Lisbon is a lovely port, we had proper Pastel de Nata (sorry Lidl) but the best thing is the bridge on the way out. We were on the Celebrity Equinox and there must have only been 20 foot between the ship and the bridge!Breath taking. Queen Mary looks lovely and I’m sure they’ll iron out the bumps

Great video! On the topic of the promenade, I've got such mixed feelings - I get that it's not as picturesque as what you'll find on other ships, but I loved this feature on HAL Rotterdam as it was always nice and quiet, and used primarily for people to exercise, rather than lie down and make it difficult for a walked to go past. I'll be intrigued to see if they do any more like this - I don't see them changing anything here based on feedback - the space simply isn't wide enough!

Sad about the deck loungers not being on QA on the promenade. I noticed there were a few areas where you could stop and enjoy sea views though which is a good thing. If I was trying to do a picturesque walk around the promenade for exercise, I would find it difficult to keep walking around it more than once.

Firstly, Funchal I believe. The sky bar looks lovely!! Impressive ball skills Carole! But who knew Paul was such a ball breaker! 😉 That really is poor planning about the sky bar closing! How utterly ridiculous. Loved the little glimpse of Lisbon. Ooo liking the engraving bottles thing, it's like going to Selfridge's!! The promenade is disappointing, love a prom deck with a view. Spent many an hour relaxing on a steamer on a sea day on a prom deck. I still fancy giving her a try though, love her outside spaces apart from the prom deck but even that I can live with x

I really like the look of this new Cunard ship! There are some beautiful areas throughout.

I agree with your views of the promenade deck - inadequate views. After your review of Aranya restaurant I shan't be eating there on my cruise with Queen Anne next year - spices of India - my foot! Also, If I asked for pork or beef at my local Indian restaurants/takeaways I would be shown the door. Super video - lots of great images of Lisbon and the ship. The top decks look fab. I had two immediate answers that came to mind fot the unbuilt London bridge question - Boris's Garden Bridge and the Thames Gateway Bridge but I have just googled and it might be the glass Pilkington The Crystal Span Bridge. As a born and bred Londoner I am interested to know what answer the quizmaster wanted as there could be many? Looking forward to your next blog of the ship.
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel

Mmm re the Prom Deck. Bit of a shame that........ We're booked for a short cruise on her in August, glad we didn't book anything longer as personally the Prom Deck for an evening/morning walk is one of the highlights for me, just being able to step outside on deck is a must in my book. I don't want to take a lift 10 floors to get outside. Looking forward to the trip but suspect Queen Anne might not be a ship we will not return to often. (But you never can tell, gotta try these things to find out). Excellent video as always, you make me feel I've had a micro cruise after watching your adventures. 👍❤️👍❤️ Vik

I love your objective and down-to-earth style in these videos. I do feel it's a big mistake to compare Queen Anne with QM2 - they are, in every sense, oceans apart in class, style and service. QM2 is the world's sole ( and probably last) great transatlantic liner. Queen Anne is comparable to P&O; a petri dish on water, and completely underwhelming in design, fitment, and now, it appears, service delivery, her maiden voyage notwithstanding. As for the abysmal dining experiences ... no words. Thanks for convincing me to never go on another cruise in my life.
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel Месяц назад
Thanks! In terms of build yes QM2 is very different but the Cunard service that we have got to know and love is evident across all 3 queens. Hopefully all the service issues on the maiden voyage should be improving by now. LOL you should try it you might be pleasantly surprised! 😂

