Review summary
This happened to be my first cruise so I wasn't sure what to expect. The service and employees were amazing. The shows were okay, most of them being just entertaining. Ancillary activities on the ship were fun and kept passengers busy during the days at sea. Food aboard the ship was delicious. They served almost every cuisine except for Spanish/Mexican food. The destination stops were amazing. You got just enough time to wet your appetite and I would like to definitely go back to spend extended amounts of time. On-shore excursions were over priced through the cruise. We were able to research more economical tour services for our destinations through local businesses. The drink packages were slightly over priced as well. We felt like we got our money's worth but we drank more than usual in order to achieve that value. I would pass on the drink package if I had to do it again. Finally, the stateroom attendants were incredible. I would highly recommend this particular cruise and Celebrity Cruise Line but make sure you do your homework first.

Ship tip
If boarding the ship in Rome, pre-book a car to and from the port. Taxis will rip you off. Avoid the elevators the morning of de-embarkation. They are pretty much impossible to catch and you might have to go up just so that you can be on the elevator when it goes down.
