Hello Fam! Okay how cute are those cats!! Such a fun day! Love seeing everything you guys are getting into on this amazing Greece adventure! Much love! ❤❤❤
Hi Lacrecia! ❤️ Aww thank you so much! 🥰 It really was an adventure and we absolutely loved every second of it! Greece is full of so high history and beauty and it was so fun exploring it all! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🏛
On our Med cruise this summer we did not have Athens on our itinerary, so it was great to see it through your video! Those cats (all over Greece!) are just so cool to see. I took SO many photos of cats! Even bought a "Cats of Greece" t-shirt. Can't wait to see your day in Santorini!
Hi Susan! Yay! So glad you enjoyed it! 😍 We loved the cats! They’re Matt’s favorite so he was so happy! 😹 Love the tshirt! If I saw that there I probably would have bought one for Matt! 😻 Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🏛
Thank you for these awesome videos, we’re going on this same cruise next summer and this helps so much, cool to see this and live vicariously though you guys until we can go ourselves.
Hi Trent! Yayy! That’s awesome! 🤩 So glad these videos are helping you plan and building up excitement! We hope you have the best time! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🏛
The last time I was in Athens was quite a number of years ago and I remember visiting the Acropolis in the late afternoon. Barely any crowds, lots of time to just sit and take it all in. I love that people are getting out and seeing the world but when I see Disneyland style lines it makes me a bit sad. It feels like it is very much a rush, rush from one monument to another just to check it off a list and to me those ancient sights are so much more than that and deserve more time and contemplation. Sorry to sound like I'm complaining, I'm not really. I just feel like people should slow down a bit and truly appreciate the significance of history. Okay, off my soapbox now. lol Can't wait to see your vlogs from Santorini and the rest of your adventures.
Hi Margaret! I understand, I think it’s probably less like that on days cruise ships aren’t in, and my guess is that it’s less busy in the evening as well. Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🏛
Hi Simon! It's hard to say because we only experience the Royal Caribbean one and can't speak to the quality of the outside party ones. I think the Royal Caribbean is the simplest option and the safest but I'm sure other tours are great too! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
I taught ancient civilizations for years so when we were going on our Mediterranean Cruise I was so excited to go to Athens. Well, the Greeks decided to have a Country-Wide strike that day so no Athens!
Hey guys catching up on your Europe trip. We will be starting our cruise from Athens in August. Do you think it will be difficult to get from Athens proper to the port?
Hi Josh and Rachael! Thats awesome! I don't think you'll have a hard time. I would just prepare ahead by arranging transportation before hand or talking to the hotel staff the day before about calling for a taxi the next day and how to go about that. We hope you have the best time! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🚢
Hey! About to head on this trip in a couple days, my friend and i didnt get an excursion for greece. what is the best way to get to acropolis from the boat?
No not a weird question at all! I know some of the ancient theaters had excellent acoustics where sound carried up just do to the construction of the stage and seats, but I have no idea if this stage was one of those examples. It’s very interesting how differently things were done then! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🏛
Do you regret only getting to spend a few hours in Athens? That’s one of the downsides of cruise travel, only a short amount of time in the places you travel to
Hi RaeahTheWriter! We don’t regret it at all! That can be a downside of cruising but there are lots of pros too! For us it helps give us an idea of places we may want to revisited explore more in depth in the future! Thanks for watching! 🤗❤️🏛
May or may not be going on this similar cruise now as it was chartered out by a company called Atlantis Events for a “specialty” cruise 😢 and our sold out Greek Isles cruise was canceled as Royal was greedy and took that company’s millions over the happiness of it’s already booked guests.
I could never understand why should anyone go on a cruise. You spend most if the time in a ship, when you go out you run to see a couple of things, and overall I think I agree with Bill Burr.
