One of the reasons why I enjoy your videos is that it is very apparent how much you enjoy yourselves on these voyages. You aren't simply going or filming for content, nor do I feel like your humor or clips are forced. You both seem genuinely happy and honest and that is what makes these videos so enjoyable to watch.

[@dianecudney6506]

" fluffy and delicious, just like David". Ben, you're a hoot!!

[@MattMaloneMD]

I just LOVE these two. So natural, so heartfelt... and you can really feel the pure joy of what they're experiencing.

[@paulasimson4939]

I could watch you guys all day long. Your sense of fun and joy is infectious.

[@pippinw1894]

I binged them yesterday and subscribed

[@captainmauricee1694]

Me too!!

[@Cruisewith]

Thank you, we are so pleased you enjoy our videos!

[@vladimiraboicheva3854]

Hello Ben and David! Im binge watching your channel for one month now! I found your channel randomly because I love cruises! You inspired me go cruising again after the bad bad times we have to go through! Love your long vlogs! Can they be longer? Hope so! You make my day. Happy cruising! Greetings from Bulgaria 🇧🇬❤

[@Cruisewith]

Thank you Vladimira. So lovely to hear we have inspired you to go cruising.

[@philadams964]

Makes me smile from start to finish, well done boys love your enthusiasm

[@toddcarrier8832]

The Anthem was one of my favorite sailings due in part to amenities, activities, entertainment, ship size and cabin layout. Cannot wait to sail aboard the Anthem again. And that cabin is the best so much storage and separate wardrobes. Magnifique.

[@Supa_C]

You guys are so entertaining and until my family and I are on our next cruise, I will live vicariously through you. Keep it up!

[@kimheins4399]

Anthem of the Seas! One of my favorite ships. I've sailed on this beauty twice and I can't wait to go again.!

[@chuckspencer5296]

Ohh my... Ben, that whole "sweet Honey Boo Boo child"... That was just to much!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣... You had me cracking up through the whole video!!!

[@cbart4285]

Ben: "Keeps going on about eating healthy food and then he got really fat....so I don't see how that works." OMG! I lost it laughing! 🤣

[@ericajantos5433]

Please. Please. Please! We all need a "I am so excited!" Ben and David shirt. I would love one for embarkation day!

[@sarahgreen7704]

My heart is racing as I watch this. Crying happy tears. Love y'all. Have fun.

[@faywheeler7]

We sailed on the Anthem when she was 3 months old from Southampton we had a cabin right at the front of the ship it was massive it’s such a beautiful ship all the animal photos in the lifts and my favourite was Gigi the gigantic giraffe hope you have a great time can’t wait to start cruising again next year xx

[@hottesteverything6545]

I cried with you guys .. my first ship was on Ovation (Oct 2017) and on Spectrum (Dec 2019) ... I felt your joy seeing the interiors of Anthem - their sister-ship.

[@msmarycasillas]

“It’s a bloody flamingo!” 🦩🤣 Love you both ♥️ Keep the puns coming.

[@kentongonzales1315]

As a past crew member, you both remind me of the trial cruises with agents and enthusiast's like yourself. Good job Ben and David.

[@Victoria_VO]

Love how David says “Hiya”! You both got my ultimate favorite desserts!

[@jamiewillhite6355]

I loved this. My first cruise was Anthem from New Jersey to New England and Canada. Thanks for the memories.

[@luvjets]

Where’s the casino?!? Get your butt to the casino!!! Love you guys!!! 😎🛳

[@lenisselippert1639]

You inspired me so many times. We now have three cruises booked over the next 6 months. Love watching you both.

[@elizabethblevins5736]

Hi Ben and David. My heart broke to hear that people on the cruise were so rude and unkind to you. Of course, I don't know you personally, but just by watching your videos, your personalities shine. Plus, you're always honest and upfront. Live your happy life. ❤

[@holqueen2672]

Hi. Love your vlogs. Just booked our 1st cruise and was grateful for the tips you gave. Purchased several items you recommended. Thanks Guys.

