Review summary

Great cruise. The staff is fabulous. The ship is beautiful. The itinerary was gorgeous. We’re staying on the ship for two more cruises. Nobody has a breakfast and lunch buffet like Celebrity!

Easy and fast.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Excellent service. Food very good. More variety would be nice for back-to-back cruisers.

Onboard Activities

We did as many tours as possible, and we attended the theater shows. There are too many repeat shows or back to back cruisers. More lectures on interesting subjects it also be nice m.

Entertainment

This shows were excellent. However, there are too many repeated shows for back to back cruisers.

Sorry we didn’t get to stay on with you to Norway, but probably just as well since I got a cough/fever the day we returned home. Glad you got to have a great time except repeat shows.

Perhaps, next time you might try a side to side rather than a b2b in order to get some variety of food and entertainment.
