The Horizon is closer than you think, and just what you deserve. Celebrity Horizon exemplifies grace in water and elegance inside. Part of the original class of the Celebrity family, this cruise ship was introduced on May 26, 1990. The 46,000-ton Celebrity Horizon sails to destinations to the Caribbean and the island of Bermuda. You deserve a true departureSM with Celebrity.
The activities you?ll find on Celebrity Horizon vary from the intellectually stimulating to the physically invigorating. The Enrichment Programs are very popular with the guests, and there?s no doubt why. Celebrity passengers delight in learning more about the world around them. Attend a lecture on world politics, regional wildlife, painting, finance, history?information that will enlighten and entertain. Take a wine tasting class and learn how to distinguish the differences between merlot, burgundy, cabernet, and more (without having to read the bottle). Learn skills needed to play a great game of Bridge or even computer skills like Powerpoint or digital photography manipulation. For more active diversions, the fitness center onboard has machines and instructors that will insure you don?t miss a beat in your health routine. Of course, you can just run a lap or two around the deck and catch some fresh sea air. To cool down and relax, spend some time in the award-winning AquaSpa onboard or take a dip in the pool.
Although Celebrity Horizon has no rooms with balconies, that doesn?t mean the rooms lack for elegance and style. Experience the 172 sq foot Interior cabin or the 172 sq foot Oceanview; both are identical in layout, but the oceanview has a nice-sized window as well. Each has two twin beds that can be converted into a queen. Reserve an oceanview concierge class and you?ll receive extra amenities such as welcome champagne, a daily fruit selection, plush bathrobes, and more. If you select one of the spacious Horizon suites, you?ll not only be afforded 270 sq feet of interior space, but also butler service and special amenities to make your stay even more pleasant. The Celebrity suite is the ultimate cabin onboard Celebrity Horizon, and its 340 sq feet have a mini-bar, a private bathroom w/ tub, as well as Celebrity indulgences like priority check in and check out.
