Witness a celestial spectacle aboard the luxurious Celebrity Apex

A ship like no other

From the moment you step aboard Celebrity Apex, you’re embraced by effortless sophistication. Whether you’re enjoying the Infinite Veranda of your Edge Stateroom or feeling the ocean breeze on the Magic Carpet—a floating platform suspended over the sea—every moment onboard connects you to the world beyond the ship.

Dine on bold, globally inspired cuisine with menus curated by world-class chefs. From Eden, where theatrical dining meets inventive flavours, to bespoke cocktails enjoyed under the stars at the Rooftop Garden, each meal becomes an occasion. And for those who want exclusivity, The Retreat offers suite guests their own private sanctuary, complete with a sundeck, lounge, and impeccable service.

European elegance

This voyage will take you through the Mediterranean’s cultural and scenic gems. Explore the historic charm of Portugal, with its cobblestoned streets and maritime heritage before feeling fiery passion of Spain as you explore the art-filled streets of its grand cities to the golden beaches of the Balearic Islands.

Along the way, every port reveals something unique—whether it’s buzzing markets, majestic architecture, or sun-drenched vineyards. Each stop invites you to immerse yourself in moments that feel far removed from the hum of daily life, giving you the freedom to explore at your own pace.

The Solar Eclipse

But this isn’t just a trip to some of the world’s most iconic destinations. The crowning moment of this cruise takes place at sea, away from the crowds. You’ll be on deck, surrounded by the vast expanse of the ocean, as the moon moves across the sun, creating a total solar eclipse. This cosmic event is unparalleled in its beauty and magnitude, an unforgettable spectacle that you’ll have front-row seats to.

River cruising has a wonderful way of slowing the pace of travel, allowing you to truly immerse yourself in a destination rather than simply passing through it. That couldn't have been more true for our Head Office colleague, Janet Whitingham, who recently returned from Riviera Travel's ‘Highlights of the Douro Valley & Salamanca’ itinerary on board MS Riviera Rose. Sailing through one of Europe's oldest wine regions, Janet discovered a journey that combines spectacular scenery, charming riverside towns, exceptional food and wine, and fascinating history - all while unpacking only once.
