Cruise Vacation Showdown: Which itinerary is better?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 мар 2024
- During a discussion at home while looking at cruises we would like to take, a question was asked; Which of the European cruises that we took last year was our favorite and would absolutely do again if we had the opportunity.
In this video we talk about the Greek Isles cruise we took aboard Odyssey of the Seas and the Western Mediterranean cruise we took on Symphony of the Seas. We go over each of the ports and the ships and discuss what we liked and which one was our favorite.
The Greek Isles cruise featured spectacular Santorini, Amazing Mykonos, Incredible Kusadasi, and wonderful Naples. It was also home ported in one of favorite places, Rome!
Does this cruise stack up against a worthy challenger in the Western Mediterranean cruise featuring pretty Palma de Mallorca, majestic Marseille, Picturesque La Spezia, with the Eternal City Rome, and the gateway to the Amalfi Coast; Naples.
Did we like Barcelona, Spain as a home port or was Rome that much better?
What about the ships? How does Odyssey of the Seas stack up against an Oasis-Class Goliath like Oasis or Allure of the Seas.
Which one of these bucket-list type cruises would you choose?
If you’ve sailed on either of these cruises which was your favorite?
The restaurant we mentioned in Naples, Italy was Antica Trattoria da Peppino.

Great video. We have done western mediterranian on Wonder of the seas. Great cruise.
This year we are going on Celebrity Silhouette eastern mediterranian from Athens to Mykonos Santorini Kusadasi, Crete, Rhodes and an overnight in Istanbul and 3 sea days. Very excited. As you guys have been on the Reflection- do you think We will enjoy Silhouette which are sister ship?
We were very surprised how much we enjoyed Reflection and as long as the activities and the upkeep are similar you should enjoy Silhouette.
It will be more subdued than a cruise aboard a ship like Wonder but I think Silhouette will be a perfect ship for that itinerary.
Looking at those ports and still having 3 seas days, we’re jealous and I’m probably going to check some websites to see if we can book a similar itinerary in the next couple years.
thank you so much. my wife and i have only done the caribbean itineraries from port canaveral and lauderdale being from florida. its intimidating planning for these bigger itineraries but you have steered me in the right direction and i feel much more confident. thank you! keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for the compliment! We felt the same way when we were booking our first big trip, it’s one of the reasons we wanted to make these videos. Which itinerary are you leaning towards?
Great info! I’m looking to pick one for next summer. I think y’all have swayed me towards the Greek isles!
Thank you so much for watching and the compliment. We absolutely loved the Greek isles and would go back in a heartbeat. Let us know what itinerary you choose!
This helped a lot! Thanks!
No problem, thank you for watching! Let us know which ship and itinerary you go with!
Great video going on the Greek isles in June.
Thank you for watching. Really hope you enjoy the Greek isles as much as we did. Are you doing the same itinerary that we did with Santorini, Mykonos, and Kusadasi?
@@letsgetwanderlost yes. Any tips on debarkation? We will be going with our two kids. We purchased The key in hopes it’s better. Not a lot of videos on the subject of getting off and on the ship.
@carolinaaquino8933 getting off the ship is obviously our least favorite part. But a couple days into the cruise you’ll get an alert on the app asking what type of debarkation you’d like, self or assisted.
With assisted you’ll put numbered tags on your luggage and Royal Caribbean takes all of them the night before you get off of the ship. Then the morning of debarkation you’ll just wait around until they call the number that was on your tag.
With the Key you’ll be able to get a special breakfast and you can choose when you get off of the ship.
What Nicole and I do, is we leave our stuff in the room and go get breakfast, we then later collect our stuff and go check out some suites or rooms we were interested in. As long as you stay out of the way of people trying to clean all the rooms they’re usually very inviting. After that we get a coffee and something to drink and hangout on the promenade until our number is called.
Royal does a pretty good job of making it seamless.
We normally have our transportation arranged before we get off of the ship, this includes what shuttle or car service we’ll be using and a solid plan of where we need to go.
Great video. We did the Western Meditteranean with Norwegian Prima last year in November 23 (no sea days). We are planning September 2024 RC Odessey of the seas but are concerned about 3 sea days as prone to motion sickness. Grateful for your comments regarding whether there were rough seas in your Greek Island cruise with Odessey and which month did you sail. Thanks.
We sailed the first week of June this past year. I’m prone to motion sickness as well but we didn’t have any issues with rough seas during that cruise. Pretty smooth sailing from what I remember.
How was Prima? We’ve been looking at a cruise with Norwegian and Prima, Viva, and Aqua are at the top of our list to check out with that brand.
Thank you so much for watching.
Good video. I am going on a western 10 cruise barcelona to treste italy in 19 days. We have only done carnival and this time NCL. WE AGREE LOTS OF ports only 1 sea day. One of reason we did not choose Rc
We found balance in all day and short. Also I will let you know if Ncl was a good choice.
That sounds like an amazing trip. Which ship is it on? Definitely let us know how it is.
