I don’t usually write reviews on services received but the exceptional help I received today from Chris Tshimanga has prompted me to do so. She is extremely helpful and patient and dealt with my problems and questions so efficiently - even working a little magic for me!! She is a star. T

We agreed a price for a cruise and paid the deposit.. 118 even sent a CONFIRMATION email. That same evening we received a phone call saying they had undercharged island wanted more money! We refused to do that and asked for our deposit back.. We still do not know if we are looked or not inspite of my asking for clarification.. Not good enough and we will not be using them again.

Good Evening Mr Philip Charles Buss, I can completely understand your frustration. Whilst we are unable to comment on what other passengers may have / may not have paid for this particular sailing however from time to time cruise lines may decide to release fluid offers to stimulate sales which are due to supply and demand of the product, its nature of course is perishable. There can be occasions where a more attractive offer becomes available than the one booked and also on occasion where the demand is high the price then increases, and booking earlier would then be a benefit. Unfortunately any changes made to the cost, once you have made your booking, are completely beyond our control. We work on a live booking system and are therefore only able to quote the best available fare at that moment in time and as such our advice can really only be for our customers to make a booking when they are happy with what is being booked and the price being charged for such. We are sorry that you are unhappy,we value your business and are working hard to earn your continued patronage, we hope you will give us the opportunity to do so. If you would like to discuss this further you can contact our customer service line on 0808 250 0913.

I have used this company for years and found that this time the fell a little short. I found an offer on line. When I tried to book they quoted me the full price. I declined but had a phone call back within 10 minutes to say they had made a mistake and there was an offer for the price they had quoted. No complaints about the booking procedure afterwards.

Enquired on three different occasions for prices advertised and told that they were unavailable and the price would then rise on each occasion by £300-500pp - very misleading & frustrating.. Website needs to be revised, should be able to get accurate prices at first glance. Eventual booking was straightforward, staff are always polite.

I was looking for a solo cruise they are hard to find so I thought the congrigie would know all the cruise ships with solo cabins didn't mind where or when it was going. He looked on the 118 list and told me he has a.special offer on this cruise going France Spain Italy Malta 14 Feb. He carried on booking flight from Edinbyrugh overnight in hotel pick up from hotel to cruise shop I asked how much will it cost he said it's a great deal you got a Balcony same price as inside eventually at the end of the read back that's when I was Told it was £1500 that was the same prise as 2 people sharing. I was not happy as I went back on 118 and there..were loads of deals going to better place I have never been too. I emailed the congrgie to cancell the flight and book 1/2 solo cruiseslater in the year after 4 days.trying to get a reply I was getting annoyed I complained to management. I was then told I will loose my £1500 if I cancel my cruise and that I could not change it for another cruise because the cruise was going on 14th Feb I had no good service price was for 2 people sharing and was refused to book another cruise instead of the one I was going so will not recommend or travel with 118 again disappointment all round.

I initially filled out an online form and asked to be contacted in the evening between 8 and 10. Nobody called me. The next day someone (A man) called me during the day when I was at work. I said I couldn't talk and could they call back that evening. This time they did, asked me all the same questions I had put on form and then said they would email me with prices the next day. They didn't! 2 more days went and I called the office, I spoke to a lovely helpful lady called Paula, despite searching your systems everywhere she couldn't find any details of my previous interaction with you. Usually at that point I would just go elsewhere but as she was so helpful I accepted her offer to assist me. I then consequently booked for us to sail on an Australia to New Zealand cruise. However having tried today to "manage my booking" I can't get into either your site or Princess cruises site with the details you have provided me. Overall apart from Paula's help the service is really poor, it's only because she was so good that I gave an acceptable rating.

Jordan Robinson persevered with trying to contact me in order to discuss a cruise booking which had been sent via email initially. He spent a good deal of time on the phone discussing our requirements and phoned back at the time we had agreed . This resulted in a booking. Unfortunately an important aspect of the cabin booked was omitted in our discussions and which only came to light on receiving the booking confirmation. This resulted in further calls to Cruise 118 and a cabin change. Nevertheless, Jordan's help in booking this cruise was helpful and professional. Thank you!

Cassie was very amenable and cheerful. However, I was surprised to be told that she could only offer me just over 2% discount off our £4,300 cruise! Thomas Cook would have given me 4%! I have booked with Cruise 118 for the last three + years, but I will be going elsewhere for my three cruises in 2019.
