Celebrity Century

12 Night Mediterranean (Barcelona Roundtrip)

Sail date: September 07, 2010

Ship: Celebrity Century

Cabin type: Oceanview

Traveled as: Singles/Friends

Reviewed: 14 years ago

Review summary

Accomodations,food and staff were very good. The ship has next to no entertainment and is constantly trying to sell you something. We found that the shore excursions booked through the ship were marked up about 200 percent and you could find some reasonable tours with very good guides once you docked and went ashore. I would not recommend this cruise line if you want a relaxing trip.

Very poor entertainment. Almost, no entertainment at all.

Staff very well trained.

Ship Quality

Accomodations are clean and updated. They have about five bars that they promote heavily. Charge 5 dollars for a draft beer with an automatic 15% gratuity.
