Hi! Tracy and James. Reliving this awesome trip with awesome people. Pray that all is well with you guys, and I look forward to maybe another trip in the future! Well done footage! LOL. 💯 😍😎………
Hi Mrs. Marsha,thanks for watching. As we are putting the videos together it feels like we are reliving it as well. Another trip together would be awesome. All is well for us.
This was an amazing video. Thank you for sharing all of the helpful information. We have Royal Caribbean on our list ships to sail on soon. The campfire cookies looks delicious. Verify with the hotel if you can drop luggage off is a huge tip. Gelato is amazing. Great video!!
Thanks for watching, I’m glad you found the video helpful. We have sailed with Carnival, Celebrity and now Royal Caribbean. We were just on Carnival Mardi Gras in January and she became my favorite. However, Odyssey of The Seas is my new favorite (for now 🙂). The ship is elegant and lots of vibrant colors. It’s a different vibe from Carnival - more chilled but I loved it.
Hello. If you’d like, you can watch our video that reviews the hotel that we stayed in. It was more of a boutique hotel but very convenient. It also had an elevator ~ a lot of the hotels in Italy do not have elevators. ruclips.net/video/nYCwq6X4pWY/видео.html
I would say fix time. My time dinning isn’t as flexible as I’d like. If you go that route then you might want to book each night as soon as you get on the ship. We thought you just use the app to make a reservation when you are ready for dinner each day. To our surprise the only times available was 9:00 or later because folks knew to book days in advance.
@@rajeshm0620 We got back early in the morning. When we woke up we were already dock and I think that was around 5:30 or 6:00. Our shuttle picked us up around 7:15.
@@thetravelingtype2070 thank you, you are the best! Did you do the Royal Caribbean airport transfer?I am very grateful to come across your content. Thank you again
@@rajeshm0620 I’m so glad you found our videos useful! 😊 We did not use Royal Caribbean’s airport transfer. It was 5 of us so it was cheaper to get our own transportation. We used Stefano’s RomeCabs Airport/Cruise Transportation (information below). www.romecabs.com/ Call: US & CANADA: 011 39 - 339 3525 028 EMAIL: info@romecabs.com
It depends on the itinerary and what you enjoy. We pick based on the sunsets which is the starboard side (considering most of our cruises have been traveling in a southern or eastern direction). If you enjoy the sunrise then you should pick a room on the port side. Other than that, no real difference in my opinion.
We loved Odyssey. It is an amazing ship! Even though we were on a 12 day voyage, there was so much on the ship that we missed. I think I need a second sailing.😉
Hi🙏🏻 Thank you for your amazing video. It is helpful to us to prepare my cruise plan (Greece, Turkey, Israel ,Naples…..)We 6 person have a plan to the Odyssey cruise on October 2023 , I thought the sea view of your cabin sooooo beautiful 👍👍👍👍😀, would you tell us which deck ? Stateroom no. ? If we want to book a balcony stateroom to get the beautiful sea view, what’s we have to know , to take a attention? 😅! Thank you so much 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. ( I’m sorry …my English is bad, sometimes I don’t understand your talk in the video! 😢). Thanks again 😊🙏🏻
We were on deck 12 cabin number 12624. It was mid ship and convenient to most things. Thanks for watching our video, I hope you enjoy your trip as much as we enjoyed ours.
Hello the food tour we went on was: The Roman Food Tour in Trastevere: www.viator.com/tours/Rome/The-Roman-Food-tour-in-Trastevere/d511-12438P4?mcid=61846
Just subscribed to your channel! You came across as a suggestion on IG! Always willing to support fellow content creators! Will be checking out the series!
Hello. You will not use cash onboard. Everything is tied to your room key. If you get on the ship before 1:30ish, your cabin might not be ready so you might want to have your bathing suit handy. You can bring a bottle of wine or champagne onboard as well as a12 pack of canned sodas or non alcoholic drinks. Don’t forget meds that you might need (pack them in your carry on bag). See if there is a FaceBook group for your sailing. Usually some helpful information is posted and even some activities that are being put together to get to know the folks that will be on your sailing. You might want to have something for sea sickness just in case. I don’t like taking medication so I would suggest sea bands, you can get them from Walmart, Amazon or Walgreens. Research the ports that you are going to so that you can make the most of your time there -GET BACK TO THE SHIP ON TIME! They will leave you if you are not back on time. Always carry the ships contact information with you for emergencies. If you book an excursion through the ship they will wait for you if the tour gets back late. Sign up for activities in advance if possible, if not do it as soon as you get onboard. Download the cruise app before you get onboard. Really consider travel insurance - its a must for us. One of those over the door shoe organizers come in handy to keep your toiletries and other things organized. I hope this helps.
Thanks for watching! I am a travel agent in my spare time, but a friend that we traveled with was familiar with Italy so she booked most of these tours. The hotel name is 9Hotel Cesàri www.9-hotel-cesari-rome.it
@@JA-qw2gg Hello, We did not have the key. When we gave our bags to the porters we asked “where do we go from here?”. His response was “follow me.” We followed him and he just pointed us to the security line. I think because we got there so early there was no wait for security. One thing that I did notice is that the folks in Rome did not start their day that early. The line to get on the ship did not start getting long until 1:00 or 2:00.
We tested at a pharmacy that was around the corner from our hotel. They have pharmacies on just about every other corner. If you are staying at a hotel, I wold suggest asking them where the nearest pharmacy is. It was an easy process. We did have to show our passports.
Hi. I just subscribed to your channel. My mom and I fly there October 26 to spend four days in Rome before we board the Odyssey for the transatlantic cruise. I can’t wait to finish watching your videos and get some tips. Look for a shout out on my channel when I start my vlog about Rome.
I think you all will have a great time. I LOVE Italy! Odeyssey of The Seas is an amazing ship. I can’t wait to see your vlog. It will be interesting to see it from your view point. Going to subscribe and turn on notifications now to make sure we don’t miss it. We also did a few videos while in Rome if you are interested, you can check those out.
@@cruisingwithcarol FYI: Next year there is a Vlogger Cruise on Norwegian Breakaway out of New Orleans where we are planning to get more exposure from other channels that will be there! The dates are Jan 29th - Feb 5th 2023. Some of the channels that will be on the cruise are: Sharon@Sea; AKA Adventures; La Lido Loca; Cruising with Josh; Parodeejay; JJ Cruise etc. Hope to see you on a cruise one day, hit us on IG if you have any questions! Happy Safe Cruising!

