Royal Caribbean Symphony of the Seas Full Ship Tour 2023

[@LONESTARINDIE]

I love the ship tours ya’ll do! They are the BEST of any cruise channel, also a 30 minute plus video from my fave cruisers is such a DELIGHT ❤

[@Cruisewith]

Thanks

[@sylvannaberkowitz3792]

They really are!

[@chevlife3311]

My favorite Sunday activity is listening to you two while eating lunch. Great overview !!!

[@leeg713]

Going on this ship in September for my 40th with my wife and two young daughters. Looks great thanks for the video! :0)

[@maryanncapece2623]

Ben and David. Another great ship tour as always. Love your honest review of the ship as well. Thank you for all your hard work.

[@Cruisewith]

Thanks

[@michelleluvbeachsunsets4529]

Great job on this ship tour! The best I’ve seen. This ship looks beautiful. I would miss seeing the sea though. I love ships that have many places to relax and watch the sea go by.

[@mariepalkiewicz852]

Lovvvvve you two! Addicted to your tours, binge watching!

[@davehorton7712]

we always hand wash before entering and on leaving food areas, I do like your tip on sanitizing before eating, yes the serving utensils are touched by the lazy sods who dont hand wash / sanitize and like you we see many.

[@Cruisewith]

We always cary a sanitizer with us too!

[@Cindy-by3ho]

Many people don’t wash their hands after they go to the washroom. One good thing that has come from having a pandemic is that hand sanitizer is readily available for the public to purchase now.

[@nakahn9106]

I caught a nasty cold or flu on my recent cruise. I heard many different people with a nasty cough all week and I ended up catching it towards the end of my cruise. I don’t know if I got it from high touch surfaces like at the buffet or if I got it from being mashed on the tight elevators all the time with everyone breathing on each other. Annoyed but thankful my Covid test was negative.

[@caroledowney6908]

Cruised the ship last May. First cruise after Covid and it was packed full. … In the Solarium, the lower level lounge chairs are usually available. Ate lunch at Solarium cafe most days. Loved the bar next to Park cafe and rarely mobbed. We really enjoyed the food at the seafood restaurant by Solarium. Went for lunch a few times.

[@leem153]

Love smaller ships for myself!!!! Southern Caribbean is my favorite then the Panama cruise second!!! 😊❤ your videos

[@patriciakujan]

WOW WHAT A SHIP! I DONT TRAVEL AS i AM SENIOR WHO HAS ANXIETY BUT I LOVE YOY VIDEOS! I AM SEEING THE WORLD THRU YOU EYES! SENDING HUGS FROM YOUR ADOPTED GRAM IN cT USA XOXO

[@wolfsonryan]

This ship is gorgeous! Thanks for taking us along! 😍

[@adamsaldana5462]

I just got off my first Cruise. I took Voyager of the Seas and I absolutely fell in love.

[@wendingourway]

Always enjoy a great tour! I'm always on the lookout for little areas that many don't know about to escape the crowds. Fantastic guys! Bruce and Otis

[@Cruisewith]

Thanks Bruce and Otis

[@EricD_]

I really enjoyed the drone footage. More more more!

[@manflagds]

Ben y David! Muchas gracias por sus videos! Han sido de gran ayuda para nosotros! Un abrazo desde Puerto Rico!

[@Cruisewith]

¡Gracias por ver nuestro video!

[@pegedey1291]

You always get such beautiful views and hand each other the narration so well. Bravo for the slides being included!

[@karlhaug5001]

Actually saw a live bird flying around central park this year when we were in the Western Caribbean. Experienced fantastic customer service when on board

[@Cruisewith]

We had a pigeon on this crossing!

[@johnwelch5132]

Hello, just discovered your channel today and throughly enjoy it. Also a pleasure to discover and see Stef’s channel. Great that you’re all linked up. Take care, enjoy your travels and really look forward to watching more. 😊

[@susanwestfall2051]

I love watching you two…you are always so upbeat and find humor in everything. My kind of people! Absolutely agree about the lack of sea views. We sailed on the Oasis and that was the main thing we didn’t like about it. Our favorite ship is the Jewel…lots of windows!

