Anyone on the forum been on one of the Saga ships ?

Never even been remotely tempted at their prices .

They look very expensive to me.

Nice little ships though.

You're too young anyway barney!!
Our first cruise was with Saga and yes they are expensive but they really do look after you. Friendly crew who cannot do enough to make sure you have a good holiday, nice little ships, wonderful food. I couldn't really fault them except they are dear.
It's very much a case of getting what you pay for with them and they don't lower their prices.
Would I travel with them again? Definitely. Would I be prepared to pay those prices? Give me time to think about it.

We've been always put off by their prices for a half decent cabin. Plus, though we are old enough for Saga, we prefer being among a more mixed age range of passengers.

Yes, we have been on many Saga cruises, though sadly not for awhile now I have lost my luggage packer

Regarding the oft suggestions that Saga are a tad pricey but there is so much included in the upfront price

The travel insurance is OKA1, we had to cancel a booked cruise and a full refund was effected with in three days of supplying the necessary paper work, transportation is of a high standard, this and all gratuities are all included in the price thus making the costs look more reasonable

Unlike most cruise lines, the specialist dining is at no additional cost as is the Coffee/Cakes emporium opened early to late

We were invited to view the "Sapphire" which is Sagas latest purchase, the ship has been completely refurbished to a high standard - most impressed

The entertainment,daytime activities together with dining experiences are first class

Saga do cater for the more matured passengers which gives the false impression of a floating nursing home, they do go the extra mile in giving the single traveler the opportunity of making new friends etc

Finally, look out for the "all inclusive" short cruises, all drinks, shore excursions included
