A blessed good day Rich and Hellen Wowww so delicious dine In in Seabron Encore Cruise ship Different Delicasies, and Foods, I love it thank u so much for your wonderful guide options, and tips Sending love 😘 from solid fan Viewer from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir Marvin 😍👏👏👏🙏👏👏👏👏👏
An excellent video. You brought back so many memories of my 52-day cruise on the Seabourn Ovation. All the times I’ve sailed Seabourn all my food and service were extraordinary. Thank you for a great job.
Such a great video, thanks Rich & Helen 😊 We loved it so much we have booked Sojourn for next summer 😳 Sooo excited! Oh and we booked through Panache, they have been great so far, got us a fab deal too. Gave you a name check of course 😊
Just catching up on what I have missed after a week in Australia, what lovely menu items and I could definitely go for the cavier on demand and the scrumptious afternoon tea.
In a couple months, my wife and I will embark on our 9th Seabourn cruise. We've "dated around" a little, and keep coming back to Seabourn. We thought a Windstar last year on one of the old Seabourn ships might come close to the experience, but we were disappointed. I DO believe that the difference in quality is primarily because of the attitude of the crew. I don't know how they find these kids, but the difference between them and the crews of other lines just don't compare.....
There is an option in the Collonade to be served items from the buffet. Some people have an aversion to self-service. Not me, but if you do, they will get it for you.
Yes, absolutely, thank you for pointing that out. Breakfast and lunch can both be self service or ordered from the menu in the Colonnade. Thanks for watching 👍
Thanks for watching Luna. Seabourn are actually quite demographically spread with regard to guests and are definitely not a senior citizen focussed line :)
Look’s amazing! If I am not able to get into the Thomas Kelly restaurant more than once, would they allow mr to have the food from thr restaurant in my room ?
Thankyou for another superb and mouth watering dining review 😍 Utterly fantastic as ever, we now have to find something tasty to eat 😁 This really does show how ultra luxury cruising is that step apart - it is definitely something that we want to try one day (perhaps when the little ones have grown?!)
Very well done. I must admit I am a fussy eater (unlike my partner who is far more adventurous), being very much a meat and potato man (although I do like it well presented). But I think I liked most of what I saw so much I was salivating by the end. I’d certainly consider a voyage on the basis of the food I saw alone.
A cruise on something like Seabourn or its peers will be heaven for you though. You can literally ask for fillet steak and chips every night and you'll get it, no questions asked.
Generally it’s smart but not too formal on Seabourn. They do have formal evenings but on most evenings guests just dress as they would if they were going to a smart restaurant or cocktail bar. Thanks for watching 👍
We’ve had very limited offerings of caviar. Actually, nonexistent. My bride scored a spoonful on VV Scarlet Lady on our last trip. We sail Regent next, caviar is available?!? Thank you 🙏🏻
Caviar is available on Regent but unfortunately it is one of the veery few things you have to pay extra for. They did have a Sunday canapé breakfast though where you could have a serving of Xavier and mimosa with your breakfast in the main dining room and the buffet 👍
Looks very nice! I will say though that the dining aboard Regent ships is superior. For example, lobster tail, filet mignon, dover sole are all available nightly in Compass Rose. Prime7 aboard all of their ships elevates the caliber even more. I will give Seabourn the nod on the availability and presentation of caviar.
We tend to eat a bit later so didn’t mind that time but understand what you are saying. Maybe it’s so people can have afternoon upon return if they’ve been out exploring 🤷♀️ Thanks for watching 😊
Seabourn cooks meat dishes really really well. I’m normally a seafood person, but after tasting a bite of my husband’s steak one night I started ordering meat dishes too. I suppose this isn’t surprising given Seabourn’s mostly American/UK customer base.
@@visitwithus is there a place you can get a midnight snack thats 24/7? that thomas keller steak place that you need reservations for, if you wanna go there more than once you cannot right? say your a solo diner can you go there alone and dine and get a steak?
@@visitwithus if you eat too much GELATO can they ban you from the gelato bar? have you ever heard of anyone getting banned from there because they consumed too much? 🤭🤣
@@visitwithus Ha Ha! Respect to your diplomacy. We’ve just returned from our first cruise. 10 days on Seabourn sojourn. If silversea are as good then we have many wonderful options.
@@visitwithus Appreciated, Dear Friend 👍🏿 First tour(solo) is coming up in October. Peru one way then fly back to FLL. On🥈seas. I then found out about your similar company, Regent and Oceana thereafter.
Correct (at the time of our cruise). You got me thinking now with regard to Silversea and whether Atlantide was open every day or not... Also, The Restaurant may well be closed, but you can still enjoy full table service for breakfast and lunch in The Colonnade, which is obviously far more popular with guests otherwise I guess that they'd open The Restaurant if there was demand. :)
Seabourn has never appealed to me, just because of the design and decor of the Seabourn ships. But that smaller and more personable experience has been appealing to me a lot lately. Even with cruise lines like Princess, the buffet and cafe and high tea food in particular wasn’t exactly what I hoped or expected. But with a cruise line like this, I feel like it’d never be a miss no matter where the food is from. Canapés. I’m a gunna sound so suave using that term more often. That sushi bar, I would be there every day…for a SNACK!! I wonder if there is a surcharge for it or if it’s included. I don’t know if this is a problem for anyone else But the names of all the food items in the lower-left-thirds (which is an incredible extra privilege that I appreciate in these videos) are a little too low for me, because when I want to pause to get another look at the name of the dish, the UA-cam timeline and playback thing covers it and makes it hard to read. If they could be raised up, just a tad tad bit, I will be eclectic in my knowledge of all these different delicious looking foods. In other news, that deservedly titled high teatime looks legit. And that is saying something.
Indeed! The cruise we were on these were the only fries available sadly. We were told at the time that they were replacing the ‘old’ Seabourn fries but I think they had so many complaints they wisely went back to the other ones, which knock the spots off of these ones. Thanks for watching 👍
I love Seabourn however my one main criticism is the chat which they have been serving these past couple of years- it’s absolutely diabolical not surprising thou g I guess at $12.00 This really irks me as I do not drink spirits.
well as someone with no family no wife and kids and no one to leave my estate too, i think i have found what im gonna spend my money on, i thought about leaving it all to charity, but no charity deserves my hard earned money, especially since the events of oct 7th, looks like ill just have to go on a few ultra expensive cruises all alone before i end up 6 feet under. i thought about buying a ferrari but i think id rather go on a few nice cruises that buy a ferrari , i have no one to show off the car too anyway

