Celestyal Crystal, Mediterranean

Christmas and New Year cruise from Athens, calling at Rhodes, Limassol, Crete, Santorini, Cairo, Istanbul, Kusadasi for Ephesus, Izmir, Thessaloniki, and best of all Haifa… spending Christmas Eve visiting Jerusalem was the highlight for me. The ship is old but beautiful, a proper ship not a floating holiday camp. Those who prefer all the glitz probably wouldn’t like her, but if comfortable small ships appeal you’ll love her. The food was good, the crew were great, and the price was incredibly good value. A couple of excursions were cancelled due to insufficient take-up, but that wasn’t any of the main ones. Only two full sea days so no time to get bored. I really enjoyed this trip and would love to do it again.