[@marci8850]

Looks like you guys had a great time ❤️❤️❤️ Ben and David are back 🥳🥳

[@johntait491]

Thank you for posting these cruise videos. It gives us a "fix" for those of us here in Australia whose cruising opportunities have been curtailed till at least the end of the year. 😢

[@soilihuovinen5243]

”It’s trivia time, bitches!” 😊, what a throwback to those lovely Sunday evenings with you! Just love all your awesome videos, your sense of humour is the best! ❤️

[@TprGordon]

Ben & David , I have to tell you that I ABSOLUTELY love your video's , your video's and humour are 2nd to NONE. PLEASE keep up your EXCelent work.

[@johnhenfrey5936]

Your enthusiasm is fabulous you can feel the excitement coming through the screen thanks lads.

[@bryanwhite4845]

I don’t know what it is . But there is something about you guys that I like 👍😎

[@lisaabere4592]

Your videos are so wonderful... you seem so down to earth and friendly, and you are both just so charming! Anthem is my favorite ship, I had a wonderful time aboard her a few years ago. And David, I always thought I was the only one whose favorite part is the unpacking!

[@dancarey285]

The best video I have ever seen on this ship. Every cruise line should be begging you to sail with them.

[@davidchalmers3982]

I enjoyed the pre cruise cruise from 4th to 6th July which was invited guests only. Our one day at sea was unfortunately cool and then wet but it was a great cruise. The crew were especially welcome as they were now back at work. The ship app was very good.

[@DawnalynForrest]

Darlings! I’m so glad I found you! Thrilled you show the yummy food! 🤍

[@juliethomas3087]

"It's a penguin!" 😂😂

[@CrystalDrangonfly]

I wish I’d known you were going on Anthem, I’d have gotten you to say hi to my favourite entertainment director Jeff Eaton. I’m so glad he’s back to doing what he loves. Sad he’s not still on Ovation, but good for him.

[@vickielopresti5767]

You both are just so entertaining, and make me smile so much! Thank you for taking us along on this fantastic cruise!

[@Ginmegsy]

Remember boys all lifts ding once for up and ding twice for down to assist the blind before the doors open so you know which way it is going

[@Cruisewith]

Oh we didn’t know that!

[@montyboswell6509]

I did not know that, either! Lois

[@annemarieelton2069]

Ah guys we loved the Anthem ! 💕& you brought back great memories for us We are hoping to book for next year Thank you both for this review Great Love from us both (Anne & David Dublin 🥰☘️) xx

[@sylviaredmond8386]

You guys are hysterical! I thoroughly enjoy watching your vids.

[@kiddlesk]

I love the bit about deck 13. My favourite wind-up on a cruise is getting in the elevator with a crowd and asking the 'driver' by the buttons for "13 please". Sometimes they just keep looking for that absent button !!

[@TimeisReel]

Guys, Anthem is my second favorite ship, next to Oasis Class. It is a very Smart Design. Every space seems functional on the ship. And it's decorated so nice. And yes David, the Tv does pull out. There is a latch on the back on the side... Great Ship. I look forward to Odyssey. It went back to one large Dining Room, which always reminds me of Grand Cruising...

[@bronniepaterson4694]

We take the hooks night lights and we spend ages sat in bed going through the planner with our highlighters… That drinks packages are crazy…we don’t get drink packages…..we take out little speaker it’s nice to have your own music… The crew do seem friendly…bet there glad to be working etc…. Quite right calories don’t count but luckily they have great gyms…. I run 5/10 miles every other day….guilty pleasures guilt free…😊 Great series…..👍🇬🇧

[@Kayw434]

Watched 11-23-2023 Another fabulous vlog!! We love you both and we are so glad we found your channel!! Thank you Ben and David!!

[@4pairsofitchyfeet]

HI Ben and David, Just a quick note to thank you for sharing your stories with us. I am loving being back on the sea through your clips. I am Sydney, Australia and we have 2 cruises booked and no way of knowing if they will go ahead. However, we have our fingers tightly crossed. It is pure enjoyment to see that cruising has restarted over in the UK and we hope this will carry over to us soon. Can't wait to try the Royal Carribean cruise one day. It looks spectacular. Take care, Jane :)

[@vereneedy1430]

You two just crack me up😂

[@supriyajoshi1347]

I don't believe I found u guys so late!!! Such positive vibes.... Best wishes

[@MrKashmire123]

I had the delight of being aboard Anthem between Oct 15th-20th (at about a 65% discount, through a ballot of Wolverhampton Wanderers fans - with RCI sponsoring our Training gear), docking at Liverpool and Belfast and seeing this vid prepared me nicely for what a simply beautiful ship and a fun first ever cruise! I can only thank you both for it and the work you do, in showing the beauty of the seas and why they are explored by us!

