@@CruiseMonkeys yes I bet it is absolutely lovely to do the cruise round the Caribbean. We have done a week in Barbados, but it is that horrible flight coming home that destroys all of the relaxation you have had. Any tips guys?
Ah, I'm heading here later this year, so thanks for this! That beach absolutely blows my mind every time I see it - the health and safety officials obviously haven't seen that one...!!
The health and safety officials went there and were blown away! Never to be seen again 🤣 It’s a beautiful place, the tour we did was fab we really enjoyed it👌🏻
Pigs planes and Lizards! I have never been but have decided, St Maarten is my favourite Caribbean island. Booked a mini cruise, and a week long cruise, next year, fingers crossed, Julie will be ok, both cruises, are with P&O. Thanks a lot for the video.
Wow what a great day out and about. St martens is my bucket list island to visit. Luke your so mean the Gavin, I wanted to hear the explanation of the piggies 😂😂 Thanks for showing us the island. The both of you looked so happy to be there exploring ☺️
It was a great day out! You really don’t want to hear the pig story, it’s sad. We don’t do sad on our cruises 😂 You need to visit the Caribbean it’s loads of fun and there’s plenty of sun!
The Iguanas look so cool, kinda prehistoric, we have lace monitors where I live in Queensland, they easy be 1.5-2 meters long but not so scary looking lol Seems like a great value tour 👍
It was a fantastic tour! We were really pleased with it and we’d highly recommend “Caribbean island tours” they’re on Facebook. Glad you enjoy our videos! We really appreciate you taking the time to comment and say so, so thank you! 👍🏻❤️
What a fun one 😂. That tour really good fun and the little piggies were so cute 🐖. Have to say the ship is growing on me, especially like the high ceiling in the buffet. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it! They were super cute! Aye, we agree, that double height buffet really does open that area up and makes it feel less claustrophobic compared to buffets on other ships 😀
I see that Luke and Lindsey have something else in common their love of Pigs. I think the music in the "old fashioned" disco sounded very familiar to me..Great fun video again guys wish we were there
Culinary crash car! 😂 Love that description. Going to St. Maarten soon again… you like Caribbean Tours-is that what you said? Yes, cheaper than cruise ship excursions. Caribbean beaches are beautiful-too bad not more beach time. I hate iguanas! I need to see the whole island… I’d hate to land on that runway! Pigs are so cute (and you had bacon for breakfast!). Luke is a show in himself.😂Love your banana finger waves and your editing.😁Tuscan Grill looks nice. How much are the drinks packages, & is that restaurant extra $?
Yes we booked the excursion through Caribbean island tours they have a Facebook page where you can book your trips etc. Tuscan grill/ restaurant is one of the four main dining rooms onboard they all have a different theme and menu to accompany that theme, they’re all complimentary restaurants. The chargeable dining venues are the Eden restaurant, the French bistro/le petit chef, le voyage restaurant, the fine cut steakhouse, raw on 5 and the rooftop garden grill. The drinks packages fluctuate all the time, we went for the classic package which includes drinks up to the value of $10 there is another package which is dearer but includes more drink’s however we were happy enough on the classic package and if we wanted a drink out of our package we’d have it as a treat. Hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching, commenting and for your continued support it means so much to us. ❤️
Miss Britannia..our last Caribbean cruise in 2019 🥺 my next mission is the Celebrity Edge class ..….im torn…..been to Mayo beach ..only saw a small plane come in…you have to stand there for hours 😩…your vlogs are the best ❤️ lighthearted and fun….I know Gavin takes care of Luke when he gets abit squiffy 🤗🤗 good lad 💪🏼💪🏼 I’m going to bed now as I feel.’ A little on fire’ as spent afternoon sunbathing in garden 🤪🤣 x
We really like Britannia, need a trip back on her again. Yeah, the Edge ships are stunning! Now we’ve done Maho, we probably wouldn’t again, as you say you have to time it right and it’s also quite crowded, a passing visit is enough, would rather spend time at Orient Beach (the clothed part of the beach haha). Yes, we take care of each other ☺️ Hope the sun burn cools off! 👋
That excursion bus was great. Such a good value for money and the sights it took you too were lovely. Is a smoothie washing machine on the Christmas list now?
Another awesome video guys , we are back in St Martin later on Arvia , was there on Brittania last year 😁 How long did you get at Maho beach and what time did you get back to the ship? Quite fancy this trip but the wife wants time back in Philipsburg for some shopping 😢😁
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! The trip started at 10am and was a full day. We had about an hour and a half at the beach and think we were back around 5pm. The ship didn’t sail till 7pm (going by tine stamps on the photos) hope that helps 😀
Looks like a great day! Did you get to visit Great Bay Beach at all? I'm a bit reluctant to book outside of the cruise ship offerings incase we get delayed for some reason & miss the boat. Is that a non issue? What time did you get back to the ship and when did it set sail? Thanks
No, don’t think we did as we went to Orient Bay beach for a stop then Moho. This tour was via Caribbean Island Tours who used Bernard Tours, a very reputable tour operator - they are used to cruise ships, it’s their break and butter and they will make sure you get back on time. Just let the driver know you all aboard time and they usually get you back in time to do some shopping etc - it’s not really an issue on these islands.
Glad you enjoyed it! This was the Adventure tour from we booked independently through Caribbean Island Tours Facebook group as we booked a few different ones: m.facebook.com/groups/822293368132085/ - pay a small deposit and then cash on the day to the driver. The tour was ‘Bernard’s Tours’ so we had people on our little bus that were either holidaying on the island or on the other ship also in.
This one we booked through Owena who runs Caribbean Island Tours on Facebook. Far more reasonable 😀 Easy to get excursions in port in the Caribbean too
Hoping to go on a crusie to the carribean this year! Any advice if we should take cash or does everywhere except card? Plus, how safe are the destinations? As a long traveller would my possessions be safenon the beach unattended? Many thanks, fab video as always! Xx
Oh fab! We had both, so independent tours we paid cash, you’ll aldo want some cash for tips, toilet and small purchases. At the established bars we use cards without any issue. We felt safe at the tourist spots, but not sure about leaving stuff unattended or too far away from you, just like anywhere else to be honest. Some beaches you do pay for a lounger and etc, so you may be able to hide it under a towel
How do you pronounce Marigot? 😂
Hi cruise monkeys loving this vlog on another cruise
Thank you Nicola!
Think it’s pronounced MA-RI-GO….drop the ‘t’ at the end)…google it ❤️
We are absolutely loving the series. A Caribbean cruise is something we would love to do.
Awww thank you! Oh you must try, great way to beat the winter blues!
@@CruiseMonkeys yes I bet it is absolutely lovely to do the cruise round the Caribbean. We have done a week in Barbados, but it is that horrible flight coming home that destroys all of the relaxation you have had. Any tips guys?
Thanks guys for your help on Facebook. Love your humour and help. Stay safe and ❤
Our pleasure! Have a fabulous time! Thanks 🙏
... my favorite place on Earth ... aren't you glad your ship stopped for the day ... I want to go back so bad ... just so glad you went to St. Maarten
It really is an absolutely amazing place 😀
Ah, I'm heading here later this year, so thanks for this! That beach absolutely blows my mind every time I see it - the health and safety officials obviously haven't seen that one...!!

