DD and I enjoyed a wonderful round trip cruise to the lovely and breathtaking fjords of Norway. Our cruise took place in May at the beginning of the season, so we also were able to get a great price, and since I booked onboard during a previous cruise, I also got an incentive and help in choosing a cabin that turned out to be throughly enjoyable as well as a good value.

First cruise since 2019 and we went in with realistic expectations. Long time Celebrity cruisers, we liked Royal’s price point for a first sailing out of Southampton. We chose a guaranteed inside cabin as we were unsure of how much we would use the balcony on a cold weather cruise.
Embarkation was efficient as was the parking at ABP. We walked steps to the ship and were onboard by 1130 with ...
First time cruiser so I went in not knowing what to expect/low expectations but boy did it go high and beyond. I met amazing people both staff and fellow cruisers and frankly, I had the best holiday since a long while. We had a room with a balcony which I loved waking up to a different view every morning. On ship, I spent most of my time attending the free events such as shows, promotional events, ...
Our fourth cruise with Celebrity and on the whole very enjoyable. The ship was kept spotlessly clean as was our or balcony cabin, deck 8 midships. Embarcation was extremely quick from exiting our taxi we were on board in less than 30 minutes. Our first port of call Oslo was lovely, warm sunny weather and a lot of the sights were walkable as we were docked in the centre of the city. The second port ...
This was my 1st time with celebrity. Was expecting my experience to be a cut above the rest. If did not live up to expectations in virtually all departments. I'll start with a positive:- our balcony cabin was a good size, clean and comfortable. Only complaint was from my wife that when underway there was mechanical noise which disturbed her sleep, personally it did not bother me.

We chose this cruise specifically for the itinerary. We wanted a Scandinavian cruise that included both Oslo and Tallinn. Both were highlights. This was the only cruise we could find that included both ports.
Our first time on Celebrity. Previously, we've cruised with Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, and Holland America. A bonus here was that we could transfer our Royal C. Crown and Anchor points ...
Birthday treat for my grandsons aged 10 & 3
The corridor’s on the ship are wide and spacious, not like other cruise ship where they are narrow difficult for pushchairs/wheelchairs
Amazing ship with plenty to do for the older children but be prepared to queue
Plenty of swimming pools life guards are amazing
Food was good plenty of choice, beware Johnny R u have to pay
We only used ...
We chose this cruise because friends who live in the USA were boarding in New York and it was an ideal opportunity to meet up with them. The QM 2 is looking really tired but one can excuse that to some extent. We made a late booking so couldn’t get the cabin of our choice but really nothing to complain about our sheltered balcony cabin, plenty of storage and a comfy bed, our housekeeper, Hugo was ...

hurtigruten.com. Norway uses credit cards a lot! I took the equivalent of $200 Cdn and was fine. Insert your credit card into the machine and enter your pin the FIRST time you use your card. Then you’re safe to tap away! Ship only uses your cabin card for payment. ...
MSC DID WELL: the nightly entertainment was excellent. Jennifer Tierney had such a powerful voice. The ship singers and dancers were superb and well choreographed. The 3 tenors performance was exceptional. The room stewards and main dining room staff worked very hard to ensure we were well looked after. The pizza in the buffet was incredible...dare I say...addictive. I have lots of new weight I ...
