Wow!! Those options in the buffet look amazing! Those tacos also looked great! I feel like this ship resembles the only cruise I ever been on years ago! I don't even remember what cruise line we took but this is making me want to book another cruise asap!

We booked our first cruise ever for this November, on the Caribbean Princess! I was looking for information, which is how I found this video and your channel. She's a lovely ship, and this looks like it would be a classic, sort of old-school cruising experience. We're very much looking forward to it.

You are very informative, and you go through the ship touring it very well. Explaining all we need to know. I like it because you don't play background music while you are talking. We have Been on five Princess Cruises. But not on the Caribbean Princess. We are leaving in October on the Ruby Princess for a week long California coastal cruise. We have been on other lines but we are sold on Princess. Must be our age , lol again thank you 😎🛳

Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave the comment and feedback. It was good to hear you like the format and lack of music. I have used music in the past but I felt (as you say) that probably less distracting to just have the commentary. There seem to be a lot of people like you that love Princess and so stick with it as they know it suits them best. It is always great to find something that works!

Yeah it sure did. The ship didn't have the sanctuary when I was on board. That used to be the basketball court and the piazza area wasn't updated yet. I think it was updated a few months after I was on the ship. And the buffets were also different. It used to be Horizon Court and Café Caribe.

Thank you. I enjoy seeing a variety of cruise options. Would you consider this to be mid-level or budget friendly? We have family who will be first-time cruisers and thought they'd like an lower priced ship to start with.
@tipsfortravellers7 жыл бұрын
+MidWest Katie thanks ! It is mid-level in pricing. I agree with you that if they looking for lower priced they could consider either looking at an ocean view or inside cabin on Princess or (as you say) look at Carnival / Royal Caribbean / Norwegian instead

Thank you so much! Great tour! I was wondering if the ship is too large for a North America New York to Québec Cruise? In terms of access to the ports, and not needing to take a bus for an hour to get into the city centre?
@monkeyb1820 Жыл бұрын
we just did this route. It was a great cruise. Food and entertainment were great. In quebec, the port location was a tad annoying, maybe an extra 2/3 mile walk from town, but Princess did run continuous bus shuttles.

Thanks for the review it convinced me that this is not that cruise for me. I HATE the sales add on's these ships have specialty the Bullshitrite jems they have for sale. The specialty restaurants should be included in the price, as well as tips. Anybody willing to pay extra for this stuff is just missguided. Good luck....
