Hello! Car rental for 5 days was around 400 to 500 SGD, accommodation was around 150 SGD per night, food was around 20 SGD per pax per meal but most hotels cover breakfast so we ate a lot for breakfast, had snacks for lunch and basically only spent on dinner :P
Nice job, me and my wife are doing exactly that, except starting at Varenna after the train up from Milan. Was it easy to get ferry tickets.? Were the ferries crowded.?
Hello! It’s easy to get ferry tickets on Lake Como and the ferries are generally fully seated but not crowded at all! But be sure to get into the ferry queue earlier if you want to get good seats 😆 hope you have lots of fun!!
Hello! It’s colder in the early mornings and late evenings but in the afternoons when the sun is out and about it’s actually not very cold 😅 you could probably get by the afternoons with a T-shirt and jeans
Hello! I didn’t pay 6.9k/night cos I had my wedding at the hotel and they gave me a complimentary bridal suite but upgraded it to the presidential suite cos the bridal suite was under renovation, so I was really lucky! 😆
hi jody! thank you for the awesome content and coverage! :) i would like to enquire how many days before my sail date will I be able to purchase the unlimited dining package?
@@jodyzzt oh no! my sailing date is in 45 days time, I only able to see chope + 1 speciality dining option HAHAHA! have never received any email from royal carribean still about the update. thanks for the information btw :)
Hey Jody!! I chanced upon your vlog when I was checking out the royal carribean cruise!! Just wanted to tell you that I really like your personality in all your videos, so happy and jovial. Anyway! Your mask is really nice! Where did you get it from!
Awww thank you for your kind words!! I appreciate it 🥰 I got my masks from Bewa.SG on Shopee, you can find them @bewafashion on IG too! I love their masks it’s super comfy and thick enough to make me feel protected but yet still breathable. Hope it helps!!
Hi! We just had to drag our luggage into our room on the first day and drag it out on the last day with us when we leave the ship, other than that it’s just in the room so no need to bring it around! 😂
Thank you for sharing your experiences. What time must you disembark on the last day? I saw that you had breakfast before doing so. I assume that wasn't before 8am?
Hello! If I remember correctly my disembark time was 9.30 am, the timing will be automatically assigned to you the day before, and it ranges from 8 to 12 if I remember correctly 🙂
Hi Jody! it's awesome to see the cruise ship from a guest perspective, something I still haven't had the chance to do... Thank you for that and I welcome you and everybody to check my life as crew member in my channel <3
Awesome Vlog! Thanks for all the informative advice and tips! Would also like to ask if the Wifi is free onboard and how long does the checkout procedure take on the last day, like is there a need to take ART test again before you can step into Singapore?
Thank you!! 🙂 To book activities on the royal app you can use the free wifi onboard the ship, but to surf external websites / social media etc. you have to pay for additional wifi. Checkout process was super fast I think it took like 15 mins haha there wasn’t much to do, just have to return the tags etc., no need to take ART again. Hope it helps! 🙂
Wow That was a Wonderful vlog i really liked the view waterfall from the restaurant I didn't know there was a restaurant with a view like that in JEWEL loved it ❤🤩🤍😇
hi Jody!! may I ask if denim shorts are allowed in the specialty restaurants? I've also purchased the UDP but saw the dress code says no shorts and I'm not sure if it applies to denim shorts that girls normally wear
Hello! I think it doesnt matter haha I have seen people wear exercise wear into Jamie's Italian and they were not rejected, so I think it should be fine. But with that said, Jamie's Italian & Izuki seem more casual compared to the other restaurants, so I would still suggest NOT to wear denim shorts into the other restaurants. Hope you have fun!
Thanks a lot for the wonderful video with lot of information 👌👌👌Is there any idea about shopping onboard, I could see 60% discount on jewellery . Is it worth to buy jewellery from ship???
Hello! 🙂 I’m not super interested in jewellery so I didn’t pay much attention, but I do notice that they have a wide range of jewellery available especially coloured gemstones. You don’t have to pay GST onboard so I guess it might be cheaper? Hope it helps! 🙂
Hello! I didn't try streaming from my own device, we spent most of our time outside so we didn't watch much TV haha but they do have a number of free shows on TV - there were documentaries, movies, news channels and also kids channels etc. 🙂
Hi Jody, after trying the food at most of the restaurants, do you think it is worth paying for unlimited dining or the usual free dining at the MDR will suffice? Going for my cruise in November
Hello Donald! Unfortunately we did not try out the food at MDR cos we ate all our meals at the specialty restaurants so I won't be able to answer your question :(
@@marnelebrada6736 Hello Marnel! Food is complimentary onboard but you have to pay if you want to dine at specialty restaurants 🙂 I bought the unlimited dining package so I ate most of my meals at the specialty restaurants
Hello! I bought it from taobao: item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=642906063928 Its quite sturdy, extends up to 2m and it’s only SGD 6 (not including shipping) so it’s really value for money! But one disadvantage is that it’s 66cm long even when not extended, so I couldn’t keep it in my bagpack / small luggage haha so I had to lug it around separately.
The vlog was great 😊😊 and looking forward to Singapore vlogs and by the way, the next time you go on a cruise if you build a good community in youtube you can have influencer offers 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Hmm unfortunately I can't recall the exact name of the WiFi onboard the cruise, but I think it's the one with the word 'guest' in its name. I think you can't book activities while waiting for the ART test results (I didnt try) because you'll be too far away from the ship to connect to its WiFi, but no harm trying when you're there
Hello! There is free restricted Wifi onboard, and you can only use it to access the Royal app to book your cruise activities. I did not buy the additional internet package because I didn't think it was necessary - our schedule was packed everyday and there was not a single boring moment where I felt like I needed to access the internet for anything else haha
Thank you! 😊 Dining at specialty restaurants are not included in the ticket price, we had to buy the unlimited dining package (we paid around 340 for 2 pax for 5D4N) to dine free flow at the specialty restaurants. I highly recommend the unlimited dining package especially if you want to try more than 1 of the specialty restaurants
Hi, Liked your blog, looks you enjoyed a lot. Waiting for your part 2 also. Did you booked the shows and bumper cars all in advance? Did you booked through royal app or at customer service counter? It seems 1hour 30 min. you took from ART to boarding the cruise? Right? Were the Queue so big? Thanks, Punita
Thanks for watching!! 🙂 Some shows need to be reserved on the app, so you need to check the app beforehand. Shows that need to be reserved will have a “Reserve” button in the app, others will just show a “Add to calendar” button. For the shows that cannot be reserved, you have to arrive earlier to secure seats. Bumper cars need to be booked on the app. You can make your bookings once you get onboard and connect to the ship’s WiFi. It’s faster to book everything at the Guest Services counter, but if there’s a queue then I suggest you try and book some shows / meals on the app first while waiting in line. Yes from the time I started queuing for ART to boarding it took around 1.5hr cos we had to queue to take our ART, wait around 20 mins for the test results and also wait for our turn to board the ship. Hope it helps!