Another wonderful and entertaining video as always ! Thank You so much for sharing !! Sorry Paul , Carole definitely won the Pickle Ball tournament ! Got to call them as I see them !😂 I’m sailing on Queen Anne’s Transatlantic maiden voyage in January 2025 , so I’m learning so much in advance from your videos that will enhance my voyage! So thanks once again ❤️👍 !! I usually try all the specialty dining when onboard, but because of your videos, I’m probably only going to try the japanese restaurant. As far as the ship goes•••#1 love the exterior of the ship ! She’s Majestic and beautifully Sleek. The pools and Lounges and Sky Bar are gorgeous! #2 The Commodore Club, Britannia Dining Room, Spa, Grills Lounge and Artisans Food Hall are very nice ! But •••• the other areas are VERY disappointing! Too Modern, Too Contemporary and just unwelcoming and Blah 👎👎👎👎 No Cunard vibes. Looks like any hotel venue on shore ?!?! But my biggest negative opinion is for the UGLY UGLY QUEENS ROOM and the Promenade Deck ( too narrow, no deck chairs and no ocean views!!) Big Mistake Cunard !!! and PS •• the naming ceremony in Liverpool was a terrible joke !! Just a WOKE MISJUDGEMENT !!! No member of the Royal Family to Officially christen and name the ship ??? Come On Cunard !🤷‍♂️😮😢🙄😒👎Obviously Cunard wanted the naming ceremony to be as UNTRADITIONAL and DISAPPOINTING as the ship’s interiors !!!! Anyway Love you Paul and Carole !

Noticed a few comments from others saying the sound was a bit muffled on this vlog series, we noticed this too for the first time with your videos (we've seen them all😊) on all this series. Not sure which camera you were usingGonew phone or Go Pro?) but the sound from the front facing camera is crystal clear whereas the sound from Carole at the rear of the camera is muffled. I know on my Go Pro you can chose whether to use the front mic, rear mic, both or match which lens is in use. Sorry if this is teaching you to suck eggs but would hate for you not to be aware.

Like your honest review. I come away with the perception that the 'bones' of the ship are beside two poonts good. The hick ups seems to mainly lie with service (behind the scenes) that needs to be improved and some front of house. I am debating going on the ahip in the next year or so. BTW love all the different music in this vlog. It seems like the up and down of service you had a great group of friends around to counter the negatives.

That is not a Promenade Deck, which by definition is a space to walk leisurely so as to meet or be seen by others. Just because you are able to walk continuously around the deck does not make it a Promenade Deck, for that title to be justified you need to be able to Promenade, which you can’t! With regards the Queen’s Room, in the comments on another channel the very excellent Swiss dancing couple who live to dance on Cunard (anyone who has cruised on Cunard will know these 2 extraordinary dancers) have said that the Queen’s Room Dance Floor and the Music for dancing was a terrible disappointment on the Maiden, and they certainly know what they are talking about.

We do know the Swiss couple, we have seen them on quite a few of our Cunard cruises, they are the experts so guess they will stick to the older Queens in future too!

I am still very disappointed with the Queen's Room. Very bland, small, and claustrophobic. No big band musicians is a big letdown.

I'm sorry, but I get a little confused when you talk about spice and food. In one breath, you declare that your food is favorable, but then you say it has no spice. The function of a spice is to impart flavor. Perhaps you are referring to "heat" as in "spicy hot." Not all spices add that sense of heat or burning sensation to food. Many spices are quite sweet tasting. If you're looking for a hot taste, then let your waiter know so that you're not disappointed. Remember, they are preparing food for general consumption. Therefore, they would likely use mild spices, imparting flavor, but avoiding heat.

Totally understand that not everyone wants heat but some of the food was flavoursome but not all, some was flavourless which was disappointing. We want to come out of a restaurant with our tastebuds having had a treat but sadly this didn't happen in Aranya.

It’s a very pretty ship but definitely some things we don’t like.
@MarkMariesTravels
@MarkMariesTravels Месяц назад
Firstly, Aranya. Flavoursome but not spicy? Do you mean it's tasty but it doesn't inflict pain on your lips, tongue, back of throat, and cause you to break out in sweat? Because if so then that sounds like just what we've been after in an Asian restaurant for years. Secondly, that promenade deck is pretty poor, but at least you walked around it in the right direction. I mean, we're contrarians by nature, as you know, but you always walk around with the sea on your right. That's maritime law. Food issues aside, based on your videos (well, we're not looking at anyone else's, after all), Queen Anne looks like the first Cunard ship that interests us a little. I wouldn't say there's an imminent booking, but she might actually move Cunard into the consideration list for future plans.
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel Месяц назад
LOL it wasn't as flavoursome or spicy for us but for your different palate it may suit! We always try and stick to the law 😂 Queen Anne has a lot to offer and definitely for those new to Cunard so definitely would be worth a try!
