I call Southampton my home (by choice not birth) and think it is *such* an underrated city. Thanks for shining a spotlight on some great choices, though as you say it's just scratching the surface, there's also our lovely central parks, southampton common, bedford place, the cultural quarter with galleries and theatres, cafes, multicultural cuisine and breweries, craft beer, and plenty of vibrant suburbs with their own identities. And it is a city that is constantly becoming more visitor friendly, walkable and attractive
Nice to see you showing everyone what Southampton has to offer, we have friends there that we visit & I’m intrigued by a couple of places you showed! But you’ve got to love the Dancing Man Brewery, it’s a great place😁👍 also worth a mention is the Platform Tavern just down the road towards the cruise terminals nr Queens Park!
That last bar looks fascinating, more for the ‘younger’ element than the likes of me though. The cocktails looked fabulous as did the food in the South Indian restaurant. Hope you are enjoying your cruise.
Your timing is fantastic. We're booked for the holiday inn upon arrival in South Hampton next month. We weren't sure about everything we wanted to see while there, now we have a much better idea! Thanks so much!
Love telling my work group chat I'm going to bed with Jamie now 😂... My closest just know!! "Oh it's her cruise boyfriend" lol xx looking forward to the next!! 🚢 X
Been watching your vlogs about Iona, very good videos. Slightly odd question, where do you get the ice from? Does it come with the room? First time cruiser here going on a cruise to the fjords. Keep up the good work best cruise vlogs I've seen!
Let’s do Southampton 🙌🙌🙌
I used to live there many years ago. It was great hearing Ryan's accent
Ryan is from Bristol, but the way!
I really need to spend more than 1 night in Southampton 😮so much to do 🎉👍
Plenty to do for sure 👍
Aww how did I not see you. Our boat is berthed on town quay marina ( next to starbucks) you could have popped on board for a pre cruise coffee😄
🙏🙏🙏
Fab presentation Jamie. So much to do in Southampton. Dark Arts Bar sounds fun!
It’s such a cool bar

Ask your cabin steward to bring ice each day 👍

Hythe is lovely. Lot of happy memories there
Make sure to go to Vibrant Forest when you're over there
What was the cruise ship at Mayflower? Great video as always.
