Iglu Cruise customer reviews for Explorer of the Seas
Fantastic cruise, staff were so lovely and helpful to ensure we had a brilliant holiday. There was a great variety of bars and restaurants, along with entertainment
Thank you Iglu for organizing the pre and post cruise stays. Everything excellent and the Royal Caribbean Cruise amazing.
The food was generally good both in the dining room and windjammer. Unfortunately ports are quite away from places we wanted to visit although Rome was well worth the trip. We found using taxis in Nice was a lot cheaper than the shops excursion. We liked the shows in the promenade. Staff are very friendly and helpful
Love Royal Caribbean! Food was good as was the service. Itinerary great too. Entertainment very good.
