This was my third cruise with Celebrity. The service was excellent with friendly helpful staff.
Celebrity really look to bump you on their excursions. Even an airport transfer is more expensive than a taxi for two. At Barcelona Celebrity were charging $30 per person. I paid 28 Euros plus a tip for a taxi. If there are 3 or more in your party it will pay you to hire a taxi guide.
The food was generally pretty good but Lobster was overcooked. The slow cooked beef could have done with 24 hours not 12.
The rooms were clean and in good condition. My friends had dirty windows and poor water pressure.
Amsterdam to Barcelona, At Dover the castle is great alternative to anything but London. In my opinion London is a waste of time because you get less than 5 hours there. The best Shopping is in Gibraltar. Get the private taxi tour of the Rock.
