We sailed on Celebrity Beyond and after…
We sailed on Celebrity Beyond and after an excursion to Delos Greece the tour operator’s ferry dropped us off about three miles from the ship. One of the other tour operators for Celebrity said we should just walk right to get back to the ship. Although the ship looked to be 3 to 4 miles away, we started out walking right and unfortunately the only way to get back to the ship was walking up a narrow, two lane highway with buses and vans wizzing by as my husband and I walked a foot wide, gravel path bordered on one side by on coming traffic and on the other side by a foot high wall that plummeted down to the coastline about 20 feet below. Each time a van or bus came by my husband and I had to wave at them to try to get them to see us and not kill us. When we returned to the ship we immediately went to the excursions desk to tell them about our terrible experience, and several other couples also came there as well having had the same experience. Selena at the excursions desk could have cared less about our horrendous experience. We were terrified. This experience came right on the heels of an excursion to Santorini, Greece the previous day, in which the tour operator ended the tour at the base of a huge hill with about a miles worth of shops to walk uphill through, in order to come either to a cable car at which point you had to wait about two hours in the blazing sun to come back to the ship or thousands of steps that wound down a mountain that I’m not sure how most of the cruise passengers were able to traverse. We chose the steps but my husband and I are relatively fit. Celebrity seemingly had no cares at all for our safety, or for anyone else’s for that matter. If you value your life, never go on a celebrity cruise. This was a very expensive cruise in honor of our 40th wedding anniversary, and it was totally ruined by Celebrity’s lack of attention to the safety of its passengers. Please run from this horrendous cruise line! Terrible experience!
