Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Anyone book Greg's Safaris? We are interested in a morning tour I have emailed them directly but no answer yet. Was there a lot of walking involved or could you stay in the vehicle , or near it , while others walked around. Thanks in advance.
  2. We enjoyed the smaller ship. Yes she is a little tired but very clean and the crew was outstanding. Service was great. There were 1050 passengers. I heard no mention of Covid the whole time we were on board. Disembarking in Ravenna was smooth. We opted for the transfer from ship to Venice City Center. We were able to buy a 3 day vaporetto pass when we got off the bus and rode it to our hotel. Spent 3 days enjoying Venice. Then took the high speed train back to Rome. Spent the night in Rome and then flew back to Newark. It was a wonderful trip on a wonderful ship. Very happy with Celebrity.
  3. We took all our tours thru Celebrity. Most of the tours had about 30 people and with the exception of 1 were excellent. The guide on the tour of the Amalfi coast and Pompeii was not good. I hated to complain but I did to guest services regarding his tour. If they do not know there is a problem they cannot fix it.
  4. We are not big fans of the production shows on cruises so only went to a few we did enjoy some of the music in the lounges and really enjoyed the game shows and trivia. It was so nice that Benjamin remembered us from our last cruise in February on the Reflection.
  5. We had anytime dining and had a great waiter and assistant waiter and sommelier that the hostess was able to reserve the same table for our whole cruise. The food was very good our whole cruise. At times the buffet at lunch did not have food to our taste but we were always able to find something we liked and never were hungry. Our meal in Tuscan was delicious. We all had the filet and it was cooked perfectly again a great server
  6. We flew from Newark to Rome three days before cruise. Used Rome Cabs for all our transfers with excellent results Our hotel rooms were ready when we arrived at 10 am which was a pleasant surprise. We throughly enjoyed Rome for the days prior to cruise We’re able to see our bucket list items and enjoy the city. On embarkation day we were picked up early and off to the ship. We tested using emed in our hotel room. The hardest part was holding the iPad at the correct angle and hearing the very soft spoken proctor. Check in at the ship was quick and easy. Dropped off our hand luggage and off to book Tuscan reservations and to lunch.
  7. Recently off this wonderful cruise. I have obsessively followed these boards prior to cruise so thought I would share my trip. We were 2 couples traveling , both have sailed Celebrity many times. We are retired and travelled in a 2 b cabin We are not foodies but enjoy a nice meal. We did not upgrade our drink package and we were happy with our classic package. The basic internet served our needs to email home and keep up with our local news. I will continue in comments
