Additional details
Chose this cruise for the itinerary and Celebrity. We were not disappointed. Those who say Celebrity has gone down hill, I firmly dispute. We sailed on the Eclipse and the ship was in great shape. The crew was very friendly and engaging from Captain Leo on down. The only misstep was the first stop of Fredericia, Denmark. Really not a great spot with little to do. Would have rather spent more time in Stockholm. Aside from that this was a great cruise. Weather was not bad, some clouds and rain on one day but nothing to stop the tours. Leaving out of Southampton England was perfect with plenty to do when arriving the day before. The small music groups on the ship were entertaining. Production shows were pretty good, but that's not our primary reason for cruising or picking a ship. Aqua Class did not disappoint and the new items on Blu's menu were a welcome. Most of our excursions were with an off-site company that was excellent. I would recommend the Eclipse and this itinerary to anyone without hesitation!

AquaClass 1
Great bumpout cabin just off the library and central elevators
Port Reviews
Southampton
Great place to visit a day before the cruise. Hotel was within walking distance to the port.
Copenhagen
Did the hop-on, hop-off bus. Great way to see the city. Not enough time in the day, so really pick what you want to see before going and go from there.
Cherbourg
Not the best city. Nice enough town to do a little walk, but not much else.
Rostock (Warnemunde)
Went on our own. Started by taking the train to Rostock. Easy enough but wish we would have spent more time in Warnemunde. Can best describe as a weekend resort time for the locals with beaches and a wharf full of shops and restaurants. Very nice!
