I Took a Cruise That Visited 2 Ports a Day!
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator details an experience aboard the Celestial Olympia, a Greek cruise line ship originally built for Royal Caribbean in the early 1980s. The itinerary featured a unique structure of visiting two ports per day, which required early morning embarkation and excursions. The creator notes that the cruise was all-inclusive, covering food, drinks, and certain excursions, which provided significant value despite the ship being an older vessel. Observations regarding the ship include its lack of a traditional main theater, unique deck layouts with varying ceiling heights, and a vibrating funnel bar. The creator describes the dining experience as flexible with no set times, noting that the food quality was high with various dietary options. During port visits in locations such as Mykonos, Ephesus, and Santorini, the creator discusses local observations, including the presence of cats in Mykonos and the ethical concerns regarding donkeys in Santorini. The video concludes with the creator reflecting on the comfort of the cruise and the organizational efficiency of the Celestial cruise line.
