Hey everyone!! Like & Subscribe for continuous cruise content! Stayed tuned for the rest of the Carnival Celebration vlog and our next cruise out to Alaska on Royal Caribbean's Ovation OTS! Thanks for watching and Happy Cruising!! 🍻😎☀
Everytime I cruise Royal I say I'm going to stay only Royal, Then I start missing the Carnival Passengers I've met over time. Love the Royal Ships, Love the Carnival Passengers. The Carnival Oasis of the Seas would be my favorite.
Haha I love that!! We made so many friends on this cruise, I can't wait for the Jubilee. We love the diamond perks with Royal a lot it definitely plays a factor when we are booking. Thanks for watching!! 😎☀️🍻
I found you guys accidentally. You guys are the cutest couple and my husband and I love watching your cruise vlogs! You both seem so fun and genuine. Keep up the good work! Looking forward to your next cruise vlogs, in the meantime we'll be binging your previous sailings!
Yay!! Thank you so much and welcome to the channel. We're glad you're enjoying the videos 😊 We love looking back on our old cruises for the memories, we have so much fun making them 🍻😎☀️
We have been on Royal Caribbean,Norwiegn and Carnival and we love Carnival will not go back to the others ! Enjoy your trips !! We have so many friends from our Carnival Cruises that we still keep in touch with ❣
I hadn't been on Royal in years and finally returned a few months ago. I was missing Carnival the whole time lol. We may give Royal another try tho. With Carnival, just make sure you try a newer ship. Their old ships are the best
I enjoy your vlogs. It’s nice seeing your perspective of a Carnival ship being new to the line. I’m taking my three daughters on the celebration in 3 weeks. Can’t wait. I like the tip about the outdoor seating for the Italian restaurant.
Thank you!! We’re glad you’re enjoying the videos 😊 You and your daughters are going to have an awesome vacation we had so much fun on this cruise!! If you can, definitely get outside if the weather is right! Thanks for watching and have a wonderful time!! 😎🍻☀️
Thank you!! We had a lovely day, even though it was pretty simple we loved rewatching the video together and made a nice cruising memory! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
Haha 🤣 It was surprisingly a lot of fun and we created a nice memory and it didn't cost much for the kite 🪁 I hope you and your husband have a wonderful time!! 😎🍻☀️
Love your videos. We will be on the Celebration for Christmas and New Years doing a B2B. We will be doing a B2B on the Venezia for Christmas and New Years 2024. Will be on Carnival Panorama for July 4th 2024. You need to just cruise more Carnival to get the perks. We are Diamond with Carnival. One thing to mention when on the Excel class ships and you like the patio, they do offer diner for free each night in Summer Landing. The menu changes nightly. you need to check it out on the Jubilee.
Thank you so much!! Wow you have some awesome cruises coming up!! We've always wanted to do a New years cruise. Great tip about the summer landing we will definitely try it, we can't wait for the Jubilee 🍻😎☀️
we have not cruised royal because we are trying to get to platinum on carnival we have 3 more 7 day cruises to go to get to platinum then we will try royal
We were at the “Home of the pina colada” in 2019 and there was no line, we were in San Juan getting on a cruise, it wasn’t a stop for us. I still have a pic of my drink and it was much larger and very “yellow” in colour lol. It was delicious. It’s possible they changed it or it was just to busy when you guys were there.
Ya I can imagine when there’s not a couple big ships in port the line would be much better! Yeah I wonder if they do things different when there’s a cruise in town or not, I didn’t think of that! 😎🍻☀️
@@ryanandkala Who knows, they might have changed- like many things post Covid! Smaller drinks for more money :) San Juan is such a cool city though, I also loved embarking on a cruise there!
Thank you so much!! NCL is definitely on our list we’ve heard such good things. Eventually we’ll try all the cruise lines. Thanks for the kind words and support!!😎☀️🍻
Thanks so much for the great video. As fellow Canadians I appreciated your review. We usually go on the RC oasis ships we may try the celebration next March, so thanks again :)
Thank you!! I was just saying to Kala we need to get back on an Oasis ship so I can really compare. Glad you enjoyed the videos so far and thanks for watching!! 🍻😎☀️🇨🇦
My first cruise was on carnival and I really enjoyed it yes the blue card is not fun I wanna go on the boat your on but we’re going to Bermuda in September on royal so I’m really excited about that
@@kala-ryanandkala they are so cute from far away they look like they have palm trees on them. Love the color. Thanks for getting back so quickly. Your awesome love all your cruise videos. Hope to cruise with you both someday.
We'll be bringing the Ovation of the Seas over for you. We board Ovation in Honolulu on May 2nd and arrive in Vancouver May 11th. Thanks for another great video.
I literally saw this today and told Kala we should do an extended one and go over and hop on in Hawaii 🤣 surprisingly we did not win the lottery so we will have to wait on our Hawaii bucket list for now. You’ll have to let us know how awesome that itinerary is! Thanks for watching and for the support!! 😎🍻☀️
San Juan is an amazing place to fly a kite it’s crazy! That wind is just next level haha! Got to be careful you don’t blow away or take flight with the kites haha
Just stumbled upon your channel. Love it. As a platinum member of Carnival, I am thrilled you enjoyed Celebration. My husband and I will be on Breeze in November and Jubilee in April. Jubilee is Celebration's sister ship and the largest in the fleet. :)
Yay!! Welcome to the channel, the Celebration is still our favorite ship to this date we had so much fun. Sounds like you have some exciting cruises on the books! We're on the Jubilee in February and we're very excited. Thanks for watching! 😎☀️🍻
We are so glad we tried out Carnival we loved the Celebration and can't wait for the Jubilee. Also, the price point for the Celebration is incredible considering it's their newest ship 😎☀️🍻
The food there IS fantastic. It wasn't nearly as busy a day when I was there last and we were able to have lunch. My first time eating mofongo and it was so good! I tend to bring home food as a souvenir (not literally lol) and had to try to learn to make it at home. I've made some decent mofongo but nothing like that. I really like San Juan, though I know a lot of people feel like it's boring. It's something out of the norm from all the other Caribbean ports. I totally get you on branching out to other lines and missing your perks. I am really curious about others, Virgin in particular, but man. I'm platinum on Carnival and would lose those benefits, along with the fact my Carnival cruises are extremely cheap due to casino deals. Our upcoming B2B on Celebration is in a suite and I only paid taxes, grats and port fees. Makes it VERY hard to branch out. Honestly need to even be doing trips other than cruises entirely.
