This was a great cruise and Captain Tasos was fantastic! He was personable, entertaining, and informative. We would take another cruise with Celebrity just to sail with him again. The ship is just the right size for us. Smaller ships can get into smaller ports and waterways, but they lack the selection of entertainment and food. The mega ships are just too large and impersonal. We choose this cruise because it was an inside passage cruise and it left from and retuned to Seattle. This was our first cruise in many years and we were very happy with the experience. We had a balcony cabin on the port side that was in great condition and we were well taken care of by our room stewards. If we do this cruise again I'll book a starboard cabin because I found the view to be better on the starboard side. The food was great in the main dining room and the buffet. We never tried any of the specialty restaurants because the food and service was so good in the buffet and main dining room. The entertainment was very good and the activity lectures were outstanding. Brent Nixon, who gave the wildlife lectures, was the best I've ever seen, and Mary Amanda who gave the port historical presentations was also outstanding. We enjoyed this trip so much my wife wanted to go back as soon as we got home!
