I LOVE your ship tours! They are so informative and make you feel like you "have been here before" when you first step on the ship! Thanks for all the work you put into these GREAT tour videos!
Best ship tour I have EVER seen on RUclips! I just today booked the Vista for September 2024 in a Spa Balcony. Sailing solo and at $241/night could not pass up the opportunity. I will be checking out more of your videos. Thanks!!
What a great video and ship tour. Very well done. Thank you for taking the time to do this for everyone. I really like the insert showing where you were at all times.
@@NogVlog 👍 sure thing. Also the stick with the little hand is a neat addition, very cool. Have you tried or filmed the Vista thermal spa area? I’ve used the spa on the Breeze, and wondering how Vista compares.
Vista is sister ship to the Horizon and Panorama, but layout is still overall very much akin to the Dream class ships like the Magic and Breeze. Major differences are the theater layout (not as good as Magic), Havana cabins and pool area, and more berths on the Vista.
This is awesome. I will be on the Vista in 11 days. I’m excited. Hopefully it won’t be crazy crowded as it is school time lol. I’m not much for kids. Thank you for the video it was informative.
We sail on October 8. Very excited. Thank you for the video. I want to make a concerted effort to check everything out this time. We tend to stay in the same place.
Via the HUB app once you are onboard, just scroll and find them in the planner. There is usually at least a two tours across a 7 day sailing, but not sure which days they try to make them fall on. If they are sold out keep checking in case someone cancels.
14:13 we do a quick peek inside Camp Ocean, which is the kids area for ages 0 to 11. They divide the kids into ages 0-2 (Turtles) 3-5 (Penguins), 6-8 (Stingrays) and 9-11 (Sharks).
We are sailing at the end of January - I was hoping they cut the smoking in the gambling area. I am on O2 and it messes my concentrator up, and makes me ill.
Thank you for the thorough tour! We are set to sail 17 Dec, and Ill probably go through the video several times before we go. So its been several years since we have done a Carnival Cruise. I selected the Anytime dining over the set time dining. I didn't see any advantage to choosing set time. Can you explain any pros and cons that would lead one (as you indicated you did) to choose the set time dining? Does this mean I will not have any access to the Reflections restaurant because I selected the Anytime dining?
Set time is good for when having same staff each night is helpful, such as with younger kids they learn fast on their likes and dislikes or even for grown up habits as well. You can request same staff for anytime but it may mean waiting longer when you come to your checkin ready notification. 6pm set time was our go to for awhile but we found it really limits your afternoon planning knowing you have to shower and get ready in the 5pm hour, so we’ve switched to anytime from here on out. One last thing to consider if your flying is any time zone changes that your stomach might not appreciate 🤣
Limelight Lounge turns into nightclub every evening. Adult comedy shows are great too. Finally, the casino is great way to keep the fun going late night/early morning if you don't mind smelling like an ash try after.
I have never found a need for a fan. But everyone is different. If you have an interior room you should be fine without. Balconies or even oceanview rooms that let light in can get pretty warm if you don't keep the shades closed when not in the room, so keep that in mind.
We try to shoot particular areas at different times with less traffic. This sailing was first of after school let out for summer so it was definitely packed otherwise!
I just booked the Vista for Feb of 2024 on a 3 day Bahamas Cruise. Can you tell me what might be limited on such a short cruise and will there be a formal night? My last cruise was on the Splendor to the Mexican Riviera in 2012 so that says how long it has been since I have been on a cruise lol and what I may not understand about today's differences in cruising.
Formal night will be the evening of the first full night (day two). Otherwise it will be much like any other sailing just less total activities since you have less total days. You will still have the casino when at sea, shows and comics and other live entertainment each evening and trivia and games during the day.
If I don't mention it as otherwise, its included in your cruise fare. So yes the gym (and sauna) and Serenity Fresh Creations are all included. Specialty restaurants (Steakhouse, Bonsai Sushi, Cucina del Capitano [evenings], Ji Ji Asian Kitchen [evenings], Seafood Shack), IMAX movies, spa treatments and of course alcohol are additional costs. Visit the Carnival.com website and look up the Vista and at the bottom of the page each venue will be listed as included or additional cost.
Just not in the casino when open (they may ask you to not film when closed as well), not during comedy shows, and not when going through security. Otherwise you're pretty much free to film wherever. We try to not film the kids areas unless they are closed as well.
