MustBCruzn Posted November 23, 2015 #2 Share Posted November 23, 2015 By far my favorite Celebrity cruise was our recent (departed Sept 3, 2015) 11-night trip on the Silhouette from Amsterdam to Rome. Not only were all of the ports fabulous, but the ship and service were incredible. To make a wonderful trip even better, we had the best roll call EVER. Tons of private tours organized, very friendly folks--over 3500 posts! Hands down the best ever. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcclfanbp Posted November 23, 2015 #3 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Anyone we happen to be on!! :D Our most memorable so far, however, are: - Our very 1st cruise in 1995 (RC), - Western (RC) & Eastern Mediterranean (Celebrity) cruises, and - South Pacific (RC) Two "anticipated" memorable cruises are B2B Asian itineraries in Jan. 2016 on Celebrity. Those will be our favorite at that moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted November 23, 2015 #4 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Our first and most memorable was on Mercury..the ideal cruise ship! and then many others after that on M and S class to E / W Med, Carib, Hawaii, Canada / New Eng, Inside Passage., Mex Riviera, canal.....etc Then came the canned music, loud djs, focus on drinking, amenities cutbacks, staff hawking packages, loud pool games., scratchy towels, ..and Royal C influence thru several CEOs... still enjoying our cruises but not in the same way as before... .thankful for BLU, Ensemble Lounge, aft bar, Solarium, Relaxation Room and the spa! and M Kors store.....

tn1728 Posted November 23, 2015 #6 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Summit through the Panama Canal was amazing, but I have enjoyed all of my cruises-spending time with family members made them all special. Theresa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickT Posted November 23, 2015 #7 Share Posted November 23, 2015 13 day Adriatic on the Silhouette a few years ago. I've been fortunate enough to do a few Med cruises so perhaps it was the smaller, off the beaten track ports we visited (Koper, Revenna, Split, Kotor, Bari) that made it a bit more memorable than some others.

Rare cwtravel Posted November 23, 2015 #8 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Auckland to Sydney on the Solstice in March, 2014 with the eastern Med & Israel on the Silhouette in October, 2015 a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunshine nana Posted November 23, 2015 #9 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Our first Celebrity Cruise. We booked Celebrity because our favorite up until then (2012) was Princess and they dropped Istanbul for no reason after final payment, but several weeks before embarkation the year before, so it was not weather or unrest etc. We loved Silly, we had an S1 with the wrap around aft balcony and a wonderful butler. We were spoiled. Since then, our Celebrity cruises have been nice, but we never had another good butler even in a CS and Blu on the M-class is not nearly as nice. We really like having traditional early seating in the MDR and have decided for a short cruise, we don't need a suite or even AQ. All in all, we like Celebrity a lot and have also gone back to Princess mini-suites if the itinerary is right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chemmo Posted November 23, 2015 #10 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Soooo hard to choose... Our first Asian cruise on Rhapsody of the Seas, how can you leave that out? Sailing in and out of Venice or Valletta or mooring in the amazing Santorini. Hard to separate destinations and cruise experience. Overall I guess it would be Hawaii to Sydney. Land vacations both ends of the cruise, superb experiences on the Solstice during the cruise, the initial introduction of Michael's Club. Making friends we have kept in touch with and meeting again next year. Memories, cruise memories, just priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ghstudio Posted November 23, 2015 #11 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Xpedition.....by far the best cruise we've ever taken (admittedly, I am an animal lover). It's not the most elegant, not the best food, not the most luxurious....but it is just such an outstanding experience that it ranks #1 on my list.

TN Vol Fan Posted November 23, 2015 #12 Share Posted November 23, 2015 We did a fabulous B2B on the Costellation- 28 days in the Baltics, around The British Isles and up to the Norwegian fiords. This was back in2006 and we had never spent that long on a ship. It set us up for wanting to take longer cruises all the time. We also had a wonderful trip on the Millennium in 2013 from Hong Kong to Shanghai with stops in Taiwan, South Korea and Japan. Very exotic for us. Seems like we like the M ships style and destinations. We do like the S ships as well but we generally take them in the Caribbean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeaannie55 Posted November 23, 2015 #16 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Our first Celebrity cruise on The Infinity through the Panama Canal in 2012. Lovely staff, met some lovely people and had the time of our lives. Going on our 3rd cruise with X in February, it will be different with all the changes but I am sure we will have a fantastic time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redtravel Posted November 23, 2015 #19 Share Posted November 23, 2015 For years, my favorite was Century cruise to Norway. After my last cruise on the Silhouette, ,my favorite is the Holyland cruise. It was fabulous. Great ship and a terrific staff made it very special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By far our favorite Celebrity cruise out of 13 cruises. I guess Antartica would come in 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterm Posted November 23, 2015 #21 Share Posted November 23, 2015 2008 - CELEBRITY INFINITY - Repo from Chile to Ft. Lauderdale with 2 highlights: Leaving the ship in Arica for a 3 day excursion to Machu Picchu and then going through the Panama Canal. This cruise had also the best entertainment of all our cruises.

Hobbsey Posted November 23, 2015 #22 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Celebrity Century, Oct 1998 - Our Honeymoon cruise. Se had booked a Cat 2 Minisuite and got a complimentary upgrade to a sky suite, one of those at the top of the ship with the gigantic balconies. This was my wife's first cruise. We leave on her 21st next January on Constellation. That Century cruise (Western Caribbean) remains in our top 3 all time and #1 on Celebrity.

I will have to say my must favorite cruises are in this order. 1) Eastern Mediterranean 2) Cruise out of Singapore to Indonesia. 3) Canary Islands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SusieV Posted November 24, 2015 #24 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Two, for different reasons. My first Celebrity cruise in 2005 on Summit was amazing because it was before a lot of the cuts. The butterfly service and food in Normandie was amazing and we had a live harpist playing Phantom of the Opera, my favourite musical. That hasn't been around for a long time. I also loved my first cruise on Silhouette because I love the variety of specialty restaurants. I prefer the S class ships because of all the choices of things to do. If I could, I'd always cruise Reflection or Silhouette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted November 24, 2015 #25 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Zenith had seen "better days" but our last time on her was so much fun! A great passenger base and some of the best food we've ever had in the MDR on any ship made up for everything else. Always on our Favorite Past Cruises List! :D LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
