Excellence in all Aspects
I have always had excellent service from Louisa Maynard, she really is a star. She is patient, she listens, responds quickly and accurately. She always gives the feeling that nothing is too much trouble. Any service received from The Cruise Line is always professional and efficient.

2 Cruises booked with ease.
Booked 2 cruises 1 Explora , 1 Windstar for 2027 . Superb service from Nikki , who is very professional and friendly to deal with .I had trouble with a different Agent don’t know why I just didn’t go straight back to Nikki . She got me exactly what I wanted at an honest price and her responses to my questions etc.. were met with a can do attitude and I received my answers in a timely manner , making the whole booking a breeze .

Another cruise booked through Nikki Morgan at The Cruise Line. We have had the pleasure of dealing with Nikki for many cruises and she always makes it such a pleasure to part with money. Excellent service and she knows what we would like before we do.

Much appreciated! Glad we could help 😊
They have provided us with excellent service for years!
My wife and I have been going on cruises for over twenty years and have relied on Cruiseline for our bookings for at least the last fifteen years. They provide great service and advice. Our consultant, Lynne, always reacts quickly to our requests. Most recently within a couple of days she helped us cancel one booking and secure a suite on another cruise.

That's wonderful! I'm so grateful you've trusted us for so long. I was really pleased we could turn that cancellation around quickly and get you into the suite on the other cruise!
Looking forward to the next one!

Fuss Free Change Of Travel Arrangements/Intinerary with Expolra Journeys ...
We found it necasary to change the arrangements for a cruise on Explora Journeys, as we decided to switch over to a UK departure & arrival itinerary.
Jess Garwood at Cruiseline was exemplorary and made the changeover process fuss free, explaining clearly what was required and then took care of all the arrangements.
We were very impressed and would not hesitate to reccomend Cruiseline and especially Jess, who is always cheergful & happy to help!
