Review summary

This was a fantastic selection of ports.  We had wanted to visit Amsterdam so this was he perfect beginning of our cruise. Although Berlin was a 3 hour bus ride from the port, we probably would never traveled to just Berlin.  The next stop was Talinn, Estonia, a charming town.  Of course, the highlight of the trip was 2 days in St Petersburg.  What a fantastic city.  The art and architecture was overwhelming.

To round out the trip. was Helsinki, Stockhom and Copenhagen, all delightful stops.

I prefer ships the size of the Constitution.  Its large enough to have the amenities I want and small enough that we could meet new friends and see family.  I found the food good and varied.  As a Captain Club member, I was pleased with the "goodies" that you have as a member.  We did have a plumbing problem, our shower leaked.  This was corrected and we were sent a bottle of wine as an apology for our inconvenience.  We had booked our bus from the port to the airport and were delighted to learn that our luggage would go directly to the airport where we would reclaim it. The departure was as easy as had been our embarkation.

Ship tip

The Spa has a good assortment of exercise equipment but if you go at peak times, you'll have a wait. Mid morning worked well for us

Thanks for the review. We’re sailing aboard Celebrity Constellation in a few months (in the Caribbean) but we’re also sailing a similar Northern Europe itinerary (with a different cruise line though) next year!
