Awesome series guys - this has really made us look forward to our Christmas Canary cruise and helped us understand how to cruise for our first time!
Love your Vlogs!!!! Cant wait for your next vlog adventure😀😀😀😀
look forward every friday here in Ontario Canada
😍
Yay! Thank you!
Hello another great video I am planning to take my mother on a cruise for the first time. Never been on one before. I am worried about her being sick
Keep on with video guys x
Thank you!
Ohhh don’t worry, most will provide seasickness tablets (may have to purchase). Recommend booking a cabin in the middle and low down on the ship as you feel less movements 😀
First ship we ever cruised on, Azura will always have a place in our hearts, all caught up now thanks very much indeed.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time on her! Glad your caught up!
Another fab vlog guys, thank you 😊
Thank you 🙏
Thanks guys for the recommendations on this ship, we’re now going to book 😘
Ohhhh fabulous! If you need more info or want the Cruise Monkeys team to quote on the cruise, you can at www.cruisemonkeys.com/book
I really love your daily vlogs showing all the food and excursions and each day’s adventures! They always make me happy and feel like I was there. ❤❤
They will be coming we have filmed the usual ones just need to edit them. We have Queen Anne videos coming up then back onto the Azura Videos 😉
Enjoyed your videos. Looking forward to seeing your day to day shenanigans on there.
We're boarding Azura for the third time next week, so proper excited!
Thank you! Hope you have a wonderful cruise next week! 😀
You’re so right about the up and down open decks on Azura, it takes a couple of days to get used to.
I’m pleased that you enjoyed your holiday and that there was regular maintenance happening which is always a good sign.
Yeah, you get used to it after a few wrong turns 🤣
It was fantastic in all honesty 😀
Love your videos guys ! Thanks for the entertainment!
Aww thank you ☺️
Hi both,
Thanks for detailed info on Azura, agree best sized ship, and with wrap around deck to walk.😊
Our pleasure! A lovely ship :)
I am on Britannia 10-05-2024 for Northern Baltic P and O are 100% value for money great reviews guys
Hope you guys have been invited to the press day on Queen Anne let us know
Fantastic - 💯 they are great value!
Keep your eyes peeled!
Thank you for this series. I’ve said it before but your experience seems to match mine of Azura. I too was a late booking albeit a month out, and found her such a welcoming and friendly ship - she really exceeded what I think were too low expectations!
Thank you! Yes she’s a wonderful ship full of character, which is missing from new mega ships
Really enjoyed this series!😊
Thank you 🤩
Thanks for a great series we have just come off Azura she was spotless clean the staff were amazing and the food was canny ❤
Our pleasure! Glad you also had a fab time 😀
Also thanks for the short ad breaks. A few vloggers seem to have started doing 45/60 adverts which get a bit tedious!
We kind of let RUclips so it’s think but we also take about 50% of the adverts out that RUclips places to try and get the right balance :)
Great video guys, as always! Are you doing a vlog series on Azura? We love watching you both and the antics you get up to! 😂😂
Thanks you! Yeah, stay tuned in the coming weeks!
Thank you for such a detailed breakdown of the ship and services in these last few weeks. One question about the Retreat, if the weather is inclement does it stay open?
Very welcome. It’s open rain or shine. Blankets provided :)
Again thanks for the videos on Azura, still hyped for my August/Sept Med tour on her!
Also do they still sell the P&O plushie ships in the merch store onboard??
On a side note, talking of Casablanca, I've got a mini reposition cruise on Marella Explorer in December from Malaga to Tenerife and she is stopping in Casablanca 😊
Thank you, hope they’ve been useful.
Ohh can’t say we noticed them, lots of teddy’s and definitely no inflatable boats as we asked for them.
Ohhhh very nice, it’s been added as somewhere we’d love to visit too and we definitely need to try Marella!
I totally agree with you, Azura feels like a ship not a floating hotel. I like this, not everyone does but all considered I did prefer Azura to Iona. Who was the Captain on your cruise? We had Captain Neil and he did seem to go the extra mile with his bad jokes and welcome drink reception- which I thought was a P&O thing but different Captains do different things. Also the entertainment hosts were really visible and chatty to passengers all the time on Azura, and even the pool attendants were friendly. I wonder why there is such a difference between ships.
Yeah, absolutely right and such a happy ship too, happy friendly staff make for happy passengers. It was capTAIN Neil we had too, a right character!
Would Azura be the closest match to Aurora in your opinion?
I.e. - with a promenade deck and a tiered Aft?
We loved Aurora❤ and found the lack of a prom deck on Britannia a bit of a deal breaker ( despite the overall fabulousness of Britannia herself - post re-fit)
Think possibly Arcadia has more of an Aurora vibe, and is a stunning ship. Azura is a nice mix, the popular P&O venues like Sindhu, Epicurean and glasshouse without being too big. It’s also hot multiple entertainment venues. If you likes Britannia but want the deck space and prob Azura would be a good one.
Good to see you do your jam & cream the right way
Hahahaha 😛
great series. when is your next adventure and where to ❤
Today 🥳 just the one night in Queen Anne
aw you guys so lucky enjoy keep the vlogs coming. Would leave loved to been sailing on her. one day maybe. safe trip both of you 💜🛳️
hey guys going on my first ever cruise soon on Azura and was just wondering if a alcohol drinks package actually worth it just for the discount?
Ohh fab! It’s a difficult one as everyone is different, for us it works, check out this video ruclips.net/video/rCXLcIXUkNY/видео.htmlsi=mQIZp7N_AxbWTgGZ it may help along with this cruisemonkeys.com/2023/05/new-po-drinks-packages-explained/
Did i see Edwin the Glass House Manager in your photo? A lovely man who used to be on Britannia, always walks around and talks to the diners and remembers you if you return
You sure did! Him and the team at The Glass House we’re fantastic
Thanks once again for a fab video, makes me looking forward to my cruise even more! Just to clarify, the retreat has a fee..does the fee incl the oasis pool (the adult only) or does it cost extra or is it even free? Surpised to hear the steam room and sauna are free, thats brillant... anyway..lovely sunday to you both...bye for now! x
They mention the pool is separate as do the hottubes and those are accessible to all.
@@SoloonaCruise thank you, I just liked to confirm as in another blog (someone else) said, it's a fee for the adult only pool. But nice to find out that it's free, I appreciate your reply.
Hi! The retreat area is changed for, that’s the area high up and has the loungers, refreshments and snacks - the area with the fake plants etc.
The Oasis pool is just below it and this is FREE to everyone, it has a pool and 2 hot tubs that are adult only. Lovely spot. From here you can also access the Sauna and Steam room as these are located in the changing rooms, again free. We really like these are they are included where on ships like Iona or Arvia, the steam rooms and sauna require you to pay. Hope that helps :)
@@CruiseMonkeys Thanks so much for clarification.. That is absolutely brilliant 🙌☺️ x
@Cruise Monkeys ready 4 a QUEEN ANNE MAIDEN Arrival Solent Ships will b livestreaming get ready
The adult pool...what classes as adult...16 or 18?
18 we believe, but no one checks to be honest.
@@CruiseMonkeys no one checked on anthem last year in the solarium. It was like a youth club!
Are you allowed to drink booze or sodas in the hot tubs ..?? 🤔🤔
They didn’t seem to mind about it as everyone was doing it. All glassware is plastic at these bars
What happened to your normal vlogging style? I’d like to see you film in person on the ship! Hope you go back! 😢
Stay tuned, they’ll be coming back!
Can’t wait!! 🎉
