    Great vlog, looks like you had a fantastic couple of weeks.
    I completely agree about the toboggans in Funchal, such a great experience.
    The Glass House was a regular spot for you, I thought it was really nice on Azura.

    As for the carnivals , you should book to go for a weekend when they are on , one of the best experiences I ve ever had ! I ve been to the lanzarote one twice , its usually in February, 6 weeks before Easter , its a full weekend party ! You guys would love it !!

      Awww thank you! Oh fab, yes, definitely worth going there and grab a snack in the cafe with the big tank (its the second restaurant you will get to as you walk through the venue).

    Hey Guys great video. P&O are missing out on a trick. If they replaced Madeira with Casablanca on one of the weeks it would be a totally different experience, with the same number of sea days.

    • @CruiseMonkeys

    • @CruiseMonkeys
      @CruiseMonkeys  3 місяці тому +1

      Thank you - yea have to make the most of it, no point dwelling on the bad news about Sun! Some US and travellers from Europe do, Innocents Abroad will be joining us on our next cruise and we’ve some joining us on our Group Cruise later in the year. You’ll need to find an agent that can book you, you then fly in to London and from there it’s easy to get to Southampton by coach or train (1 hour give or take), stay for the night before if the safest options as plenty of hotels in Southampton. Also Southampton is very easy to navigate and has Uber.

    We did a similar itinerary on Sky Princess from Southampton. The Bay of Biscay was very rough! What time of year did you go? When we went in mid to late October the weather was cool and a bit rainy.

    • @CruiseMonkeys
      @CruiseMonkeys  2 місяці тому

      This cruise was in mid February. We've don't the Bay of Biscay may times through different times of the year, it can be flat calm on day going down then chucking you all about when you return a few days later, seems un predictable, but it always nice to be reminded you are at sea (maybe just not after a heavy night!)

      Yes, it would be, either 7 nights or 14. Each week only has 2 sea days and some lovely ports for winter sun. The Norwegian fjords are also fab for first timers - we love it so much we keep going back!