Honestly, we know exactly how you feel… We are diamond on Royal and those perks make it really hard to ever want to branch out. Oh wow you got to try Mofongo… When we were there with our families, my mom got us to try it and it was so delicious! I love that you try to bring home a new recipe from every place you go that’s such a great idea I might steal it ❤
We live in Edmonton and love carnival cruises and are looking to go on the celebration in Feb! We have been on the splendor, glory, valor and liberty. Our last cruise was Jan 2016 and are so grateful we found your vlogs. We love your tips and opinions! We may even try a royal one day. Maybe. Lol
You're going to have so much fun!! We are definitely looking forward to trying out more Carnival. We love Royal but it was so fun and refreshing to try something new. This ship is my favourite ship so far though and we are looking forward to the Jubilee next Feb! Welcome to the channel, glad you're enjoying the videos ! 🍻😎☀️🇨🇦
The DJ was insanely good, he created such a fun pool vibe! You're going to have the BEST time. We loved the Celebration and can't wait for the Jubilee. Thanks for sharing! ☀️🍻😎
Great vlog, we are sailing Celebration April 30th. Our 21st Carnival cruise. The tax on the drinks is because you were in San Juan and it's a US territory.
Wow 21st Carnival cruise!! That’s amazing!! Is there any destinations that you still haven’t done that you’re looking to do? Yeah we didn’t know this was a thing on Carnival, with Royal you don’t pay this tax I wonder if Royal has an agreement or they simply absorb the cost/price it into the drinks. Thanks for watching!! 😎🍻☀️
Hi Guys…Fun video! We are Diamond Plus with Royal Caribbean and we get five free alcoholic drinks everyday, so it’s hard to cruise any other cruise line and pay for drinks. Plus we really love Royal ships the Best anyway.⚓️
Omg I hear you, the 4-5 drinks is the best loyalty perk cruise ships offer in our opinion. We talk about this often and take it into consideration every time we are pricing out a cruise. Royal will always be #1 in our hearts ❤️ but it was fun to experience something new and we look forward to trying them all 😎🍻☀️ thanks for watching!!
Great video once again! We will be on the Jubilee on February 10th, can't wait to check out these Excel class ships! Glad that you got to try out Guy's Burger, definitely a great burger at sea! BTW, did you get to try out Blue Iguana Cantina, for either lunch or breakfast? Some really good breakfast burritos! Looking forward to your other videos!
We are on the Jubilee on the Feb 24th!! We just missed you. We did have the Blue Iguana for lunch on the first sea day but we never tried the breakfast burritos! I’ve heard we definitely missed out on those so I’ll have to wait until next time! I can’t wait!! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
We are on Harmony of the Seas in September and then a transatlantic on Odyssey in April of 2024. We’re Diamond on Royal so sticking with them for the perks. Plus we’ve sailed Carnival twice and it was less than great. Would sail NCL or MSC again before Carnival.
That’s awesome!! Those are some great ships it sounds like you have some exciting trips planned! Yeah being Diamond is soooo good it’s hard to cruise anywhere else. We definitely factor in the savings when pricing out a cruise. Can’t wait to try NCL or Celebrity I think those are the next two we try out! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
Thank you so much!! For some reason RUclips doesn't let us post a link but she got it from Shein! If you message us on Instagram @ryankalatravels Kala will send you a direct link! Welcome to the channel 😎🍻☀️
Great way to spend your day. Carnival is definitely a Fun ship! We were diverted to San Diego for 2 1/5 days due to weather once. We paid taxes on every drink.
Omg that's brutal! I hate that with Carnival but I couldn't agree more about it being a fun ship! We had such a blast on this cruise, we can't wait for the Jubilee!
Thank you!! I work for the Government and Kala is an Office Manager for an IT company, we basically spend all our disposable income on cruising lol. Glad you’re enjoying the videos 😎🍻☀️
Stumbled across your channel and love your videos! I have to say me and my husband are loyal to Carnival, but we live in Houston and are only about an hour away from the Galveston port! Cant wait to see your vlog for Jubilee, we are booked on that one for next October so well be watching for tips a preview for our trip!
Yay!! Welcome to the channel and thank you so much. We're glad you're enjoying the videos 😊 Carnival Celebration is still our favourite ship so we are very excited for the Jubilee. It'll be our first time cruising out of Galveston as well! Thanks for watching and for following along ☀️😎🍻
Thank you so much!! Welcome to the channel 😎☀️🍻 We know exactly how you feel being Diamond with Royal. It was fun experiencing something new but we definitely factor it in when deciding on our next cruise!
Omg that's awesome a little bit of everything! We've checked out the Venezia could be something we do in the fall as it leaves close(ish) to home. 🍻☀️😎
@Ryan and Kala we like sailing from the east coast. We live in PEI so easiest for us to get to. Can drive that way if the airlines are being ridiculous! You guys booked on the Icon?
@@terryrichardson5493 Not yet, it's definitely one we would love to do in 2024. Maybe once we get passed all these excursion payments for Alaska we can look at putting a deposit
I like your videos. You’re way more laid back than a lot of other cruise vloggers. So you’ve got a new subscriber. PR is one of my favorite ports. The food and drinks are so good. In that area with the food trucks is a trick called Tico Tipleta. Next time you go back you have to get a tripleta sandwich. As far as not speaking Spanish I have a secret weapon. My wife is Puerto Rican so I always have a translator with me.
Thank you so much!! ❤️ Welcome to the channel. PR is awesome! We will definitely have to try that sandwich, it must be great having someone there who speaks the language! 😎🍻☀️
My fiance and I are going on this exact ship and itinerary next month, so I've been super eager to watch your vlogs. When you were in Cucina del Capitano I thought I was going crazy - my dad and his fiance were sitting right behind you guys!!! so cool!
