The Celebrity Equinox was a good ship to cruise. We liked our cabin in Aqua class and the restaurant Blu. The specialty restaurant Tuscany was very good and would go back again. The glass blowing paid activity was worth it for us, we made a special glass heart for our daughter and also a glass turtle which was an additional cost above the basic glass activity.

Blu restaurant was great. Main dining was okay for food. All of the servers everywhere were very good. Specialty dining in Tuscany was very good. The Petit Chef was fun, but the soup and the main was luke warm.

Cabin / Stateroom

The size of the bathroom was better than other cruises we have been on. We were in Aqua class which I would recommend for access to Blu restaurant and spa access.
Ship tip
The dress code is nicer than in other ships. Our last non Celebrity cruise the dress was a lot of shorts and t-shirts.
We really liked the tiled buildings and walked around a lot of downtown Porto. Also took a ship tour to a palace that felt rushed and crowded on the tour. Bought some Port wine while there.
Nice port to walk around. Visited the church and squares along with a market. The market was only about a quarter full on our port day so not much there.
Very busy port. Took a private tour to Asilah, but the second half in the medina of Tangier wasn't as good. Took us to a rug shop which we didn't want and didn't really talk about history or any places in the medina.
