[@louisetvancouver6161]

I swear you have the best videos and perspective on life 👍. Your comment “it’s fresh out there” while on your balcony at night cracked me up , that and Claire grabbing the chocolates off the pillows 😂🤣😂. I truly enjoy your videos and looking forward to the next ones.

[@nickyfurmage]

Very nice of you to say thanks! Claire grabbed them chocolates before I flinched!

[@simonsouth6184]

Looks fantastic mate.. definitely keep sayin awesome!! The views are truly awesome.. cabin & the food looks great too.. that dark sea creeps me out😂😂😂I think I'd keep my arm bands on 😂😂😂 route 66 fire link..!! Love it but I never win on it !!.. the glacier and the sea full of ice truly spectacular... keep these vlog comin mate... I love em..😁🇬🇧👍

[@nickyfurmage]

Glad your enjoying them, mate. we did mention to ourselves about the route 66 firelink at the time😁 The glacier was fantastic and just another nod to how fortunate we was with the weather!

[@TipsyTofuTravels]

We have booked Alaska for next July!! We’re doing a full tour with a company which like you guys is not usually our style but, I wanted to make sure I could just relax and take it all in! It was so expensive but it’ll be once in a lifetime and totally worth it! Your videos have helped us confirm the decision as we live in Calgary now and I had some vouchers for the tour company due to a cancelled COVID trip. Anyway I just wanted to say we really enjoy your videos and have been watching for years. Wherever you are in the world we will be viewers and it’s your personalities and video styles we enjoy the most! If you go on another cruise we would love it if you vlogged it! So fingers crossed we get more!! Take care guys! Zan & Pete x

[@nickyfurmage]

That's fantastic and we hope you have an amazing trip! Appreciate the kind comments, it's just us being us. Thanks for following along on this one, we gad a great time👍

Fantastic VLOG. Ship looks great. Alaska is amazing. Nice that you included some slots. Thank you for sharing

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks for watching, it was a great trip!

[@Rdw7856]

You have some great trips, but we love how you really appreciate it. Also appreciate the effort to show them the way you do. The filming is brilliant, but you both make it feel like we’re sat there with you sipping a couple of good cocktails!

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks Steve, very nice of you to say! I'm happy with how these videos are turning out, it's great memories for us👍

[@laurieb3054]

This trip is definitely EPIC. Enjoying the vlogs.

Amazing 🤩 The Hubbard Glacier looks straight out of Game of Thrones. What an awesome trip, thank you for sharing ❤

[@nickyfurmage]

Your welcome 👍😁

[@suzanneandclair]

That looked amazing, lovely to see how much you are both enjoying the trip. This is definitely one for our bucket list. Looking forward to the next one xx

Thanks! It was definitely a bucket list trip, see you 2 in Leeds😁👍

[@vix3469]

Hey guys we are silent watchers and have been for quite some time. I think your vlogs are amazing the views and the way you vlog is for us perfect. Keep it up ❤

[@nickyfurmage]

That's awesome. Thanks for saying! I hoped these videos are coming across well, I took an absolute ton of footage😁 Appreciate you following along❤️👍

[@Lottie-z8f]

Your enjoyment of this holiday makes these vlogs special

[@jeanroach9441]

My cousins built a house in Alaska recently. Just on what you have posted, I seen more fantastic pictures then what they have posted. Thank you for that.

[@nickyfurmage]

Very cool! Thanks for watching. I appreciate it👍

[@hjb6713]

Absolutely incredible ! Thanks so much for taking all of this video and sharing it with us. Looking forward to more next time. What a beautiful place !

[@nickyfurmage]

Glad you enjoyed it! Your welcome, thanks for watching👍

[@timanders3151]

I love your perspective of it's beauty. Lived here since 1984. Refreshing to see Alaska show off to those who don't see it every day like we do. Thanks for coming to our home!

[@nickyfurmage]

You got it mate, thanks for watching the video👍

[@PRC533]

I've said the same on their other videos, it's really great to get such a fresh perspective on some of the things we take for granted living up here.

