MIAMI, Nov. 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebrity Cruises' recently announced details of Celebrity's upcoming DC Chefs' Caribbean Culinary Cruise, scheduled for January 28 to February 4, 2017. This unique Caribbean getaway, featuring Celebrity Chefs Mike Isabella, Marjorie Meek-Bradley and David Guas, along with James Beard-nominated spirit authority Derek Brown, will be a special collaboration featuring luxury cruising, lavish food and beverage to please an array of palates.

Celebrity Cruises' DC Brand Ambassador, Nycci Nellis, developed and curated this unique excursion designed for cruising and food enthusiasts alike. "My concept for Celebrity's first-ever, DC Chefs Caribbean cruise was to bring together fans of our chefs who love their food and want to get to know them better, and who also enjoy uber-pampered, getaway travel. These cruise guests will enjoy a relaxing week on the high seas, getting to know and interacting with our celebrities in exotic settings. They will partake in sumptuous, private-dining, exclusive cooking classes, private beach BBQ parties and much more," says Nellis.

This cruise, a first for featured guests Isabella, Meek-Bradley, Guas and Brown, is also a chance for them to get to know their most avid fans. Nellis handpicked these celebrities not only because of their national recognition, but also because of their innate gregarious nature. The featured chefs and beverage professional are equally excited to lead classes and present decadent dining experiences, as they will spend time mingling with the cruise guests.

"This DC Chef's Cruise celebrates our brand's pledge to bring local fare and local talent aboard the world's top, premium cruise line, and continue exciting our guest's senses all over the world. Mike, Marjorie, David and Derek provide the perfect marriage of innovative cuisine, international flavors, and spirited personalities," stated Phillip Jacobs, Celebrity Cruises' East Coast Market Representative.

A limited number of staterooms are available for the January 28 to February 4, 2017 sailing of the Celebrity Reflection.
