Love this! Sailing on Escape next January and I can't wait!!! Thanks for the info. Love your podcast and YT channel as well!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Awesome! Thanks for listening (and watching) - have a blast!!!

[@zenkakuji3776]

My unexpected surprise on the Escape was the more spacious free weight section of the fitness center compared to other Breakaway class ships. It made the workout sessions much better.

[@CruiseTipsTV]

YES! That is amazing. The gym was enormous (and busy!) on our cruise. Lots of people putting in the time at the gym on ours too!

[@WanderingWorkaholic]

Cruising solo Escape this Jan 27th. This were great tips especially about the mojito bars. i just love mojitos. And participating in games seems fun. Will be recording my 7 day daily vlogs. Hope to have lot of fun!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

So excited for you! Have a blast and enjoy those mojitos 😉

[@annbrosnan1]

CTTV is becoming my favorite YT & podcast for cruise info. I heard Sheri did a video showing the Thermal Suite & this was so great! I've never salted NCL but that alone is making me seriously consider trying it out!! Loved this content!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Thanks Ann! YES, the thermal suites are spectacular on NCL!! ❤

[@mal1090]

Such great footage and information! Looks amazing!!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Yay! Thanks so much Theresa!!!

[@poodlebone]

I absolutely loved The Escape on my New England/Canada cruise a couple of months ago! The Mojito bar was definitely a favorite.

[@CruiseTipsTV]

YAASSSSS! Such a fave for me, too! Thanks for watching!

[@LucyBird]

Escape looks beautiful!!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

[@mcshiggitypilot5901]

I was on The Norwegian Escape Dec 9-16th eastern caribbean. @ windy and 2 choppy sea days..Everything was Excellent!!! Loved the Raspberry Mojitos as well as the Great and fun Bartenders James & Oliver! in the Vibe Beach club! The Vibe Tribe was Phenominal as well as the Spa!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

YUM, I will have to try the raspberry mojito next time, that sounds fab! So glad you enjoyed, and thanks for coming by to say hi!!!!!!!

[@karenjoncour6151]

I love thermal suites and this one looks amazing!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Right? So outstanding! Thanks for watching!!!

[@jenbrooks5872]

Lol you can't get into the small venues unless you are a haven guest. They have priorities for booking.

[@karynclay4061]

I want to go on Norwegian Escape just to try Food Republic! It looks delicious and so easy with the touchscreen. One of my favorite surprises on a Norwegian ship was H2O as a place to relax when there are not activities happening. Very peaceful and nice having a little bit of water to cool off with this needed, as well as a nearby bar to get a refreshment. 🍹

[@janiebean1390]

I've eaten at Food Republic on both the Esacape and the Joy. It was easily one of my favorite meals of the cruise! Lots of variety to choose from.

[@CruiseTipsTV]

OH, girl! It is SO GOOD! EVERY dish was fresh, and so incredible. We still talk about it all the time! Thanks for watching!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Nicely done! The Escape is on my list for a future cruise.

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Woot woot! Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy as much as we did!

[@christinapittsley786]

This makes me so excited for Feb 3 I'll be sure to search out some of these things!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Whohoo! Excited FOR you! Thanks for watching!!!

[@Mandysbigdaddy]

Video is great as always.

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Aaaw, thank you!!!!

[@michelleb749]

NCL has wonderful spas!

[@CruiseTipsTV]

AGREE!!!!!!!!

[@laureljaneg]

Went on breakaway we did not go to private island due to high wind. Do extra sea day. I went to inquire about cost was asked for S&S card she handed it back with a receipt!! I was not pleased by this. But I didn’t enjoy the thermal spa. I did put that in my review that they sent me after the cruise. I am aware Spa services are separate from NCL

[@supola3646]

Fantastic information! Does the fee for access to the Vibe area include the speciality food that you mentioned? And is that area as loud, music-wise, as the regular pool areas?

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Hi Susan!! Yes we’ve heard that they have lite bites here and there - Escape had fruit skewers, finger sandwiches and cookies. As for noise, it’s generally much quieter and has more of a bar meets hot tub vibe! Hope that helps!

[@supola3646]

@@CruiseTipsTV thanks! Trying to decide between the Vibe beach club and the Thermal Spa for the week on NCL Bliss.

[@CruiseTipsTV]

@@supola3646 oooh that’s a tough call because if the weather takes a turn, the spa will be the better choice!!

[@supola3646]

@@CruiseTipsTV good idea! I booked the thermal spa just now as I hear it can fill up quickly.

[@CruiseTipsTV]

@@supola3646 YES!!

[@willcooper6980]

Interesting that NCL is adding Wheel of Fortune as a theater activity. Other cruise lines have it in their casinos.

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Yes- so fun! Starting on this ship and rolling out to the fleet soon. Thanks for watching!!!

[@debbiewillis9786]

Our experience on The Epic last spring was mediocre at best. Our greatest disappointment was the cancelation of our tour to Florence at 10 pm the night before. That was to be the highlight of the cruise.

[@travelwithdebandnick]

wow looks like an awesome ship :)

[@CruiseTipsTV]

It is a fun one! Love that thermal suite!!

[@travelwithdebandnick]

[@kristensandstrom9154]

I just booked my Escape cruise and booked the Vibe as I always do, but can you tell me... is there an elevator that goes to deck 19? I walk with a cane and just want to be prepared.

[@kathypreis7410]

Yikes! I can’t get used to Junior with platinum hair! It’s growing on me! ❤

[@CruiseTipsTV]

I KNOW! it was part of his Halloween costume, and I'm ready for it to go "back to normal"! Hah!

[@ScotchOnyx]

Can someone explain to me how the '2nd Guest Free' offer works? I feel I'm getting click baited into it when a price showing 1500 quick add up to 4500 in the total amount due. And there is still a price breakdown cost of Guest 1 and 2. So how is this 2nd Guest free?

[@user-ew6ie2ip4d]

Find another cruises trust me.. I work in Norwegian cruise and I cannot accept the sh*t of service they do.. you come clean ..you live the whole cruise in sh*t They terminate me when I keep explaining the truth the wrong things that is happening. .. spend your money to others. Trust me.. and tell this to all.. Norwegian is after only for your money.

In Spice H20, the water grotto was unique

[@CruiseTipsTV]

Yes! So refreshing on a hot day!! Thanks for watching!!!

[@chriskuva]

but what about the Bermuda Triangle?! 🤯

[@francoisw]

Cruising is totally overrated!! Took our first (and last) cruise ever on NCL’s Getaway out of NYC, 10 day Bermuda/Caribbean cruise. Boarding was a nightmare, took more than an hour to get on, then had to wait almost 2.5 hrs for rooms with nowhere to sit; totally overcrowded; tried 4 different floors and sat on floor for 2.5 hrs. Felt like sardines in a can. Never realized a cruise ship is so crowded! Waiting inline everywhere! Can’t get a seat in a bar, lounge or any venue for that matter. Can’t find an open deck chair! The island stops are short, not nearly enough time to see much! Excursions are exorbitantly expensive! Finding a table for breakfast in the buffet was a nightmare every morning! Drinks are expensive, if you’re okay with waiting in restaurant lines every night, the food is generally good. Disembarkation at the end of the cruise was a free for all nightmare. The “orderly” disembarkation plan completely collapsed with no announcements! Chaos!! So why do people even do this?? I honestly don’t know!! Never again for us, even if you pay us!

[@amymiller8653]

Awesome video @cruisetipstv!!
