Celebrity Galaxy

10 Night Eastern Mediterranean (Rome Roundtrip)

Sail date: August 22, 2008

Ship: Celebrity Galaxy

Cabin type: Oceanview

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 14 years ago

Review summary

The ship was older but in good condition. It was hard to find a chaise near the pool areas unless you got there before 9am. The evening dinner in the restaurant was good but wasn't impressed with the pasta bar or the Oasis cafe for evening meal.

Ports of call

Mykonos, Greece

3 out of 5
Enjoyed the shops, restaurants were very pricey!

Rhodes, Greece

3 out of 5
The tour of the ruins and scenic Rhodes was a waste. The worst of the trip. Would have enjoyed just seeing Rhodes on my own as the downtown area looked very nice.

Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey

3 out of 5
Enjoyed a typical turkish buffet. Also Ephesus was a great tour. Felt cornered after attending a rug demonstration.
Don't Miss: Ephesus

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

3 out of 5
Of course, visit the acropolis and all in that area. Was a bit disappoined in the Platka area, but it was very hot the day we were there. Probably wouldn't choose to go back to Athens, but glad we went once.
Don't Miss: Acropolis

Naples, Italy

5 out of 5
Really enjoyed the bus trip on the Amalfi Coast, plus Pompei. The lunch at the Panaroma rooftop restaurant was very good.
Don't Miss: Amalfi Coast was great, plus Pompei

Pros: The ports that we visited, most of the tours and being in a port most of the day.

Cons: Not enough choices for the evening meal - if you didn't choose to eat in the Orion dining room. One tour wasn't up to par, Rhodes. Also, was disappointed in the spa services. A facial consisted of having lotions rubbed on your face. I could have done that at home!
