The Celestyal Journey holds true to what we know works well for our guests. We’ve never been fans of big is best, and the Celestyal Journey continues our philosophy that mid-sized ships are the perfect way to discover the incredible experiences this special region has to offer by visiting all the amazing destinations that the larger vessels can’t.

We’re in love with our new ship and we can’t wait for you to fall in love with her too. Sign up now for more news as we approach the grand unveiling where we hope you’ll be among the first to set sail with us.

The Celestyal Journey will open its fabulous doors just in time to catch the late summer sun and will include: 149 Balconies – over 28 magical Suites – 120 Junior Suites – and a stunning Penthouse Suite to journey in style. There will be a far bigger range of dining options, featuring 7 separate venues – with an amazing Chef’s Table – and 8 themed bars where we’ll expand our range of beverages, including our exclusive Signature Cocktails.

Adventures Ashore

Experience is everything, for everyone

Greece and the Eastern Med is warm and relaxed, and that’s exactly what our authentic experiences capture. Go further with more intimate group excursions that invite you to linger longer.

We never get tired of rediscovering this part of the world. And this time, you’re along for the adventure. Immerse yourself in the true heart of this land and see where your Celestyal adventure will take you.

Authentic Excursions

Our authentic experiences scratch deeper beneath the surface to take you closer to the heart of Greece. Expect the unexpected. Be ready to immerse yourself in a truly unique experience with local people, homegrown flavours, and stories passed down through the generations. You’ll leave with your own story to tell.

Experiences for just you and a few

Greece’s soul is warm and relaxed, so that’s exactly what our authentic experiences capture. They are small group excursions that invite you to linger longer.

We set aside a limited number of spaces so that you get a more personalised experience. It does mean that you need to book quickly to secure your space. Remember to reserve your spot at least two weeks before you sail.

Authentic themes to fire your imagination

Foodie Heaven

When just a taste won’t do, our authentic excursions let you indulge. We take you off the tourist trail and to the local producers, where you explore the islands through your senses. Thyme infused honey? Give it a try. Silky custard pie? Go on then. The crispiest white wine from Santorini’s oldest winery. It would be rude not to! Savour the flavours and honour the people who keep Greece the wholesome place it is to this day.

Culture Vulture

Greek islands are alive with colour, smells, sights and sounds. As we weave through the hidden cobbled streets and alleys, the sensory experiences will only become more intense. Feel history between your fingertips as you mimic ancient craftsmanship. Listen to the music and slower pace of life high up in the hills. See how the experiences move you.

Seeking Adventure

Venture off the well-trodden path and you’ll soon need equipment to help you explore. Thankfully, us Greeks don’t see that as a problem. Get kitted out with paddles, a snorkel mask, or hiking boots and you can unearth nature’s own stories. It will be just you and the purest blue waters, the wildflowers, and the ocean breeze.

Wonders of archaeology

Every step you take through ancient ruins gets you closer to what life was once like. But imagine what you’d learn if you were able to dig beneath the surface? That’s what our archaeologists are here to do. See the ancient sites through their eves and learn about the true culture of the people who called them home thousands of years ago.

Special Mobility Needs

If you are physically challenged or your mobility is impaired, at the time of booking we kindly request that you provide us with full and detailed information in connection to your disability. If we believe there might be a safety issue for you or for your traveling companion, Celestyal Cruises reserves the right to advise that the guest with health or mobility problems must have the assistance of a person who will be responsible for and take charge of all of this guest’s needs and requirements. If you or your travelling companion requires personal, individual care or supervision, this must be organized by you or your traveling companion at your cost. No Celestyal Cruises ship or staff or crew member can provide specific care or supervision to anyone, nor can we provide any form of medical care for a physical or psychiatric condition.

We have a limited number of staterooms suitable for people with disabilities or whose mobility is impaired, and not all areas of our ships are accessible to these guests or equipped for them. Guests travelling with a wheelchair should be aware that they may not be allowed to disembark in the ports when tender service is in use, for their own safety. Given these restrictions, bookings for such guests are dependent upon the availability of suitable on-board lodging. If Celestyal Cruises deems it necessary, the assistance of a fully able person capable of catering to the guest for the duration of the selected cruise may be requested to escort the guest with mobility restrictions. All costs are to be supported by the guest. Guests in wheelchairs must bring their own wheelchairs, of normal size. Celestyal Cruises only carries wheelchairs for emergencies on its vessels.

Dress Code

For your safety and comfort on-board we suggest sports or flat shoes with low heels. These types of footwear will make it easier for you to walk in the outside decks and stairwells.

On our seven-night cruises we host Gala Night and the Captain’s Cocktail in honor of our guests, and we ask that you attend in formal attire: a cocktail dress or something smart for the ladies, jacket and tie for the men.

This is why when the vessel is away from shore at a certain distance, a cellular service is activated onboard, operated by an international satellite provider and the ship’s satellite network. Please be advised that satellite cellular services are

considerably more expensive than local tariffs. Rates are set and determined solely by your cell phone carrier. Celestyal and our satellite provider have no involvement in the retail rates your carrier charges for cruise ship roaming or the billing process.
