Victory Cruise Lines Reviews 

This was our first cruise ever. We found it relaxing. The food was excellent and the crew was friendly and always ready to help. We liked that it was a smaller ship with less passengers than the bigger ones cruising the Great Lakes. We will certainly consider doing another cruise with you.

The attention from the staff. They were always willing to help. The excellent food and drinks. The entertainment on our cruise was beyond great. Plenty of good music to dance to. The side trips were enjoyable. This is a small thing, but we weren’t crazy about the smell of the body soap and lotion.

We missed an excursion because of bad communication. You couldn’t hear anything on the intercom even after I told them at a meeting with backup. The food and the waitstaff and the cleaning crew were excellent. I will not be taking a Victory cruise again.

We liked the excursions. Everything was well-organized. Entertainment was fabulous. Staff was very good. Cabins are old - would like coffee option in rooms. This is an older crowd - fix the bathroom thresholds and get closed-captioning on TV. Cabins could have a little more luxury feel.

It was a 5 star experience. The service was spectacular, the food was gourmet. The entertainment was excellent. The ports and excursions were outstanding, The only possible complaint was that there is no room service.

The service, food, all the staff were great. They made you gerl like they were your friends talking you by name whenever they saw you & remembered your preferences
Good was the best I have had.

Give more detailed descriptions of excursions. Had we known SC Johnson was in Racine, we might have chosen a different excursion. 90 minutes on a bus was not something we wanted to do.
Kensington was a waste of time. The Distillery District was enough to fill the entire day. Perhaps an entire day at Niagara Falls! Escanaba was a yawner. Why not Toledo or 2 days elsewhere?
Food was excellent; porter great; doctor professional, tour guide left much to be desired. And…I’m certain we will be reimbursed for cancelled architectural tour. Captain made correct decision by remaining in Milwaukee.

Wonderful ship, crew, food. Thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. Met many nice folks!
Loved the included excursions.

Our 9 day cruise was luxurious on Victory 1! Crew was amazing with their attention to detail and outstanding service. The chef created fresh delicious menus that were unique and creative with a beautiful presentation. The staff serving us in the dining rooms were equally outstanding in their service and attentiveness. Jack and Menino quickly became our favorites and we looked forward to seeing them ever day. Our Cruise Director, Nicole was wonderful with her daily announcements, sense of humor and approachability. Plus, she and her husband Sean and percussionist Jeremy were the nightly live music entertainment! We would definitely book another cruise where she was the Director. Our room stewart Sid was very attentive to our preferences and provided outstanding service.
Our Captain was extremely personable and available for guests to interact with. The shore excursions were well planned with excellent local tour guides. Our Lakelorian, Michael was delightful and humorous with his informative talks and presentations on the Great Lakes history, including locks, ports and industrial facts. He was very social and interacted delightfully with guests. Every detail of our experience was thoughtfully planned out by Victory!

Awesome cruise with a great crew, fabulous food and fantastic entertainment! We loved it and hope to cruise Victory again in the near future!!!!

Staff and service

The ship was the perfect size. The food was amazing and the crew was very friendly and polite.

My first cruise. All staff super friendly. Great food. Any request was done quickly.

The staff was excellent, across the board. Not one person was less than terrific. Some of the shore excursions were over priced but all in really great. We had a wonderful time!

The service was just outstanding. Every single crew member could not have been nicer.

The food was excellent. The whole crew was very friendly and helpful.

Excellent Adventure ✨
Thank You….
Your crew, staff, and
attention to all passengers made for a memorable sailing.
Continue Success as Victory sails the
Great Lakes 💫

This was my first cruise. I didn't want to be on a ship with 5000 strangers. I liked the size of the Victory I. The ship had nice accommodations and the crew provided excellent service. The food was fantastic. My biggest worry was overindulging. The ports of call and available tours were interesting. I even learned about things and places in my own home state that I had never known before.

The crew was so friendly and helpful. Food was amazing. Entertainment was great. Met great people on board.

Great food. Excellent staff, overall.