👋Hi Nog Vlog family! 📝Leave a comment below letting us know when you are sailing or hoping to sail on the Carnival Vista! 🚢
Thank you for a GREAT video. I love the little map you had. Not sure how you did that but really cool! Dec 10th 2023!
Probably the best tour of Vista that I have seen thank you
Thanks for watching and taking time to comment!
We were just on the Vista last week. Your video showed me more of the ship than I saw when I was on it! Great video and we loved the Vista!!!
I wish I saw this before I went I had to look at the maps by the elevators everywhere I went I got off when you got on
Ha the ultimate metric of success, thank you
I am 2:44 into this video and I love it already. The POINTER IS EVERYTHING!!! I also love the floating arrow on the map as you move. Thank you
Appreciate the comment, we really do!
I LOVE your ship tours! They are so informative and make you feel like you "have been here before" when you first step on the ship! Thanks for all the work you put into these GREAT tour videos!
Thanks for the kind words! Things are busy but hope to have the Breeze tour done soon as well 😀
My wife and are have watched several videos about the Vista and yours is the best.
Appreciate the comment, thanks for watching!
This pointer hand is the best of the best😂😂😂. Great video
Thanks for watching!
I thought the little hand was corny at first, then I found it useful as was the “real time” map you used. I’m gonna have to subscribe. Good job
BTW.. We were on the Vista inaugural cruise out of Italy, a 14 day delight.
Appreciate it
Best ship tour I have EVER seen on RUclips! I just today booked the Vista for September 2024 in a Spa Balcony. Sailing solo and at $241/night could not pass up the opportunity. I will be checking out more of your videos. Thanks!!
Wow, thank you!
I love your shop tour video of the Carnival Vista. The little map makes a big difference so I know where you are on the ship.
We love it too! And we are glad you found it helpful!
What a great video and ship tour. Very well done. Thank you for taking the time to do this for everyone. I really like the insert showing where you were at all times.
So glad it was helpful!
Sailing 12/2023. I really enjoyed the video seeing the whole ship.
Thanks for watching! Watch again throughout the year if you need to scratch the itch 😉
Great video. Love the finger pointer. 😊😊
Thanks for watching!!
First time I watched one of your videos. Just subscribed. Great ship tour. I’m hooked. Great job.
Welcome aboard!
Subscribed! I’ll second Darrell’s comment. These are great tours you guys have done. We are sailing on the Vista soon so this is a nice intro.
Happy it’s helpful…watch it as many times as you need 😂
@@NogVlog 👍 sure thing. Also the stick with the little hand is a neat addition, very cool. Have you tried or filmed the Vista thermal spa area? I’ve used the spa on the Breeze, and wondering how Vista compares.
March 18,2023. Delayed 25 Anniversary trip due to Covid in March of 2020. Cannot wait to set sail. Thank you so much for the Tour
Have a blast and happy anniversary come March!
You do a wonderful job on your ship tours!!!! Beautiful family!
Thank you so much!
We watched the video and received a lot of information. Thanks for the information. We are cruising in April 2025.
Sailing August thank you for the video.
It will get here quick, hope you have fun!
What a great tour! My cruise can’t come fast enough.
They never do 😁
Boarding Vista a week from today.
Thank you for the great video
Have fun!
I agree with you about the pianist on the Vista this summer. My SIL and I both mentioned it in our survey.
I am pretty harsh on all the piano bars, but yes that guy was our least favorite to experience.
Very comprehensive tour, thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Great tour
Similar to the Magic
Vista is sister ship to the Horizon and Panorama, but layout is still overall very much akin to the Dream class ships like the Magic and Breeze. Major differences are the theater layout (not as good as Magic), Havana cabins and pool area, and more berths on the Vista.
Hi I enjoy your videos
Thanks 🥰
This is awesome. I will be on the Vista in 11 days. I’m excited. Hopefully it won’t be crazy crowded as it is school time lol. I’m not much for kids. Thank you for the video it was informative.
You should be good (low kids) if sailing before Thanksgiving week!
happy tour!
happy comment! :-)
We sail on October 8. Very excited. Thank you for the video. I want to make a concerted effort to check everything out this time. We tend to stay in the same place.
Have fun and enjoy the Halloween themes!
I am going there in six weeks!
What a great video,, Nov 5 is our sail date..
Have fun!
Thanks for the great video. How do you sign up for a brewery tour? Is it on a certain day of the tour?
Via the HUB app once you are onboard, just scroll and find them in the planner. There is usually at least a two tours across a 7 day sailing, but not sure which days they try to make them fall on. If they are sold out keep checking in case someone cancels.
