We just returned from our 8th Celebrity cruise this time on the Silhouette 7 day Norwegian fjords cruise out of Southampton. Ship was clean as usual, stateroom and stateroom attendant were excellent, anytime dining was easy and a real plus. All in all, the cruise was fun relaxing, and well worth it, especially with the stunning scenery we saw in the Norwegian fjords.
There were a couple of ...
Sailed on the Silhouette to the Norwegian fjords on 27/4/19 on a 7night cruise from Southampton.We last sailed on this ship in 2013 on a Mediterranean which we enjoyed.We also had a enjoyable trip to Norway but one big problem is that this is designed for warmer climates when people can sit on balconies.. When the ship is in colder waters in April /May people are unable to sit outside on ...
OVERVIEW
My husband and I are a 50'ish couple who are not regular cruisers. I have always wanted to see the Norwegian Fjords, and when i saw a good sale with 2 perks last fall, i jumped!
We were originally booked in a standard veranda cabin but about 10 days before we sailed, we received an email offering us to bid on moving up to Aqua class. I bid $10 (per-person) over the minimum, and we ...
We were told it was a wonderful way to see Norway and it was. Easy boarding at Southampton , the ship was beautiful and very well equipped . Cabins were large and very comfortable . Dining was lovely do try La petite chef you will love it. Service was second to none. Lots to do on board fabulous theatre entertainment. Very well organised excursions. You won’t be disappointed with this cruise. ...
I chose this cruise because I wanted to see the Norwegian fjords, and because a travel agent had put together a group that included some dance lessons and dancing as part of the package. I would probably not have chosen to go on a cruise otherwise but I was very pleasantly surprised by the experience.
The Norwegian fjords are beautiful and well worth the trip. The facilities and standard of ...
This was our first time on Silhouette but we knew she was the sister ship to Eclipse so we felt we would feel 'at home' pretty quickly and we were sure we would be well looked after.
Our embarkation was extremely fast and efficient, taking only about 10-15 minutes from arrival to the port to being welcomed with a glass of bubbly on board.
As Concierge passengers, we had a delicious lunch in ...
Had not been to Norwegian Fjords before. Itinerary was one of the best for several years, small towns and villages easy to get round without any strenuous tours. Those tours I did choose were with companies other than Celebrity and pre-booked online.
Celebrity Silhouette was up to its usual standard of maintaining a smooth operation, embarkation at Southampton excellent. I didn,t disembark as ...
Saturday September 1st and we were in Southampton about to board the Celebrity Silhouette cruise ship we were on our first ever cruise and we were going to visit the Norwegian Fjords. There was a fair bit of apprehension and even more excitement at the prospect.
The boarding process was smooth and efficiently done and we were on board in no time at all.
It was a wonderful sunny day, so ...
Here's some quick thoughts and ideas if you're looking to book the Norwegian Fjord cruise on Celebrity (Silhouette). By the way, we learned all cruises to the Fjords STOP in 2025, so do it while you can.
I traveled as a first time cruiser with my mom (65) and Aunt (60 something). I'm an active 37 yr old...and 18 months pregnant, for context.

We wanted to see Ireland and Norway and thought the cruise was a fabulous way to do both as it departed from Dublin!
The ship is beautiful and the crew were very pleasant and provided quick service! We were treated so well!
Ray and his team were excellent servers at the main restaurant. They were fun, fast, efficient and met all our needs. Great job! Pleasure!
