1-10 of 267 Vancouver to Alaska Celebrity Millennium Cruise Reviews
We chose Celebrity because of friends who have sailed with them before and highly recommended this cruise line.
Let me preface this by saying that we've been on many cruises with other cruise lines and we were really anticipating going on a Celebrity ship for the first time.
To begin, our balcony room was tiny. We barely had enough space to maneuver around the room. Secondly, the food in ...
This was the fourth Celebrity Cruise we took in the past 20 years. The overall experience was still good. Staffs were nice and polite. But I found a lot of very new unexperienced staffs around. This probably due to shortage of staff after pandemic re-opening.
Cocktails were inconsistent, made differently from different bars. I had ordered 4 or 5 mojitos in this ship, only one of them tasted ...
We took this cruise to travel with Canadian friends to Alaska, we’re from the UK. Sadly the main problem is the fact we’re from different countries, we were not able to book dining to eat together. There seemed to be no solution to not being allocated a dining table together other than queueing for up to 40 mins, despite having our bookings linked. August was not a good time to escape noise, ...
We chose this cruise because the ocean view rooms looked nicer than Norwegian and had better add-ons (tips, wi-fi, classic drink package) for the overall price. The big square window with a loveseat looking out was a big plus over a small porthole between the 2 beds. We ended up bidding on a balcony room and got it! so we didn't actually stay in the oceanview room, but I'm assuming the room ...
Let’s be upfront. Alaska is an amazing cruise destination. Our pre-cruise organisation by Celebrity spoiled what should have been a holiday of a lifetime.
Pre-Cruise Organisation
We booked a Cruisetour 10 months before sailing via a travel agent. Sold the complete package, always included, pre-cruise hotel and transfers. At the time of booking the travel agent was unable to confirm ...
We chose this cruise based on the land tour option (that option gets 2 stars, as it was a shoddy haphazard attempt to piece together a land tour that fell way short…I will write a separate review… but know this… Princess & Holland America have the land tour down pat!)
Now onto the Millenium review:
The good… food…. Excellent creative meal options..e.g., Poached Lobster Tail in a Champagne ...
We have never been to Alaska and heard nothing but Rave reviews regarding taking an Alaskan Cruise. This was our first time on a Celebrity ship and were advised by our travel agent to book with Celebrity and its ship the Millennium as it was recently refurbished. We found the Renovated Millennium to be beautiful and well done. The ship was close to 3/4's full due to just starting again after Covid ...
Overall we were happy with the cruise, but the land tour was terrible. I am going to split this review into two sections. I would do the cruise part again, but if you want a land/sea tour go elsewhere!
Cruise Review
Overall we were happy with the cruise part. The rooms were nicely designed and well thought out. The bed was comfortable. We really enjoyed our balcony. It is chilly while the ...
We selected this cruise because we thought that Celebrity would have better food and accommodations as our previous experience had been favorable. The ship is old and even with a reduced guest total, the service was subpar for most of the time. You can get better values elsewhere. Cabin staff were on par with basic cruise lines. Dining room staff were okay, but recommended that we do the Tuscan ...
I bought 4 tickets for a Celebrity Alaskan cruise and 2-day land tour through Costco because of their offer of coupons. I really question the savings there when I consider the amount of time to get through to Costco Travel, never mind Celebrity. I remember holding for a long time in August 2021 to book this cruise, but finally being satisfied with a pair of connecting rooms. This reservation was ...
