For those seeking a vacation beyond just an ocean cruise, we’re proud to provide information about Celebrity Vacation Packages.  Celebrity Cruises is a premium cruise line and subsidiary of Royal Caribbean.  A step above the contemporary, premium cruise ships gives their passengers a glimpse of luxury at a more affordable rate.  Celebrity’s highly curated packages combine the very best of a breathtaking Celebrity cruise with an amazing land or river adventure, resulting in a more authentic, immersive vacation experience.  Spend a few days exploring the cobblestone streets of San Juan, Puerto Rico’s old town.  Live it up in one of the world’s most famous nightlife scenes of Miami’s South Beach, or enjoy a relaxing brunch at one of Fort Lauderdale’s many sidewalk cafés.  These new Celebrity City Stay Vacations don’t just give you more time in your embarkation city; they give more of everything.  Here are just a few of the many itineraries Celebrity offers.

Celebrity’s Caribbean

Beach at Curacao

Map of the Southern Caribbean

For every powder-soft, sandy beach and crystalline cove, there’s something surprising and exciting to be found in the Caribbean.  And with 33 destinations you’re sure to find it.  Cruises from 2 to 14 nights include overnight stays in Oranjestad, Aruba; Willemstad, Curaçao; Bridgetown, Barbados; and Celebrity’s new port of call, New Orleans, Louisiana, which is also a Signature Event Sailing during Mardi Gras.  Maybe you’d like to spend three nights, pre-cruise in luxury accommodations while you check out the neon-lit scene that is South Beach?  Or, how about exploring the cobblestone streets of Old Town in San Juan, Puerto Rico?  No matter your interest, the Caribbean offers something for everyone.

The Best of Bermuda

While Bermuda possesses all of the signature attributes of a tropical paradise, its decidedly British flavor makes for an interesting contrast and a unique travel experience.  Famous for its talcum-soft, pink sand beaches, Bermuda offers a variety of activities to appeal to every interest.  Explore St. George, one of the first British towns in North America and a UNESCO World Heritage site.  UNESCO World Heritage sites are historical places officially recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), on the basis of having cultural, historical, scientific or some other form of significance, and they are legally protected by international treaties.

Visit the Royal Naval Dockyard, once the base of the Royal Navy in the Western Atlantic.  You will get to spend two full nights in the King’s Wharf, home of the Bermuda National Museum, arts & craft centers, terrific shopping and a host of cozy pubs and excellent restaurants.

The Northern Highlights

Autumn in New England

Rocky coastlines, hearty food, famous explorers, and equally famous battles define New England and eastern Canada.  But this region is also synonymous with charming small towns, a kaleidoscope of autumnal color, and some of the most iconic cities on the east coast of North America.  Francophiles will delight in spending the night in Quebec City on the banks of the St. Lawrence River.  Dive into Maine’s signature dish, fresh cold-water lobster.  In Boston, you can take one of many historical tours that introduce you to some of America’s most famous patriots and from Cape Liberty, New Jersey, you can visit the greatest symbol of American freedom, the Statute of Liberty, in New York harbor.

America’s Pearl

Oahu, with Diamond Head in the background

There are not many places in the world to rival the natural beauty of Hawai’i.  Surrounded by the vast Pacific, the Hawaiian Islands are simply in a class of their own.  Sailing from Vancouver, British Columbia, or Honolulu, Oahu, Celebrity’s 10-night Hawaii cruises offer several days at sea, giving you plenty of time to experience all that your ship has to offer.  Their 11-night Hawai’i cruise departs from Honolulu, where you’ll overnight and have ample time to pay your respects at the moving USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor.  In addition, each of these cruises offers an overnight in Lahaina, Maui, where you can stroll along one its most popular stretches of coastline – Kaanapali Beach.

From Sea to Shining Sea

Cruise Ships passing through the Panama Canal

Even after 100 years, people still marvel at the engineering marvel that is the Panama Canal.  Here is your chance to do the same.  Celebrity offers five 15-night itineraries to ten destinations – both eastbound and westbound – via the Isthmus of Panama, giving you ample opportunity to enjoy all of the natural beauty along the way.  Before your cruise even begins, you can spend some time getting to know your embarkation ports of Miami or Fort Lauderdale by taking advantage of a City Stay Vacation package.  Spend 3 nights in luxury accommodations enjoying breakfast daily, escorted tours, restaurants, shopping districts, famous beaches and nightlife.

Salsa the Nights Away

Machu Picchu

With its soaring mountains, ancient sites, snaking rivers, and cosmopolitan cities, South America is a continent of diversity, both in its people and in its geography.  Offering 9 itineraries that visit 26 destinations, Celebrity will take you from crowds on Copacabana Beach in Brazil to the unrivaled beauty of the Chilean Lake District.  Take a catamaran ride from Ushuaia, Argentina, where you will see a penguin rookery.  Or, explore the ancient city of Machu Picchu – widely considered to be one of the New 7 Wonders of the World – high in the mountains of Peru.  Plus, Celebrity’s South America cruises offer 5 overnights, including the exciting city of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and a double overnight in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, during their Rio Carnival Signature Event Sailing.

Explore the Galapagos

For many, a trip to the Galapagos Islands qualifies as a once-in-a-lifetime event.  Consequently, we want you to be completely focused on the Galapagos, and not on logistics or details.  Immerse yourself in these islands, absorbing everything there is to see, learn, and do while you are there.  With that in mind, Celebrity made your vacation all-inclusive, making your trip as convenient, relaxing, and memorable as possible.

You can extend your adventure by turning your trip to the Galapagos into an all-exclusive, 15-night South American experience. It begins with a 2-night pre-cruise tour of Ecuador’s mountaintop capital of Quito.  Then, it’s on to your 7-night cruise of the world-famous Galapagos Islands, where you will see plants and wildlife that exist only there.  When your cruise comes to an end, you will spend 6 nights in Peru, where you will visit its capital, Lima; the area known as The Sacred Valley, Cuzco; and one of the most mysterious, awe-inspiring places on Earth – the city in the clouds – Machu Picchu.