Wow that's so crazy! How did they like it? We had so much fun. You and your fiance are going to have a blast!! Thanks for watching and following along, have a wonderful vacation!! 😎☀️🍻
Another great video. Love the kite 🪁 flying adventure. I’m definitely a knock of Oakley guy myself. On a funny side note which one is it Are you a Blue Jay fan or a Yankees?? Have a great day can’t wait to see St Martin.
The kite flying was surprisingly fun, even though it was a simple day we created such a nice memory and loved rewatching the video. I always make sure I have a couple extra pairs of those Oakleys because I always lose or break the expensive ones. I actually think I’m wearing sunglasses I picked up at a gas station because I had lost the original ones I brought🤣🤣 I’m definitely a Blue Jays fan, but I also have 2nd and 3rd favourites 😎🍻☀️
I've only been on one cruise, November 2022 on the Carnival Conquest for 4 days. I loved it. I didn't find it too much of a party ship. This coming November I am going on the Carnival Magic for a 6 night cruise. Nothing for 2024 but we have a Disney cruise planned for 2025. I'm beyond stoked for that! Let's see if I can manage one for 2024. I picked Carnival as it is cheaper for a solo cabin cruiser from NB Canada as we need to fly in for it. I would like to try some other cruise lines in the future. No one I know likes to cruise or wants to cruise, so my dad and I go together. We each have our own stateroom. Soooo pricey. Cruising is awesome. Enjoy all of yours! ❤
That’s so nice that you and your Dad go together, it’s always nice to have something planned and a cruise to look forward to it sounds like you have some exciting times ahead! Glad you’re enjoying all the videos, thanks for watching!! 😎🍻☀️❤️
Thanks Ryan and Kala for this vlog. It 100% sold me on the Celebration. My concern was that with this many people on the ship it would feel crowded but from your videos it doesn't look that way. Did you feel crowded?
Generally no we didn’t find it crowded but we sort of worked around it. Here are some of the negatives that we noticed that is pretty common for a large ship: 1) Lido deck was always busy and to get a drink at the Red Frog was at least 15 minutes 2) I had to get up early on Sea days in order to get chairs (pretty common but worth mentioning) 3) Coffee, pizza, deli and those sort of venues generally had 15-30 minute line BUT we worked around this such as port days, late night, and for coffee going to Havana and Bar820. 4) Getting chairs for the shows in the grand central and comedy club was pretty difficult, you had to go early or just be happy with a bad angle/standing. At night in the bars we didn’t find the bar service slow in fact we got drinks pretty quick, just found that the pool bartenders were slammed. Hope this helps!!! Thanks for watching! 😎🍻☀️
Love your videos. We are actually taking our first Carnival cruise in November on Celebration. Thank you for doing these very detailed videos. I feel like I'm there with y'all. LOL But we normally cruise on Celebrity and we LOVE them. So we're excited to see what Carnival has to offer.
Thank you so much for the kind words and for following along. I'm so excited for you to experience the ship and all the new venues just like we did! We definitely have to try Celebrity, it's on the wish-list. 😎🍻☀️ We hope you have a wonderful cruise!!
I don’t drink so I haven’t been billed for tax but I remember hearing that you do have to still pay it while in the US. So while still docked in Miami and then in Puerto Rico would make sense, although suck.
Yeah that’s too bad about the tax, it’s not a big deal at the end of the day but if someone is number crunching on whether the drink package is worth it for them this can add $10-15 per person per day while docked in the US 🇺🇸. Thanks for the info and for watching!! Happy cruising 😎🍻☀️
Hello again Ryan and Kala, Great vid. My wife and I went on the Carnival Magic for our wedding anniversary a few years ago. We were in San Juan right after the big hurricane. San Juan's trees look much better. We found Carnival a crowded experience during Xmas holidays compared to our recent Xmas cruise on the Princess Caribbean. Much better service and much less crowded as well. Any plans on trying Princess or Holland?
Thank you!! We have definitely been looking at trying out Princess, NCL, Celebrity, and Holland America (not in any order) I don’t know when but at some point I’d like to do a Pacific coast one from Vancouver to LA and another to Hawaii. We have the two new Carnival ships booked next year and nothing after the Ovations OTS to Alaska this year, we are just waiting on some work commitments to get ironed out but I’d like to get one in between Sept-Nov this year as well. Thanks for sharing your experience and for watching!! 😎☀️🍻
The reason they charge the sales tax on drinks at port on Carnival and not on Royal or NCL is because since Carnival has the 15 a day drink limit, they have to "process" your transaction immediately to keep count. On other cruise lines such as royal with unlimited drinks a day, they wait until you're at sea to finish processing your transaction.
Loving your videos just a fyi the jubilee is the same size as the celebration :) I’m a loyal carnival cruiser I’m going on my 10th in a week and doing the celebration in October I can’t wait! Welcome to carnival lol
Thank you!! Yeah after we got back I looked into it and booked the Jubilee. We are very excited!! Hope you have a wonderful cruise and enjoy the Celebration as well! 😎🍻☀️
Love the vlog guys! I’m actually literally sitting here trying to decide between Carnival Celebration, Mardi Gras or Royal Symphony for a New Year’s cruise. Never been on Carnival. We love Oasis class on a Royal but Celebration, Mardi Gras is like $2000 less (for 3)! Symphony is 8 nights v 7 nights but still. There is also Carnival Vista also $2000 less than Symphony for 8 nights as well. We are VERY tempted, so your vlogs are helping! We are also going to Alaska at the end of May, can’t wait those vlogs.
