This was our first cruise and it was perfect. Starting from the very first moment of embarkation and until the very last when leaving the ship. Everything is very well thougt and organized, just come and enjoy without any thoughts. Ship looks great, is very clean and excellent maintained, and the most important - top service, whereever you are!!! I have travelled a lot, both for business and for ...
I really wish I had paid more attention to Social Studies and History when I was in school. As well I wish my short term memory was better. This cruise through parts of Greece and Turkey was really something. We went on a good number of excursions all of which we enjoyed thoroughly. I had been told that a highlight would be Ephesus (Kusadasi) in Turkey and it was certainly that. Santorini in ...
We had booked this cruise mainly on the destinations with Istanbul being our number one priority to visit. Unfortunately a couple of weeks prior to sailing the overnight stay in Istanbul was cancelled due to the ongoing troubles in the region. I was quite concerned about the cancellation as we were on a Celebrity organised fly cruise which only arrived very late on the day of sailing but was ...
They have removed all the stylish features that made Celebrity so splendid in the past!
No barber shop quartet
No string quartet
No harpist
No pianist
No card room
No cinema
Very poor speakers
All that is left are the revenue raising talks, auctions, gambling, drinking
Celebrity shame on you. You have lowered your standards to worse than awful. And you were once one of ...
This cruise met all my expectations of a Celebrity cruise. Ship was very clean, had great staff and great entertainment.
There are now four production shows that are new. I found out the dancers and singers had only came on ship two weeks ago and performed the shows one time before. They were excellent and looked like they had performed for months.
Guest entertainers shows were varied ...
This was our second cruise with Celebrity and our second in Aqua Class. We chose the cruise for the ports, especially to see Ephesus. We came in a couple of nights early and did some guided tours around Istanbul which was a pleasant surprise, as the city really feels safe, alive and full of interesting sights where the very old and the new seem to sit so well together. The ship was excellent, ...
This was our first cruise and if we hadn't planned and paid a land trip for next year already we would have booked another cruise for 2016, never mind we are planning for 2017 now, so we clearly got bitten by the cruise bug. Since we have no other cruises to compare to, this might be an "over the top" review for seasoned cruisers, anyway this is our personal experience.
We started actually our ...
The good:
Our cabin was comfortable. Not spacious, of course.
Steward service was extraordinary.
Service in the Silhouette restaurant was excellent.
Wonderful itinerary.
The not-so-good:
The food -- both in Silhouette, and the Oceanview buffet, was inconsistent. Of course the buffet is prey to the usual buffet limitations...runny eggs, lukewarm food. Silhouette did some ...
Celebrity Constellation Cruise – Turkey, Greece, Croatia – 12 days
This cruise was awful. The room was not up-to-date very old décor, most likely just repainted. No entertainment for cruise days, food was the same breakfast, lunch and dinner, tasteless. There was a 24-hour coffee but only one station opened and sometimes the coffee was cold or not made or no milk, cream and cups. Also the ...
We went on this cruise solely because of the itinery which proved to be the correct choice. The Greek Islands & Turkey were great. We arrived in Istanbul late due to the flight time, then over 1hr 20 to get to the ship by then it was 2045 so up to the buffet for something to eat.!st impressions ok, not realising same thing all the time.
Next morning , breakfast. What a carry on, first of all ...
