Best Cruise reviewers on KZbin.

[@otterlips8414]

The difference is you are livin' it with 'em.

[@JoshRachael]

Thank you so much!!

[@JoshRachael]

That’s our goal! Bring you along with us!!

[@RoryConwayAcoustic]

@@JoshRachael myself & my wife are on the Wonder in January 2025. Looking forward to the upcoming vids.

[@ski9600]

wow, not sure if I could deal with a ship that large. Just looking across at the other rooms and the end of the ship gives me the willies. omg, she said the 16th deck. Anyway, the short rib at the last place is right up my alley. Expensive though. so cool that they have the video windows there with Colorado train scenes.

[@JoshRachael]

It was a great experience overall for us but definitely too short of a cruise for us

[@glavegas0010]

Just a note. Pools on the upper decks of ships are limited due to their weight. That’s why the solarium has limited water features. The Allure is going in for a multi million dollar AMP in the spring and will receive a totally new look. Very similar to Utopia. We personally would not do a three or four night cruise on an Oasis class. Just too much to do in a short amount of time. We were on the Anthem out of Southampton a few weeks ago. No smoking allowed in the casino or anywhere inside of the ship. It was heaven. Thanks for sharing. Josh, trim the beard man. You looked ten years older. Saying that with love. 🙂

[@JoshRachael]

Haha I was waiting for someone to tell me to shave. Good news I trimmed it up shortly after getting home and can’t believe Rachael didn’t say anything until after watching our videos back 🤣 makes sense about the water but it just felt so odd in the solarium and not enjoyable unfortunately

[@JamesAreySeattle]

That faux train experience was wild! The short rib dish looked fabu. -- James

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks James!

[@ruthadams7133]

Great video. I can’t wait to sail in Utopia🤗

[@JoshRachael]

Have fun!

[@CashMopar]

Beach club is amazing. Been to Coco 3 times and Beach Club was the best. Hope to do it again next time.

[@JoshRachael]

Can’t wait to try it

[@deborahmcclintock5955]

Sssssooo jealous!! Have fun guys!!

[@JoshRachael]

😁

[@geoffbowen6285]

Love the video. Heard you was going on the Wonder of the Seas in November. We are too we sail out November 3rd..

[@JoshRachael]

We are a week after your sailing!

[@YouUsAndAI]

Great video!! I sometimes forget that you guys are on a ship. How was the pickle garlic at Gio’s? AMAZING!!

[@JoshRachael]

Delish!

[@lisal77]

Thank you so much for this vlog and showing everything. Looking forward to the pros and cons segment. I don’t think this large ship is for me…too many people all around. I would not be able to relax. I would probably eat at giovanni’s every night though.

[@JoshRachael]

Haha thanks Lisa! The size of the ship was great, the length of time was our biggest issue

[@tedfisherHSCC]

The Boardwalk Balcony room is too humid and no privacy. We do like the view of the aqua show though. Giovanni’s is our favorite restaurant for lunch (cheaper). We like to go there twice. Chops is a close second for lunch or dinner. The Shows look great just because they are all new. Royal duplicates the similar shows on each class of ships just different itineraries. Your friends seemed to avoid the camera until end. We agree that the adult pool in the covered solarium is too crowded for the pool space. Love the truck stop for an alternative. We like the quick, grab and go. We always brought soup bowl or cup from the Windjammer and a spoon for the Frozen Yogurt because of the quick melting. We still eat the cone.😅 Coco Caye is a nice offering with the pools, food, variety, tram, etc. We have always avoided the Diamond Lounge because of the attitude of snobbish people. Who cares of you sailed around yet he world on Royal. 😂 Always love the Ice Show!! The Railway Theme is a home run in our opinion. We Liked It! 👏👏👏Pricey Though. We liked the theme, screens for window, show option. Overall, great experience.Thank you for a great review.

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks so much Ted! Overall we had a great experience but it was too short for our liking and yes the interior facing balconies are ones we just really aren’t big fans of after trying them twice now. We probably prefer Oceanview without a balcony at this point, trying it out on Wonder next.