[@wendyvelez7751]

Loved loved loved this video! Going with family on the Symphony in December and getting the full tour has me even more excited! Thank you! I’ll make sure to view the rooms video mentioned as well!

[@bronniepaterson4694]

Brilliantly done as always….👍🇬🇧

[@denimdreaming]

Hi you gorgeous two. Me and my boyfriend just got back today from our first cruise on the Celebrity Silhouette (Bruges and Amsterdam) it was fantastic. Really enjoyed it. Sending you both love ❤️

[@deamauger3714]

You are both entertaining and funny. Thank you ❤

[@Cruisewith]

Oh thank you!

[@TVHouseHistorian]

I was on the Harmony last month, and there were SO many children being allowed in the Solarium, it was ridiculous. I had a Central Park balcony, and had no issue with noise whatsoever. I'm a light sleeper too, and do not like noise, and my state room seemed adequately insulated. *CP is my very favorite spot on Oasis-class ships* - especially in the evenings. What I loved most was opening my sliding door in the evening so I could hear all the crickets and outdoors noises. Oasis-class ships have a special place in my heart, just because they seem to be such a central part of the Royal Caribbean brand. I almost cannot imagine doing a Caribbean sailing on any other cruise line. As for it not feeling like you're on a cruise ship, I have to say I really like that concept. If I want to feel like I'm on a cruise ship, there are other areas I can go to in order to get that feel. However, on sea days, I really love the "neighborhood concept." I feel like it's a feature that gives the ship more of that "resort feel," and that's what some of us want. It's a great concept for families who want to stay busy on sea days. I'm always amazed at how each neighborhood is so gigantic it feels like it takes up the whole ship, but it doesn't. I'm a little unnerved that they hold the Chef's Table experience inside the Solarium. Chef's Table is such a formal dining experience, I'm surprised they would hold it there. On the Oasis, they conduct CT inside an enclave located within (what I think was) the main dining room for Pinnacle and Suite guests, and it was very special. The Wonderland restaurant looks incredible. I'm dying to get on the Symphony. Now, as for the description of Park Cafe, I would not call it a buffet. I would call it cafeteria-style, since no one's handling tongs. Absolutely love dining at 150 Central Park every time I'm on an Oasis-class ship. Now, as for the overall included food situation, I have to say that I was extremely disappointed both with the buffet and the MDR. Both the quality and type of offerings were very disappointing. Overall, I absolutely love the Symphony, and can't wait to sail on it for the first time. It has a few amazing features that the other Oasis-class ships don't have. Man, the Harmony had a lot of VERY noisy families onboard who were allowed to occupy areas that were for adults only, so I feel like the crew could have done a better job. Symphony looks cleaner for some reason. By the way, I want to include that, anytime you're on a Caribbean itinerary, Perfect Day at Coco Cay is the ultimate Royal Caribbean experience. It was so much fun roaming around the island, and enjoying all the different activities. The food was really really great on the island too. Ben and David, you guys are the cream of the crop when it comes to cruising vlogs - top shelf - pinnacle - *THE* top standard. I really really really enjoy the both of you. Stunning content, as always.

[@Kayw434]

We were on Symphony when it was brand new and found it to be a beautiful ship! Really enjoyed this vlog Ben and David! You really are the best cruise and travel channel!!! We look forward to your videos and are enjoying ones that we have not seen! Wish we discovered you a long time ago!!! Thank you for the excellent videos!!!

