We spent a week before the cruise driving through Tuscany. We were nervous to be driving in a foreign country but with the help of GPS we had so much fun. All of the little villages that we might never have seen if we hadn't. Then it was on to our cruise. The itinerary for this trip was spectacular. Each city that we visited had its own special charm and what could possibly top the monkeys in Gibraltar. Even though this ship is one of the larger of Celebrity ships, we never felt crowded. We always book Aqua Class because we like the intimacy of Blu. The staterooms are always well attended . The entertainment on the ship seemed very well received. There were many different nationalities on board and the range of entertainers seemed to be adjusted to take into consideration that many people were not English speaking. We give this itinerary a 5 star rating.
