1-10 of 62 Buenos Aires Celebrity Eclipse Cruise Reviews
I just returned from the Celebrity Eclipse on a 12-night journey through Patagonia. I was very disappointed with the overall quality of this cruise in many ways. Having taken 41 cruises on different cruise lines, including some with Celebrity, I have ample references to comment on this trip.
First, I want to start by saying that it's not worth acquiring an upgrade to a suite. I acquired ...
It seem a lack of check for Passengers who do not sanitize ther hands! Never see that before on other Cruise Co. Result a lot of people where sick at the end of the cruise : Coughing... We where not impress with night show... Only 1 restaurant a la carte and 1 buffet all other (Speciality) you need to pay for... I did like the Qsine one. One other thing is that we thought it will be much more ...
We chose to sail buenos to valparaiso, it afforded us good sailing days with daylight viewing of cape horn & beagle channel, from our starboard balcony.
Our 2nd cruise with celebrity, we enjoyed the variety of bars to party (silent disco) or chill.
We used the main dining room 4 nights of the 12, with our final night enjoying sushi on 5, sushi enhanced by the guidance of mohamed.

We just returned from a wonderful cruise from Buenos Aires to Valparaiso, Chile for 12 days. The scenery is spectacular and the wildlife the same. We did one penguin tour in Puerto Madryn - Punta Tomba with Animal Travels that we booked thru Viator. We only used one excursion from Celebrity, but opted for smaller groups and much better prices. The scenery in Ushuaia is gorgeous, fresh fresh air. ...
Antarctica has been on my bucket list for some time and this cruise met or even surpassed my expectations. The staff were amazing especially our efficient and attentive cabin steward and our waiters in the dining room. The food was excellent for the most part but I was a little disappointed with the buffet which we only frequented occasionally. This was our fourth Celebrity cruise and we always ...
Great cruise. Bad side, the ship is in need of a complete renovation. Our Verandah stateroom had plastic curtains which had patches all over the backside to repair holes instead of replacing with new curtains. The fridge door would not stay closed completely so it never really kept anything cold. Bathrobes that are placed in the staterooms have seen their days, very cheap and flimsy.

Wanted to see Antarctica but no longer interested in getting out on the ice or paddling around in kayaks. Traveled with a group of four couples who had previously sailed on Celebrity Summit.
This class of ships are nicely designed with larger showrooms to accommodate grand productions and very nice gyms. Of course, that means the dining venues are also huge and, when full, tend to be ...
Celebrity Review
Celebrity earned a D- for the travel, logistics, entertainment, and customer service performance for their Antartica cruise relative to other luxury vacation options. The onboarding and off boarding process were a free for all, with near zero support moving heavy luggage. Completely an Unacceptable disaster. The ship was old and needs to be modernized. To be completely ...
First time sailing Celebrity. We wanted to go to Antartica (but not on an expedition ship). The itinerary was great! However, we missed the Falkland (Malvinas) Island stop due to it being a tendered stop and the weather was not great (or so they said). That created a little too many sea days all together. I'll try to sum up this review quickly:
POSITIVES:
Antartica/penguins/icebergs - ...
I chose the cruise because the destinations were clearly going to feature lots of natural history and animals ... and beautiful views of the Chilean fjords and Magellan channel. They didnt disappoint. Also, it seemed to have the right balance of sea to land days and I'd heard very good things about Celebrity. The entertainment was amazing and we grew very fond of the cruise director (Alejandro -- ...