[@danasandoval624]

We love the Oasis class ships. Our last cruise was Celebration with Carnival for a change. Not one time while in any restaurants or bars were there sea views, the space used for the boardwalk and Central Park on Royal was filled in with mostly bars, one larger entertainment spot and couple of restaurants, once again these are inside venues so no ocean views. There are plenty of areas on the Oasis class to go and sit and watch the ocean so we disagree about less ocean views. We have previously had cabins on the boardwalk and never noticed noise, not inside the cabin or on the balcony. We had the advantage of watching the aqua show from our balcony. You guys always do a good ship tour.

[@Cruisewith]

We appreciate your feedback and perspective on the Carnival Celebration and the Royal Caribbean Oasis class ships.It's great to hear that you've had enjoyable experiences on the Oasis class ships. We truly appreciate your support and kind words about our ship tours. We strive to provide accurate and engaging content for our viewers. If you have any suggestions for future ship tours or any other topics you'd like us to cover, please let us know. Happy cruising, and thank you for being a part of our community! 🚢😊

[@danasandoval624]

@@Cruisewith thanks so much! I’ll ts always great to get a message from you guys. My hubby and I stream you to the tv every week and enjoy the two of you so much. If he is working on Sunday I watch you then rewatch with him on his day off. I hope you have plans to sail on Royals new ship the Icon when they sail it out. That would be fantastic and there is so much ship you guys could do an extra long video. Glad you loved Hawaii, the scenery there is spectacular. I will see you on Sunday when you post your new video! Don’t change I love your humor. Happy cruising!!

[@bertadelaudebri7179]

Truly enjoyed your professionally filmed and narrated cruise 🛳 tour. Thanks!

[@Ted_K_Have_a_nice_day]

Another great video guys! Keep on traveling!

[@bgregg55]

You do such a great job with your walk-throughs & we look forward to your honest opinions.

[@cweekss8786]

Such a good video!!!!!

[@ervcz]

I just booked my next RC cruise a couple minutes ago on Symphony of the Seas! 😻

[@Jrsun4ever]

Hello!! Hope you’re having a good day

[@chrisyboy2000]

So gorgeous! Been on Harmony, next is Oasis!

[@cydneystephen2814]

Hey guys. I’m late but I’m here. Watching now. Thanks in advance for I’m sure an amazing ship tour. Thanks so much and see you next video. Back to the video 👀

[@kaleegirl45]

Thank you Ben and David for the tour, everything looks so amazing, love the garden, I miss that you didn't go eat and comment of how much you love it or not. See you on your next video

[@christinebradshaw8581]

Love your vlogs, always entertaining with useful honest information. Thank you so much for taking the time to share them all. We have booked a cruise to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary, we are going on Celebrity Edge in November from Dubai to Mumbai India, Cochin India, Sri Lanka, Phuket finishing at Singapore, booked an extra 4 nights in Singapore. It's only our 3rd cruise , I'm really looking forward to it. Thanks again guys for the great vlogs xx

[@soremekun]

Amazing production on this tour video! Very well done.

[@Cruisewith]

Thank you Michael

[@dumbrat5285]

I’m going at the end of this month, pretty exited. 😮

[@mewho8714]

This ship looks absolutely incredible! Thank you for the detailed tour! We are looking for a ship that can cater to my very active husband and 16 year old son (they would love rock climbing, surfing, slides, zip-line, etc), and much more mellow and less adventurous daughter (18) and myself. This ship seems to have something for everyone.

[@lisawilliams4049]

This video is excellent. You show much of the ship. Thank you for explaining about all the different restaurants and things to do on board.

[@SuperDrLisa]

Your cruise reviews are THE BEST

[@hollis1440]

Thank you for this tour gentlemen. It’s fabulous! All your videos are wonderful. We’re going on this ship at the end of the month so it’s very helpful.

[@wendychiverton2779]

I love watching u two , what u see is what u get n bs

[@erikagholston6610]

Thanks for showing us around the ship.

[@conogrady9254]

Absolutely everything is ABSOLUTELY lovely. It's absolutely true, ABSOLUTELY!😂❤

[@Don-xe2qj]

A great video as always. I was the Mariner last week and had a incredible meal at Jamie's Italian. Give it another try. Love the videos. 😀🚢

[@cheese2cake1]

I did a Mediterranean cruise on this ship in September 2023, it was an amazing experience.

