We were on Explorer jan 2023, not a good experience , first time with RSSC and last, cancelled our South Pacific cruise 2024 as to risky , lots of reasons for a bad review but Regent handled it badly and never got back to us so we have gone back to Seabourn which has been great for us

We were on Seabourn recently in the Caribbean , at the start of the voyage there were chair hogs and we couldn’t get a chair by the pool, I did complain and it was put in the daily news sheet not to reserve chairs, it got better and we were able to get seats, it was on the newssheet most days not to reserve seats We have sailed with RSSC once, they took no notice of the issues we had which were substantial so we cancelled our next cruise which we had booked with them as they just didn’t care , I have sent numerous feedback but with no replies so we won’t bother spending our money with them

January 2023 we were on Explorer, first time with Regent, they advertise it as the most luxurious ship etc, didn’t find this, to many niggles, we had booked Voyager to South Pacific in 2025, we have cancelled it, just got back from a Seabourn cruise on Ovation and we couldn’t fault it. Our Regent cruise had been our most expensive holiday , it was not worth it, memorable for all the wrong reasons

We were on this exact trip, but in January 2023, doesn’t look as though anything has changed, we complained about the whole cruise as most of it was not good, but this excursion was about a 1 star experience , I don’t think any Regent representative has ever been on it and why keep sending guests there is beyond me

We were on Explorer, Sydney to Bali and had a few terrible excursions, on complaining on our return to our TA, she told Regent of our poor experience , they said excursions were through their third party suppliers and there was nothing they could do!! I think this is outrageous as they should have been on these and if they had they would realise that some were a disaster, this isn’t what you expect from 6 star cruising in my opinion

Do not walk around Papua New Guinea on your own, it is very dangerous there, best not get off the ship

Hi, how long did it take to get your suitcase? Was it lost by the airline? We arrived in Sydney last night and our luggage is still in Heathrow !!

We have done an Amazon river cruise in Equador, not with Regent but on a small boat Anaconcda, we went in March, we wore hiking shoes and took rain ponchos , only rained once during the week but what a downpour !! didn’t get bitten , I took vitamin B1 2 weeks before you go and all the time you are away, this really works as I always used to get bitten, plus mosquito bands and bug spray. it was cool in mornings

Thank you for posting this, we will be doing the Sydney to Bali cruise and I was beginning to get worried at so much negativity, this will be our first cruise with Regent after it being cancelled twice due to Covid! Just looking forward to a nice relaxing cruise, with some delicious food, and hopefully meeting some nice fellow cruisers and visiting some great places 🤞

Ours came this week as well, very excited, which cruise are you on? We are Sydney to Bali on explorer

We are sailing Sydney to Bali, 26th January -13th February

We are boarding in Sydney on this day, just realised it’s Australia Day, hope we get an amazing view of the fireworks and the regatta that’s on the 26th, should hopefully be a great start to the cruise

Hi We are on Explorer Sydney to Bali in January , our 1st Regent cruise! We will I believe be required to disembark early morning our flight is 8pm ! Do regent lay anything on or are you just taken for a very long time wait at the airport ! ?

Please do not ride the donkeys in Santorini, this is cruel as a lot of people are far to heavy for these lovely animals , if no one rode them they wouldn’t be there get the cable car down, I did when we were there but I can honestly say I really don’t like this island, to hilly, to touristy, to busy
