Cruise line rolls out upscale world tours
Celebrity Cruises this month will roll out "Celebrity’s World Tour 2014-15," a series of luxury vacations to each of the seven continents of the world.
The trips will offer more ports of call, more overnight stays, and "modern luxury style, design, cuisine and entertainment," the line said. Celebrity will begin accepting bookings over the next four weeks.
In Africa, for example, Celebrity Silhouette’s 14-night Holy Land voyage will depart from Rome (Civitavecchia) and stop in Alexandria, Egypt; Jerusalem (Ashdod) and Haifa, Israel: Ephesus (Kusadasi), Turkey; Athens (Piraeus), Greece; Catania, Sicily, Italy; and Naples/Capri, Italy.
In Asia, Celebrity Millennium’s 14-night itineraries will travel from Singapore to Bangkok, Thailand; Ho Chi Minh City (Phu My), Vietnam; Hue/Danang ( Chan May ), Vietnam; Hanoi (Halong Bay), Vietnam; and Hong Kong, China.
The trips also include "Celebrity Exclusives," unique land adventures not available anywhere else.
These will feature personalized experiences for individuals or small parties of no more than 15 guests to events like a VIP hospitality package at the 2014 British Open Golf Tournament, an overnight journey to Moscow by high-speed train, a Ferrari ride through the hills of Rome, a private yacht in the waters off Mykonos, or a catamaran sail in the Finnish archipelago.
