A great opportunity for a Scandinavian sampler. I'd do it all again.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Embarkation was super easy. We were running behind and embarked only an hour before the gangway went up.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
We stayed in the Retreat in a suite, so we had access to Luminae. TBH, I found the options in Luminae to be too "foodie" and just not something I wanted to eat. There's just no need for an appetizer of pig's foot carpaccio and roasted fluke. I was much better off going to OceanView Cafe for many of the meals, which is disappointing when you have a specialty restaurant available to you.

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our stateroom attendant and butler were so helpful. We didn't need much special attention, we're pretty low maintenance.
Ship Quality

I loved all the art! Take the art tour if you get a chance.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Our suite was perfect for us. It was tidied up twice a day, and we never need anything.
Ship tip
Find your hang-out early. Seek out good bartenders/servers and stick with them.
We got a bonus day in Stockholm because of the bad weather in Visby. We visited the Vasa Museum and also the Nobel Prize Museum. The Vasa was ok, and the Nobel was exceptional. It was not at all what we expected. Definitely worth checking out.
A beautiful city. We took the Celebrity-sponsored tour of the palaces of Copenhagen, and it was absolutely fascinating, particularly the tour of Christianborg Palace. So beautiful.
We toured Oslo on our own, and we had a great time. We took a cab to the city center and walked around a bit on our own. We toured the Oslo Opera House and grabbed a bite at a local cafe when it started to rain.