Great video. Did have a question. Is there not a kids club for kids 11 years old and under? Maybe I missed it in the video.
14:13 we do a quick peek inside Camp Ocean, which is the kids area for ages 0 to 11. They divide the kids into ages 0-2 (Turtles) 3-5 (Penguins), 6-8 (Stingrays) and 9-11 (Sharks).
Appreciate the update!
We are sailing at the end of January - I was hoping they cut the smoking in the gambling area. I am on O2 and it messes my concentrator up, and makes me ill.
Sorry, it’s been back for a while and likely not going anywhere, and sadly pretty bad on the Vista on deck 4 near the casino outskirts
@@NogVlog But the Casino itself is smoke free correct?
@@Orens80s No, the casino is smoking so long as you are seated and gambling
Great video. Do most Vista ships have Pandora stores? Thanks.
Thanks for watching. To my knowledge the other Vista class ships (Horizon and Panorama) do not have a Pandora store.
i went on this ship like 4-5 years ago ✨✨
Time to go again, what do ya say!?
We will be on the Vista September 3rd.
Just missed the testing changes, bummer! Have fun!!
Thank you for the thorough tour! We are set to sail 17 Dec, and Ill probably go through the video several times before we go. So its been several years since we have done a Carnival Cruise. I selected the Anytime dining over the set time dining. I didn't see any advantage to choosing set time. Can you explain any pros and cons that would lead one (as you indicated you did) to choose the set time dining? Does this mean I will not have any access to the Reflections restaurant because I selected the Anytime dining?
Correct, you likely won’t have any function in Reflections unless it ends up being your muster station
Set time is good for when having same staff each night is helpful, such as with younger kids they learn fast on their likes and dislikes or even for grown up habits as well. You can request same staff for anytime but it may mean waiting longer when you come to your checkin ready notification. 6pm set time was our go to for awhile but we found it really limits your afternoon planning knowing you have to shower and get ready in the 5pm hour, so we’ve switched to anytime from here on out. One last thing to consider if your flying is any time zone changes that your stomach might not appreciate 🤣
I’ll be sailing out in July. Hows the night life? Druing days it’s for the kids. But @night wife n I wana enjoy our self’s also😉😜
Limelight Lounge turns into nightclub every evening. Adult comedy shows are great too. Finally, the casino is great way to keep the fun going late night/early morning if you don't mind smelling like an ash try after.
Curious how none of the deck chairs were full when sailing? I didn't think that was possible
IIRC, filmed the tour mid-morning on last sea day. Maybe by then folks were less greedy to get out and get a spot there on the lido deck...
Should i bring a fan for the cabin??
I have never found a need for a fan. But everyone is different. If you have an interior room you should be fine without. Balconies or even oceanview rooms that let light in can get pretty warm if you don't keep the shades closed when not in the room, so keep that in mind.
Sailing in Dec.Have never been.
Enjoy your cruise!
How did you get video with so few people on the ship
We try to shoot particular areas at different times with less traffic. This sailing was first of after school let out for summer so it was definitely packed otherwise!
About to take our first cruise. You recommend this ship?
We wouldn’t recommend this ship until it goes through a dry dock to fix some propulsion issues
@@NogVlog Thanks!

We set sail 3/18/23. First time booking a cove balcony. 4th Carnival cruise.
Some day we will try a Cove Balcony. Some day...
It would be great to know what you have to pay extra for… do I pay extra to use the gym? Was the salad bar free?
If I don't mention it as otherwise, its included in your cruise fare. So yes the gym (and sauna) and Serenity Fresh Creations are all included. Specialty restaurants (Steakhouse, Bonsai Sushi, Cucina del Capitano [evenings], Ji Ji Asian Kitchen [evenings], Seafood Shack), IMAX movies, spa treatments and of course alcohol are additional costs. Visit the Carnival.com website and look up the Vista and at the bottom of the page each venue will be listed as included or additional cost.
Are you allowed to video? Are there any areas you are not allowed to video?
Just not in the casino when open (they may ask you to not film when closed as well), not during comedy shows, and not when going through security. Otherwise you're pretty much free to film wherever. We try to not film the kids areas unless they are closed as well.
You didn't mention the smoking areas. I'm so tired of being treated unfairly.
Please watch again. 13:03 - 13:43 - 45:30
I love your pointy finger
It's magical!
Guessing didn’t likely make it to the fitness center either.. if didn’t hit the salad bar
The ship tour is our treadmill!