[@lawjones2177]

'Fluffy and Delicious Just Like DAVID " lmao , ty guys I just love ya

[@justinc5356]

We sailed on one of the very last Anthem cruises in Feb 2020 just before COVID…. She was slated to goto dry dock in summer 2020 for “Amplification” - doesn’t look like it happened…. Love that vessel

[@robertwilson466]

Watching this old video because I'm going on anthem in a month these videos are infectious you guys are the best

[@ForeverYeung]

Thanks for walking us through your cruise experience. I miss it. I can’t wait to get back on cruises again. I’m also a platinum member with RC .

[@cindybogart6062]

This is the first video I have seen with you both. You seem like so much fun & so very friendly & easy going. I will be taking my first cruise next year & im trying to figure out where to start. That ship is gorgeous. Thanks for this.

[@JohnSmith-cq4hg]

So fun to watch, Ben, you said your cream puff was just like David “fluffy and delicious”. Hysterical. So entertaining to watch you guys. Thank you David and Ben - Good Night.👍

[@johntarmaggiore5488]

I truly love you guys !!!!! We are booked for Holland America in January 2022 on the new Rotterdam . Thanks for all the amazing, informative and great information. If you ever book a group cruise - my husband and I are in !!!! Glad you are both safe and cruising,. Your videos were the highlight during covid.

[@samleggett8494]

That ship looks amazing ! We love watching you guys, great tips and always fun🍍

[@8803surri]

"Puff"...heheheh .......loving the cheese puns!!!! As camp as a row of tents you pair......brilliant video as always!

[@marsss7679]

Always love your blogs. The food is always a WOW moment to your reactions, good or bad. Love RCI.

[@jackiebyers3424]

Great to see your videos again. I’ve missed you guys. I love Royal so am glad you are having a great cruise on the Anthem OTS. Lovely ship. Awesome balcony cabin.

[@Pitsler]

“It’s Trivia Time, bitches!” 🤣🤣🤣 You two are hilarious!

[@katiekendrick8866]

When you make Diamond you will love it! Have fun 🤩

[@irdonna]

I have watched every single video you gentlemen put out since before covid. I am now 30 weeks pregnant and will obviously be cruise deprived for quite some time. So I really live my love of cruising through these videos.

[@mpTraveller87]

You guys were in point in this one! Had me laughing out loud many times not the least of which during “ice cream face” and “cream puff” snicker…. Going on the same ship this coming February! Thanks for the preview!!

[@icutmyownhair2039]

So happy to see your infectious positivity again. I truly enjoy your videos.

[@nelsondeaton9271]

YOU TWO are the reason we cruise and selected ships!!

[@sarahgoodman7824]

OMG I’m going to love these vlogs especially as we’re booked to go on her next year!! Can’t wait for the other videos thanks for the content love you guys!! ❤️🤍

[@Gregor559]

Love the energy and enthusiasm. Thank you both.

[@mannydeluca6485]

Greatly entertaining boys!!! Next time give David a bib for his ice cream lol lol. You guys really tucked in at the oliver restaurant everything looked delicious. That was a great deal for the specialty restaurants but not the beverage package. Can't wait for the next video cheeeeerss!!

[@elizabethclifford215]

I love your videos Ben & David!! My Husband and I have just booked our very first cruise on the Sky Princess next May because of you two! Thank you for the amazing content xxx

[@constanceworden487]

You will love Princess ❤️

[@thelawgreens]

Great Vlog guys….we are just about to start our cruising journey, your advice and experience is helping us to make the decisions that are right for us. Thank you.

[@ginacassidy6783]

Hey guys just a little note those plugs are North American as they are the same in Canada 🇨🇦 thx enjoy your cruise!

