Athens (Piraeus) to Europe Celestyal Crystal Cruise Reviews

Great Cruise ! Staff were brilliant could not do enough for you cabins very clean Selection of food superb something to suit everyone Drinks menu was like a book again so much to choose from ! We had a lovely time the only down side was my husband did not sleep great due to the noise of engines He did not bring this to staff attention if he had l know it would have been sorted out and we would ...

We chose this cruise solely on the itinerary, because it allowed us to see several Greek island locations without having to make numerous ferry trips. Because of the low cost of the fare, we had little expectations of the ship and did not expect the service or amenities to match what we had experienced on larger cruise lines. We were entirely shocked at what high quality this cruise was! First, ...

I wanted to cruise Greek islands and this ship seemed to offer less tenders and more of a Greek holiday experience with good offers too with drink package and off shore tours included in price. We had an inside cabin for a change and with the inside wall full size water/mountain scene it was lovely. The shower was a good size too with plenty of hot water. We did not want fancy Atriums, ...

My wife and I went on a 7 days cruise of Greek Islands in Celestyal Crystal , starting from Athens. It was a wonderful and enjoyable experience -we felt completely at home by the 5 star service provided by the entire ship crew. They made us feel like being part of one big family. Even though we are vegetarians there was enough spread of fruits and vegetables to ease our concerns. The F&B crew ...

After our very positive experience with the Celestyal Crystal last year, my wife and I wanted to take another cruise with this ship (see review August 2022), now with other destinations, such as Istanbul, Volos and Kavala. We had a great time again this trip, thanks in part to the very friendly, hospitable crew, the unsurpassed theater and music performances, the fine ship, the well-known inside ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary, full in the knowledge that Crystal was due for retirement in a few months, and despite it having little in the way of modern conveniences and razzmatazz. We were definitely not disappointed, and enjoyed a fabulous 2 weeks. The crew were, in the main, fantastic. Despite only having limited performers, we were presented with a different show every night in ...

We had sailed on the Celestyal Crystal before and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. For our second trip we chose the Three Continents itinerary as a means to see places that we wanted to visit - in particular the Pyramids, Jerusalem and Ephesus. While the outing schedule was at times demanding it was most certainly worthwhile. The ship herself is beautiful, and her gleaming turquoise and ...

I chose this cruise because it gave me the best value for money as a solo traveller, 1st time cruiser and avid fan of historical sites. It takes you to 3 continents, has some excursions included in the price, and has amazing shows every night, not to mention lovely, welcoming staff. What's not to like?? If you are looking for an amazing experience in complete comfort, with a stress free tour of ...

We chose Celestryal for the 3rd time as we have had 2 great cruises in the past. We love the Crystal she is a small compact ship, (yes, ship, she doesn't look like a floating warehouse with windows!) , with a fantastic crew. We wanted to relax and enjoy ourselves and that's just what happened. The first week there were only 400 passengers on board, capacity is 1200, so we had a very quiet, well ...

This cruise visits all the most sought-after islands in 7 days. I could not believe how efficient they were. We left our hotel in central Athens at 12 noon and were on the ship by 12:45. We had booked a Junior Balcony suite and were upgraded to a full Balcony Suite. Large living area, separate bedroom and a very large balcony. 2 excursions were included, and we booked 4 others. The ship is not ...
