      Santorini is probably one of the most touristy out of all the islands the tiny islands are just outstanding, so authentic and beautiful. I recommend just island hopping from piraeus. Great video though

    Hey Jess - great vlog!! I did a cruise around Greece too with Celebrity. The shops open late when the ship is on 'international waters' that way they don't have to pay taxes/duties to the country. I'm guessing the shops opened up about an hour or so after gangway went up!! This virgin voyage looks great

    My sister and I just came back to Australia from the exact same cruise. It was amazing. We climbed the steps in Fira instead of taking the cable car as the queues were so long boy did we regret it..we nearly died in the heat. Agree with you about the donkeys think it’s barbaric this day and age and out dated. We saw donkeys without riders struggling in the heat and trying to find shade. We were on the cruise from June 2-9 .. can’t wait for part 2

      I would say that although they are adults only, it gives ‘party vibes’ as it were rather than what I’ve heard about other cruise lines being directed more towards the ‘older’ generation. I’d say the average age was between 25 and 50 on board! Depends what you’re looking for really!

    I think you should have said in the title if was gifted/ ad. If you skip the intro then you wouldn’t have known, plus in description there’s a lot of codes but no mention of gifted/ ad, so it’s not clear if it’s an ad or just helpful information…

    • @TheSliceOfJess
      @TheSliceOfJess  Месяц назад +1

      The video is listed as an AD through the upload process on RUclips so also showcases across the screen that it contains a promotion at the beginning of the video, as well as me saying it verbally. The part in the description that I put on all my videos that says '*Some links in the description may be affiliate or promotion*' also covers this. Therefore it is clearly stated in three separate ways. I've followed ASA guidelines regarding disclosure, unfortunately if you chose to skip the parts of the video which include this then I can't help that.
