The ports of call and countries are what attracted us to this cruise. This was our fifth cruise on Celebrity. Unfortunately, it was NOT the Celebrity Cruise Line that we remember. Here are some of the positives, and sadly many negatives:
Celebrity Apex is a beautiful ship. The artwork, design, color schemes all lovely. Entertainment was very good. La Petit Chef, and Fine Cut were ...
After many cruises with Celebrity this will possibly be our last. And I am sorry Celebrity but 40mph winds should not affect a cruise schedule. Since the Captain made the announcement of changes to the ships schedule and dropping Belfast many passengers have been complaining. Passengers from Australia, USA travelled many miles to visit attractions like the Giants Causeway and are now gutted that ...
We chose this cruise for its itinerary but just like three of the four celebrity cruises we have been on excuses we’re made why we had to miss a port of call . We feel they are becoming a budget cruise company at a premium price we found some of the crew disillusioned and not really bothered . We also found the food in the main dining room was well below standard with the quality and the choose. ...
We chose this cruise because I’d always wanted to go to Iceland, also another chance for celebrity to redeem itself after a very disappointing cruise round the Caribbean in February.
We have been loyal cruisers with Celebrity for years attaining Elite Plus status, sadly it’s time to say goodbye. It started with our balcony cabin, items from the previous occupants were left in the wardrobe. No ...
I have waited to post my review as I was waiting for the outcome of a complaint raised with Celebrity.
We have sailed with various cruise lines, our last 5 being with Celebrity Solstice class.
I'll start with the good: The silhouette remains a beautiful spacious ship. The service (with the exception of the MDR) was very good. Room service breakfast and the food in the buffet restaurant was ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary for Iceland & direction and timing (Our 25th). Our first and very likely LAST on Celebrity (previous on Princess/HAL). I was so disappointed in stateroom (UD Concierge), food & service. The food as many of the Elites we met in the MDR also agreed was just very, very repetitive, often slow & frequently not good. Had two hour-long waits there for our mains. We ...
We chose this cruise for two reasons. The first was the itinerary which included Iceland and Greenland. The itinerary was great and I would highly recommend it.
The second reason was because one person in our party has a gluten allergy and Celebrity has been great accommodating it in the past. Not so one this cruise. There were very few options available. In fact they offered the same two GF ...
This is our second Celebrity cruise, our previous being the Greek Isles on the Constellation four years ago, which inspired us to go again. Unfortunately it was a big let down from day one. It was billed as a “Norwegian Fjords” cruise but in reality there was only one Fjord experience into Olden with the other three stops relatively low lying shorelines into the ports (Bergen, Stavanger and ...
Just came off the Silhouette after 12 day cruise. Overall it was a unexpectedly poor experience primarily due to the severe overcrowding, every cabin packed, including many families with small children. All cabins were booked, lots of cabins seemed to be filled with families with 1-3 kids. I realize this was school holiday period in UK so we expected some amount of kids, but we thought given ...
Chose this cruise for the destination and believed Celebrity offered luxury cruises. We found this not to be the case. Ship was overcrowded, struggled to get a seat on several occasions and service was also slow at times. Ocean View Cafe at breakfast and lunch was so busy you could not find a seat, it felt like a factory canteen.
Cuvee dining, food was average, portion sizes small and ...