This is so informative. You really do cover everything . Amazing video
Thank you 😊
It amazes me that you both stay so fit and trim. 😯. Well done you! 😉👍🏻
Haha! Thanks Rob. It does take an awful lot of effort when we're not cruising. :D
Dear Rich and Helen, This is the most enticing video I have ever seen. Can't wait to board our Seabourn Cruise later this year.

Ah, it took a little while but we got there in the end lol! Thanks Maurie. Hope it was worth the wait. :)
@@visitwithus and I’m furious because I couldn’t convince Jan to go Sushi and the food looks incredible 🤬

Hope you had an amazing time in Australia 👍
@@visitwithus Was excellent except for the 17 flights.
I without fail get hungry while watching your videos. Great content. Cheers 🥂
You should edit them! Constantly craving when I'm sat at my desk! :D
Yet another beautiful put together video - these are SO nice to watch. The venues on here really are gorgeous - even that buffet!
Thanks Fraser. Hope you are enjoying your epic year! :D
Very nice. Been waiting for this one. Superb!
Thanks Pete. We really appreciate your support. :D

I’ve always thought of Seabourn as my mother’s luxury cruise but you’ve made me reconsider. Food looks delicious.

Thanks for watching M&J. Yes, although it's not strictly adult only, I'd wait until you've got some time to yourself and go childless. :)
@@visitwithus maybe we need to find a baby sitter with 7 days' availability 😁
@@MarinaAndJoeGo Sounds like the perfect plan. 👍😆
Thank you for sharing.