[@toraetoday]

A "Marvel of engineering" INDEED! Well said!

[@cynthiamiller]

I also hate that they moved the Schooner Bar indoors. I love the oval windows overlooking the ocean on the older ships.

[@aliasmarg8ta127]

Thank you very much for this comprehensive tour!

[@macarenam2069]

Thank you ! 💕

[@KyleGK01]

I'm subscribing because of the good tips and the fact that you guys will add dad jokes to the video 😂

[@nicklarricks]

The Japanese restaurant at 29:55, if you ever go to these kinds of restaurants, the types are called “Teppanyaki”. It’s kind of like when you go to Subway, McDonald’s, etc, those types are fast food restaurants!

[@alyreadsbooks7560]

It looks like a gorgeous ship. I really do think I would miss relaxing with an ocean view tho

[@tonytiangco]

I love Central Park 🥰 l love the live plants and the feeling and atmosphere of the neighborhood. I also prefer Giovanni's to Jamies.

[@charlesglankleriii2589]

I'd love to sail on Icon of the Seas in 2026 when my wife retires. Hopefully she'll sail out of Galveston. So awesome.

[@Cruisewith]

We cant wait for Icon

[@DailyJAB]

Symphony of the Seas looks fun

[@MrAndrew941]

Brilliant video thanks guys.

[@Lama-dd6xq]

I actually went on this cruise and it is my first time so it was very nice they gave ice cream at the pool and I will always remember this

[@karenglaicar5486]

Nice video. Great info. Thanks and take care.

[@DawnalynForrest]

Darlings! Thanks for the tour!

[@Cruisewith]

Our pleasure

[@brody5211]

Currently on the ship . The food is brutal outside of the specialty restaurants . Terrible service in main dining room too . Breakfast is so bad too The pizza place sorentos is great though! Staff are very friendly and work hard

[@sodiumlights]

Fab video, as always x

[@jeffjackson4150]

Just completed the Barcelona-Barcelona cruise on SOTS last week. Very nice ship!

[@zevmo]

Great taking an usie with you :)

[@jayguillermo5528]

Nice overview. Parts mentioned as complimentary is actually included in the cost of the cruise.

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

Thank you for the video!

[@heyyyjuuuddeee]

I’m watching all these videos of cruises ships/ferries because I want one day to work on them☺️. Just got to do a few training courses first and keep up with learning other languages.

[@Cruisewith]

You can do it!

[@mercyrodriguez5780]

We were on it in July 2022 and loved it!

[@bernoldychrispin1275]

What a beautiful ship very eligent

[@wshazbot62]

As usual, thanks for the tour

[@Cruisewith]

Thanks Deborah for watching

[@Vicapr]

We were on the Wonder of the Seas in December and there are Actual Birds in the park. We were shocked! A finch an another larger bird, brown.

[@user-wj3ne3jf7j]

This ia wonderful ship good tour 32:28

[@cansfloatbottlesdont857]

Take a shot whenever they say “as well”. Make sure you have a few gallons handy🤪

[@Cruisewith]

Cheers

[@julesrann]

Thanks. Another good upload, glad I’m not playing a drinking game for every time you a say speciality restaurant ………. There doesn’t seem to be May free places to eat. 😂😂😂

[@Chillynorth]

Or a drinking game triggered by the phrase "As Well." (56 times)

[@Cruisewith]

Cheers🍻

[@lindastover9541]

Great video ❤❤❤❤

[@felicias7806]

The solarium area is on a completely different level compared to rest of the ship. The interior design is stunning, I especially love the art piece with the reflective rainbow shine. It’s a shame that it’s not a common aesthetic on board the entire ship.

