The NCL Gem is one of the more elegant cruise ships in the Norwegian Cruise Line fleet. You’ll enjoy the same Freestyle cruising experience of informal dress codes, relaxed dining times, and plenty more, but on a ship that offers slightly more sophisticated décor and a calmer atmosphere, perfect for an adult-only cruise for those who want a fun but peaceful escape.
The Norwegian Gem offers plenty to do, including an outdoor sports court, two swimming pools, and plenty of kid-friendly facilities and clubs for families. Come the evening, the wide array of bars and lounges means you’ll always find the perfect ambience and music for your tastes.
Norwegian Gem Restaurants and Bars
When it comes to tucking into some top cuisine, nowhere does it better than the NCL Gem. Pizza 24/7 does exactly what it says; you can get freshly made pizza delivered directly to your table, stateroom, or favourite bar or lounge at any time. If you fancy eating in a restaurant, then head to the Orchid Garden Asian Restaurant and enjoy freshly made noodles and wok fried dishes. There are so many places to eat that you’ll find somewhere new for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Grab a drink whenever one takes your fancy with Norwegian Gem’s range of bars. Treat yourself to a midday cocktail at the Atrium Cafe and Bar. If you’re a wine connoisseur, then the Magnums Champagne and Wine Bar is right up your alley, and for whiskey lovers, there’s Maltings Beer and Whiskey Bar.
