0:40 The Queen looks so happy and relaxed. I think she was a very private person and the Yacht was the perfect, intimate space for Her & The Royal Family.
The Queen first visit to a foreign country was Panama, my beloved country navigating the previous Royal vessel The Gothic. It crossed the Panama Canal while the queen and Prince Philip visited Cristobal on the Atlantic side and Panama City on the Pacific. As a 14 year old student (given the day off) I lined one of our narrow streets on her way to Panama presidential palace in a yellow convertible Cadillac with red leather upholstery. She was so delicate and to me, ten feet away, the most beautiful english rose. I am 84years old now sitting in my back patio next to my mango tree, retired bilingual Panama Canal claims expert, your loyal suscriber, ... and the yellow Cadillac belonged to my cousin Josefina. Her father, a successful businessman gave it to her as a graduation present in 1952. Surprised you, eh!
Really interesting comment! Thank you. I'm from Canada and I did see the Queen 4 times in my life all in Canada. The first time at 5 years old. She did get around. The Queen had the most beautiful complexion even as she got older.
I have ALWAYS wanted to see The Royal Yacht Britannia! Looks like you got to go past the cords a bit, bringing us closer to the authentic experience. Thanks for sharing, Nic! xoxo
Ohhhhhh.... This was one of the most exciting videos I have seen from you... I looovvvveeed viewing the rooms and envisioned the Royal family and guests aboard. I was 5 when I sailed on the Queen Mary ( 1960). My mum, brother and I were in second class . My brother and I would sneak up to first class at night and watch! Lol we never got caught...well.. not from anyone except mum. We were ģoing to England back to my mums home in Norwich. The casualness of the rooms, almost understated reminded me of the Eisenhower's and Churchill's home. This was brillant...
Thank you so much for the tour Nicholas. It was not only enjoyable, but informative as well. It's so nice to see a piece of royalty and history preserved!
We visited HMS Britannia last august and loved it. I can understand the queen needed this place to really feel at home. Thank you to remind us this great moment of our stay in Scotland
Lucky to get a more exclusive look. Ironically never been on Britannia even though I live in Edinburgh and my father built the emergency steering gear (or least a bit of it).
What a wonderful tour! I thoroughly enjoyed it! I felt totally emersed in the tour, as though I was there! Since I may never be able to see it in person, I appreciated seeing behind-the-scenes of the famous vessel!
Thank You Nicholas , , this video brought back many memories of life at sea with my husband a ship's captain , I understand why the Queen enjoyed life at sea so much . My husband's old school held a reunion dinner on board about 4 years ago a great success .
Nicolas love xx l remember you saying it will be a honor and a bonus to see the queen you have accomplished your wish and you were able to visit the Britannia shop where the queen and family love and stayed thru out there journey. Awesome spectacular view my sweet Nicolas love their rooms and their office. Nice to see where they enjoyed their lives together and all the ship is fantastic. You are so cute with the Captain Hat 🤠 it is beautiful on you Nicolas . Thank you for bringing me to see this beautiful place . Our Queen was so happy and loved by all . See you soon love. Take care Nicolas. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
What i like about Britannia is that she is luxurious but at the same time simple and stylish not in you face over the top pomp extravagant decadent like not all but many yacht of today out side of that good video thank you for posting it.
Thank you so much for the tour, Nicholas! That was really interesting and I was particularly struck that nothing seemed over-the-top extravagant or ostentatious. It was all very tasteful and a lot of it quite humble. And their beds seemed very small. That surprised me. I liked seeing the little dogs in each room also. I'm sure they are Corgis!
Thank you very much for this, Nicolas, I really enjoyed it. If ever I should be fortunate enough to visit Edinburgh again, H.M. Yacht Britannia is on my must see list!
Perfect timing for me as I'll be in Edinburgh next week. I was unsure about this spot but you've helped me to make up my mind: I'm making time to visit Britannia!
Thank you Nicolas for sharing this beautiful timepiece with us all. You looked good in the Captains Hat - Captain Nicolas - it suits you. Thank you so much.
As a tax payer I do not see why their luxury should be funded by the great British public; the Queen's sickening level of entitlement re this yacht was nauseating.Parasites, the lot of them.
I had always wondered what happened when the yacht was retired. I’m so pleased to see it preserved and available for tours and for private bookings. I was especially impressed with the engine room! 😊
Indeed, The Royal Yacht Britannia is available for exclusive use evening events, just as Her Majesty entertained presidents and prime ministers on board.
Thank you! This made my day. I absolutely love the Yacht. The colors, the wood, the brass/metals, and how they made it a home away from home. I was picturing the Queen and her family being there and imagining what it would feel like to live that life... especially back in the 50s...a time in history I wish I could snap my fingers and be living in myself. ♥♥♥
I would love to see it. I really like how it's furnished. Seeing it seems to bring forth more emotion since she's gone to be with the Lord. Thanks for sharing, Nicholas.
Awesome to see such history. Definitely very nice but much more down to earth decor than I would expect. Thank you for giving us this look into history!
Great video, we visited Britannia today and it felt very nostalgic from a better time! Amazing and highly recommended to anyone visiting Edinburgh. Out of interest, what is the song called that you play in this video? I love it!
What a pleasure you are. Your voice is both soothing and engaging.
This was fascinating! I didn't realize the ship was still kept up and available for use for tours and parties. Thank you for the tour!
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it!
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ when your comment has nothing to do with the subject, no matter what your comment is about, you are trolling.
The Britannia is moored in Edinburgh, Scotland and is open to the publci for tours. It is well worth viewing.

