After taking an NCL cruise for the first time last year on Norwegian Star, we are taking a second cruise on Norwegian Sky in December. We have booked Free at Sea and just wondered how the speciality restaurants work. Last time it was a fixed rate rather than the a la carte menus this time around. Do you get one choice of each course to choose from?
My size of ship, we are in our 70's and dont need flowriders, waterslides, Disco dancing - I can do dad dancing. We tend to cruise on refurbished ships of a similar age which are not mega fancy. Not bothered about a balcony on the basis that the view from your cabin looks at the industrial side of the port!! More fun being outside people watching and flexible views. Looking to go on our first NCL cruise next year so a great review.
Can I ask those of you who have sailed on her before, whether the smoke from the Casino drifts out to the Atrium area? I hate the smell & my cabin is nearby & I'm worried about it. Many thanks.😮
Excellent video! Very well done. Having all your clothing and sundries stowed neatly made this video even better. That’s how I keep my cabin 24/7. My stewards love taking care of my cabins. 😉 I’ve sailed the Sky before in a balcony cabin. But it was too hot to use the balcony much so this coming trip I’m in this room, ocean view with a large porthole. The cabin proper is the exact same size as the balcony cabin. I’m going solo so have asked for the beds to be split. Thanks again for this very, very well done video!
I stayed in an inside stateroom on the Disney Dream and in a family oceanview on the NCL Jewel. I didn’t like the inside stateroom because I didn’t realize how much I would want natural light in my bedroom. I told my husband I wouldn’t sail inside again because of this. We liked the family oceanview on the Jewel. We are going to be sailing in a family oceanview on the Disney Wish in October and in a balcony stateroom in the NCL Getaway in 2025. 😊
Thank you for this video! Traveling with an elderly mom and autistic adult and this helps us prepare immensely for our 9-night Caribbean adventure in July. Exactly what we needed to hear and see!
Lovely video, thanks for all the tips. Can you share more details of your itinerary, especially in terms of time spent driving & visiting each spot? I'm planning to visit in mid-sept and can only pick up the rental at 9am from Reykjavík, which means I would likely have to give up some spots.
Thank you! In total, it took about 10 hours. If you’re pressed for time, I would suggest skipping Geysir, Kerid Crater, and Laugarvatn. Thingvellir, Gullfoss, and Bruarfoss are must-see’s (in our opinion) and the drive is scenic enough! Going from Reykjavik to Gullfoss is under 2hours in one direction, so I would base your day on that. Enjoy!!
Another fabulous and detailed tour video, that brings a sharp focus on the subject, and provides the traveller with facts to help them make good choices. We've only just discovered Freestyle Travelers, and its already become one of our best 'go-to' channels for cruise ship tours and information. We've happily hit Subscribe✔and will be back to see more of your voyages 👍
Really nice décor, with subtle tones that give the room a contemporary feel. And you're right about the space. Would happily occupy that room minus its window or balcony.
Well, here's another ship that we haven't looked at in any great detail before now. You've done a great job of capturing the essence of this ship in your images, and your accompanying information. Yep, Infinity is another vessel that we would add to our list of desired cruise ships.
We have been curious about Divina for a while, and your excellent ship tour has definitely helped us to decide if this is a ship we would book a sailing on. She packs some class & character, despite not being one of the many shiny new ships she has to compete with these days.
We just had the 9 day tour from Miami and had fun. We liked the ship and its crew. Only thing is maybe some variation on the menu from the free eating facilty's on the back of the ship(?) Otherwise don't change anything.
