If you are thinking of booking a Marella cruise these are the vlogs you need to watch for an unbiased look at what you will get for your hard earned money, they are excellent.
Hi. We are considering this same cruise. Can I please ask side of the ship were you on and did you find that you had inland views when in port. Many thanks.
I recently took a cruise on the "Mein Schiff ♥" - a sister ship of the Marella Explorer and had a great time. Mostly looked liked in your nice video. She will change from "Mein Schiff (Tui Germany) to Marella Cruises next year after a short refit like her sister.
Much prefer a clean shaven Andy. That beard ages you about 10 years! 😲 On the other hand, looks like you've been working out Andy. Some decent looking biceps on show earlier in the video 💪
Hi Andy and Kirstie absolutely fantastic I can't wait for November to come myself and the wife travelling with two other more people did you travel after COVID-19 and regards to the testing where did you go for your certificate TUI have said testing is £15 looked into it I'm found out it's £45 per person can you please advise also I take it it's a 2 pin plug which you need
Have a great time on your cruise! It's difficult to offer testing advice now as so much has changed and is still changing. We tested before flying and again at the port in Corfu immediately prior to boarding. It was pretty fast.
Hi great video. What cabin did you stay in? I'm booking a cruise on the Marella Explorer and trying to decide between a balcony cabin and a large balcony cabin.
I'm going on the Adriatic Explorer on Marella Explorer. Embark this Friday 26th August. Can you please tell me your experience on boarding and overall experience this year.
We've always been pretty lucky with embarkation and haven't had any delays. The protocols will likely have changed again for you, as our last boarding was back in May. Have a great time!
Thank you both for showing us around the ship, the food and drink look lovely, we are probably going to book for the Canaries in November this year due to this vlog. Loved Kirsty's singing 🎶
Hello. I’ve just found your channel and it’s great. Myself and my boyfriend are looking to go on a Marella cruise next year for his 40th. Probably a Caribbean or American cruise with tui. Do you pay for the upgrade to all inclusive or have you found that it’s just not worth it? Really enjoying your vlogs. 😊
Thankyou, we have watched all your videos of this cruise, just fabulous! We are on the same cruise in September, first time on Marella Explorer, we usually cruise with celebrity but having a change, you have brought everything alive, we thank you and have enjoyed your videos x
Just saw our favourite barman...Heyu....he passed when you were at coffee port..great vlog, love the Explorer and the Mediterranean bar great bar staff... really enjoyed watching this... thanks 👍
The Marella ships are great, being ex Royal Caribbean and Celebrity ships and the size we really like (2000ish passengers). Marella is a bit more relaxed and the food is as good if not better in some venues.
Brilliant vlog as usual Andy. My wife is always asking if you have put up any more videos. We've watched all your stuff to date and enjoyed every one of them. You and Kirstie are a great team. Just getting us more in the mood for our upcoming cruise from Southampton in less than a month. Keep up the good work!
Lovely video as per usual. Chilled 👌Marella MDR looks lovely and yes well spaced out. We noticed our Ventura cruise last week was pretty crammed in as well. Those mirror shots were funny 😄
hi guys, always great content. my question is food related..... do you (or anyone reading this) have any tips to be able to eat more on a cruise? i love to try new foods, & cruising gives that opportunity, but at 46yo my appetite is not what it was, one english breakfast, & i'm done until evening meal. i so miss being able to eat what i want when i want. cheers guys.
I've worked in film for 35 years and, good sound is sometimes an afterthought, but using a 'tie mike' here has made such a difference.The best blog to date Andy and Kirstie, well done!
Thanks! It's a bit of added hassle, but it's very easy for our audio to be drowned out by background noise in bars and restaurants otherwise. I now just need to get the settings right every time!