Thank you!! Omg that’s a tough decision those are some great ships, we loved the both the Symphony and the Celebration. I think whatever you go with will be a fantastic cruise there’s no wrong choice, I know that doesn’t help lol maybe it comes down to the destinations. I’m glad the vlogs are helping, I can’t wait for Alaska and to hear what you think! 😎🍻☀️
@@ryanandkala Haha yes you’re not helping. Lol. Joking. Vista has the best itinerary but it’s also oldest of the bunch. Celebration is newest and I think Mardi Gras is its sister ship. Celebration has the least interesting itinerary being the newest. Celebration looks great though and based on your vlogs you seemed to really enjoy it! I think we still prefer Royal Oasis class, we love how those ships feel uncrowded because of the neighborhoods. Symphony is almost $2000 usd more for us though for new year’s! Ugh. Lol
@@kikky811 I cruised Symphony and Celebration and they both felt about the same in terms of crowding - which was only at peak times in certain areas. I think they both had lots of great dining, activities, entertainment. I’ve sailed Horizon (sister ship to Vista) and it’s a great class if ship as well. But the edge goes to Excel class ships If I was in your shoes, I’d save the $2K and book the Celebration or Mardi Gras. $2K is a whole other vacation….
@@fofita17 We are now booked on the Mardi Gras for New years! (Dec 30 sailing). Yes it was $2000 less than Symphony & has 2 new ports to us: Turks & Caicos and Amber Cove. So we’re going for it. I doubt we’ll hate it. Lol Thanks for the reply!
I found yall because I'm about to go on the celebration and trying to see all the things I want to do. Great videos, love the kite flying. Not sure if yall ever go to the casino, carnival has good casino offers.
I am in the process of booking our family on the celebration on Dec 8 2024, working on 15 cabins. Love for Ryan and Kala to Join us. Meet in Jacksonville and we charter a bus to Miami the day before. Mike J
That’s so exciting! You know we love the Carnival Celebration so this is quite tempting 🤣 But we have 2 Carnival cruises already for 2024 and we would love to throw in a Europe cruise or Hawaii cruise. However I did just buy 2 lotto tickets so ya never know 😉
That’s a tough question there’s so much to unpack here and we hope to do a video of this in the near future. I would say it depends on a few things both cruise lines are great. Just some general advice I would research the ship you’re thinking of booking and try to decide if you care more about the ship or the destinations. I would definitely recommend an Oasis or Freedom Class and above ship on Royal and since we only have experience on the Excel class with Carnival that’s what I would suggest. Again it’s going to depend on where you want to go and what sort of cruise you’re looking for but I hope that helps!! 😎🍻☀️
We're Diamond on both Carnival and Royal, we think the difference is,,, Carnival is participation, Royal is sit back and watch! What we mean is Carnival has more and better participation activities, like deck parties, etc. where Royal has better sit back and watch like Broadway shows, the ice shows and the diving shows!
Just found you guys. Love the videos. We are Carnival people, but we have only done 1 Royal and it was a smaller ship. We’re only gold on carnival because we alternate Disney and cruising. We have the Jubilee booked for feb 3! Ports we’ve done so we are going to enjoy the Havana cabana!
Yay!! Welcome to the channel we’re glad you’re enjoying the videos ☀️🍻 That’s so exciting, we’re so excited for the Jubilee we are on the Feb 24th sailing and have also done these ports before but it’s been a while and we’re excited to get back! Thanks for watching!! 😎🍻☀️
My first cruise will be Royal Caribbean Voyager of the Seas this coming September out of Galveston. I'm also considering the Jubilee from Galveston next year, or the Harmony from Galveston. I absolutely love the look of the new Carnival Celebration, and Mardi Gras, and the Jubilee is supposed to be pretty much an exact replica. Your probably not going to really notice, but the Jubilee is showing to be the largest in Carnival's fleet in terms of gross tons, when she arrives. I would love to try the ICON in 2024, but wowser she is premium priced, of course I travel alone, so I have to pay double.
Awesome that’s going to be a great first cruise! We’d love to try the Icon but you’re exactly right, it is super expensive right now. We also want to try the new Celebrity Ascent to try out another cruise line. We loved this ship so if it’s exactly the same that’s ok we’ll still have a great time. It’d be nice if there was some minor layout changes so it feels new though. Thanks for watching!! 😎🍻☀️
@@ryanandkala I got charged In San Juan while in port. Bought the Mrs. one of the drinks in a pineapple and they charged me tax.. Didn't have the drink package. Maybe that makes a difference?

Sounds like it's time to pass on the 💎 status to the kids lol
I enjoy your vlogs. It’s nice seeing your perspective of a Carnival ship being new to the line. I’m taking my three daughters on the celebration in 3 weeks. Can’t wait. I like the tip about the outdoor seating for the Italian restaurant.
Thank you!! We’re glad you’re enjoying the videos 😊 You and your daughters are going to have an awesome vacation we had so much fun on this cruise!! If you can, definitely get outside if the weather is right! Thanks for watching and have a wonderful time!! 😎🍻☀️
Great video Ryan & Kala. Love Old San Juan
Thank you!! We had a lovely day, even though it was pretty simple we loved rewatching the video together and made a nice cruising memory! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
You all made kite flying look so cool... I can't wait to do this with my husband!! 😀😀

Thank you so much!! What a great vacation that’ll be!! Great time of year, great ship and great destination. 😎🍻☀️ We’re glad you enjoyed the video
Me too I go June 25th you?
we have not cruised royal because we are trying to get to platinum on carnival we have 3 more 7 day cruises to go to get to platinum then we will try royal
You're so close! It's funny we hit diamond on Royal then we booked 3 Carnival cruises which makes no sense 🤣 I guess we just wanted to mix it up!
We can't wait to go to San Juan. Have never flown a kite at a port. Looks like a lot of fun. Really fun video. Thanks for sharing.
It was a lot of fun! We had such a nice low-key day in San Juan. Thank you so much!!! ☀️🍻😎
We were at the “Home of the pina colada” in 2019 and there was no line, we were in San Juan getting on a cruise, it wasn’t a stop for us. I still have a pic of my drink and it was much larger and very “yellow” in colour lol. It was delicious. It’s possible they changed it or it was just to busy when you guys were there.
