On a Celebrity Cruise - Get me out of here!!!
On Apex. Nice ship but unless you gamble or want to buy watches or handbags there’s nothing to do. Shambles of a company. Here’s the highlights - call centre tell us water is free. It’s not. They charge $4 a bottle. It’s hot 30C. - Call centre tells you to buy a visa for Egypt. Turns out the ship does that for you. $50 wasted. - Drinks package at $107 per person per day. Or $36 for water, coffee and soft drinks per person per day. - Wifi $400 per device. - Laundry $140 - Tour of Jerusalem you meet at 7am then sit on ship over 2.5 hours to get on the bus. Tour guide is awful. Bus 32C and tour guide / driver try to sell you water. Other half ended up being sick at a petrol station due to heat in bus. No lunch until 3:30pm. - Tour of Giza 30 minutes at pyramids as we don’t have time to waste followed by a 45 minutes stop at a souvenir shop. Tour guide selling 30 minutes camel rides that aren’t on itinerary. - Tour of Ephesus was more a tour of souvenir shops while being stalked by a photographer who wanted $4 a photo. - Staff on ship are nice but no way this is worth the money. Wish I’d never booked it. - Complaint made to Guest Relations. They arranged dinner and drinks at one of their exclusive restaurants as an apology. Booked us in for 18:30. Took order 18:50 then told us drinks only available in upstairs bar from 5pm to 7pm. Left without ordering meal. - Honestly save your money and book with a different company. So far we’ve had a refund for the Jerusalem tour and $50 back for the Egypt visas.
