Everything you need to know about the 14-Night Antarctica Cruise with Celebrity Cruises!

Hello everyone! I recently went on the 14-Night Antarctica Cruise from Celebrity Cruises—on-board the Celebrity Eclipse—so this video is all about my experience on the cruise (Feb. 3-17, 2024). This adventure from Celebrity Cruises is a little different than your photography-tailored expedition-style cruise so I’ve outlined some of these differences as well. I had a great time on the Celebrity Eclipse so I’ll be sharing my thoughts from a photographer’s point of view. If you’re not a photographer though, don’t let that stop you from watching the video, as I offer lots of information that will be useful for everyone. Have you gone to the Antarctic on a cruise ship before? What was your experience like? Let me know in the comments below! If I missed something in the video and you still have questions, let me know in the comments as well. Be sure to watch my other YouTube videos on the excursions that I went on, while on this cruise (coming soon). I'll also have all of this information with my photos on my blog at https://smaku.com. Check out the Table of Contents if you want to skip to certain sections of the video. The iPhone holder I was using on my camera is no longer available unfortunately. But there are similar ones out there if you search around.
