Venice to Greece Celebrity Silhouette Cruise Reviews

Wife and I had a great time on the Celebrity Silhouette 7 Night cruise, departing Venice on Aug 24, 2014. We are middle-aged, and have both cruised over 10 times, mostly on Celebrity, a couple RCCL, and 1 Princess. Boarding - we have Elite status, so a wait of a few minutes to get checked in and about 10 more minutes wait for our boarding group to be called. We were in out stateroom 25 minutes ...

My wife and I spent 4 days in Venice prior to our boarding of Silhouette; taking in the sites of Venice, Murano, Burano and Torcello! It is an awesome city, very glad to finally have gotten to see it... We had a water taxi take us to the pier around 11am and I was surprised to see that there was no porter service for our baggage, we were on our own to get them inside and on to the conveyor. ...

We had always been loyal to another cruise line.. but it was becoming tired and very predictable...and so we thought that we'd try Celebrity. Wow! An amazing experience with friendly (really friendly) staff and crew, a fabulous ship (Where did they hide all of the other passengers?) and an interesting selection of ports. We have booked our next Celebrity cruise already! Venice to Venice via ...

The above looks as if I'm showing off. Apologies, it is not intended! Being Diamond Plus on RCCL and Elite on Princess I hope gives us an appreciation of what makes a good cruise and where to draw attention to things that work…or don't! We flew from London on BA, perfect timing for the ship as it arrives around 11am and it's just a 45 euro taxi ride to the port. Easy! We selected Celebrity ...

We did a back to back boarding on Aug 10th, 2014 These were our 29th & 30th cruises (24 on Princess) and the first on Celebrity. For those reading this review I will try to make a comparison. I'm sure others have different opinions but theses were our feelings. Pros: 1) Beautiful ship -.loved the balcony flooring and the bathroom 2) Friendliest crew of any of our cruises - they all seemed happy ...

Our family of 4 (kids 12 and 10) went on this one week cruise to Greece (round trip out of Venice). The cruise followed 2 weeks travel on our own. We were well ready for some relaxation. Celebrity did not disappoint. Embarkation was quite smooth. We had only a short wait for our number to be called so that we could join the queue. Perhaps a 15 minute wait and then a few more minutes to get ...

We started with a precruise trip on our own, to Lake Como, Italy. We stayed in Como which was wonderful. We recommend it. PEOPLEMOVER FROM ST LUCIA RR STATION TO PORT (A DUMB IDEA) From Como we took the trains to St Lucia Station in Venice. We prepared all we could and read all info here and on Google regarding the Peoplemover. Nothing prepared us for the onslaught of hustlers trying to carry ...