[@jessievales8025]

This ship is beautiful

[@knitnut246connie7]

Thanks for the professional tour❤️🇨🇦❤️

[@user-tw5di9yn9b]

love this video...going on rc navigator this coming october. can not wait

[@PDYLT]

Your guys should go back to Singapore for the wonderful spectrum of the seas

[@mamapetecooley7324]

great tour

[@krisofccc]

i love this ship! im actually going in it in november going to hade jamacia and bahamas!

[@michellemessina8923]

Thank you for reviewing these cruises. They are so helpful to our family in choosing the one that's best for us. On this particular cruise, the symphony of the seas, in the windjammer food section was there a separate celiac friendly option for breakfast, lunch and dinner buffet style? We have a celiac family member who is also highly allergic to wheat. Thank you in advance for you time and response.

[@barrettpickett5603]

On the ten story slide as I struggle with heights thought daunting. You showed it is a magic carpet ride. On the park with fake birds. Wish the put a net and add parrots and stuff.

[@malaplava4865]

Love your work ❤

[@storytime9446]

Wonderfull

[@mirandadunsmore-gladue5477]

❤❤

[@thesuncollective1475]

Totally jealous...one for the list

[@99999myk]

Been on the sister ship, the Oasis. The food was great even in the main dining room. I don't know what the waves were like since we didn't have any rocking that I could feel.

[@maliapitolua5965]

Hello from NZ 🇳🇿. Hopefully you will be able to tick off your bucket list a cruise to NZ 😊

[@Cruisewith]

one Day!

[@MrFroglips69]

Another fantastically groovy episode. Quite informative. Hey guys, what is you top camera to use to get professional shots for your shows. Also what lens do you like to use?

[@LewisGeddes]

I'm 13 years old but the place at the start looks so nice😭

[@amandarosewarren]

Absolutely brilliant jokes as always

[@sirrobertrobertson2270]

Wow.! It's like a small city. What is the cost for a inside cabin. Have a wonderful day. Cheers.!😇

[@DuckHunterGaming]

After taxes and fee around $1000 per person for a 7 day

[@Cruisewith]

It really varies depending on the cruise

[@gangadhergajigiri4052]

When I am lucky enough to watch a live stream except when I am watching it on TV on my phone😕

[@julieann5697]

Park Cafe is my favorite place for breakfast!

[@roldanduarteholguin7102]

Export the Q*, Chat GPT, Revit, Plant 3D, Civil 3D, Inventor, ENGI file of the Building or Refinery to Excel, prepare Budget 1 and export it to COBRA. Prepare Budget 2 and export it to Microsoft Project. Solve the problems of Overallocated Resources, Planning Problems, prepare the Budget 3 with which the construction of the Cruise Ship, Building or the Refinery is going to be quoted.

[@joanneklein310]

Is it possible to take food like grab and go when it a port day?

[@Cruisewith]

You are not supposed to. Many ports do not allow fresh food (fruit and veg) to be taken in.

[@naki888]

The thought of having to stay on that ship for a few weeks ist so terrifying 😅

[@vickikohler5067]

Hi Guy's 😊 You mentioned about booking the Shows as soon as you board the ship because they fill up quickly. I was wondering if you can book the Shows ahead of time before you board like you can for the excursions? Thanks! Great informative video, you're so awesome. I did miss getting to watch a video of when you had breakfast, lunch and dinner and critiqued the food which are so much fun to watch 😋😋😄😁😆😂😂

[@Cruisewith]

You cant at the moment.

[@user-iy2ml7ss9c]

Hi Ben and David, can I ask a question !, do you guys go on a "holiday"?!!!. I hope this isn't a silly question but I just so curious as you go on so many cruises and I see it as your "work"(very enjoyable I must add!!). As I'm new to your wonderful channel and watch it religiously every weekend, there are so many. I know this is over a period of may years but just wondered what you guys do to "relax!!- Luv yer Guys !!!

[@Cruisewith]

At home is when we relax and on cruises is work which is amazing! We can't ever complain.