Hi. How did you find the dress code? I prefer cruises / Hotels with smart dress. Thanks

I have a question if you can’t get into the Thomas Kelly restaurant due to them being booked , will they deliver the meal to your room?
Thomas Keller has been replaced by a new restaurant which we have yet to try so can’t answer your question yet I’m afraid 😔
Looks very nice! I will say though that the dining aboard Regent ships is superior. For example, lobster tail, filet mignon, dover sole are all available nightly in Compass Rose. Prime7 aboard all of their ships elevates the caliber even more. I will give Seabourn the nod on the availability and presentation of caviar.
We can’t wait to try the dining on Regent when we sail on the the Splendor later this month 😋
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
The scones are outstanding at afternoon tea, though 4-5pm time is too close to dinner. I’d be able to enjoy it more often had it been offered at 3pm.
We tend to eat a bit later so didn’t mind that time but understand what you are saying. Maybe it’s so people can have afternoon upon return if they’ve been out exploring 🤷♀️

@@visitwithus ive noticed most cruises are about US$3,000 a week give or take, is it worth it in your view?
@@visitwithus is there a place you can get a midnight snack thats 24/7?

I'm on the Ovation starting in one week for a Norway cruise.
Thanks for watching and we hope this has helped you plan your upcoming voyage! :D
Question. (One word answer requested)
Silersea or Seabourn?
Thanks in advance. Love your content! 🙏
Ye gads! A one word answer to THAT? You making me say this and I really don’t want to have to say it but….
both. 😂
@@visitwithus Ha Ha! Respect to your diplomacy. We’ve just returned from our first cruise. 10 days on Seabourn sojourn. If silversea are as good then we have many wonderful options.
Is this company all-inclusive such as Silverseas Cruises?
Yes, all speciality and main dining is included in your fare 👍
Thanks for watching 😊
@@visitwithus Appreciated, Dear Friend 👍🏿
First tour(solo) is coming up in October. Peru one way then fly back to FLL. On🥈seas. I then found out about your similar company, Regent and Oceana thereafter.
Excursions are not included on Seabourn.
Did I get this wrong? A ultra-luxury cruise line where they close the dining room for breakfast on port days and you have to eat at the buffet?
Correct (at the time of our cruise). You got me thinking now with regard to Silversea and whether Atlantide was open every day or not... Also, The Restaurant may well be closed, but you can still enjoy full table service for breakfast and lunch in The Colonnade, which is obviously far more popular with guests otherwise I guess that they'd open The Restaurant if there was demand. :)

Thanks for the heads up on the position of the menu names - we’ll take a look and see if we can improve this in the future.
Thanks for watching.
the food on Seabourn is the best. At 5:35 those aren't the Seabourn fries though....
Indeed! The cruise we were on these were the only fries available sadly. We were told at the time that they were replacing the ‘old’ Seabourn fries but I think they had so many complaints they wisely went back to the other ones, which knock the spots off of these ones.
Thanks for watching 👍
Been many complaints later that Seabourn standards have dropped since covid. Hope they improve.
Thanks for watching 😊
Skol ❤
Thanks for joining us Mark and Linzi 😊
Are Seabourn's fries as inspid as they look on the plate?
To be honest, they were not up to the usual Seabourn standard. 😕
Caviar was an excellent choice! Yamm
Not impressed with the rest, however in my case I would compensate with gelato, yuzu sorbet, and sweets...
Having a sweet tooth myself, I can heartily agree that cakes and desserts are a highlight here. Thanks for watching Helen (or Gary). :)
so let me get this right, there is UNLIMITED FREE ALCOHOL? so i could order 10 cocktails every day and they wont say anything right?
They won’t even raise an eyebrow. I’ve seen people drink champagne from breakfast to bedtime literally like water. 😂🥂
I enjoyed seaborne anytime
Thanks for watching David. :D
I love Seabourn however my one main criticism is the chat which they have been serving these past couple of years- it’s absolutely diabolical not surprising thou g I guess at $12.00
This really irks me as I do not drink spirits.
Thanks for watching Michele
Ahhhhhhhhhhh shucks
honestly presentation of the food with exception of the japanese restaurant looks disapointing for this high level cruising ?
The afternoon tea and the sushi restaurant were definitely the food highlights in our opinion 😋😍
Thanks for watching 👍
