“Site defect. Telephone very good.”

Initialled attempted to book on line but their site failed to let me progress so I phoned. Very short wait before phone was answered. The call handler was very efficient and helpful. It was completed very quickly. Good.

Peter Coleman

“Exceptionally pleased”

I was hesitant about booking again with Ambassador but found the whole booking regime a pleasure. Julie was very helpful and I found the whole process easier than I had thought it would be. I am looking forward to the cruise as a “solo” for the first time

Trusted Customer

“Fantastic”

Very good

Gail Scott

“Easy to navigate website.”

Easy to use website with clear instructions. I like how you can pay a deposit and the balance at a later date. Great to have the deck plans to help you choose your cabin.

Terry Mullen

“Review”

Very good service via email and new bookings but guest services never answer the phone

Sarah Hope

“Disappointed with the lack of interest from the booking desk”

I started booking on line and needed to phone the booking line with a query regarding a discount code as my husband is a member of Essex Cricket and they are linked with Ambassador cruise lines. The female at the other end of the phone said very abruptly the cruise I was wanting is already discounted and you cannot have discount twice. I said fine and asked her if she would do the booking for me. She said as I had already started the booking I might as well continue. I thought that was very strange as I may very well have thought well I won’t bother now and Ambassador would have lost the booking. I was very disappointed with my first impression.di
