Sail Date: Feb 2015
Cabin: Inside Stateroom 9

Sorry to say but we booked a 17 night cruise around the the top end of Australia, and Indonesia but after 8 nights couldn't take any more of the retirement village. When we arrived in Darwin we jumped ship and booked our flights back to Perth, this cruise was full of sick people with a terrible flu which we caught after a few days on board. The cabin was kept clean but many times we were just watching movies in our cabin has there was nothing to do on board unless you sat at the pool in 40 deg heat and bingo was $40 a game. The food was very average and on Australia night we had a cold meat pie unreal. This was our 7th cruise and first and last with Celebrity until we are in our ninety's and just want to vegetate till death. Do your home work this was definitely not money well spent.

Port Reviews

Perth (Fremantle)

A fast moving and lovely port, very quick to board and good parking to unload bags.

There were guys there to help take your bags to the ship and cold water on tap.

Bali

We sailed to Benoa, and took a tender to the port ! What a waste of time the port is in the middle of no where and once you get out of the port area you are swarmed with people trying to get you to pay for car hire 1 so bad most people turned straight back to return to the ship. Absolute waste of time.

Darwin

We just fell in love with Darwin, first time there, and after Indonesia the atmosphere was a lovely change. We weren't enjoying the cruise at all so decided to jump ship in Darwin and not do the remaining week on the ship we were so not impressed with this cruise, never again !!