Ya I can imagine when there’s not a couple big ships in port the line would be much better! Yeah I wonder if they do things different when there’s a cruise in town or not, I didn’t think of that! 😎🍻☀️
@@ryanandkala Who knows, they might have changed- like many things post Covid! Smaller drinks for more money :)
San Juan is such a cool city though, I also loved embarking on a cruise there!
Ya true, we did some night life activities when we embarked there and had an amazing time, we’d go back anytime 😎☀️🍻
Diamonds in the rough ❤
Hahaha! 🤣💎
Thanks for watching 🍻
Going on my first cruise in 3 weeks. This video has been very insightful! I really can’t wait now. Thanks 😊
Wow your first cruise!! Welcome to the cruising family! I'm glad you found the videos helpful, have a wonderful vacation!
😎☀🍻
You guys are my favorite cruise channel, love the content. I am obssesed with NCL, you guys should check out the norwegian prima or the joy!
Thank you so much!! NCL is definitely on our list we’ve heard such good things. Eventually we’ll try all the cruise lines. Thanks for the kind words and support!!😎☀️🍻
Thanks so much for the great video. As fellow Canadians I appreciated your review. We usually go on the RC oasis ships we may try the celebration next March, so thanks again :)
Thank you!! I was just saying to Kala we need to get back on an Oasis ship so I can really compare. Glad you enjoyed the videos so far and thanks for watching!! 🍻😎☀️🇨🇦
My first cruise was on carnival and I really enjoyed it yes the blue card is not fun I wanna go on the boat your on but we’re going to Bermuda in September on royal so I’m really excited about that
Bermuda is beautiful! We went there on the Enchantment back in May 2022 and really enjoyed our day there. Thanks for watching!! 😎☀️🍻
Looks like a very fun day in PR. I really liked the kite idea. Good episode!
Thank you!! It was just a nice simple day in PR and we created a nice memory, great weather too! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
Celebrity will match your Royal status and you really should try the Beyond or Apex. I think you would LOVE it!
For sure! We've already matched our status but we haven't booked anything just yet, it's definitely on our list! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
Love the sunglasses Kala where ever did you find them so cute.
I think these are the ones she said were from Gucci but I don’t recall where she got them, she has a million sunglasses 🤣 I’ll find out!
Gift from my sister a few xmas’ ago. I think they’re faux Gucci haha
@@kala-ryanandkala they are so cute from far away they look like they have palm trees on them. Love the color. Thanks for getting back so quickly. Your awesome love all your cruise videos. Hope to cruise with you both someday.
We'll be bringing the Ovation of the Seas over for you. We board Ovation in Honolulu on May 2nd and arrive in Vancouver May 11th. Thanks for another great video.
I literally saw this today and told Kala we should do an extended one and go over and hop on in Hawaii 🤣 surprisingly we did not win the lottery so we will have to wait on our Hawaii bucket list for now. You’ll have to let us know how awesome that itinerary is! Thanks for watching and for the support!! 😎🍻☀️
That was a no fail kite day with all that available wind !❤️
San Juan is an amazing place to fly a kite it’s crazy! That wind is just next level haha! Got to be careful you don’t blow away or take flight with the kites haha
Just stumbled upon your channel. Love it. As a platinum member of Carnival, I am thrilled you enjoyed Celebration. My husband and I will be on Breeze in November and Jubilee in April. Jubilee is Celebration's sister ship and the largest in the fleet. :)
Yay!! Welcome to the channel, the Celebration is still our favorite ship to this date we had so much fun. Sounds like you have some exciting cruises on the books! We're on the Jubilee in February and we're very excited. Thanks for watching! 😎☀️🍻
We cruise both Royal and Carnival…….love both but lean towards Carnival when it comes time for booking. Gonna book Celebration for Feb…..looks so nice
We are so glad we tried out Carnival we loved the Celebration and can't wait for the Jubilee. Also, the price point for the Celebration is incredible considering it's their newest ship 😎☀️🍻
I like your style of vlogging. Keep up the good work and the good information and your channel will grow.
Thank you so much!! That's so kind, we hope so! 😊
The food there IS fantastic. It wasn't nearly as busy a day when I was there last and we were able to have lunch. My first time eating mofongo and it was so good! I tend to bring home food as a souvenir (not literally lol) and had to try to learn to make it at home. I've made some decent mofongo but nothing like that. I really like San Juan, though I know a lot of people feel like it's boring. It's something out of the norm from all the other Caribbean ports. I totally get you on branching out to other lines and missing your perks. I am really curious about others, Virgin in particular, but man. I'm platinum on Carnival and would lose those benefits, along with the fact my Carnival cruises are extremely cheap due to casino deals. Our upcoming B2B on Celebration is in a suite and I only paid taxes, grats and port fees. Makes it VERY hard to branch out. Honestly need to even be doing trips other than cruises entirely.
Honestly, we know exactly how you feel… We are diamond on Royal and those perks make it really hard to ever want to branch out.
Oh wow you got to try Mofongo… When we were there with our families, my mom got us to try it and it was so delicious!
I love that you try to bring home a new recipe from every place you go that’s such a great idea I might steal it ❤
We live in Edmonton and love carnival cruises and are looking to go on the celebration in Feb! We have been on the splendor, glory, valor and liberty. Our last cruise was Jan 2016 and are so grateful we found your vlogs. We love your tips and opinions! We may even try a royal one day. Maybe. Lol
You're going to have so much fun!! We are definitely looking forward to trying out more Carnival. We love Royal but it was so fun and refreshing to try something new. This ship is my favourite ship so far though and we are looking forward to the Jubilee next Feb! Welcome to the channel, glad you're enjoying the videos ! 🍻😎☀️🇨🇦
Next cruise will be December of 2023 on this exact ship & same itinerary. I heard that DJ is one of thee best DJ’S carnival has.
The DJ was insanely good, he created such a fun pool vibe! You're going to have the BEST time. We loved the Celebration and can't wait for the Jubilee. Thanks for sharing! ☀️🍻😎
Great vlog, we are sailing Celebration April 30th. Our 21st Carnival cruise. The tax on the drinks is because you were in San Juan and it's a US territory.