Thank you for this video! My family is going 2024.
This is my favorite cruise. I hope your family enjoys it as much as we did. Thanks for watching!
The foot rest under the balcony chair is a nice detail.
Nice video 👍🏽 Cruise 🚢 day is always excitement!!
We are leaving from Rome on odyssey next October so this was great info!
Any hotel tour info is greatly appreciated.

So cool. Thanks for sharing. So you flew overseas to go on the cruise?
Yes we had to fly into Italy.
Cool shirts!!! Huge ship it is! Nice big room too. Is this a larger than most room s selection?
This was just a standard ocean view balcony on this ship.
@@thetravelingtype2070 Wow...nice
I see my Frat in the Gold heading down the stairs. 8:47 mark.

I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Really cool review.... hope you're trip was fantastic... what camara did you use? Really good
We really enjoyed this trip! We used the GoPro for most of it but we also switched between the GroPro and the DJI PocketII.
Great video, I will be doing the same cruise soon. Would you recommend fix time dining or my time dining?
I would say fix time. My time dinning isn’t as flexible as I’d like. If you go that route then you might want to book each night as soon as you get on the ship.

Hello :) do you recall what room # and floor you were on, not sure if I missed that
Hello we stayed in cabin 12954 on deck 12.
Great video! New subscribers here!
you guys are wonderful, thank you. would you suggest port side or starboard side balcony room?
It depends on the itinerary and what you enjoy. We pick based on the sunsets which is the starboard side (considering most of our cruises have been traveling in a southern or eastern direction). If you enjoy the sunrise then you should pick a room on the port side. Other than that, no real difference in my opinion.
I’m catching up your videos now. You guys have been to some amazing places. We’ll be on the Odyssey in Nov. did you like it?

We had 5 suitcases so we tipped 20 euros. I hope you all enjoy your trip as much as we did. If you have any other questions, let us know.
