his working hours and gave us wonderful advice about the ship and some excursions. Our flight times were so convenient, the connections were smooth and boarding the ship, after a long flight was without fault. The staff on board are polite, keen to chat and offer impeccable service. Everyday was magical and we saw so many incredible places, my 81 year old Dad, my travelling companion and I would have happily stayed on and done it all again. I can’t recommend this one enough.
Fantastic cruise great itinerary, ship clean, food excellent, crew friendly and helpful, housekeeping staff amazing. Highly recommend this cruise with Marella.
Overall a very enjoyable cruise. Staff were very responsive, positively, to any requests or problems. Would certainly use Marella again. Ship was clean, restaurants and food choices good. My only criticism is currency exchange rates were not good value.