So glad you enjoyed it!

This was special as it brings back memories of when my husband and I toured the yacht in 2012. Thanks for sharing.
I had the pleasure to do the Britannia on my trip to Edinburgh in 2013. I’ll never forget the experience.
Wonderful video Nicolas! Thank you!

Queen Elizabeth II had such great taste. Everything was neat, clean, coordinated, and in its place. Thanks for sharing this tour with us.
Wonderful tour ~~~ Thank you for sharing. You would be a great voice behind the tours Nicolas, your voice is so soothing & lovely.

Hi Nicolas, such a beautiful ship, thanks for inviting us along ⛴️, Caroline Ireland 🇮🇪
My husband and I toured the yacht 5 years ago when our cruise ship stopped in Edinburgh…it’s so beautiful in person!
Amazing! Thanks for the tour. Will you be touring Edinburgh Castle once the weather warms up...?

You were in your element, Nicolas. It was an enjoyable tour. Thank you for sharing something that was dear to you.

@@royalyachtbritannia We did, and it was absolutely worth the visit!
This was an amazing video. I would love to visit the Britannia.
Beautiful! Thank you for the tour of such a special yacht. It’s wonderful the Britannia can still be experienced today.
Fascinating having a little glimpse into this amazing piece of history
What a delightful video, Nicolas! I had forgotten about the Royal Yacht. Definitely worth a visit next time I go to Edinburgh.
We hope to see you on board when you are next in Edinburgh!
What an enjoyable video. Thanks Nicolas. So interesting to see this beautiful ship and your commentary.

Dear Nicholas ,
So nice to see you
always so classy and such an inspiration
Love , love your blogs
❤🇨🇦
Excellent! I saw The Crown episode where they wanted to port this beautiful sailing ship! Thanks for the tour!
As a tax payer I do not see why their luxury should be funded by the great British public; the Queen's sickening level of entitlement re this yacht was nauseating.Parasites, the lot of them.
Great tour
So beautiful. I crossed the Altantic on the Queen Mary in 1965 as a young girl and I like the idea that it's now in California for tourists to enjoy.
Thanks. Nicholas that was great!
I had always wondered what happened when the yacht was retired. I’m so pleased to see it preserved and available for tours and for private bookings. I was especially impressed with the engine room! 😊
What a fun time touring the Britannia with you. It would be great fun to host a small dinner party of friends and family.
Hello how are you doing?

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. Happy Spring Equinox. Take care Nicolas.💚✌️
One of my favorites vlogs. Keep up the good work, Nicolas. We love you.

Thank you so much for a tour I may never see-it is spectacular-and thank you for your calmness it helps me calm down-from New York!
Just Wonderful! Thank you Nicolas 😊
This was so interesting! I didn’t want it to end. 💖 Thank you Nicolas!! 🥰

Love this documentary relaxing and educational
The combination of you, the beautiful way you speak and the tour of this rare gem make such an enjoyable experience. Thank you so much!♥️
I would love to see it. I really like how it's furnished.
Seeing it seems to bring forth more emotion since she's gone to be with the Lord. Thanks for sharing, Nicholas.
Awesome to see such history. Definitely very nice but much more down to earth decor than I would expect. Thank you for giving us this look into history!
The Queen and Prince Philip wanted something simple and comfortable.
Thank you for sharing this tour. It was so interesting. I would love to see it in person one day.
Hi how are you doing?
It's unfortunate it was decommissioned in '97 but the refurbishments and upkeep 💰💰💰.
So fascinating and I couldn’t help seeing the corgi dog plush toys 🥰
Hello 👋how are you doing?
What a fun presentation! Love your outfit, especially the long coat. Very stylish!
That was a wonderful tour .🌞
Hi

We plan to visit next year so this was a great video to watch and so beautifully narrated in your elegant style.

Out of interest, what is the song called that you play in this video? I love it!
I really enjoyed this little tour, thank you Nicolas.
What a treat to see such a grand ship. I’m
Amazed that it’s rented out for private functions. I wonder if the ship will ever go to sea again?
Well thank you sir for taking us on an adventure that we most likely would never see. 💕
Thank you, great fun!
Fascinating! I always enjoy your videos. I specially loved this one
Thanks so much I really enjoyed the tour .God bless you.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💯🙏🏼
