i'm a sucker for a fountain show!! Thanks for the tour :) x
Great video! Yup thats Penang added to my list!
Wow
Thanks for watching!
Very beautiful excellent photographing
Thanks so much!
It's absolutely incredible how you captured Bali from amazing accommodations, delicious food, fun activities
Thanks so much and so happy to hear you enjoyed it!
Pleasant overview of day 1. Thank you. My first Queen Elizabeth Cruise to Alaska in September... the 10 day. I travel so much that I was not looking as forward to this trip as I could be. I think I am now! Visions of experiences!
We are going in 2025 with this ceuise to Alaska but now they change the starting point from Seattle. Did you ever did this trip aswell?
Hi there, I’ve only been on the Queen Elizabeth out of Vancouver, however I’ve sailed to Alaska on other ships out of Seattle.
Hi, I'm enjoying your videos about the Koningsdam - thanks for sharing such a good view of life on this cruise. We are looking to book this cruise for next year. Quick question - you say room service is complimentary and with no delivery charge, but do you tip the person who delivers your breakfast? We're new to cruising and want to understand the process around gratuities. Thanks
Thanks for watching and so happy to hear that you’re enjoying my Koningsdam videos! Tipping is totally up to each individual over and above the regular “crew appreciation”. There is a crew gratuity that you do pay each day that is automatically added to your shipboard account (Holland America sometimes has promotions where these are included). You can certainly tip whomever extra you feel gives you great service, it’s not required but they appreciate it. I hope this helps!
That's so Amazing ❤
Thanks for watching
Well done! One of the best reviews on this ship.
Thanks so much for watching and happy to hear you enjoyed my review!
The Best..I Lived Here For Years❤❤
Very thorough review. However, throughout the almost 50 minutes you abused "actually", overused and annoying. Content was great but from a professional perspective you need to be aware of your commentary.
Thanks for watching and your feedback.
Very nice video! Thanks!
Very nice video! How to become a cruise travel agent and get invited to cruise for free please? 😅
Considering this ship and NCL Encore for late May 2025. We’ll have a 15 yr old teenage boy…heard HAL has older crowd so that’s a concern. 😅
Hi there! I actually just sailed the Koningsdam again to Alaska last week (just got off the ship on Saturday) and there were many families. It’s very popular with multi generation families onboard. I’ve also sailed on the NCL Encore and she’s a beautiful ship! There are some differences in the itineraries and activities onboard, if you’d like to reach out to have a further chat you can send me an email at ariane@wanderlustjourney.ca 😊
(from July, 2024) Airport transit hotels tend to be a VERY bad choice - especially in premium, amenity-packed airports like Singapore Changi! Once one rents for longer than six hours, the price increases exponentially. If the guest is willing to go "landside," there is a wonderful 5-Star Crowne Plaza also in Terminal 3 - and next door to Jewel! Further, Crowne's rooms are larger and actually have ... WINDOWS! Price? Around $242 (USD) for a conventional 15:00 to 12:00 stay. Ambassador? Six hours: $192, 12-hours: $263. Again, VERY poor choice!
I would tend to agree, during this travel time (2022) it was an easier option and I wanted to review it. I recommend most of my clients to do a proper stopover in Singapore as it’s such an amazing city! I’ll be posting my recent stay at Marina Bay Sands in the coming weeks!
24:50 Great music & video!
Thanks so much for watching!
Ohhh… Where exactly is the opening to the “underground” of Piazza Nevona? You only said around the corner😅
If you are in Piazza Navona, walk towards the north entrance/exit to Piazza di Tor Sanguigna, it’s on the left around the corner when you come to the street.
Thank you for showing the travel products you like.
Thanks for watching!
Very nice.
Thanks for watching!
Really enjoyed this video! Great job!
Thanks for watching! So happy to hear you enjoyed it!