[@Lottie-z8f]

You're both clearly enjoying Alaska briiliant filming

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks, we had the best time!

[@michaelpetrichko7382]

Thanks for the tour of the cruise ship. I have never really been on one and it was nice to see. Not a bad deal on price. Loved you guys playing in the casino. Winning 300 and putting it back. Great drinks at bar. Upgrade worth it. Wow what beauty! The Hubbard glacier was amazing to see. Your room was not bad either. Loved when Claire claimed the chocolates.

[@nickyfurmage]

Claire grabbed these chocolates before I flinched! Then tried to make out they were mint chocolate as I don't like it, but they wasn't 😆

[@richardstander7755]

One word AWESOME! You can’t say that enough! Love the room and you’re breaking every thing down! We haven’t been cruising yet but on the bucket list! Cheers and good wishes!🥂🍻

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks mate, yeah that word definitely gets over used on this trip! 😁

[@Sabby899-qp1dw]

The scenery is awe inspiring. I think it would break your heart a little to leave

[@nickyfurmage]

It was amazing to look at throughout the whole trip! Great scenes😎

[@lynnfurmage3093]

Amazing footage , perfectly edited

[@robertstatile343]

Hahahaha!! Loved 24:01 " Oh Shit its fresh out here" hahahaha!!! My favorite part of this Vlog!!!!

[@nickyfurmage]

It definitely was lol, thanks for watching👍

[@luvjets]

Hi N&C - that's a nice ship, not so huge like some of the newer ones that hold over 6,000 passengers. Love your state room too. Hope you have great weather on this adventure. The scenery is so amazing. Love the window view for your dining at Cosmopolitan Restaurant.🏔 So far the bonuses in the casino have been decent for the bet you're making - any chance you have a trip to Vegas planned yet? 🎰 Amazing Hubbard glacier - we loved the music selection you chose as well - great video guys - cheers!!!!😎❤🍻

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks, the casino being non-smoking was also cool too! Nothing booked just yet for vegas. The glacier was breathtaking! I'm always particular on what music I use. Thanks again you guys👍

[@keridowns187]

Watch you both because of Vegas but been Loving this series of vlogs !❤

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks, appreciate you following along👍

[@sharonstirling350]

Looks absolutely amazing. Its been a few years since ive been on a cruise and this itinerary would be one for my bucket list. The whole trip has been incredible to watch so far. Thank you for sharing 😊

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks Sharon, it's great memories putting these together! Me and Claire may have to binge watch them after they are all done😁

[@sharonstirling350]

@@nickyfurmage absolutely, amazing memories for you both! 😊 Always have epic itineraries, looking forward to whatever the next one is but ofcourse the rest of these ones!

[@nickyfurmage]

@sharonstirling350 this one had the most epic itinerary, and took alot of planning.

[@junedimond1693]

Very nice video Nicky ! We love watching all your videos , we are glad you tell prices too so if we ever decide we know what to expect. Can’t wait for your next video…,

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks June, yeah I always like to share info especially costs. Alot of people over the years have gone on trips based off our videos too which is awesome! I'll always try and be informative.

[@rhondalockrey9592]

Decent price for all you are getting. That is strange so light at midnight I have heard of that but to experience it must feel funny. The Glacier looked amazing quite the wow factor. Thanks for bringing us with you so much work for you to vlog then edit appreciate it.

[@nickyfurmage]

Yeah its a weird feeling, we went to Iceland a few years ago and we experienced it there too with no darkness! Thanks again for following along👍

[@sallypeterson5642]

I look forward to your vlogs. I enjoy your gambling too. It brings back memories of our trip there. We stopped at all locations you are going to see. I still love all the music included in your vlogs.

[@nickyfurmage]

That's cool, you can re live & compare your trip! I'm particular what music I use👍

[@dianaallen3707]

Absolutely stunning guys!🎉 Cheers 🍻

[@nickyfurmage]

Cheers Diana 👍😎

[@giarich1983]

My husband and I did a Caribbean cruise out of Miami on that ship in March!!! we loved it. The food was amazing. The whole vibe of the ship we loved and we had great luck in the casino, which was an added bonus!!!

