Welcome to our video showing you the layout of the Marella Discovery 2. We spent 2 weeks onboard and learnt a lot of things about her that we want to share with you so you can have the best experience possible on holiday.
We have a lot of content coming up over the next few weeks on the Marella Discovery 2 including cabin tour, embarkation day, food review, drinks review, sea day hints and tips, how to get a premium experience onboard, dress to impress review, and entertainment review.
After this we will also be uploading our content on our port visits to South East Asia.
We try to produce videos that we would want to watch that are informative, entertaining and humorous.
If you have any questions about the Marella Discovery 2 please drop us a comment and we will do our best to answer it.
If you have found this video interesting, informative or entertaining could you please consider subscribing, liking and commenting.

Also a big shout out to all the amazing staff on the Marella Discovery 2 who were absolutely fabulous and made our holiday a great success.

Was on this ship for the first time in November 2023 and I agree with all that you have said - a lovely layout and plenty of space just as long as you do not want a poolside lounger. Also good food - for the most part and good service from the hard working staff and crew.

Marella Discovery 2 was my 2nd ever cruise - it's great to see she's ageing so well - hasn't changed at all since I was onboard about 6 years ago. Great ship tour!

@TravellingLightLisa 4 месяца назад

Thanks so much, Fraser. It was our first ever ship tour (apart from a river cruise boat tour), so praise from a seasoned pro like yourself was nice to wake up to this morning! We found that she was perfectly fine and most complaints were unjustified. Glad our video brought back some memories for you. Thanks for watching. Happy travels!

Weve not been on this ship and were hoping to do south east asia on her but sadly not now!! be interesting to see where TUI position her for winter 2024/2025 and having watched all your videos aboard her we will not be shy of booking if the destination suits us. Many thanks for the excellent info.

We prefer the Discovery ships to the Explorers, but we are looking at a cruise on Marella Voyager. If it drops in price, we may book that one. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍 It is much appreciated.

@michaelhorn5633 Месяц назад

hi love your vlogs on marella, great food review and yes pastry looks awefull !! has been a great insight as we are potential first time cruisers, one thing i cant find information on is the cruise we are looking at gets into final port around 6.00 am, so assume we would get kicked off around 10.00-11.00am , transfers to airport are included however our flight is 9.30pm . do they simply take you to airport many hours before you actually need to be there? i predict that would be a 9 hr wait before flight any info would be greatly appreciated

@TravellingLightLisa Месяц назад

They tend to allow you to remain on the ship and enjoy the facilities until your transfer coach leaves. You won't have an excessively long wait at the airport unless the plane is delayed. Thanks for watching. 👍

We are off on a weeks med cruise in a few weeks for our honeymoon. The only thing I am unsure about is day 1 - our flight is 6am so we should arrive in the port by lunchtime and the ship doesn't sail till 10pm. Do we have acces to ship/all inclusive for food etc after a certain time and do you know if we are allowed to walk around the local port of Palma before we set sail?

@TravellingLightLisa 17 дней назад

Once you are on board you have access to all the ships facilities, including bars, restaurants and buffet if they are open. You can also disembark as long as you are back by the return time. Congratulations, and I hope you have a fantastic honeymoon! Make sure you let Marella know it is a special holiday - they may look after you even better! Thanks for watching 👍

Me and my partner are going in December for are first ever cuisine. What is the dress code like especially for tbe restaurants and bars?

@TravellingLightLisa 19 дней назад

It is fairly relaxed but people make a little more effort on 'Dress to Impress' night. Don't worry about it though. We did a video on what to wear ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s5JIwG8wmuE.htmlsi=mG7kWiku27fP17FL

@olliebennettt 3 месяца назад

Great video! How’s it work with taking food off board when in port?

@TravellingLightLisa 3 месяца назад

They don't search you when you leave the ship, and they haven't caught us yet! 😀 Just be careful of local customs as it can be illegal to bring certain foodstuffs ashore.

@olliebennettt 3 месяца назад

@@TravellingLightLisa thanks for the quick reply! How early do the breakfast / food places tend to open up?

@TravellingLightLisa 3 месяца назад

@olliebennettt it depends whether it is a sea day or port day. If I recall the buffet was generally open around 7.30 and the restaurants around 8. For anyone on very early excursions there was always an opportunity to eat before trips. Times can vary, but the information is always on the app and in the Cruise News leaflet. Hope this helps. 👍

Hi guys, enjoyed your videos on Discovery 2, we are due to go on the same trip to Singapore on this ship at the end of March, can you tell me if you had to have any vaccinations before going on this trip, we have found it a bit confusing to find out if we require any. Cheers Alex

@TravellingLightLisa 4 месяца назад

Thanks Alex. You don't need any jabs to go the destinations on this itinerary. We didn't catch anything while we were over there 😁 You will have a great time. If you have any questions before you go or need advice, please just ask, and we will do our best to help. Happy travels!

How much are the excursions on average, travelling two adults/one child example would be the trip to Livorno??

@TravellingLightLisa 2 месяца назад

Excursions are very variable. Some are walking tours of the port area and can cost £20 to £30. Some are coach tours and will cost £30 to £80. Some are experiences such as having included meals, boat rides, and other add ons. These can cost even more. As much as possible, we try to do our own thing, particularly when we took the children as costs of excursions can rack up quickly. Try 'what's in port' website for ideas of what you can do. We have a video in Livorno and what was there. Trips from Livorno include Florence and Pisa. Lucca is also very nice. Thanks for watching 👍
