    This is our Navigator of the Seas HONEST Cruise Ship Review - where we discuss in detail everything that wowed us aboard Royal Caribbean's Navigator of the Seas, and the elements which we feel need improvement. This Navigator of the Seas Ship Review 2023 has been filmed in 4K Ultra HD, and we talk about cabins and accommodation, entertainment and activities onboard, dining and the general maintenance and condition of this 21 year old cruise ship. Navigator of the Seas is a cruise ship which is owned by Royal Caribbean International, and is the second newest of the Voyager-class of cruise ship.
    Navigator of the Seas is a truly incredible ship, one which was well ahead of her time. In this Navigator of the Seas Ship Review, we'll show you her beautiful pool areas, her theater which seats more than 1200 passengers, the restaurants and eateries, the Escape Room, waterslides and so much more. If you would like to see even more of Navigator of the Seas, deck by deck; make sure you check out our Navigator of the Seas Full Ship Tour Below!

    Our only RC cruise was on Navigator. Our bed was a zero.....the worst we have ever had. Aside from that, Navigator was AMAZING!!! Food was a 10, the shows and entertainment were off the charts!!! The Staff was the best and we LOVED Navigator.

    Ok, I've just watched this video after watching your ship tour from Navigator. One thing that's so clear is that they seem to have crushed so many of the venues from the big Oasis class ships onto here too - I'm so impressed that they still have the ice shows, and so many other similar venues, despite the ship being so much smaller. Thanks for putting this one together - you've helped settle me for later this year!

    • @sailawaymag
      @sailawaymag  Год назад +1

      Thanks for watching Fraser! We agree, she impressed us too! Navigator does not feel like a ship that's more than two decades old, she is actually surprisingly modern. So much to do onboard, and it's always nice being able to walk on the bow as you come into/or depart port. Hope you have a fantastic time :)

    Well done. We will be on the Navigator of the Seas in Dec 23 for New Years eve celebration. We totally agree with you that Royal's deluxe drink package is very expensive. As of today, my sailing has a 30% discount, Regular price $110 per guest per day. Discount price $76.99 per guest per day. Thanks for the video. New subscribers here. Love your style. Love your vibe.

    This was the total oposite experience I had at the MDR. I would say it was some of the best food I had in forever. Really great food and always hot and fresh. Maybe u just got unlucky or I got lucky with the kitchen staff and servers. Befriend your server and they will go out of their way to make sure u get always the best and freshest food

    For an older class of ship in the RC Fleet, she really is holding up very well. Cabins to me still look very nice compared to some other older ships. We would defiantly try this ship, just wish it sailed from closer ports now and again. Great video and very well put together as always

    As always a well thought out video showing exactly what we want to see! Agreed I would be very upset with the half an upside down potato! Esp next to lobster, ship looks lovely esp for her age. Beautifully presented and a true insight. £109 a day for DP even I can’t drink that much!! All things considered I’d still give navigator a go. Rach x

    • @sailawaymag
      @sailawaymag  Год назад

      Thanks for watching as always! She is a great ship, and would happily sail on this class again - Royal Caribbean really do keep up investment into their ship's which is reassuring. The drink packages are ridiculous, the Americans think they are "awesome" value though. The soda package is okay though, that's all we take out with Royal Caribbean!

    Love the info your adding on top of the food, handy to know what exactly it is, also the ship looks so lovely, one we might now consider, as we didn’t even know about this ship prior to your videos! She only goes from LA right? As would be nice if she went from Miami sometimes so the flight wouldn’t be as long!

    • @sailawaymag

    Great review, glad they have not changed johnny rockets to have vegan, as you can get that option elsewhere. We have never had any issues on Indy in the main dinning or windjammer, but Anthem was a terrible dinning experience when we were on back in 2015 when she started sailing, we ended up using windjammer all the time, and would never go back on Anthem again after the terrible dinning experience.
    Not been on Navigator yet, only Indy three times, Anthem once and Explorer once, the drink packages are a joke I couldn't drink $105 a day, only had the drinks package once and that was because on Anthem it was part of the package when we booked the cruise, if memory serves it was only soda and beers and no spirits, even then only had a few pints a day and lots of cola from various machines, as my wife doesn't drink maybe a glass of wine with dinner, but that's it.
    The fact they want EVERYONE in the same cabin to take out the package is a joke.

    Hi, will be on Navigator next week. Didn't purchase a specialty dining package but we plan on having dinner at Izumi for one of the nights. Are you able to reserve once we're on the ship? Or is it only available to people who have a specialty dining package?

    • @sailawaymag
      @sailawaymag  Год назад +2

      Hey Abby, you don’t need a package to dine at Izumi, and you can book once onboard, however we would suggest try booking though the app before embarking to make sure you defiantly get a space, or book as soon as you get onboard as it books up quickly! Happy cruising! ☺️

    Ok here’s my dilemma. I’m on the Westcoast from Los Angeles. I want to take a Royal Carribbean cruise for the first time. I’m tempted to go on navigator but I REALLY wanna sail ICON. I feel like if I book navigator it’ll ruin my cruise appetite and I won’t wanna go on ICON anymore. Also my wife has never been on a cruise and you only get 1 time to make a good first impression. If she doesn’t like cruising on navigator it’ll be difficult to convince her to go on Icon. Any advice?

    • @sailawaymag
      @sailawaymag  11 месяцев назад +1

      Hey guys! Navigator was one of our favourite crusies, so we would defiantly recommend her! As for Icon, she will be more expensive and have bigger crowds, so it would all depend on what you want to get from a cruise, such as destination focused, more facilities on board, a some what quieter experience? We don’t think you’d loose an appetite from sailing on navigator, if anything it would give you the cruising bug and want to try more ships (even bigger ships like Icon!) 😊

    @Nathan7478 11 месяцев назад +1

    The drink package is overpriced unless you plan to drink a lot for the entire cruise. Was not worth it to the wife and I in our being in our 40's but might be a good value to some partiers in there 20's. I would not be able to function drinking as much as you need to get the ROI of the drink package.

    • @sailawaymag
