We had always been loyal to another cruise line.. but it was becoming tired and very predictable...and so we thought that we'd try Celebrity.
Wow! An amazing experience with friendly (really friendly) staff and crew, a fabulous ship (Where did they hide all of the other passengers?) and an interesting selection of ports.
We have booked our next Celebrity cruise already! Venice to Venice via ...
Wife and I had a great time on the Celebrity Silhouette 7 Night cruise, departing Venice on Aug 24, 2014.
We are middle-aged, and have both cruised over 10 times, mostly on Celebrity, a couple RCCL, and 1 Princess.
Boarding - we have Elite status, so a wait of a few minutes to get checked in and about 10 more minutes wait for our boarding group to be called. We were in out stateroom 25 minutes ...
My wife and I spent 4 days in Venice prior to our boarding of Silhouette; taking in the sites of Venice, Murano, Burano and Torcello! It is an awesome city, very glad to finally have gotten to see it...
We had a water taxi take us to the pier around 11am and I was surprised to see that there was no porter service for our baggage, we were on our own to get them inside and on to the conveyor. ...
Our family of 4 (kids 12 and 10) went on this one week cruise to Greece (round trip out of Venice). The cruise followed 2 weeks travel on our own. We were well ready for some relaxation. Celebrity did not disappoint.
Embarkation was quite smooth. We had only a short wait for our number to be called so that we could join the queue. Perhaps a 15 minute wait and then a few more minutes to get ...
We probably would have been happier on a smaller ship with less passengers, and a slightly shorter cruise. As first-time cruisers, we were overall satisfied with the Celebrity Silhouette and found that everything promised was there and often more. Celebrity—and being on a cruise—makes it easy to travel and have lots of conveniences and not have to worry about too much. The Silhouette is a lovely ...
We started with a precruise trip on our own, to Lake Como, Italy. We stayed in Como which was wonderful. We recommend it.
PEOPLEMOVER FROM ST LUCIA RR STATION TO PORT (A DUMB IDEA)
From Como we took the trains to St Lucia Station in Venice. We prepared all we could and read all info here and on Google regarding the Peoplemover. Nothing prepared us for the onslaught of hustlers trying to carry ...
We just came back from our first time cruise this May, 2014 from Rome to Venice, via the Greek Isles. We decided to go on Celebrity because the reviews were so good. I have to tell everyone that this cruise line is indeed great.
The embarkation process was easy, fast and smooth. We had lunch on board while we waited for our cabin to be ready. The Silhouette is a beautiful ship. Well laid out and ...
We've cruised many times and in recent years have moved away from big ships, preferring the small more intimate ships instead. However, this Celebrity cruise had exactly the itinerary we were looking for and the price was very attractive compared to the small ships we were considering. We were very hesitant about the size of the ship, but decided to go for it based on many positive reviews seen ...
After sailing more than 35 times on more than 10 different cruise lines, my wife and I are convinced that Celebrity's Solstice Class ships are fantastic. With 2900 passengers, you are never crowded.
Aqua class with it's separate Dining Room Blu is great!!!!!! Ferdinand and his staff in Blu will do everything and anything to make your dining a real pleasure.
Lisa the cruise director is Avery ...
