There are better hotels in Benidorm than this,I went recently and didn’t like it. That’s as much as I will say as don’t want to slag the place of but I won’t ever be back.
Bus tours sre crap. Inevitably there are people on the bus who don't respect other people's time. You're often sitting on the bus waiting for some people to return LATE from the stop attraction. This either makes the tour longer or subsequent stops shorter, taking away from the experience.
Oh that doesn't sound good at all! Lucky for us with the many bus tours that we've been on, this hasn't been our experience, hopefully yours was a one-off!
You will have a great time! From what we remember, most of the tours from Royal have you returning via the cable car or the donkey trail; even the one we chose, which clearly stated coach transfer from/to the port, made us use the cable car.
Watching and enjoying so thank you! The chemistry between you and humour works well impressive cinematography and feels slick and professional could be on the BBC or CH4 I recon.
Love this....the way you two interact is great and I really enjoy watching your "experience" rather than another standard ship / cabin / dining / port review. Curious... what are your thoughts on the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 ? Looking forward to the next episode
Hey! Thank you so much for watching, and we're super glad that you like the format of our videos! (feedback like this makes us want to make more!) This was the first trip we used the DJI camera, and I'm seriously impressed by it! In fact, I'm considering not taking the larger camera and lenses on our next cruise as I was really blown away by how good the footage came out. It's an easy recommendation! - Ant x
Very helpful and enjoyable watch both! I will have to check out costal kitchen looks fab. Oops,just checked as I’m a pleb only balcony cabin no suite so no costal…
There are plenty great dining options on Anthem other than CK. Chops, Jamie’s and Izumi coming up in future videos. Glad you’re enjoying and thanks so much for letting us know!
I just found your channel and actually love the banter back and forth, so I am subscribing. I've gotten the Key before and am already getting it for an upcoming cruise. It is pricey, but once you subtract the cost of the internet, and the tenders, it is helpful if you don't book excursions through the ship. We walk off with our own luggage, so the last day breakfast is not a factor for us, but we do prefer to drop off our carry on and grab a meal that is not in the Windjammer masses. Thanks for sharing - I'm off to watch another one of your vlogs.
You have cracked the Key! As long as the components of it are of value to you, it can be a great purchase. Glad you have found us and are enjoying the videos.
That’s totally fair Mike - and though I won’t “blame the edit” I think in this case there was a lot of good, and some not to good (and a lot more good tbh) - and I was trying to be balanced when I cut the footage. I apologise if it did come across as laboured as this certainly wasn’t my intention! Hopefully in upcoming chapters you’ll see how much we really fell in love with Anthem - Ant x
Excellent video gents! Watching this makes us very excited for our Star Clipper cruise around the Greek Islands next month. Kusadasi looks nice, we're visiting there for the first time during our wedding cruise in September :)
Oh you're going to LOVE the Greek Isles! Have the best time :) Kusadasi is fantastic as well, there's so much to do (and so many fake watch shops! haha!) - Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! We can't wait to see the photos! ❤️
Our least favourite ship in the world--we were on the "Hurricane cruise" 2016 from Biscayne which was a cruise to nowhere after the bam pot Captain sailed us into a Hurricane Bomb and the ship was listing to the side for most of the night and we had to return to NYC. We then we received a free cruise due to the afore mentioned. This was a Med cruise which was simply awful, especially the food offerings which were simply dreadful as well as the service. Sun Deck layout is extremly poor and so so overcrowded on sea days. All in all avoid!!!
It must have been utterly terrifying to be a passenger on that cruise. Since you commented on our video, I have been reading articles published around the time of the incident. There really is no justification for the poor decisions made by the captain. If I had been on the same sailing, I would also have serious reservations about sailing with Royal Caribbean again. I fully understand your position. In our experiences with Royal Caribbean, we have never encountered anything like what you described. Our content is based solely on our personal experiences of cruising, which we love sharing and will continue to do so. Finally, I want to emphasise that I truly empathise with you and am grateful to you for taking the time to watch our video and comment. Ant x
Fremont is a shit show especially on the weekends. I don't sleep downtown but do visit during the weekday when I'm in Vegas. I do enjoy Pizza so Pizza Rock is a must visit every time. I also enjoy Red Rock casino and South point casino.