Wow 21st Carnival cruise!! That’s amazing!! Is there any destinations that you still haven’t done that you’re looking to do? Yeah we didn’t know this was a thing on Carnival, with Royal you don’t pay this tax I wonder if Royal has an agreement or they simply absorb the cost/price it into the drinks. Thanks for watching!! 😎🍻☀️
There is always some place new to go. Lol. We are sailing to Alaska in June on Carnival Spirit. . Our first Alaskan cruise.
Hi Guys…Fun video! We are Diamond Plus with Royal Caribbean and we get five free alcoholic drinks everyday, so it’s hard to cruise any other cruise line and pay for drinks. Plus we really love Royal ships the Best anyway.⚓️
Omg I hear you, the 4-5 drinks is the best loyalty perk cruise ships offer in our opinion. We talk about this often and take it into consideration every time we are pricing out a cruise. Royal will always be #1 in our hearts ❤️ but it was fun to experience something new and we look forward to trying them all 😎🍻☀️ thanks for watching!!
Great video once again! We will be on the Jubilee on February 10th, can't wait to check out these Excel class ships! Glad that you got to try out Guy's Burger, definitely a great burger at sea! BTW, did you get to try out Blue Iguana Cantina, for either lunch or breakfast? Some really good breakfast burritos! Looking forward to your other videos!
We are on the Jubilee on the Feb 24th!! We just missed you. We did have the Blue Iguana for lunch on the first sea day but we never tried the breakfast burritos! I’ve heard we definitely missed out on those so I’ll have to wait until next time! I can’t wait!! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
We are on Harmony of the Seas in September and then a transatlantic on Odyssey in April of 2024. We’re Diamond on Royal so sticking with them for the perks. Plus we’ve sailed Carnival twice and it was less than great. Would sail NCL or MSC again before Carnival.
That’s awesome!! Those are some great ships it sounds like you have some exciting trips planned! Yeah being Diamond is soooo good it’s hard to cruise anywhere else. We definitely factor in the savings when pricing out a cruise. Can’t wait to try NCL or Celebrity I think those are the next two we try out! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
3:11 love your content. I am now a fan. Love your outfit. Can you post a link?
Thank you so much!! For some reason RUclips doesn't let us post a link but she got it from Shein! If you message us on Instagram @ryankalatravels Kala will send you a direct link! Welcome to the channel 😎🍻☀️
Great way to spend your day. Carnival is definitely a Fun ship! We were diverted to San Diego for 2 1/5 days due to weather once. We paid taxes on every drink.
Omg that's brutal! I hate that with Carnival but I couldn't agree more about it being a fun ship! We had such a blast on this cruise, we can't wait for the Jubilee!
Fun video guys. Im a carnival fan. Love watching your videos. Kayla is so cute.
What do both of you do for a living? You guys cruise a lot!
Thank you!! I work for the Government and Kala is an Office Manager for an IT company, we basically spend all our disposable income on cruising lol. Glad you’re enjoying the videos 😎🍻☀️
Stumbled across your channel and love your videos! I have to say me and my husband are loyal to Carnival, but we live in Houston and are only about an hour away from the Galveston port! Cant wait to see your vlog for Jubilee, we are booked on that one for next October so well be watching for tips a preview for our trip!
Yay!! Welcome to the channel and thank you so much. We're glad you're enjoying the videos 😊 Carnival Celebration is still our favourite ship so we are very excited for the Jubilee. It'll be our first time cruising out of Galveston as well! Thanks for watching and for following along ☀️😎🍻
Just found your channel and love these vlogs! I'm Platinum with Carnival and find it hard to try a Royal cruise cause of my perks on Carnival haha
Thank you so much!! Welcome to the channel 😎☀️🍻 We know exactly how you feel being Diamond with Royal. It was fun experiencing something new but we definitely factor it in when deciding on our next cruise!
Our next cruise is next week to Bermuda on the NCL Pearl. Navigator of the Seas in October and Carnival Venezia in Jan.. we like to dabble
Omg that's awesome a little bit of everything! We've checked out the Venezia could be something we do in the fall as it leaves close(ish) to home. 🍻☀️😎
@Ryan and Kala we like sailing from the east coast. We live in PEI so easiest for us to get to. Can drive that way if the airlines are being ridiculous!
You guys booked on the Icon?
@@terryrichardson5493 Not yet, it's definitely one we would love to do in 2024. Maybe once we get passed all these excursion payments for Alaska we can look at putting a deposit
@@ryanandkala you have to be rich to excurt in Alaska! :)
@@terryrichardson5493 No kidding! No wonder the cruise prices are fairly cheap, they get you on the excursions 😅
I like your videos. You’re way more laid back than a lot of other cruise vloggers. So you’ve got a new subscriber. PR is one of my favorite ports. The food and drinks are so good. In that area with the food trucks is a trick called Tico Tipleta. Next time you go back you have to get a tripleta sandwich. As far as not speaking Spanish I have a secret weapon. My wife is Puerto Rican so I always have a translator with me.
Thank you so much!! ❤️ Welcome to the channel. PR is awesome! We will definitely have to try that sandwich, it must be great having someone there who speaks the language! 😎🍻☀️
My fiance and I are going on this exact ship and itinerary next month, so I've been super eager to watch your vlogs. When you were in Cucina del Capitano I thought I was going crazy - my dad and his fiance were sitting right behind you guys!!! so cool!
Wow that's so crazy! How did they like it? We had so much fun. You and your fiance are going to have a blast!! Thanks for watching and following along, have a wonderful vacation!! 😎☀️🍻
I’m so so scared we’re doing that waterfall excursion next week and I don’t want to jump!
There are steps and slides you can do instead! No pressure to jump, although once I got brave enough I did it and it was exhilarating!
You guys are awesome, enjoyed the video. 😊
Thank you so much!! We're glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching!! ☀️🍻☺️
Another great video. Love the kite 🪁 flying adventure. I’m definitely a knock of Oakley guy myself. On a funny side note which one is it Are you a Blue Jay fan or a Yankees?? Have a great day can’t wait to see St Martin.