[@nickyfurmage]

Yeah it was a good time, we've still never done a carribean cruise.

[@giarich1983]

@@nickyfurmage come to Florida we will go together!!!!

[@Ittwilend]

Hey Y'all we are arriving Fairbanks the 18th for the 3 day land tour and boarding the Summit on the 23rd. Aug., same itinerary. Our first 7-day cruise and find your vids very helpful. Now that we are in the middle of Debby, KZbin research is about all to do in the rain ...lol. Still have several to watch ..God Bless

[@nickyfurmage]

@lousands745 Thanks for watching. There's still more to come on this one. We had a great time and was really lucky with the weather. I hope you have a great trip.👍

[@Ittwilend]

Don't want to get too far ahead, need to see rest ourselves. Anticipation is high. lol

[@jameshiga8077]

Hi Nicky and Claire. Off to a wonderful start on the cruise. The Hubbard Glacier is so beautiful and breath taking. The video probably doesn't do it justice. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for sharing and take care.

[@nickyfurmage]

Cheers, James, yeah, the Glacier was amazing, and the director said we got really lucky with the weather as it's rarely as clear as that.

[@Tommy2013-b7r]

Stunning.... Excellent editing by Donnys answer to Tarantino... Kp up the Gd Work....

[@nickyfurmage]

Cheers mate, thanks for watching 👍

[@Matrix2021]

That upgrade price to the premium package looks like a steal! Gotta admit, I’m slightly jealous of how peaceful that Sky lounge looked compared to the one I’ve just been on of the same name 😏

[@nickyfurmage]

Tbh even though the ship was full, nowhere ever felt that busy onboard, quite a relaxed atmosphere.

[@jeffgeard4991]

Hi Nicky and Clare from Gail and Daisy from anthem of the seas. Loving your Alaskan vlogs. You’re a fantastic couple and very real. Keep it up 👍 x

[@nickyfurmage]

Cool to hear from you guys! Eems so long ago we bumped into you on Anthem. Awesome that you're following along😁 Appreciate the comments, and thanks for watching. There are plenty more to come on the Alaska videos👍

[@bruceleighton4948]

What incredible views you was looking at unbelievable nice video Nicky

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks Bruce, it was the best place for the awesome views, amazing every day.👍

[@JohnJuan2129]

Hey Nicky, nice win on huff and puff. Would love to hear your insights on the difference between the celebrity and royal experience. Cheers 🍻

[@nickyfurmage]

This was a smaller older ship, but is was the little things I noticed where differences are. Such as, non smoking casino, turn down service, better service in the buffet etc. Other than that, nothing was too noticeable, but I think we would have to go on a bigger celebrity ship to maybe compare better.

[@DreamNVenus]

I was on this cruise! A VERY memorable experience I’ve ever had!

[@nickyfurmage]

Ah nice, hope you enjoyed it? We were all quite lucky weather wise for sure. Thanks for watching the video 👍

[@DreamNVenus]

[@derek5957]

absolutely amazing vlog ... Nicky you and Claire are so informative ....

[@nickyfurmage]

Appreciate it mate, I always like to give as much info as possible👍

[@PRC533]

We were just in Seward with the RV (caravan) for the weekend and I think this was the ship in port that we saw. Looks like a fun time, it's even tempting to check out an inside passage cruise as an Alaska resident. I'm usually feeling that I want to go somewhere warm for a cruise, but this might change my mind.

