Dismal customer service!

I'm s chaplain and try not to be critical but this is one of the worst businesses I've ever had the displeasure of engaging..... just awful customer service.

Thank you Francine!

We initially had a few issues with changing sail dates and cancellation fees we were unaware of, but we were able to get everything cleared up with Francine! She was very transparent and helpful; thanks to her we were able to move our cruise to a time & location that works better for us. We booked this for my mom's 60th birthday and just told her the surprise the other day- she's thrilled and we're all excited for the trip! Thank you so much Francine for your help!

You exclusions activity websites are…

You exclusions activity websites are not only one and price are different, also too expensive . Your 1800 phone number no one to pick when I wait to call at the midnight in USA and 9:00am in Italy.

Hi Michele,

Thanks for your feedback. We offer shore excursions in partnership with Shore Excursion Group, but customers are not required to use this service. Our phone hours can be found at https://www.cruisebound.com/contact-us - we have live agents available 9 AM – 6 PM ET and AI support outside of that.

Regards,
Cruisebound

Great company great support

This is a great company and they're very creative. It is easy to see why they are growing so fast. Their prices are cheaper than booking directly with the cruise companies and their support is phenomenal.
