Norwegian Star Balcony Stateroom Tour & Scotland Norway Iceland Views (4K)

Tour the Norwegian Star balcony cabin from our Summer 2022 12 night cruise which called upon Scotland, Norway & Iceland. There were some fantastic views from the balcony during this voyage, and we'll show you how the views looked from the verandah for each of the UK, Norway & Icelandic ports we visited. This stateroom was located on deck 9, cabin number 9178, category BA, and can sleep up to 3 people via a pull out sofa bed. We'll show you how that looked like, plus the pros & cons about this stateroom.
There was only one American 3 prong plug in the room, so if you're from the US like us, you might want to consider bringing an adapter plug:

Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into your videos because of you I just walked down a December Cruise in 2023

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Our pleasure! Happy to hear that our videos helped! 😊

Good morning David and Joann, it was a nice change of pace to see a video from you not related to all the yummy foods on past cruises. Iceland looked cold in the video. Thanks as always. Hi from Bob and Jill in still no snow Connecticut.

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Hi Bob & Jill! Yeah feels nice to have a non-food video out here and there lol. Iceland was quite cold even during the summer- so was Norway. You guys probably prefer cruising to get away from the cold. Thanks for the comment! 🙂

[@DsnyLuv]

Beautiful 😊

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Some really great views from the balcony!

[@bhismilinirampersad3360]

That was a nice room😊 👍🇹🇹

[@TravelTouristVideos]

It was for sure- definitely great for a cruise with beautiful sceneries. Thanks for watching & commenting! 🙂

Thank you for this video, i have a balcony cabin booked next month. Nice touch using the Icelandic letters in the place names 🙂

[@TravelTouristVideos]

You're very welcome- have a wonderful cruise! 🙂

[@kathyvelasquez3682]

Nice video but I am here for the food. Lol. I will never go on a cruise...but experiencing thru your eyes is great. Thanks.

[@TravelTouristVideos]

A lot of food videos coming up so stay tuned 😁

[@CruisingwithChooChoo]

Thank you for this awesome video! I’ll be sailing NCL star next week for Iceland and Greenland but they assigned me an enclosed balcony! I would prefer an open balcony like yours. I enjoyed the tour of your cabin and the balcony views.

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Our pleasure- thank you very much for the comment! 😊 We actually had booked an inside cabin, but then upgraded to this balcony via NCL's "upgrade advantage". We bid $150 per person for the 11 day cruise and it was accepted. So be on the lookout for an email they might send you to bid to upgrade to maybe a different category balcony or a suite. Have a wonderful Greenland & Iceland cruise- the views are going to be amazing!

[@CruisingwithChooChoo]

@@TravelTouristVideos Thank you so much for the tip!! I’ll lookout for it and I’m so looking forward to the trip!

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Thanks! I think so too! 🙂

[@susanriddle9408]

And I really liked seeing the views from your balcony. So relaxing and beautiful

[@TravelTouristVideos]

For sure- this was one of those cruises where getting a balcony is worth the extra cost!

[@amydorman3865]

Would you consider doing a packing video? I noticed you mentioned you traveled with a water pitcher and I’m wondering what other tips and must haves you take on your trips. As always I love your videos and thank you for sharing! 😊

[@TravelTouristVideos]

That is for sure- we've actually had other fellow cruisers come up to us and request that as well! We'll see if we can make one in the coming weeks- thanks! 🙂

[@welltravelledlife]

New subscribers here. We haven't been on NCL in quite a few year. We had no idea they were charging for room service. We will sometimes get in a routine of ordering a really early breakfast and then getting to the gym when it opens. I couldn't justify that if we had to pay $10/delivery. We're ready for ships to get USB C outlets for all of the updated electronics we have now.

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Thank you for subbing! Yeah we don't think that room service fee is worth it either. And agree 100% on the outlets. Recently we were on the Allure of the Seas and they still have the 30-pin old iPhone connectors which was discontinued almost 10 years ago.

[@welltravelledlife]

@@TravelTouristVideos it is crazy how the cruise lines will go into dry dock for a carpet update, but seem to be way behind in the world of technology.

[@chelsealancelle9328]

Thank you for sharing! We're booked in a balcony room on the Star in July 2023 heading to Iceland, Greenland, and Norway. It was great to see what we can expect. How were the seas on your trip? Were they rough? We haven't cruised this area so don't know what to expect.

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Our pleasure! That sounds like a very similar itinerary except with Greenland which is very interesting. The seas did get rough here and there, especially after sailing from Norway, but nothing too bad. A lot of it probably depends on the weather so hopefully it'll be smoother sailing for you cruise. Would love to hear how it went after you get back!

[@user-kp9oz8yv7o]

Thank you very much for your video!!!! One quick question, if you don't mind, was the swimming pool heated? Thanks a million!

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Our pleasure- thanks for your comment! 🙂. Nope the swimming pools are not heated, though the whirlpools/hot tubs are.

[@vapidcity]

Would you say that a balcony was necessary for this kind of itinerary?

[@christinehochschwender6236]

Hello, we are thinking about booking this ship to Iceland and Greenland but are concerned that there are not enough plugs in the cabin. My husband and I both have CPAP machines that need to be plugged in at night and there may not be enough plugs to accommodate that??

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Once you have a converter you can plug a power strip so that it should be good as long as you have long enough cables to your machines.

I like the room.. but i dont like the small bathroom.. its smaller than ours 😳 Also the toilet and the door... 😩 i would feel .... trapped in a little room... 🤭 how did you feel? And the shower.. i better like a door than a curtain.. cuz i feel disgusted when it touch me 😂😂 We have a slide door in our bathtub 🥲

Yeah bathrooms are quite small on cruise ships- that's actually a pretty decent size one. And yes we feel the same way about those curtains!

[@TravelTouristVideos]

I did forget for this one! Part of it I think it's because there were so many ports- definitely remembered for the new ones lol.

5:45 😍😍😍😍 what are they doing? Tender port? -.- 5:58 no way 6:10 yeet.. i want to live there.. lol... Mby some LifeBoats everyday 👉👈 And touching? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😡😡😡😡😡 Hiw dare they to sail so fast...

[@TravelTouristVideos]

In Invergordon the ship actually docked, so not sure why the lifeboat was like that there. Probably testing to make sure it's ready for the next tender ports. And the place you like there is Lerwick Shetland Islands in north UK. That was a tender port- I don't think I posted a video of that ride or our time there where we had a nice long hike. Hopefully I'll get to it in the next few weeks! 🙂

[@gmbh8443]

@@TravelTouristVideos I only seen that one in isa… idk… But there are more videos.. so I’m a little confused… if it at 2 tender ports.. The first one is at the.. bruh place.. The other ones where you see the black ship and standing in the lifeboat.. is that same place? You said you took a ride back to eat lunch and blabla so that must mean.. 4 TIMES ON A DAY😡😡😡😡😭😭😭 I also want that 😭

[@TravelTouristVideos]

Nope that was in Iceland. This Norwegian Star cruise had 4 tender ports: New Haven Scotland, Lerwick Shetland Islands Scotland, Seydisfjordur Iceland and Isafjordur Iceland. I think I only posted the two Iceland ones so far.