[@cathybarber2624]

Great to see you guys are cruising again - we have a few booked for 2022 as have to wait a little longer here from Canada to board US cruises. Hoping border open by Jan 2022 or sooner. You guys are quizmasters as you only got 1 wrong! I am with David on the unpacking - after that is done you know you are on vacation mode! Looking forward to seeing the rest of your vlog from your Anthem of the Seas cruise 🚢

[@CapeFearFamilyLaw]

I love the rolling menu next to the video. Such great editing. And the "BeBe.." also adorable. I loved this video! And the hot peppers ... "Oh Kelly Clarkson" ... LMAO

[@OrdinaryDude]

When we boarded the Getaway in Copenhagen in 2019, we never even sat down. We dropped off the luggage, checked in, and walked on board. I was shocked. All the videos and reviews I've seen had me prepared for a 30-90 wait.

[@debbiecousins3745]

Got to love the Moira Rose comment. More people need to watch Schitt's Creek. Amazing series.

[@porchagordon7815]

You guys have me excited to start cruising again! I love watching your content! And I love your energy!

[@TheRickels]

I just introduced my wife to your channel with this video and she’s hooked. She absolutely adores you two! Keep up the great work and travel safe.

[@Cruisewith]

That’s awesome thanks for watching

[@jeanettehodges5158]

Jamie's restaurant food looked gorgeous!

[@alej8902]

Hi Ben and David! We love your channel! The Anthem of the Seas is absolutely gorgeous 🛳🤩🌊

[@kathypreis7410]

LOVE the Anthem! Thanks for the video! 🛳💕💕💕

[@jot_s8139]

I'm actually watching this with THE biggest smile on my face!!! Hopefully see you guys onboard a cruise soon

[@1966sjones]

Amazing the difference in watching Royal an Viking video vs MSC. Take away the splendid looks of the MSC an just reading body language Royal an Viking blow MSC out of the water. I maybe wrong but just my opinion from what videos I have had time to watch. To coin a southern US phrase y’all are a joy to watch, thanks

[@benwilson9150]

270 is my favorite spot, it is like a secret hideaway. On ovation in the morning I go get a coffee and hide upstairs in there and watch the world go by, I then normally progress to the cafe on the esplanade and get my second coffee and retire to my balcony until lunch then I am back in 270 for a good part of the arvo for bingo a what ever else may be on.

[@CruiseManTravel]

We are going to be on that ship in September! Looking forward to.

[@malaplava4865]

I just love you guys and your lovely videos. Looking forward to my RC January cruise with my mom and brother celebrating mom’s 70th🎉

[@jaru75]

The obstructed balcony is lovely since it gives you shade and also Incase of adverse weather or heavy rain its well sheltered.

[@greengrands]

We loved the Anthem! The Northstar was one of our favorite experiences! Enjoy "sailing " with you!

[@karinbrantner3081]

Great job guys, I loved the content, it is always fun and funny. It is a little bit of an older video but only discovered you two recently. Stay safe!

[@captainmauricee1694]

Your videos are always cool and full of happiness!!

[@staceyscheuerman101]

Love Anthem of the seas

[@MrAshleyley88]

I'm due to sail on Anthem next month. Fingers crossed nothing gets in the way of my sailing (or any others) going ahead. So grateful to you two for this video.

[@TLK7074]

Headed out on Quantum next year, thanks for showing her sister ship....so exciting to watch you boys back on the open seas...thank goodness for 2021 and vaccines.

[@kathypreis7410]

“KELLY CLARKSON!” SO FUNNY! 🛳💕💕💕

[@justinc5356]

The TV does pull out, it’s a release latch on the left side

[@williamarmstrong3604]

The Boy's are smart,informative, and lot's of fun!!!!!!!!

[@jetsetcruiser3292]

Great video guys, we have 2 cruises booked on Anthem and it was good to get an insight on what to expect. Royal Caribbean are our favourite cruise company and Anthem is on of our favourite ships.

[@charliedavenport9609]

Awesome update, thanks guys. I know you're enjoying your cruise! Glad to see you back cruising!

[@Learninggrowing219]

I die from laughing anytime I watch your videos!

[@williamhaddock4968]

David and Ben I love your cruise ship adventures Keep up the good work you two make a great team

[@karenbarnes3589]

I will be cruising in August. I’ll think about your saying “ I got all the feels”. I can relate how exciting it is to walk the gangway.🎉🎉🎉
