Celebrity Millennium Mediterranean Cruise Review

We sailed from Marseille on a Mediterranean cruise with Celebrity, Millennium. A meeting in Dublin gave us miss the first day of the cruise from Barcelona, ??but it was also where the cruise ended, we knew we would see anyway. Marseille ? taxi 40 ?. Getting in the rain, so tired that we slept through the day instead decided a visit to Marseille Provence or nearby.

Table companions included a pair of northIreland, a couple from Holland Park in London and another from Miami. Traveling with my best friend was a good one, as we moved around the table at night to talk with others at the table.

Foods. The first night I was disappointed with the food. Celebrity has a good reputation for food, which I expected more. My cruise experience is not very wide at this point, but I expected it to be better than Holland America, and it was not. On our first official night there were only 6 ofWe were awarded instead of 8, and the food. After a long day of sightseeing, we opted for the buffet dinner that is good and satisfying but not memorable by any stretch of the imagination. Lunch on board were the usual salads, hot dishes, burgers and pizza, the popular ice cream bar.

Spa: The first day on board we signed up for everything for our day at the beach ? classes, lectures and a pedicure. E 'was excellent. However, a day at the beach, the spa appointment onlywas at 8:00, and that must soon begin a nap (oh, the luxury-cruise) in late morning to recover. Our day at the beach was full of events, pedicures, shopping, a conference of art at auction, what Pink Ribbon, lunch, spa classes, lectures and more history. We had many things on our agenda, things that we lost the encounter Cruise Critic and a few others too. Easy to do too much.

Our ports of Villefranche, Nice was attractive, the door with his typicalCosta Azzurra restaurant scene on the promenade with their shutters in the wind ocher and saffron-colored houses extends to the citadel hill and gardens. The charming town of Villefranche easily us busy for a week, but fellow travelers were amazed by the beautiful mountain village of Eze, and the ease of the train to Monaco or Nice and Cannes. In half an hour, and only a few euros, are in the center of Cannes and Monaco.

For Rome, ourPort of Civitavecchia, was it worth it to lose Sunday. The train to Rome is about an hour and a half from here, but often for trains on Sunday (check Trent Italia before departure), we have to wait an hour for the train, and arrive in Rome late in our appointment Villa Borghese, Rome's leading collection of masterpieces, including works is by Titian, Caravaggio and Raphael .. In any case, was a friend of the situation, our path to the fabulous art collection discussionthat late hour, and also free. It was raining when we went, one reason to stay in the cafeteria of the museum and have an extra charge (although typical of Rome) for lunch before our way to St. Peter. We both had visited before, so ours was a short visit to some of the things that we had lost on other occasions OOGLE.

Then take a taxi to the train station where we had to arrive, panting, just in time for our train back to port. A misunderstanding meant that we did notTickets were punished for not having a ticket when boarding, but for the whole trip was worth the money.

Mykonos We docked at 1:00 and took the shuttle into the city for $ 10 each. We walked around the harbor, especially browsing in shops, but also the local church and the Catholic Church, the windmills, Little Venice to see and purple on foot the narrow streets with whitewashed houses, blue doors Aegean and bougainvillea. Back on board, the Greek dancer was brought on board the more special atmosphere. We made a trip to the floor.

Ephesus ? the highlight of the journey church. The 715Am An unusually early for a day trip is to include the House of Mary in Ephesus, a museum and St. John. Mary's home was a solemn and peaceful day. Fresh morning air smelled what I think were laurel trees, it was wonderful. The tour of Ephesus, but was in the hot sun (in May), but it was the highlight of our> Cruise. E 'was even more impressive ? for men latrine, a library, an amphitheater and much more. The museum has many statues and mosaics from the environment. Church of St. John was interesting. I have not for the carpet store at the end we were shown care. Providers in all the shops were too aggressive.

A lazy day at sea followed, including lectures, art auctions, theater, movies and more. Palermo. My choice was to give a miss, and none of the shore excursions seemed interesting. We havetheir pay during the siesta investigate if the shops were closed. It was a mistake ? I've never seen a dirty, unfriendly city. We went to the Cathedral and the Opera House. I had to stay on board.

Barcelona: Our cruise ended in Barcelona. We chose a late departure from the ship and took a taxi to the station. We could store our luggage in lockers, and then a hop on hop off tour of the city right outside the station. The train for theAirport was easy and inexpensive and easy to walk to the terminals. The RENFE train leaves every 30 minutes from the airport to downtown Barcelona. Takes about 25 minutes. You can take the train from Estacio de Franca, Passeig de Gracia, or Barcelona Sants take (otherwise known as Sants Estacion) The name of the station for the airport Aeropuerto.
