About us 👪
We are Justin, Tristan & Josh
We started cruising in 2019 with a Norwegian Fjords cruise on P&O Britannia, we fell in love with the ship and cruising and quickly booked a further cruise in the summer on MSC Bellissima. We now have completely caught the bug and have over 9 cruises in the next 12 months...
We love to travel and wanted to share our journeys with the world and they are our way of remembering the great times we’ve had a chance to share some of the tips and tricks we use when travelling as a family.

What a fantastic video, absolutely full of great information and insider tips, well worth a watch. Thank you!!
Ahhh thanks Kevan! 💕
Great video guys! We agree with you Costa is much better than MSC, in our opinion the only way to travel on MSC is in Yacht club. We are off to the Toscana tomorrow and we can't wait! Taker care
Have a fantastic cruise 🥰
I’m a fan of Costa. I really like the experience they offer especially from the moment you book from home, very kind. Did you know that on Costa, some drinks at the buffet are free? Hot tea, water, hot milk, hot milk with chocolate, american coffee and juice for breakfast and afternoon snack. While at lunch and dinner only water. But only at the buffet
Good tips thanks! 😊
@@CruiseBuoys The price of the Suites, which includes Room Service, Top Drink Package, Butler, & Suites Dining Room, pays for itself. Adding the drink packages alone, nearly get you to the suite price. Much better service, MSC, your either Yacht Club or your not!
😃
Was a bit nervous loading this one - I’ve just booked my first Costa cruise on Smerelda next summer and VERY excited about it - thought you were about to warn us not to book with them, haha!
Great overview, and also really fair!
Ahh thank you!
You will have an amazing cruise we adored Smeralda! Where are you cruising to?… anywhere exciting?…
Make sure you go to the Michael Jackson night it’s A…mazing!
@@CruiseBuoys it’s one of the (what I’d call) ‘crowd pleasing’ Med routes - getting on in Barcelona for 7 nights - one of the Circular routes. I was really concerned when I saw the price, but you’ve reassured me!
Savona is lovely and worth exploring as it’s not visited by other lines…
If we had time off work left we would be booking on Costa again ASAP
Sailed Costa Toscana ex Barcelona, brilliant. FYI water is available in the buffet free.
Thanks, Good to know about the water ... we think its now available at mean times too. Love Costa Toscana so excited that you thought it was brilliant :)
I was on Costa Toscana from Barcelona to Dubai a couple of weeks ago. There is the Salty Beach Street Food on deck 16, next to the indoor pool. It opened from 22.00 until 06.00 in the morning. You can get food all night here. The pizza place on deck 8 was open till 01.00 and you could get steaks in the Heineken club until 02.00 in the morning.
Thanks for watching!
Thats great… although unfortunately I believe those are additional charges whereas most other lines do offer an included option… 😊
I must admit that I am a Costa fan, due to my first cruise experience on the inogural sailing on Costa Atlantica, Very impressive and the best dinner menu's ever with several courses
I have done twelve Costa crusises and only Seven MSC
I find Costa beats MSC slightly, MSC the cabins are a little samaller, the evening meals have a smaller menu five rather than Costa's seven
Entertainment the same, as are all the announcemtents, several lanaguages but only those that pertain to you
All ships are brilliant, only Costa have larger cabins and areas
We are fans of Costa too 😊
Costa dropped us on june because we were young, and MSC let us to go onboard and it was a very good experience
😃 glad you had a good cruise
Great video - agree with your take. But not to say I wouldn't go with MSC again if I got a good itinerary and price.
Thanks for watching! 😊
Just love all of your vids. You always seem to present a balanced review with some helpful insights and tips. Where are you off to next?
Thank you!
Next is a short Christmas Markets cruise on Ambassador Cruise Line… then P&O Iona in 2023
Just done a long Costa Toscana Dubai to Barcelona. Your detailled and quality critical review supports my view exactly!
Thanks.
The disembarkation and accounting was chaotic.
We paid full internet package as our work demanded same, but we're extremely disappointed
Ahh thank you!
Sad to hear about the internet we didn’t have to work on our Costa cruises so did t use the internet heavily
Costa💛💙
😃
Great video guys! You should have way more subscribers! Think you may have changed my mind! Was going to book MSC... might book COSTA now 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Thank you ☺️
We love Costa and MSC… but Costa is really worth checking out especially if you like a lively Italian atmosphere
Looking forward to your reviews. We will be on Iona from 2 Jan for a post Christmas and Birthday treat.
Enjoy! I’m sure it will be fab!
Costa Suites include their best drink package and a suite dining room.
Good to know thanks! 😃
Got decent rate for solo cruise for Costa Toscana in January. Bonus is that they run the whole thing including flights so possibly less issues there.
Now maybe MSC in summer, if the price was good. But currently they are getting more expensive. So I have to see.
Enjoy 😊
Gr8 video guys. Well done!
Thank you 😊
This vlog made me smile. 🥰
Thank you ☺️
Thank you for your input!
😀
Yay! Thank you!
Thanks for watching 😊
I also think that Costa is better than MSC, and if you are at least Costa Gold, you get a lot of advantages and interesting perks, and if you are a Carnival shareholder, you also receive a 75 euro cabin credit per cruise with Costa.
From January 13, I will do 4 B2B cruises from Dubai on the Costa Toscana, and it cost me only 1356 euro in total in single cabin, so yes Costa has very good prices.
We love Costa 💕
That’s Ana amazing price especially for 4 cruises!! Have an amazing time
@@CruiseBuoys But like MSC (past Black Diamond) you lose your status too! Royal my Diamond Plus is for life!!
😃
What I want to know from watching various MSC vlogs is how they can create all those chocolate sculptures and put them on display without them melting?
It’s special modelling chocolate… they also do refrigerate the cabinets from memory
@@CruiseBuoys interesting thanks guys. they do look awesome ships. love robot rob.
Robot Rob is fun
Look at all those ship models...
Thank you 😊
Looking forward to Virtuosa next April
It will be immense!…
I need to try Costa 😄
We will happily join you 😃
Ignoring price i would think that costa is MSCs big sister. given that they have a museum and the shows look a little bit similar to celebrity shows and MSC look as crazy as Roya Caribbean, Not including Yacht club. Not sailed either so just guessing of course.
MSC and Costa are really quite different… MSC is more general European where as Costa is very definitely Italian 😃 both are great though
@@CruiseBuoys Just watching Costa Vs MSC video AGAIN. £rd time lol finished the whole play list now. Fantastic channel guys keep going.
Ahhh Thank you ☺️
Need help booking my honeymoon. Never cruised. Want too but will have 2 year old. Who can I turn too for best help. Have so many questions. A travel agency or agent will tell me what I want to hear to get money. Need honest advice
