Celebrity delivers 5 star service by pezhudson

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Edge

I loved the ship Celebrity Edge and the captain was customer focused and spoke for 2 hours about the ship to us one day and took questions. It is a floating resort! The customer service was exceptional!

loved the historical sites very crowded by rynderslj

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Reflection

Evidently the crowds are present all the way through October. Unfortunately, the cruise lines don't visit in November when the crowds dissipate. When visiting this region we would probably choose to go off season so we would not have the extreme crowding which would mean a land tour. However, it did give us and overview of the area and where we would like to return. Rome is interesting. I would call it the NYC of Europe so very crowded.

Great taste of Italy and France by daniellesau97

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Reflection

Great cruise & beautiful ports. We would definitely recommend to friends and would consider doing the same cruise again. We booked this cruise for the ports, but were happily surprised with how much we enjoyed the ship and staff. Celebrity is a great cruise line to travel with.

Beautiful Mediterranean Cruise by nzamanski

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Reflection

A cruise is great way to go because you are settled in for the 9 days. No packing and unpacking. The lack of food from the areas is a huge disappointment and will probably not cruise again because of this. The excursions were not what we paid to see. Lots of time just driving. Be careful when scheduling. They need to offer more varied times and just a general overview of the highlights of the area.

Perfect way to see the French and Italian Rivera. So much beauty and history at each port. Can’t wait to do it again!

Enjoy the Ports not the Ship by RBas

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Reflection

We enjoyed our cruise because we got to visit many ports and the price was competitive however the ship itself leaves much to be desired. There is nothing spectacular about Celebrity Reflection (more like 3 star not 5 star) that differentiates it from other lines such as Carnival, Holland, Princess. The ship interior especially the rooms look a bit dingy and need a deep clean. We would not book this ship again and consider a different line for our next cruise.

Quite Nice by ckilhu

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Celebrity Edge

This was a great cruise with an excellent selection of ports. The ship was beautifully designed, modern and comfortable. Rooms were great as well. On the downside, the specialty and main dining restaurant food quality was mediocre (though the rooms were beautiful), and we had some poor interactions with concierge and restaurant hosts.

Cruise was not ready for cruising by chazorl1

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Norwegian Viva

Very disappointing the ship was not ready for sailing with a full ship. Ship was short staffed and staff was not trained. Could not answer basic questions. All specialty dining options were booked, but when we ate in them, they were over half empty. Was told they did not have enough staff to fill them up. Same for the shows.

10 Wonderful Cruise Ports by dianacal

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Norwegian Getaway

It was a lovely cruise with a great itinerary. This was a special occasion cruise for my birthday. Even though I mentioned it up front and it was noted on my reservation, it was never acknowledged by NCL.

Great luxury by julian33432

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Seabourn Sojourn

Seabourn is a luxury cruise line. For me, the food, caviar & our PH Spa Suite were all outstanding. The excursions not so much. The advertised suite attendant never materialized. Never a line to wait on & the ship felt very private & upscale. However, never met the cruise director or Captain.

Good family cruise...great way to visit 2 countries! by mvsears

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Norwegian Epic

Ship was fine, but disappointed in Norwegian as somehow they gave away one of our cabins (their fault) and were not able to fix this....offered absolutely NOTHING to make this right. Left very bad taste in our mouth...not sure will travel with Norwegian again.

Excellent Service by LjC3

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Celebrity Edge

Skipping the drink package and planning our own excursions made it good value for the money.
