We wanted to see Ireland and Norway and thought the cruise was a fabulous way to do both as it departed from Dublin!
The ship is beautiful and the crew were very pleasant and provided quick service! We were treated so well!
Ray and his team were excellent servers at the main restaurant. They were fun, fast, efficient and met all our needs. Great job! Pleasure!

We wish to provide some feedback of our experience with Celebrity X Silhouette cruise, Southampton – Norway Fjords, April 30th – May 7th.
Some general points picked up on, whilst on-board where:
• No ships whistle was sounded on departure in Southampton? This was most disappointing.
• Ships crew barging past and in front of us and fellow guests whilst walking around the ...
After spending 4 wonderful days in London at the Grosvenor Hotel, we made the trip from London and back to Heathrow via National Express buses and both trips were very punctual and an easy taxi ride to the cruise ship pier. The buses were very clean with wi fi and the driver assisted with the luggage.
We had a Sky Suite and dining was in Luminae. The menus (breakfast, dinner and lunch on sea ...
Everything was fantastic. The ports of call were fantastic. I liked all of them very much, however Bergen was quite rainy and cold. That made it a little difficult to get out and find our way around very easily. Flam and Geiranger were a little more remote and rugged. Alesund and Stavinger were bigger towns than I expected. All in all it was truly the trip of a lifetime for my husband and I. ...
The Eclipse is a beautiful ship. There was a very noticeable engine vibration on all decks aft which was especially bothersome while dining. Veranda stateroom on deck 7 was clean and comfortable. Cabin steward was very helpful. The food in MDR was very good. First time in a long time that I ordered a medium rare steak and it was actually medium rare. They could use a thicker cut of steak in ...

This was our first visit to the Norwegian Fjords, we took all weather cloths being May, however what a week blue skies and sunshine all the way, which helped make the ...
The unusually fantastic weather made this Fjords cruise a real treat. The area is stunningly beautiful and should be on everyone's bucket list.
The Eclipse is getting on a bit long in the tooth now but still looks fresh, we were on her about five years ago and apart from the new Luminae restaurant she still looks the same. Celebrity train their people well and the service was as as good as ever ...
This was our 2nd time on Celebrity - first time on the Eclipse and Solstice class ships. Here are my thoughts by area -
Embarkation - we arrived at the Southampton port around 1:30pm - easy check-in and we were on the boat within 20 minutes or so - one of the quickest check ins we have ever had.
Ship - Grade A+
We were very impressed with the ship - clean, great condition, well laid out, ...
We chose this cruise for the destination and Celebrity Eclipse as I have travelled on her before and wanted my husband to see her......he was not disappointed!!
Cruise director John Grantham would get my award for for best staff member. What an entertaining man he is. Never to busy to chat and make you feel like everything was being done just for you.
Celebritys own shore excursions are ...