[@nickyfurmage]

@PRC533 Yeah it's a cool experience, I'm just working on the Juneau vlog which will be next up. It's awesome that Alaska residents are watching the video's, love that😁

[@halfdome86]

Alaska is incredibly beautiful

[@nickyfurmage]

It certainly is, we had the best time! Thanks for watching 👍

[@stuchan3326]

Everything looks so nice, both onboard and outside. Plus, it looks like you get several more daylight hours to see the views. And it’s only just begun! Claire, I don’t think I’d be able to keep up with you. Such a confident stride. Claire ain’t wastin’ any time! Wondering why that gentleman asked if Nicky lives in Las Vegas? Just have that Vegas look about you? Looking forward to the next leg…

[@nickyfurmage]

The camera doesn't do it justice, but I'm happy with how these videos are turning out. Great memories for sure! That guy was the cruise Director and he noticed I was wearing a Vegas golden knights hat, he lived there just close to South point, we had a good chat about Vegas😁 Thanks again Stu appreciate it mate 👍

[@lisal77]

Magnificent!

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks 😁👍

[@stevecavey8481]

Initially,I thought the price of the cruise was a lot but once you break down the cost versus 7 nights of hotels and all the food and drink it’s looking like a bargain! That premium add on looked well worth it as well.😎 Decent sized casino as well. Great shots of the glacier

[@nickyfurmage]

The premium upgrade was definitely a good thing, and it entailed alot more then what I initially thought. TheGlacier was awesome scenes!

[@thelawgreens]

Superb embarkation vlog! Ship looks great, cabin looked fab! Sorry your IPA was ‘Dogger’ I had to explain to Stephen what that meant 😂😂. The Martini bar looked great!

[@nickyfurmage]

Shout out to Stephen who doesnt know the Queens finest English😁 The Martini bar is a blast, I'm sure on the newer bigger ships it would be really cool. I will catch up on your Norway videos when I get the time, interested to see the places we didn't go👍

[@wks4511]

Great video as always Nicky. Very entertaining. Looking forward to the next one. What types of temperatures did you get during the day and evening?

[@nickyfurmage]

It was good weather most of the time, we got really lucky, you'll see that in Juneau & Skagway too, Tshirt weather.

[@JeffreyKemp-d3m]

Great video. What month did you take your Alaskan cruise?

[@nickyfurmage]

The end of may going into June👍

[@28farmall]

So beautiful!

[@nickyfurmage]

Thank you! 😊

[@loisirene]

Aww. I enjoy your vlogs soooo much I am sorry we won't see all of your vacations....but I understand it is a lot of work. I have a British Isles 10 day Princess cruise booked for next year (our 45th anniversary) but may change it to a guided bus tour through Scotland. What would you rather do? 💓🍹

[@nickyfurmage]

Id opt for the 10 day cruise for sure👍

[@TheDillygent]

I agree with Nicky do the Princess cruise. Scotland will still be there when you celebrate your 50th 😍😍

[@GrumpyDad]

Cool scenery...however being a S'uvenor I had to rewind twice, then Google. "Dogger" 😂😂😂😂

[@nickyfurmage]

😆🤣 Dogga

[@diego.miyabara]

Hey guys, I've watched all of your alaska videos, looking foward to the part 10! I've booked this cruise on may and found your videos very helpful! Just one question, how did you guys upgraded the drinks package? Was it onboard or you did before? I've bought the all included package but I couldn't find anywhere the upgrade. And when was your cruise? Thank you guys!

[@clairefurmage6581]

Hi, we went on this cruise on the 31st May for 7 nights. I upgraded on the Celebrity app on a black friday deal they were offering. They also did deals for the excursions, too 😊 Glad your enjoying the vlogs. You will absolutely love Alaska ❤️

[@nickyfurmage]

Thanks for watching, and as Claire said I think we dropped on with that deal. Having the premium option was a nice touch.

[@markcummings3146]

I have never done a cruise before but my wife and I would like to do this route, your guidnance has been great guys. My only ask is if the boat smooth or can it sway a lot?

[@nickyfurmage]

Sometimes if it's rough, but it's not so bad, and definitely not like a small boat. I would get sea sick on a smaller boat as I did in Monterey! But the ships don't bother me in the slightest. We also pack sturgeon sickness tablets just incase.

[@Richard-xm6tz]

Fantastic entertainment 👍 was that 3000 each or total?

[@nickyfurmage]

No, total for us both👍
