Thank you for the video! I'll be on a 7 day best of Greece and turkey cruise on the infinity next August, 2025 in aqua class.

Great video! We sailed on the Infinity this past summer from Piraeus. We found the ship a bit dated but enjoyed ourselves. The plusses were the ports for the most part, as smaller ships get into those cool places vs the bigger ones which usually stick to the cities. Our itinerary featured Mykonos, Santorini, Thessaloniki, Kavala and Kusadasi. The latter 2 were boring with the exception of "Ephesus" which was amazing. The entertainment was stale at best... seems like a 10 song playlist and they used this all day and everywhere... Silent Disco was fun, Bingo actually fun minus the poor comedy. As of now I rank Celebrity number 3 behind NCL and Princess for about the same itinerary.

Have you tried one of the newer Celebrity Edge class ships?

[@ejatravels]

@@jamesandrob no not yet. Heard they are much better

[@jamesandrob]

@@ejatravels It is definitely different! We loved the Apex

great ship no worries

Thanks for the great tour. I find it so funny that so many people have a fit about a shower curtain and no USB ports. Who cares if it a shower curtain or a glass door as long as it keeps the water in the shower and you get clean, what is the difference? Also, how old is old, 20 yrs, 10 years 5 years, 2 years? If it is clean, the crew are friendly and the port stops are great, what is the difference if it is 20 yrs old and doesn't have a gazillion USB ports and electrical sockets. I prefer to be in the moment rather then constantly using electronics! Are you there to play with your phone and take a shower with a glass door or are 😁😄😁 folks there to experience the country and places you are going to stop off? Old ships are smaller and have more charm then 90% of the new ships that are floating cities.

[@jamesandrob]

I agree about the charm of older ships. Everyone had different tastes and needs which is great because there are ships to suit everyone!

Do you guys ever get motion sickness? I'm so curious to try a cruise but worried I'll be sick the whole time. I'll also have to do a solo cruise, no friends want to join me so if I do a cruise will probably be a ncl solo studio option.

[@jamesandrob]

No but if we hear the seas are going to be a little rough, we will take a sea sick pill as a precaution. The tech on ships are amazing to keep them smooth. You should definitely give a cruise a go. They are very social and a great way to see many places.

I always cruise alone. I love it. I can meet people if I want, but I have my own schedule and my own space. I always sail on Celebrity and its wonderful.

[@brian_wanderlust]

@@RunTravelSleepRepeat I'm definitely going to give it a try, possibly this December :)

[@jamesandrob]

@@RunTravelSleepRepeat I've not been brave enough to cruise alone yet! But its on the horizon

[@rsylvester65]

Was this cruise on the 7th October to 17th October 2024

Hope you had a great time ?
