I like your usual format on Suitcase Monkey, but I also like this format for Carry-on Monkey ...feels informal, like catching up with a friend after their return. Maybe keep up this format for the slightly "less epic" trips? nice way to get content out more quickly, but then we still get the treat of your more cinematic-style videos when they are ready.
For the motion sickness, I have the same issue (both boats and plane flights) but I recently found the one medicine that completely nullifies the nausea for me. Where I live it's called "Postafen" can be bought over the counter here, it contains meclizine hydrochloride and is a histamine H1 antagonist used in the treatment of motion sickness, vertigo, and nausea. I take one tablet 1 hour before the boat ride or flight, the effect lasts for 12 hours and the only side effect I notice is that it makes me a little tired. But on the upside, ZERO nausea. It's like day and night compared to before and all other medicines I've tried. From some small googling, the UK version of this medicine is (aptly) called "Sea-Legs", it also contains meclizine hydrochloride and similarly is a histamine H1 antagonist. Of course you should probably call your doctor just to check though if you think it's worth trying it. :)
My husband n I went to Mauritius for our honeymoon back in 2000. Stayed in a hotel in the area of Le Morne. It was absolutely amazing. Did all the excursions you’ve suggested. Thank you for your insight. I’m hoping the hospitality there is back to the high quality they provided us.
The shot of the monkey with the mountain ranges in the background was beautiful! Great video as always! Really looking forward to your Morocco video. I would've gone if you hadn't inspired me to go to Japan 🤷♀️😂
Haha. I'm not actually gonna be making a video for Morocco as I'm gonna be enjoying myself with the group! (I actually get to fully enjoy a holiday haha) There is an early Suitcase Monkey video from Morocco though, pre voice over days! ruclips.net/video/ECGPvC0q6Pg/видео.html
I also suffer from motion sickness and can recommend something that’s not medicinal but really works. I bought these bracelets that look like the sponge ones tennis players use to wipe out their sweat. They have a small ball that presses on the wrist and prevents motion sickness. They’re amazing, I wore them for 6 hours on a boat trip and no sea sickness at all!
Went to school with a friend from Mauritius! Appreciate the honest view of the hotel, those leftover glasses, not great. We too love botanical gardens, such a great insight into what it would be without "us"
Enjoyed watching this😊 We went to same hotel I think a couple of weeks after you. It wasn't good to start, but it ended up really good. They went out of their way to correct or improve issues quickly. The food especially. Covid did cause widespread damage in the industry. This was our 2nd visit to the island (in 2019 previously, where we stayed further north in 5* luxury) Also went on the speed boat tour, which I would normally avoid (prefer sailing), but it was fun after all. Mauritius is very beautiful and not just about the rum!! Try Takamaka wine - made from lychee's - incredible.
Went all the sites you saw in Mauritius 🇲🇺 back in 2007 for my honeymoon. At that time I got sunburnt there in February. So beware that January/ February is very hot, as Mauritius is in the Southern Hemisphere 😮
Sometimes it’s different to share a review of something that overall has not been a great experience, so firstly I would say being true to yourself and therefore your “audience/followers” is essential in maintaining your brand as a trustworthy presenter. That said I thought the review was balanced and calling out issues which is what I personally always expect. Last as mentioned previously take a look at Tofino cheers k/r John
Brave of you guys to travel so far in 2021. I couldn’t do it at all. 😂 Maybe the hotel service was not so great, due to the pandem!c? I know many hotels fired many employees, hence why hotels were extremely understaffed. Thank you for the honest review!
Poor Chiaki, I have motion sickness, too and it’s horrible. Large boats are fine, but that small, loopy one would have been terrible. I do take Dramamine, but sometimes it can only do so much.
always good to see your vids, carry on more carry on monkey :-0 there was one thing i want to ask is it possible to see the stills taken by your other half, Id love to view them
Great video…thank u … perhaps the boat ride drivers might offer both leisure & crazy rides. I would not have enjoyed the party scene ride either. I enjoy your humour. Greetings from 🇨🇦
Well we are 2 for 2 now on party boats (St Lucia is the second which I may release at some point) but we are definitely going to be more inquisitive in future!
Question: when you guys were there, was COVID-19 vaccine required? Hubby and I were in Malta (Aug. 2021). We chose Malta, because it’s 3 hours flight. They were very strict: fully vaxxed and masked up. We really enjoyed Malta and it’s island Gozo.
Yes. Fully vaxxed, and a negative test on arrival taken at home and then a test when you arrive at the hotel. It was well organised which was why we chose the country at the time
Am from Mauritius..being some1 who work in hotel before but now i work in cruise ship ,well am glad you share your view with through this video well i want to mention that this hotel you stay do look like an 3 star not 4 star hotel aswel for this dirty glass all over the hotel area must be report direct to hotel manager and get an compensation for your stay also as it doesn't look a proper place to stay from my experience working in hotel in year 2006 to 2009 i have never seen this kind of situation ,this hotel you stay the hotel directer mush be ashame hope they see your video so they would learn from it.
I was shocked when I heard and saw that the Mauritians used dynamite when fishing which was about 15 years ago. Hopefully, the government has banned the use of dynamite. This is why there are are hardly any tropical fish. Terrible.
It was actually a 4* hotel but only just reopened after pandemic. They improved quite quickly - we went same hotel 2 weeks later and they were doing their best to correct issues. There were lots of staff shortages in the industry at the time. The dirty glasses was not an issue 2 weeks after this video was shot

I like your humor. It’s great to hear an honesty evaluation.
Your wife was keeping it together on that boat ride 😅
She’s a trooper! 😍

Rum camera work is the best camera work 😂
Oh I missed your videos! Another one very informative and helpful thank you!

We have been. We share in the same opinion about Mauritius. Great stuff guys ! 👍👍 Jim and Harriet
Nice work. Always entertaining. All my best, Will

That’s interesting you say that. We actually just bought them a few weeks ago. Haven’t been able to test yet but good to hear they work for you

We were there June 2022, weather wasnt the best, but what a beautiful island. we also done a few of the trips you did.

Let me guess, the life changing thing is moving to the US. Or Canada
Ballpark but nope!
@@CarryOnMonkey oh so you are moving somewhere more exciting?😁
Maybe for a while 👀
@@CarryOnMonkey haha well I’m excited for you guys!
So you pay for a 3 stars hotel and you expect 6 stars services. Better pay for service my friend. Don't blame cheap hotel for cheap service.
Wow. Maybe listen properly then we can discuss.

Thanks for sharing your experience! I was hoping that was the case.