The kite flying was surprisingly fun, even though it was a simple day we created such a nice memory and loved rewatching the video. I always make sure I have a couple extra pairs of those Oakleys because I always lose or break the expensive ones. I actually think I’m wearing sunglasses I picked up at a gas station because I had lost the original ones I brought🤣🤣 I’m definitely a Blue Jays fan, but I also have 2nd and 3rd favourites 😎🍻☀️
I've only been on one cruise, November 2022 on the Carnival Conquest for 4 days. I loved it. I didn't find it too much of a party ship. This coming November I am going on the Carnival Magic for a 6 night cruise. Nothing for 2024 but we have a Disney cruise planned for 2025. I'm beyond stoked for that! Let's see if I can manage one for 2024. I picked Carnival as it is cheaper for a solo cabin cruiser from NB Canada as we need to fly in for it. I would like to try some other cruise lines in the future. No one I know likes to cruise or wants to cruise, so my dad and I go together. We each have our own stateroom. Soooo pricey. Cruising is awesome. Enjoy all of yours! ❤
That’s so nice that you and your Dad go together, it’s always nice to have something planned and a cruise to look forward to it sounds like you have some exciting times ahead! Glad you’re enjoying all the videos, thanks for watching!! 😎🍻☀️❤️
Thanks Ryan and Kala for this vlog. It 100% sold me on the Celebration. My concern was that with this many people on the ship it would feel crowded but from your videos it doesn't look that way. Did you feel crowded?
Generally no we didn’t find it crowded but we sort of worked around it. Here are some of the negatives that we noticed that is pretty common for a large ship:
1) Lido deck was always busy and to get a drink at the Red Frog was at least 15 minutes
2) I had to get up early on Sea days in order to get chairs (pretty common but worth mentioning)
3) Coffee, pizza, deli and those sort of venues generally had 15-30 minute line BUT we worked around this such as port days, late night, and for coffee going to Havana and Bar820.
4) Getting chairs for the shows in the grand central and comedy club was pretty difficult, you had to go early or just be happy with a bad angle/standing.
At night in the bars we didn’t find the bar service slow in fact we got drinks pretty quick, just found that the pool bartenders were slammed.
Hope this helps!!! Thanks for watching! 😎🍻☀️
@@ryanandkala Thank you so much for answering my concerns. Looks like the Celebration is next up for us.
Love your videos. We are actually taking our first Carnival cruise in November on Celebration. Thank you for doing these very detailed videos. I feel like I'm there with y'all. LOL But we normally cruise on Celebrity and we LOVE them. So we're excited to see what Carnival has to offer.
Thank you so much for the kind words and for following along. I'm so excited for you to experience the ship and all the new venues just like we did! We definitely have to try Celebrity, it's on the wish-list. 😎🍻☀️ We hope you have a wonderful cruise!!
I don’t drink so I haven’t been billed for tax but I remember hearing that you do have to still pay it while in the US. So while still docked in Miami and then in Puerto Rico would make sense, although suck.
Yeah that’s too bad about the tax, it’s not a big deal at the end of the day but if someone is number crunching on whether the drink package is worth it for them this can add $10-15 per person per day while docked in the US 🇺🇸. Thanks for the info and for watching!! Happy cruising 😎🍻☀️
Hello again Ryan and Kala, Great vid. My wife and I went on the Carnival Magic for our wedding anniversary a few years ago. We were in San Juan right after the big hurricane. San Juan's trees look much better. We found Carnival a crowded experience during Xmas holidays compared to our recent Xmas cruise on the Princess Caribbean. Much better service and much less crowded as well. Any plans on trying Princess or Holland?
Thank you!! We have definitely been looking at trying out Princess, NCL, Celebrity, and Holland America (not in any order) I don’t know when but at some point I’d like to do a Pacific coast one from Vancouver to LA and another to Hawaii. We have the two new Carnival ships booked next year and nothing after the Ovations OTS to Alaska this year, we are just waiting on some work commitments to get ironed out but I’d like to get one in between Sept-Nov this year as well. Thanks for sharing your experience and for watching!! 😎☀️🍻
The reason they charge the sales tax on drinks at port on Carnival and not on Royal or NCL is because since Carnival has the 15 a day drink limit, they have to "process" your transaction immediately to keep count. On other cruise lines such as royal with unlimited drinks a day, they wait until you're at sea to finish processing your transaction.
Wow that's great information, I wish Carnival would just do this on Day 1. Thank you for sharing!! 😎☀️🍻
Awesome vlog, looks like you had a great trip. I recently went on Carnival splendor and had an awesome time - I also vlogged it 🤗
Wow that's awesome!! I'll have to check it out. We had a great time and we're excited for our Alaska trip coming up! Thanks for watching 🍻☀️😎
Loving your videos just a fyi the jubilee is the same size as the celebration :) I’m a loyal carnival cruiser I’m going on my 10th in a week and doing the celebration in October I can’t wait! Welcome to carnival lol
Thank you!! Yeah after we got back I looked into it and booked the Jubilee. We are very excited!! Hope you have a wonderful cruise and enjoy the Celebration as well! 😎🍻☀️
@@ryanandkala When do you cruise on the Jubilee?
We are on the Jubilee Feb 2024 and the Firenze Aug 2024!
We’re you on the celebration from April 2nd to the 9th
This was the February 5th - 12th sailing! Did you just get off the Celebration? What did you think? 😎🍻☀️
@@ryanandkala yes just got off the celebration. I thought the cruise was awesome and the cruise director was good and the service.
That’s great to hear!! Glad you have an awesome cruise, now time to start planning the next one 😂
This was my 10th cruise… I’m always ready for a cruise! I could take another one anytime
@@gamingboy2285 Us too!!
Love the video,where are Kala’s shades from?
