Okay

We picked this cruise because of the ports especially La Spezia as we wanted to go to Cinque Terre and also the price.

Ship embarkation was well organized and quick.

Cabin was inside guarantee and was on deck 8 front and was spacious lots of storageand larger bathroom also with lots of cupboards. It was a long walk to main dining room.

Dining only did main dining room which we had fixed time to eat 6:15pm but table wasstuck under stairway but quieter area than other tables.Food was okay lobster one night but it was tough. Every night they had salmon, chicken or one other item standard. Appetizerswere okay had scrimp cocktails most nights. Desserts were mostly very rich and didn't find them that great. Main buffet ate lunch and breakfast there good variety. Did breakfast once in main dining room but mostly egg dishes or pancakes no variety.Did not do any speciality restaurants as they were expensive.

Entertainment was lacking only one night with good production last night. Had areas roped off in the theater for only certain people which didn't make you feel welcome. Did this in some dining rooms you couldn't use at all.

Activities were almost non existent nothing on pool area except screaming kids and a band that played for 40 minutes who couldn't sing and weren't very good. Quiet pool was too cold to sit in with air conditioning.

Steward for cabin was outstanding.

Disembarkation was very well organized was off in 5 minutes as we had our own luggage.

Did not do any ship excursions.

Civitavecchia port took Roma Cabs from airport very effecient as plane was 3 hours late

and they were there. Stayed at Hotel Traino comes with breakfast and free shuttle to ship.

LaSpezia took cab then train to Cinque Terre bought ticket for Cinque Terre online unlimited use for 13Euro for senior.

Nice(Villefranche) tendered port very effecient went right off onto shuttle boat coming and going. Took local train to Nice then hop on hop off bus but should have taken the hop on hop off bus from port stops at castle entrance right at port Villefranche.

Ajaccio, Corsia walked around town

Cagiliari, Sardina took Petit Train or 9Euro went up and down narrow streets plus checked out local market

Naples wanted to go to island of Capri but arrived in port at 9am and couldn't get off ship till 9:30am and calling for thunderstorms so didn't go on high speed ferry. We did the hop off hop on bus around Naples did the red route downtown area and also the blue route which was along the coast. It cost 23Euros.

Rome took an extra day after cruise stayed at Hotel Ariston gave us a free upgradeand walked to train station to catch hop on hop off bus took the green line one but not a good tour stops were no where near the sites. Took bus to airport left from train station and was $6.90Euro.

Ship was spotless even had lawn on the upper deck.

I travelled with my husband and he didn't really enjoy Celebrity cruise line probably wouldn't book with Celebrity again.
