This was the 11th cruise on a Celebrity ship for my wife and I. We had high expectations, especially since our last 2 cruises were in Aqua class. We were in a Veranda on this cruise.
The staff was as usual exceptional. The food was better that I remembered (and this was in the main dining room). Deserts and pastries were fantastic! Since we had visited many of the ports, we didn't take tours in all of the ports, but with the overnight in Cartegna, we were able to take the carriage ride in the old city at night. It was wonderful.
We didn't realize that Equinox has a team from the Corning Glass Museum and they were creating pieces on board. A truly wonderful experience. The only negative was the entertainment in the theater. My expectations were very high from previous Celebrity cruises, but I was disappointed. As hard as the singers and dancers tried, they just didn't have the materiel. So we went to the glass blowing on 2 nights (GREAT) and found other things to do on others.
