REVIEW: Fabulous Japan on Celebrity Millennium - October 2017

JAPAN ON CELEBRITY MILLENNIUM

Finally we can present you the first part of our travelogue about our cruise to Japan, South Korea and China.

It certainly ranks among the top three of our cruises. Ultramodern cities, 1000 year old temples - what a mix...

Sit back, relax, click on the link and travel to beautiful Japan with us:

Mr. Nice,

Thanks for posting. :)

Thank you so much for this review and the photos. The trip is the last one on our bucket list. Your photos are lovely and have given us a great insight into what we would experience.

But it should work :confused:

Love this report. Thank you. Japan is one of my favorite countries and I love their food.

Thank you so much! A very interesting report and the most beautiful pictures! Can't wait to our trip to Japan in June!

Wow, your photos are fantastic! I have visited Japan twice, on cruise ships, and recognise lots of the places you visited. But my photos are dull in comparison to yours. You have really caught the essence of Japan. Lovely, thank you for posting.

Thanks for your wonderful post. Each of your Blogs get better and better, if that is possible.

Was wondering when you booked with triplelights for the tours that had a mini-bus, did you book the vehicle separately from the guide or was the guide able to arrange. Many of the locations I looked at offer the Bus or Car with non-English speaking driver.

Just saw your beautiful photos Was your cabin on the starboard side? We are doing the September crossing and booked portside cabin as we were told we would get more sun

Outstanding review, thank you so much for posting.

Wow! This is fantastic! Thank you so much for this timely post and your blog. Let alone the pictures! We are now excited about our choice. We have a courtesy hold on a sailing but we were a little hesitant. Not anymore! Thank you.

Thanks so much for your review and fabulous pictures. We leave for Shanghai on 28 March and embark on Millie on 1 April for China, Korea and Japan cruise. Your pictures are really making more excited. 😊😃

I was so excited to see another one of your reviews! We went to Japan in September; your photos brought back great memories and have me wanting to go back already! Thank you for posting!

Oliver, great to see another richly-detailed review from you.

I have bookmarked it to read at my leisure and page 1 has me looking forward to more.

Kudos as always!

That was the most amazing review! Looking forward to part two.

Kochi from Triplelights had originally planned to use his private car. Not long before the cruise there was a change in regulations prohibiting tour guides to use their own car. So he rented a car and did not ask us to pay for it.

The tour to Kyoto was organized by our friend Kate. However, as much as I know "Tours by Locals" guide Ken took care of making arrangements for the car. We paid that part at the end of the tour in cash. So it was all pretty convenient and easy.

Thank you!

Yes, our stateroom (8038) was on the starboard side. However, I could not even tell you which side got more sun - really can´t remember noticing any difference. Plus, this cruise was so port intensive, we haven´t really spent much time in our stateroom.

Thanks so much for your review and fabulous pictures. We leave for Shanghai on 28 March and embark on Millie on 1 April for China, Korea and Japan cruise. Your pictures are really making more excited. 😊😃

Thank you!

Then we will leave the Millie the day you embark.

Doing the cruise 03/18 :D:D

Thank you to all of you taking your time to comment and thank you for your kind words!

It really was a great cruise!!!

I hope to post more about it soon...

Oliver

Thank you!

Oliver, Too bad we won’t have a chance meet. You are an amazing photographer. I love taking pictures but mine don’t hold a candle to yours. Enjoy your cruise. I was a bit worried about the old girl, and also traveling in Asia, as it is our first time for both, but your blog and many other pictures I’m seeing put my mind at ease. Thanks again and Happy sailing. Laura

Thank you for posting this incredible report. I have just added this experience to my bucket list. :cool:

We are so glad be put Japan on people´s bucket lists - and we are very sure it will not disappoint!

It is an increadable country. Very clean and safe and full of culture and warm hearted friendliness.

We liked it so much that we booked another cruise to Japan for April 2019 - Cherry Blossom time.

Unfortunately Celebrity does not offer an itinerary much different to the one we just did. So - although still being very satisfied with Celebrity - we booked with HAL who offer a cruise with different ports.
