Enjoyed the video, Charles (and all your recent uploads on the channel)! I've never really been attracted to cruises, but these Virgin Voyages looks excellent and exciting - look forward to your upcoming uploads.
Thanks very much! I was the exact same way about cruises but took an interest when Virgin first came out and very glad we decided to give it a go! You can also often book them with Virgin Red points!
Looks like you crammed a lot into your holiday and it's great to see the benefits that you get as Rock Stars. I'm sure you'll be looking forward to your next voyage!
Yes, even though there was a lot crammed in it was still incredibly relaxing too. You’re right, we can’t wait for the next one, just a shame it’s not until next year!
Just found your channel - have subscribed to see more - great to find another cruise vlogger on here! Nice perspective of the Rockstar experience on Virgin - I'm always fascinated with seeing 'how the other half live' - I've only experienced 'life on the Inside' with Virgin, haha!
Thanks so much for this. I’m on this exact ship in 12 days time but on a different itinerary to you. Looks amazing. You two have very heathy appetites. Bit confused about how you leave and re-board the ship on port days but I guess it’ll all work out on the day
Hope you have a brilliant time! Wish I was getting back on board in 12 days! It varies slightly whether it’s docked at the port or if it’s a tender port. If it’s docked at the port you can just go down to deck 4 and walk off the ship. They’ll scan your band when you leave and when you get back on. If it’s a tender port, you’ll want to book a tender boat via the shore things in the app if you want to leave the ship in the morning, you’ll then have a meeting point to go to before getting on that boat to get to shore. In the afternoon you’ll be able to leave any time. Or if you’re rockstar you can also leave whenever you want and your rockstar agent should be able to explain exactly how it all works.
I'm curious how your Mykonos port was... we're doing this same cruise and I've read all kinds of things about how difficult it can be getting around Mykonos due to lack of taxis...we were think of going to a beach club but there's so much conflicting info online about how to get to beaches and back, especially when the city is full of cruise ship passengers. What did you do after getting off the cruise ship? Did you ever have to take public transportation anywhere or did you just walk around? Any tips or advice are welcomed
Virgin puts on free shuttle buses from the port to the main old town area and we mostly just walked around this area. The only people we know who went to beach clubs had just booked it through Virgin, so unfortunately can’t give you too much info about other transport options available
One question. Although you were a Rockstar, did you have a bar tab? If so, what's a good amount to get? We will be Rockstars as well and we currently have a $200 bar tab that came with our booking. But I'm wondering if we need more. It seems you guys have similar habits as us.
We had $700 to spend. We had a couple of hundred left over by the end, but we made good use of the in room bar and Richard’s rooftop for drinks. Most of ours was sailor loot rather than bar tab and $100 went on Another Rose
It's Cabin or Rock Star Suite, Aft not back of the ship, it's NOT a boat! It's Scarlet... The pool party is fun hehehe Again it's Cabin or Rock Star Suite... Not Room! I mean the pizza place is great but U didn't go to The Wake! Or the Secret Show... DOH! Ahhh glad U went in the end lol

Thanks for the tip about getting free room delivery if ordering a coffee!
Nice video and great insight into the Rock Stars room! Reminiscing when I went on Resilient Lady back when it was cruising around Australia 😊
I hope they get back round to Australia again eventually!

Enjoyed your video a lot! I’m going on the 11 day Modern med on Virgin in October.

Thanks! I’ve actually watched a few of your Virgin Voyages videos recently too!
@@charlesontravels ah, amazing- thanks a lot!

@@charlesontravelsthanks so much Charles. That’s helpful. Sadly not in a rockstar suite but I’m sure it’ll be great.
Spent all that money on the rock star suite, that poor girl needs some better shoes.

Again it's Cabin or Rock Star Suite... Not Room!
I mean the pizza place is great but U didn't go to The Wake! Or the Secret Show... DOH! Ahhh glad U went in the end lol
Balcony furniture is disappointing considering the size
Yeah I agree, it’s fairly basic, although it is an improvement from what we had last year on Valiant Lady
>impossible burger
whyyyyyy
Shockingly I’ve actually found the impossible burger to be nicer than the regular burgers on Virgin Voyages
