Review summary

This is the best itinerary. A new port everyday and only 1 day at sea. We hiked, explored and snorkeled. We NEVER take excursions. +20 cruises and we have not spent anything on organized excursions. We just walk around the port away from the tourist traps, find a taxi, barter for a price, and go explore. We have never had a problem and meet the nicest people along the way. Get out of your shell and embrace the land, the culture and the people.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food was not up to Celrebrity standads based on our previous Celeb cruises. I think the chef is do for a retrofit.

The house band was fantastic. They were from Mexico and played old rock hits (Santana, AC/DC/ Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple).

This is an old ship and obviously in need of a retrofit.

Cabin / Stateroom

Very nice design cabin, better than most newer ships. Lots of storage.

Ship tip

Poolside bar is very slow as it is really busy. Go to the snack bar where they cook burgers, you can get drinks there with no line up.
