Tui's Marella Explorer 2 full review
Просмотров 19 тыс.7 месяцев назад
We've all seen the the blue and red small on the side of some ships and at least Jill and I never knew which line this was. Now we do. Marella is an British based cruise line catering to English vacationers but you can sneak on if you are Canadian and book through Sunwing. Sorry for the hoarse voice I've been fighting a bit of a cold. Enjoy!

It's been a while since we've gotten away and we've been planning our next couple of adventures. It had me thinking of the things I wish I had known on our first sailing. So here they are. Things I learned at sea.

Paddling at Rockwood Conservation
Просмотров 413 года назад
The pandemic has grounded the planes and docked the ships. Jill and I bought new bicycles last year and this year we've added some inflatable kayaks. This is a short video we took of the maiden voyage around Rockwood Conservation just outside of Guelph Ontario. The kayaks handled really well. I just need a little more time on the water.
Be Live Turquesa in Veradero Cuba. cuba
Просмотров 944 года назад
The whole family ventured to Veradero Cuba. We snorkeled, swam in the pool, toured Havana for the day and just had a terrific time. Why is there a camel you ask? Because it came from Spain is their answer. Must have lost something in the translation.
Kirkwall, Orkney Islands
Просмотров 3235 лет назад
The final spot on this particular trip was Kirkwall in the Orkney Islands. We visited the Cathedral, the Scapa Flow, the Italian chapel and most importantly for me Highland Park Distillery. I must have been tired because I forgot to video most of it. So enjoy or photos.

      I haven't done videos just on the food yet. Just never thought of it. It was quite good. Not as much selection as the bigger ships but very well done. The Italian a la Carte was amazing and surf and turf was very reasonable for the food quality in my opinion.

      @seanjillseatheworld6899 10 месяцев назад

      I'm sorry you didn't enjoy your trip. There's nothing worse than not getting what you expected. I do agree that the ship is laid out a little "differently" which makes it more challenging to get around at times. As for the dining options I felt there were plenty. Jill and I do tend to eat in the main dining rooms for most meals, finding all buffets too busy and main of the other options are similar to what you can get in the dining rooms. Thank you for the feedback. Another perspective gives others a chance to make better decisions for their holiday planning. I hope your next trip is more to your liking.

    Hi, can you help me with some info on the land tour part with Holland America tours, I was looking at a 12 day Danali/Yukon cruise/ land tour (Y41). Contacted HA chat line for info regarding what were the inclusions/exclusions of this package, eg, accommodation, meals, coach and rail, as I could not find anything on theier web site. They fobbed me off to a email address for the info, however, that was a dead end as the people at that address had nothing to do with bookings and told me to ring HA, start of the merry-go round. It would be nice to know what out of pocket expenses is involved. Cheers.

    • @SeanClipston
      @SeanClipston 11 месяцев назад

      No problem. We were on Y41 as well. Basically, it included the transportation and the accommodations. It us on the train, bus and plane. The rooms were not fancy but they were certainly clean and comfortable. Lunch was included on travel days that took most of the day. All other food and beverages were not included. HA did a good job of pointing out decent places to eat and which ones to maybe avoid. Since you can decide for yourself where you are going to eat you can try to keep the prices reasonable. We ended up spending a little more than we were expecting to be honest but mostly because the price of food is relatively high and we picked some "premium" excursions. It definitely will be more than you are used to on a regular cruise. Be aware that there is A LOT of traveling in the land portion. Those days are packed full. HA has done a good job of making sure that you get off to stretch or see something if they can but it still makes for a few long days and you will need to be up early most of those days.

      @@Dunroamin1952 No breakfast was not included. I highly recommend getting up a little early and going to the snow city cafe near the water. Get the reindeer sausage. We gave ourselves an extra day and rented bikes from the place right next door and cycled the trail along the ocean. Saw 2 moose right there. The accommodation is included and across the street is the glacier bay brewing company. Get dinner there. Sooo good.

      We did book directly with NCL. We had no issues but made sure that everything made sense prior to accepting flights etc. This is the 11 day Greece: Israel, Turkey & Cyprus trip on the Jade. I too have not been kind to my knees over the years and had no issues. We took some Moderate to difficult tours which included A LOT of walking but it was the distance not the difficulty of the walks that made it too much for some people.

      Yes Rolling Stone was rock every night. If you want some variety they played Blues and "funk" at BB King's and Billboard had pop music. They are all right next to each other so very easy to get up and check out what is happening elsewhere.

    Thanks for posting. Slight disagreement about the Italian restaurant. It is more than just spaghetti and the one time we ate there ... Jan 2020 ... it was the best meal of our ten day cruise. Granted the ambience is not as nice as their other specialty restaurants, but the food was excellent. I don't think anyone in our party of four had spaghetti!

    • @seanjillseatheworld6899
      @seanjillseatheworld6899 Год назад

      I agree I may have been a bit harsh. The food was good it was the ambience that was lacking for us. If we are eating at a specialty restaurant then I am paying for the experience more than the food. We've never been too disappointed with any meal on a cruise. Yes some are definitely better than others but never had anything that was really disastrous. Thanks for watching and I appreciate you taking the time to add you opinion in a respectable way. It will hopefully give others a better picture of what to expect. Happy sailing.
