Dining

With 11 bars and lounges to explore, topped with 12 restaurants to dine in, Norwegian Gem excels itself in offering all the drinking and eating options you could wish for.

If you fancy some light Tapas dishes to share with a group, head to the Tequila Latin restaurant. If you're more in the mood for a great American steak, Cagney's Steakhouse will curb your hunger perfectly in a brilliant 1930’s-style dining venue.

Then you'll do well to find yourself in the Maltings Beer & Whiskey Bar where you can really let the flavours swirl in this relaxing and cosy atmosphere. Everything from cocktails to coffee and fine wines are all taken care of too, adding to the stream of choice on offer during your cruise.

Family

Norwegian Gem also remains a brilliant choice for family cruises, with excellent facilities and activities to please guests of every age. If you want to spend time together as a family, try your hand at some putting practice at the golf driving nets or see who can reach the highest point on the climbing wall. Alternatively, the mix of retro and modern games at the video arcade is bound to be a crowd pleaser.

There are also a range of kids clubs on the ship, with dedicated spaces providing the chance for younger cruisers to learn, play and make new friends.

Things to do

Spa and Fitness

The leisure and entertainment onboard excels in every way on NCL Gem. The jogging track lets you fit in your morning run with ease whilst offering you gorgeous views of the ocean. The outdoor courts allow for a spot of tennis, volleyball or basketball for even more of a sports kick. If you’d like a more thorough workout, the fitness centre is perfect for you. With everything from free weights to exercise machines and group classes, all you need to work up a sweat is right there.

However, heavy exercise isn’t everyone’s idea of a holiday. If this sounds like you, check out the onboard spa and beauty salon where you can expect an extensive menu of treatments, expertly carried out by experienced professionals.

Recreation

With two pools and six hot tubs, the pool deck on Norwegian Gem is always a hit. Whether you like lounging in the sun or doing lengths of the pool, you’re guaranteed to be in amongst the hustle and bustle of cruise ship life in this area. However, if you’re looking for a quieter afternoon, the library, card room and art gallery are all peaceful spaces available for guests enjoyment. While you’re inside, head to the shops and have a browse to see if there are any duty-free treats that take your fancy as a holiday memento.
