Excellent, really enjoyed ourselves definitely to be recommended. Plenty of good food with choice of dining areas. Cream tea every day. You need to walk the deck, 5 times deck is a mile.

Entertainment superb! Everything Mr A Williams said w... read more

Having been independent travellers for 25 years it was a bit of a shock being "organised" but it didn't upset us it was just different to what we were used to.

So - let's get over the bad bits:

Our very first cruise - please ... read more

If you had never been on a cruise before you might have been impressed. The ports of call were great - Faroes, Reykjavik, Isafjord, Akureyri, Flam, Bergen. Tours were good, but organisation frequently a bit scrappy - poor information.

What a fabulous cruise, everything was wonderful, food, entertainment, room and staff.

Special mention to: Marvyn, Warren, Vasko and Lyndon who made our trip extra special, we hope to see them all again soon.

Our Fire and Ice itinerary took us to the Faroe Islands, Iceland, and Norway.

Weather was fine considering the area we went to with one rough day at sea.

Good points:

This was our 5th Thomson cruise in the last 4 years so we are fans. We have sailed previously, twice on the Celebration, once on Destiny and once before on the Spirit.

We = me, wife and 4 kids aged 11-16. The last time we were on the Spirit ... read more

Just back from our 7th Cruise. Baltic Capital cruise. The weather was very poor throughout. Ports in the main good but not many capitals.

Food excellent, surprised to find Richard Sykes has parted company with Thomson.

All in all, rather disappointing. We had booked this holiday 12 months in advance in order to get a good cabin. In that we were not disappointed, Deck 9, deluxe, with bath and it had plenty of room.

However, for the extra charge, in future, ... read more

Just returned from Norway, North Cape Explorer.

The good stuff: Excellent staff, maids, waiters etc. They worked tremendously hard with great good humour. Good size cabins kept clean by great maid service.

Plenty of deck space. N... read more

This was our third cruise and we had a fantastic time, the ports were all fantastic, the weather at sea was not so good, very choppy but we were on the free upgrade to all inclusive so after a few drinks we couldn't feel anything.

Overall a very good cruise. When we got on to the Spirit after queuing for an hour to register, we were a little disappointed in the standard of decor, carpets etc.

Although spotlessly clean, the ship looks a little tired. In Thomson's favou... read more

Having been on cruises before we were recommended to try Thomson. Great recommendation!

The food in the Compass Rose restaurant would not have been out of place in a top establishment ashore. Unlike the US cruise ships, there was only one re... read more

We (4 adults) have just come back off a 2 week cruise around the med on this fantastic ship. This is our 3rd year on this ship and it is still as good as it was the first year.

The staff are so friendly and the service is second to none. The ... read more

My husband and I came back from a week's holiday on the Thomson Spirit yesterday.

Although we had a couple of night’s really bad weather - drawers opening etc. - we still had a fantastic time.

Fourth time on the Spirit now. Food still as good as ever, staff as everyone says can’t do enough for you 24 hrs a day. Cabins always clean and tidy.

Better for non smokers now as only half the Lido deck and approx a third of High Spirits bar... read more