[@kimbradbury9107]

Love this video. I’m glad that @glavegas0010 said something about your beard & Josh you laughed about it 😁because I was thinking the same thing but would’ve said anything 😅do you guys like the inside balcony or the outside with the view of the ocean? Rachael love your name & spelling of it because that is also my daughter’s name & spelling. You don’t find to many like it. Thank for bringing us with us on your adventures 💜

[@JoshRachael]

Thank you 🤣 yea that beard was out of control. I don’t think we will book an interior balcony again. It’s a great idea but so awkward. We would probably choose an Oceanview even without a balcony in the future over this

[@SoSoSeductive22]

Well your a couple his win is your win, vice versa..500 dollar win accomplished everything checked off 😊

[@JoshRachael]

Ha ha - true! We do share in each others wins and losses! 🤩

[@anthonylagano]

Greetings ! You guys definitely did a lot of stuff in such a short time . Getting your moneys worth . I’ve done 3 day cruises but prefer the 7 day or longer. Like this ship but since it’s not offering longer cruises will have to skip it . On a side note MTM Vegas channel mentioned you guys on a recent video . They were talking about your video where you spent 24 hours in Vegas without a room . I thought that was really cool to hear your names on another channel . I let them know I’m a huge fan of yours and they agreed you both are awesome 😎😎😎

[@JoshRachael]

Thanks so much! Been big fans of Mark and Shawn for a long time. Also, we just cancelled our other 3 day cruise for similar reasons

[@pamparr5504]

Rachel I love your sundresses and tops! Could you tell me where you get them. I can’t find any

[@JoshRachael]

I find most on Amazon! At least for the cruises anyway! Here’s a link to both types! Beach Dresses for Women 2024... www.amazon.com/dp/B0CXSGRYJW?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share ANRABESS Womens Summer Floral... www.amazon.com/dp/B09XMQY9J5?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

[@pamparr5504]

@@JoshRachael thank you so much. My husband and I love your channel. Great content

[@TravelwithEbby]

Nice vlog!! One thing I’m concerned about is, I feel like they should put the train tickets inside the room and not outside on the door for anyone to take. I doubt anyone would mess with it but you never know.

[@JoshRachael]

We have never had any issue or concern with theft on Royal Caribbean. It’s always felt very safe

[@TravelwithEbby]

@@JoshRachael someone once stole a magnet from my door on symphony.. that’s the only reason I think about things being stolen from doors.

[@JoshRachael]

@@TravelwithEbby oh yikes that stinks. I think with this you don't have to worry so much since it is still booked under your name and cabin number

[@TraverseCityGuide]

Hey guys, where did you get your matching outfits?!🎉

[@JoshRachael]

Which one? Got a few

[@TraverseCityGuide]

@@JoshRachael the one at @8:15 the blue ones! :-).

[@JoshRachael]

@@TraverseCityGuide Thank you! Those ones we actually both bought different stuff on Amazon that we though would match and luckily did

[@TraverseCityGuide]

@@JoshRachael thanks!

[@judyschultz7855]

Fun! I was hoping to see you both do Karaoke.....next time?

[@JoshRachael]

Ha ha!! I think Rachael has sung along to karaoke once in her life and there were lots of 🍺 involved! But we will watch others all day 😂

[@ronaldsahn9649]

How much more is a outside cabin and do they have balcony?

[@JoshRachael]

I would say a couple hundred dollars per person

[@cruisecrazy7066]

You are in the pool with LOTS of other people. I wonder how many are "polluting" it.

[@JoshRachael]

Including us?

[@cruisecrazy7066]

@@JoshRachael Only you know for sure. But I have my suspicions. LOL

[@AD12396]

I’ve never a been on a cruise yet I watch many of these vlogs. I know that the food will not be as good as Vegas for sure and I eat at great restaurants in Vegas. I also do not like pools or hut tubs since it looks like you are bathing with complete strangers and it’s pretty gross I tell you. On second thought, why would I cruise then?

[@JoshRachael]

Depending on the cruise we sometimes look at a cruise as a moving hotel that we can use the amenities or not, but we enjoy them most for the ease and comfort of traveling to foreign countries without the hassle of booking flights, hotels and need to go thru customs and security in each country. Being able to go to 3-6 different countries in a week with a hotel that moves you to the next location is the ultimate pay off for me. The ship activities is just gravy on top for me

[@cheddarUSA1]

Does rachel have a OF, because she's gorgeous .... love your content

[@JoshRachael]

Eh…nope! Thank you!

[@cheddarUSA1]

@JoshRachael I'm not judging or anything.... just saying if the tourist content doesn't work out, then you have options 😉

[@jamiecar4560]

water park not worth it, don't do it , 4 slides and all you do is wait

[@JoshRachael]

At CocoCay? I thought there was more
