It was a great way to get home from Chile! Certainly better than flying. Smile! We were Aqua class, which enabled the use of the BLU restaurant. We certainly enjoyed that restaurant, not only for the selection of food, but the quiet atmosphere. The team serving us, led by Marcel, deserves recognition for extra ordinary fine service. If traveling on Infinity, we would select Aqua Class again. The ...
This was part one of a Back to back cruise.
We flew in to Buenos Aires a week early so that we could see Iguazu Falls. After all, if you are traveling this far, might as well see other spots.
We got a great rate (Premier Class) on Aero Mexico from Orlando to Mexico City to Buenos Aires. A word of caution: I booked the flight online properly, and when I did a periodic check to make sure it ...
Celebrity Infinity review Feb 18-March 4 2018
We have just returned from the Infinity Antarctic cruise Feb 18. Overall, this was an amazing cruise. We began the planning almost 4 years ago ( we scheduled on a 2016 sailing but had to postpone for (good) family reasons). After that long, it was hard to believe that the time had arrived! About 3 weeks before sailing we were notified by Celebrity ...
Big Takeaways for this vacation (Some very specific because of destination and ports)
1. Use the Celebrity excursions, and book them BEFORE boarding and get to the Celebrity theater early to get on yours. My friend got to a theater for a 915 departure tour and by 910 the tour was already gone. He ran to the pier, but ship was already full and was told tour was oversold by a seat. Many other ...
Our cruise to Antarctica was a truly amazing experience onboard Celebrity Infinity. Everything about our cruise and the destinations were wonderful. The service and the crew were great. We loved the ship and found it to be so much better than the growning and moaning reviews of so many. I would sail on her again in a heartbeat and in fact we are for the next two weeks. We feel so fortunate to have ...
First of all, for the folks on the Jan. Cruise. I get it. I would have been disappointed as well. But I can only speak of the Feb Cruise. We were warned in advance to the propulsion problems. It had virtually no affect on the cruise. Top speed was 20 mph and we got everywhere on time. As smooth as any cruise I have been on. Were told in advance that we would get a refund for Puerto Madryn ...
We chose this cruise because of the destination. I also had fond memories of her sister ship Millennium.
It was the last trip to Antarctica (next year it will be a Solstice class ship).
We were very lucky with the weather. The previous cruise in January was not so lucky but we had calm seas for the most part with really only one day that was a bit rough. Cape Horn was dead flat, when there ...
We had booked this cruise 2 years ago and were very excited when the time finally arrived to go to Antarctica. We spent 3 nights in Buenos Aires beforehand and enjoyed our time there. Embarkation was straightforward, our inside cabin on deck 8 was ready quite early, we had lunch at Oceanview Cafe after we dropped off our things. The food there was very good as it was for the whole cruise.
We of ...
We chose this itinerary primarily for the 3-day stay in Rio, and it did not disappoint. The experience of Carnival in the Sambadrome was unforgettable and something no one should miss - it’s that much fun and that special.
Check in - smooth, but MANY people arrived without visas for Brazil and WERE NOT ALLOWED TO BOARD! So, if you are going to Brazil, and you are from the US, you need a visa. ...
We chose this cruise because we wanted to go to south america and go to the Rio Carnival,We have been on many celebrity cruises and though this ship was not soltice class we really liked it.Things we missed were the games room and entertainment in the atriam.But being smaller our cabin was in the centre so we did not have to walk far.
We loved the cruise director.He was very funny and had a ...