Différent cabins
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately this cruise was sold out, so I was unable to show the various cabin categories. I do have a Koningsdam video on RUclips where I do have a few of the other cabin and suite categories shown, they are sister ships so the cabins are very similar, most identical.
whats months are the best to enjoy the snow and all snow activities?
It really depends on the year (amounts of snowfall can differ from year to year) but I was advised that January through March is typically the best times to visit La Rosiere.
Very thorough tour, nice commentary, overall good review! Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
with regard to food, I was on the Queen Victoria in 2022, and I made a bad choice for my main course in the Britannia. I did not like it at all. I asked for something else, and they brought me a new main course with no quibbling.
Yes they did offer that, however I have a seafood allergy and the other choices that evening were just not really what I wanted. Believe me, over the course of the cruise I did not go hungry lol
I LIVE & LEARN.........BURGERS & CHIPS served on CUNARD LINERS..SO LOW LIFE ...Leaving HOME to eat all this✍🏿🇻🇨🇬🇧
Thank you for your videos, we are going on the 10 day from Vancouver on June 21, the packing seems complicated as it seems temps can range from winter coats to shorts. Your reviews are so helpful!
Thanks so much for watching and happy to hear it was helpful! Weather in Alaska can be a bit unpredictable, I hope you have a lovely cruise!
Just booked this itinerary...October 2025. Your videos are amazing and so inspirational
Thanks so much for watching! I hope you have a fantastic river cruise!
What month did you cruise? We are going in late June
This cruise was late June, we returned to Vancouver on July 1st, 2022 :)
A little advice: it's pronounced, Charlotte "Amal-ya" not "Amalie". Just a little help from one TA to another.
Thanks! That’s how they were pronouncing it onboard (Amalie) so I just went with it lol
Taking this soon ! Does anyone know the policy/enforcement on BYOB ? I read that you can bring 1 bottle of wine. Not sure how that works ? Thanks !
Thanks for watching, I did bring two bottles of wine onboard (1 per person) when I initially boarded in Vancouver and had no issues with it.
Thank you, great video. I think Holland America’s enrichment program is called Explorations Central and the talks are called EXC for short. ;-)
Yes, they have a great onboard program!
The waffles are AMAZING!
They sure are! :) Thanks for watching!
Good
Were you charged a single supplement? If so, what percent? Any advice on how to avoid it, besides advertised specials? Thanks a bunch.
Most cruise lines charge a single supplement, Oceania sometimes has single supplement offers on certain stateroom categories, however it wasn’t applicable for my sailing.
Thanks for sharing. Which month was it? Did you use binoculars?
Thanks for watching! This cruise was the last week in May 2022. I personally did not use binoculars, but I would bring them if you have them. I have a pretty decent zoom lens for my DSLR which is just like using binoculars.
That Kamehameha Suite though 😍
Great series. Thanks for your honest reviews. They are very helpful.
Great video! I have been to Alaska on Holland but not Cunard. If you had to choose one or the other for similar itinaries, which one wins and why, please? I am debating between the two for this summer and I would really appreciate your advice. Thanks.
Hi Ariane We are travelling on Pride of America in August, and I found your vlog to be informative and helpful. You are so pretty and personable and so easy to relate to, thanks and look forward to checking out your other work ❤
Le système de métro de Rome est-il aussi efficace que celui de Paris ?
Very similar to the Ama Dante on the Paris/Normandie cruise.
Yes! They are “sister ships”, so they are very similar in layout :)
That stained glass experience in Siena looks unbelievable. What an art form!
Great episode! Your footage is stunning too ❤
We would like to rent a car for the day we are in Hilo. What time did you disembark and go to hilo?
Hi there, I would double check the time you’re scheduled to dock in Hilo with NCL. My cruise was back in 2022 so docking times could have changed since then. I believe we docked around 8am and ship was cleared shortly thereafter.
Thanks for the great video. We are going on a cruise on the Riviera in June! Can't wait.
Thanks for watching! I hope you have a great cruise!
