Found booking online nice and easy including setting up “my Ambassador sailing”. I did find myself phoning to add something to my booking and this also was very quick.

“A great little cruise line with local departures & helpful friendly staff.”

We cruised in September 2024 with Ambassador from the first time. The proximity of the departure port was a significant determinant in our choice. Our cruise exceeded our expectations, hence our booking the current one. All the person's I spoke with at ambassador were pleasant helpful, courteous and professional. We had a little confusion in relation to a matter, however this was quickly and effectively resolved.

Trusted Customer

“Website booking issue”

Website wouldn't let me complete the booking. I switched to my phone to complete the booking and it went through OK.

Christopher Egan

“Pre-cruise coach question”

Booked a while ago, can't understand why I'm now being asked for a review unless it's because I asked a question about the pre-cruise coach from Liverpool to Dundee, which as it's still 11 months away they couldn't give any details on apart from the price

Trusted Customer

“Great job Ambassador”

This will be our third cruise with ambassador. I wanted to upgrade the inside cabin we had booked, to a outside cabin. Chloe the lady that delt with me was very friendly, and professional in her job she even gave us a complementary upgrade. l don't think you can get better service than that. We are definitely going to book again in the future. Thank you Ambassador.

“Cruising is the best....beats almost all the rest e restdtrest”

Ambassador Cruises for me have been operators of one of the most relaxed and enjoyable of Cruise Lines. Food has been of very high quality , all staff i found were friendly polite helpful , hard working, .Entertainment on board has been of the highest quality, I have been on over 7 Cruises in recent yeas and find them one of the best high traditional older design British standards on cruise ships. Also the biggest plus ➕️ 😍 is we can make tea/coffee in our cabin, especially a traditionally British way of life.

Gordon Smith

The poor girl give 100% plus she was so good and understanding as I wanted to change a cruise from one to the other and when the new one was super expensive she found a price which we could afford for the cruise I wanted brilliant customer service over above and beyond Thank-you so much Christine or Christie I think the young lady's name was...🥰🥰

Deborah Hills