Think it may be one of our favourites too!
Oh that’s fantastic! We’ll cross our fingers for you too 😀
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Luke - 'aww, can we take the piggie home?'. Also Luke - 'they didn't have any bacon for my cheeseburger'.
I see his plan🤣
Oh gosh…. We didn’t spot that but now you’ve said it, that’s hilarious🤣🤣
😂😂
Luke "it was like an old, ancient disco"
Gav "it was 70's/80's"
🤣🤣🤣
Luke forgets some of us were 80s children 😂
Wow what a great day out and about. St martens is my bucket list island to visit.
Luke your so mean the Gavin, I wanted to hear the explanation of the piggies 😂😂
Thanks for showing us the island. The both of you looked so happy to be there exploring ☺️
It was a great day out! You really don’t want to hear the pig story, it’s sad. We don’t do sad on our cruises 😂
You need to visit the Caribbean it’s loads of fun and there’s plenty of sun!
Great video boys! I enjoy following along! *hugs*
Awesome! Thank you!
The Iguanas look so cool, kinda prehistoric, we have lace monitors where I live in Queensland, they easy be 1.5-2 meters long but not so scary looking lol Seems like a great value tour 👍
They do look prehistoric don’t they?! Nothing like them here in the U.K. thankfully! It was fab value!
Love watching your videos!
Awww thank you so much! 🥰
I'm really enjoying these vlogs as always. Looks really beautiful. Will definitely do the carribean soon. X
That’s great to hear! Oh you definitely should!
Looked like a great tour!! Really enjoy your videos.

Looks wonderful 😊
It was 😀
I want to go there just for aeroplane beach lol. Great tour, excellent vlog as usual. You two are so entertaining ❤
... the best place for plane nuts like me who like beer .
@will gaukler don't mind the beer but if I'm going that far it's gotta be a cocktail lol
Oh you must visit Maho beach if you go! Thank you 🥰
🙌🙌
What a fun one 😂. That tour really good fun and the little piggies were so cute 🐖. Have to say the ship is growing on me, especially like the high ceiling in the buffet. 😊

lolz...love your waving at Britannia.
Hehe! So glad someone filmed it 😀
you guys are so hilarious . love you lots.
😘
I see that Luke and Lindsey have something else in common their love of Pigs. I think the music in the "old fashioned" disco sounded very familiar to me..Great fun video again guys wish we were there
Hahaha! They were cute piggies! The ancient disco?! 🤣
Went to Saint Maarten on MSC Seaside back in 2018, loved the planes flying overhead. Looking forward to going on Arvia in July
Oh fantastic, that will be fab! 😀
Man after my own heart Luke - I would have wanted to take the pigs home too 😊
They were so cute 🐽
@@CruiseMonkeys oh I know, and very intelligent too (I used to show pigs for a hobby).

“Have you eaten all the slugs?” 😂😂

I need to go on this ship...
Do it!

That sounded like a plane close by as you left St Maarten when you were on way to Sunset bar was it ?😊
yep, so close you can feel the blast as they take off :)

Wonderful!! Do you book your excursions through the ship or on your own? Thanks!

@@CruiseMonkeys ok thanks. I'm in the process of booking the first cruise on the new NCL ship on Dec 29th to the Caribbean.
Did people get dressed for dinner then get changed again later ? love your vids on celebrity Edge next week
The dress code is quite casual on celebrity- we were jeans and shirts mostly, like we’d wear if going out to see friends :)
Hey guys! Are smart chino shorts allowed in the evening or strictly trousers please? 😊
It doesn’t appear so sorry according to www.celebritycruises.com/gb/faqs/onboard-dress-code
Hoping to go on a crusie to the carribean this year!
