Europe - Greek Isles Cruise Reviews

Positives: Excellent value for money. Housekeeping superb. Friendly bar staff. Very comfortable beds. Some lovely bars on deck 8 and nice general restaurant (Thalassa) on deck 7 Negatives: General issue onboard with regards to hygiene, half of hand sanitizers consistently empty, concerning when there was plenty of coughing and sneezing onboard. Problem with A/C in room ...

Having cruised a dozen or so times with several lines, we decided on Celestyal for a short 4 night cruise out of Lavrion. The itinerary was the selling point along with the timing- my daughter's Spring Break kept us locked into a specific week. We knew it probably would be a step down from the Holland Americas of the world but figured the islands visited would make up the deficit. When we booked, ...

Summary of the Celestyal Journey cruise (14 days 3-23 - 4-6-24) Despite having low expectations beforehand, the cruise fell below my expectations. As hard as it was to gather information before the cruise, once onboard it truly wasn’t much better. For someone who is a ‘planner,’ not knowing when a tour is going to leave until after 9:00 the night before just doesn’t work. The shame of it ...

After reading reviews of the Celestyal Journey's first cruise in September we were apprehensive to say the least, but hoped that, by now, the glitches were all sorted out. And they were. This is one of the best cruises we have ever undertaken. We booked this on the 29th Feb sale day for the staggeringly low price of £140.00. 5 nights, 6 days, and overnight in Istanbul. Unbelievable. Included ...

Our very first cruise . ( we usually stay in good 4 star hotels for point of reference ) Embarkation : this was a bit odd, arriving an hour early there was nowhere to prompt us where to go . Inside the terminal we thought ...but no ..we were supposed to line up outside next to the taxi rank , but it wasnt organized yet , nor was there anything telling you where it would be .We were on the ship ...

I totally love this little 1250 max roughly little ship. Great Service, great staff attitude, great value. We have done a number of big ship cattle cruises which we we really started to dislike. No queues for anything apart from the odd coffee. The entertainment was really good and well thought out for 9 days, credit to the director. We are hoping to return to Athens in October for another ...

This is our second cruise with Celestyal, and will not be our last. The staff from the Celestyal Crystal had transferred to the Celestyal Journey, and we were delighted to be remembered by many of them, which increased our cruise enjoyment. Originally a three week cruise to start with the Three Continents, which was changed to a new itinerary, due to the conflict in Gaza. For the first week, ...

First time on cruz and it was wonderful . From the first day to the last day it was everything perfect . The cabin it was nice , the crew it was perfect and the food it was delicious. The organization it was excellent. For one week you can see a lot of beautiful places like Santorini, Kusadasi, Mikonos, Heracleon , Milos, Athens , and from all this places you can enjoy in beautiful ...

We are regular travelers but usually we take trips on our own: treks, road trips, clubs with personal excursions... We found a cruise offer on the internet and decided to give it a try! Friends who were fans of this type of trip had told us about their experiences and, despite a rather negative a priori, we tried! We have to admit that it was a perfect trip! We really liked the ship with superb ...

We have Just got off our Celestyal Journey 7 night Idyllic Aegean cruise in Athens and have been blown away by how much we have enjoyed ourselves… we cannot wait to cruise with Celestyal again! We originally booked their 3 continents cruise because it ticked Egypt and the Pyramids off our bucket list. Having previously cruised with some of the big cruise lines (RCCL, NCL, Princess, Disney, ...
