What Creators Are Saying About Sapphire Princess
Missing Montenegger was disappointing, but seeing an active volcano erupt from the water became one of the most memorable moments of the entire cruise.
Joe
The food here in Princess doesn't disappoint. So, you know, just talking about the differences, right? This is our first European cruise that we take.
Expedition Genao

Sapphire Princess Cruise itself was kind of marred a little bit by a mechanical problem that is just one of those things you can't control.
Oakland Travel
The Sapphire Princess is one of those ships that long-time cruisers tend to speak about with a knowing smile.
