The itinerary was wonderful (it was our second Baltic cruise). Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience with TJ Travel for our St. Petersburg tour and definitely would not recommend them. Our guide was rude, we were constantly being rushed and we were even told by our guide to push people out of the way at various stops ... a much different experience from our previous tour with another ...
Typical Celebrity experience. One minor note is on beverage package. On Classic, they limit Martini Size to 4oz.-seriously?
All in, great experience from Cabin Steward to Specialty, to Main dining room. Nice amenities on Silhouette. Friendly staff.
Entertainment is not up to speed with NCL for example. But all other services especially food are really solid.
Embarkation and scheduling ...
we chose this cruise because it went to the destinations we wanted to visit. the ship was embarkation and disembarking was very easy and no stress at all, it went very smoothly..
the cabin was clean with a safe and fridge. we dined in the evenings in the main restaurant. I must say we have sailed on cruises several times, but the food quality and variety was the best we have experienced. for ...
We chose this cruise as it was the only 7 night itinerary leaving from Stockholm. Living in Scotland, we did not want to travel to Southampton to sail the Baltics. It was my 7th cruise, 2nd on Celebrity, and my friends first cruise. We are two females in our late fifties.
We stayed 2 nights in Stockholm prior to the cruise. On embarkation day We travelled to the port on the number 76 bus from ...
I was travelling with a group of friends on this cruise. We met up in Stockholm a few days before to visit the sights. We stayed in the Södra Hammarbyhamnen area of stockholm which was a quick public transit ferry ride away from downtown (and the port!)
On embarcation day, I took a transit ferry directly to Frihamnen port where the Silhouette was docked and walked right on the ship in a ...
We sailed on this Celebrity cruise as part of a rewards type trip. We have been on a handful of other cruises, one in particular was a Royal Caribbean Mediterranean cruise 4 years ago, that set the bar pretty high. The ship is really showing its age. Our room was tired and cramped, nothing out of this world. It was nice having a small balcony but it was worn, rusty and dirty. Our stateroom ...
We wanted 3 days in St Petersburg to see as much art, architecture and history as possible. This was the only cruise that offered it. Our friends had taken Celebrity cruises before, and in particular, some friends had taken this Baltic Sea cruise last year, and they all highly recommended this cruise.
Service on Celebrity ship was impeccable. This being our first cruise on a ship this large ...
We always choose a cruise for the itinerary and this one had a great one. Also we had sailed on Celebrity's sister ship the Solstice last year and loved the ship.
We find the service especially good with Celebrity, all staff are friendly and obviously well trained.
The ship is beautiful as well as understated, with pleasing decor.
On Celebrity's we also find the cabins comfortable and ...
Great ship, food and staff. Would have been a 5 star experience if the music had been turned down to normal! The sound in the theatre and all entertainment areas was so loud it was distorted. Several times we left the theatre after 5 minutes and we also had to move several times in other ares because of the volume. OK, many of the travellers were old but that doesn't necessarily mean ...
We took the Celebrity Silhouette Baltic cruise on June 19th. It was the worst cruise we ever took and we will never cruise with Celebrity again. Our dissatisfaction is mainly due to the fact that most of the crew we dealt with was indifferent and did not care at all about customer satisfaction. There are many incidents I can site, but the following are the two biggest:
Be very careful if you ...