I've just stumbled across your channel and subscribed instantly, you guys are awesome! We're doing a Greek Isles cruise in Oct and your videos have been super helpful and funny! Thank you!
You’re absolutely right about being Diamond level not really meaning anything now that there are so many people at that level. Unless you only drink beer or wine, the free drinks aren’t worth much. The Crown Lounge is sort of a waste of space. Nothing special going on there.
Anthem of the seas which is quantum "lass and like odessey only a few years older splits their dinning rooms into 4. Silk, chic, and the ither two i forget. I was on anthem last year and assigned to chic. I loved the breaking up into 4 dinning rooms. Its made it feel less rushed and more intimate and you really got to know the wait staff. I have food allergies so tend to eat in the main dinning room. I agree that while the large dinning rooms are amazing to see its not the most enjoyable eating experience.
Great suite tour and review, it was a beautiful suite and the balcony was amazing. Agree with your comment about newer ships and you get less space. They design the new cabins to maximise every inch and you seem to get smaller proportions but with the new features.
Thanks for the kind words! Check out the F’book page Daniele Your Driver in Rome, there should be a link to their website from there. Very professional, great communication and most important, super punctual. We hope you have a great cruise!
We try to make it a point to buy one piece of jewelry on each cruise as a memento and yes we always barter and have never been disappointed.. ALWAYS barter. With the WiFi available to you, you can look for the piece online which will give you some negotiation space.. it’s exactly what we did at Effy.. here they are online for much less.. match that and give me 10% less.. ;-)
@@AntandGlen we are cheap so it's always something small almost always under 500.00.. but in gold ;-) A couple of the pieces from our cruises are in a picture frame with a picture from that cruise. A tiny emerald from Columbia for example is literally in the frame with a picture from Columbia.. that type of thing.
We think you said that Glen is Diamond Plus and Ant is Diamond. It's our belief that married couples can claim the higher status of one for the other. Write to Crown and Anchor and ask. It's that way on Celebrity. Worth a shot?
Loved the new format guys 😀 We agree with you both. We've eaten at lots of speciality dining venues where you are on the corridor, MSC Sushi, Princess Sushi, Royal Caribbean Sushi (there's a pattern here), and to be honest, it hasn't really bothered us, as that Sushi experience was great, and we've had similar experiences on land too. However ones like Bistro Sur Le Mer (Now Catch by Rudi's) on Enchanted had a path way running down the middle of it for anyone to walk through and that really annoyed us. So guess it is down to the type of experience we want/expect as to whether the corridors are a problem or not. On Sun Princess, just ask for a table away from the edge and it's no issue at all. We loved Kai Sushi. Linzi & Mark
This is such an amazing video it’s very honest and a real eye opener and if you’re planning a trip information like this is needed. Thank you gentleman.
Hi guys, can you remember what time you disembarked? Hoping to make an 1130am flight home and no idea what time to book our private transfer for! Previous cruises we have always been off the ship very early!
Hey Gemma, we walked our own luggage off and we were outside the terminal by 07:15-ish. We had booked our transfer for 07:30 but they were already there waiting for us. Our flight from Fiumicino was 11:15 and we were there in plenty of time, as there was no traffic the whole route. Hope you have a great cruise!
@@AntandGlen oh that’s perfect, thank you! I’ll reach out to the fella you booked for your transfers and see what he can do for us! We are going in October… I am currently sat in the sunshine watching your fabulous videos, very exciting 😊
Of note: those lower hangers are for those with disabilities (wheel chair, Short People etc.) Need to consider that everyone Cruises, all types of people!
We are thinking of booking an greek island cruise with Norwegian on the Viva next year and my Mom is macedonian so we will probably visit the greek orthdox church as well