Thank you so much!! Kala's sunglasses in this video are Gucci I believe, she got them as a gift from her sister 😎🍻☀️
Love the vlog guys! I’m actually literally sitting here trying to decide between Carnival Celebration, Mardi Gras or Royal Symphony for a New Year’s cruise. Never been on Carnival. We love Oasis class on a Royal but Celebration, Mardi Gras is like $2000 less (for 3)! Symphony is 8 nights v 7 nights but still. There is also Carnival Vista also $2000 less than Symphony for 8 nights as well. We are VERY tempted, so your vlogs are helping! We are also going to Alaska at the end of May, can’t wait those vlogs.
Thank you!! Omg that’s a tough decision those are some great ships, we loved the both the Symphony and the Celebration. I think whatever you go with will be a fantastic cruise there’s no wrong choice, I know that doesn’t help lol maybe it comes down to the destinations. I’m glad the vlogs are helping, I can’t wait for Alaska and to hear what you think! 😎🍻☀️
@@ryanandkala Haha yes you’re not helping. Lol. Joking. Vista has the best itinerary but it’s also oldest of the bunch. Celebration is newest and I think Mardi Gras is its sister ship. Celebration has the least interesting itinerary being the newest. Celebration looks great though and based on your vlogs you seemed to really enjoy it! I think we still prefer Royal Oasis class, we love how those ships feel uncrowded because of the neighborhoods. Symphony is almost $2000 usd more for us though for new year’s! Ugh. Lol
If you book the Vista on Carnival and you don't have any kids under 12 I'd look at the Havana area cabins. That area is awesome.
@@kikky811 I cruised Symphony and Celebration and they both felt about the same in terms of crowding - which was only at peak times in certain areas. I think they both had lots of great dining, activities, entertainment. I’ve sailed Horizon (sister ship to Vista) and it’s a great class if ship as well. But the edge goes to Excel class ships
If I was in your shoes, I’d save the $2K and book the Celebration or Mardi Gras. $2K is a whole other vacation….
@@fofita17 We are now booked on the Mardi Gras for New years! (Dec 30 sailing). Yes it was $2000 less than Symphony & has 2 new ports to us: Turks & Caicos and Amber Cove. So we’re going for it. I doubt we’ll hate it. Lol
Thanks for the reply!
They burgers are fire
Yes!! 💯🔥
Ok can’t get over this.. what’s the answer for arumps😂 also I love the videos I jo on the 25th this month
Haha ARUMPS was "Up in Arms"!! How exciting you're going to have an awesome vacation!!! Thanks for watching 😎🍻☀️
I found yall because I'm about to go on the celebration and trying to see all the things I want to do. Great videos, love the kite flying. Not sure if yall ever go to the casino, carnival has good casino offers.
So glad you found us!!
Ryan does!! He got a free cruise actually from casino offers! Pretty sweet deal!!
I am in the process of booking our family on the celebration on Dec 8 2024, working on 15 cabins. Love for Ryan and Kala to Join us. Meet in Jacksonville and we charter a bus to Miami the day before. Mike J
That’s so exciting! You know we love the Carnival Celebration so this is quite tempting 🤣 But we have 2 Carnival cruises already for 2024 and we would love to throw in a Europe cruise or Hawaii cruise. However I did just buy 2 lotto tickets so ya never know 😉
Great videos. We are planning our first cruise. Would you recommend royal or carnival??
That’s a tough question there’s so much to unpack here and we hope to do a video of this in the near future. I would say it depends on a few things both cruise lines are great. Just some general advice I would research the ship you’re thinking of booking and try to decide if you care more about the ship or the destinations. I would definitely recommend an Oasis or Freedom Class and above ship on Royal and since we only have experience on the Excel class with Carnival that’s what I would suggest. Again it’s going to depend on where you want to go and what sort of cruise you’re looking for but I hope that helps!! 😎🍻☀️
Did you guys book the Jubilee in February? We’re booked for February 17-24, 2024
Omg! We booked the sailing starting on the 24th right after you! You’ll have to warm it up for us 🤣 thanks for watching! 😎🍻☀️
Ok, we’ll get it warm for you guys! Thanks
We're Diamond on both Carnival and Royal, we think the difference is,,,
Carnival is participation, Royal is sit back and watch!
What we mean is Carnival has more and better participation activities, like deck parties, etc.
where Royal has better sit back and watch like Broadway shows, the ice shows and the diving shows!
Oh wow you’re diamond on both lines! 💎 You’re a serious cruiser!! That’s awesome!!!
I’d say that’s a pretty fair assessment!
Just found you guys. Love the videos. We are Carnival people, but we have only done 1 Royal and it was a smaller ship. We’re only gold on carnival because we alternate Disney and cruising. We have the Jubilee booked for feb 3! Ports we’ve done so we are going to enjoy the Havana cabana!
Yay!! Welcome to the channel we’re glad you’re enjoying the videos ☀️🍻 That’s so exciting, we’re so excited for the Jubilee we are on the Feb 24th sailing and have also done these ports before but it’s been a while and we’re excited to get back! Thanks for watching!! 😎🍻☀️
My first cruise will be Royal Caribbean Voyager of the Seas this coming September out of Galveston. I'm also considering the Jubilee from Galveston next year, or the Harmony from Galveston. I absolutely love the look of the new Carnival Celebration, and Mardi Gras, and the Jubilee is supposed to be pretty much an exact replica. Your probably not going to really notice, but the Jubilee is showing to be the largest in Carnival's fleet in terms of gross tons, when she arrives. I would love to try the ICON in 2024, but wowser she is premium priced, of course I travel alone, so I have to pay double.
Awesome that’s going to be a great first cruise! We’d love to try the Icon but you’re exactly right, it is super expensive right now. We also want to try the new Celebrity Ascent to try out another cruise line. We loved this ship so if it’s exactly the same that’s ok we’ll still have a great time. It’d be nice if there was some minor layout changes so it feels new though. Thanks for watching!! 😎🍻☀️
When in port in San Juan the tax is charged because San Juan is a United States territory.
Great info! Is this only Carnival or other cruise lines as well? I noticed with Royal this isn't a thing. Thanks for watching! ☀️😎🍻
@@ryanandkala I got charged In San Juan while in port. Bought the Mrs. one of the drinks in a pineapple and they charged me tax.. Didn't have the drink package. Maybe that makes a difference?
