Great vlog. Guys as usual…when we went to Martinique the queues for the ferry were so long for lots of people…so we walked to the dockside and there were local guys offering boat tours…this was Xmas Eve….no other option for us ..think it was £50pp..what a blast…they took us too areas to swim…natural coves with turquoise waters…music blasting…rum punches..another boat pulled alongside and came aboard with a Xmas bottle of local rum and we all drank to celebrate…then .we raced another speedboat across the ocean…was worth every Penny ..but I was very squiffy after….best xmas eve I will remember ❤️
Thank you! Oh fantastic, yeah the rum seems to flow freely over there and they are so friendly! Don’t think they allow you to end the excursions sober 🤣
Another great vlog! I really enjoy how you two share your day with us. Swim up bars are my favorite. I've not encountered one on a ship yet. That would be so cool! And the sunset from the pool, wow, just wow!
Shame you couldn’t take that lovely dog home, the tour around the island looked really fun. After seeing you both eat breakfast, I can see why you are both dieting. 😊
He was a lovely Pup! Hahahaha, yes, the Christmas podge and cruises have caught up with us, so were trying to be health (and even off the drink) until our next cruise... thankfully that's a week tomorrow! hahaha :)
Hey cruise monkeys, love the video, we went to Martinique too, more modern island bigger roads, but lovely beaches. Great to come back on board to have fish and chips. Keep cruising but!!
Fantastic video guys and I always like your videos and you are so funny and always enjoy watching you. I have never been on a cruise how many have you done now.
Glad you found it interesting. Food was very good. Can’t remember numbers, not full but very near, can’t remember what was said in the talk, want to say around 4800, the cruise after us was full as we met someone who wanted to stay on (they’d been on since Christmas, buying the next cruise towards the end of each cruise at a reduced price).
Awww thank you! Cruises are full board, so all your food is included in the buffets and main dining rooms. Tea, coffee and juices included from self serve buffet too. What you pay for in most cases is drinks at bars or speciality dining - for these you can pay as you go or buy a package. Lots of choices of cruise lines that all offer different things, big ships, little ships, formal or not formal etc 😀
I can't remember if I've already asked this but how late are the pools/swim up bar open? Also what time was it roughly when you were in it in the video?
From memory, pools were open 8am to 8pm. The swim up bar was open till around 11pm. We'd often go there late afternoon and never had issues finding a seat, this would have been between 6:00-7:00pm as we would go there before heading back to the room to change. Hope that helps :)
We booked Martinique tour via m.facebook.com/groups/caribbeanislandtours/ - it was €80 per person. Owena runs the group and organises it all! We also booked St Kitts and St Marten through her, all fab tours. You pay a small deposit and the rest is cash to the guide. Great local tours! At Lucia and Barbados we did book through p&o.
Wish you were onboard with us! Yes, other than the formal night, most nights the disco was closed down by 1am. Think many were enjoying themselves in the sun during the day or up and off the ship for excursions. A good mix of ages with most in their 50s and 60s.

Thanks so much! 😊 Glad you enjoyed it!
This was so fun to watch! I love it when you are the last men standing and it’s only 1 AM 😂
Glad you enjoyed! Yes, think the sun and rum in the day means most passengers were done quite early 🤣

Another great vlog! I really enjoy how you two share your day with us. Swim up bars are my favorite. I've not encountered one on a ship yet. That would be so cool! And the sunset from the pool, wow, just wow!

If you guys want a party ship, you’ve got to come aboard Virgin Voyages Valiant Lady! 🎉
It’s on our to do list as it does look fun!
Another great vlog, that Benjamin really raised the roof ;). I hope they were able to sort out your lost stickers on the cards for you
Thank you! Yes, he sure did 🤣 It was only the number, think they knew us well enough by then so we never needed to get new ones 🥳
Such Fun!
Fun times 🥳

Excellent video. Could I have a link to who you booked the excursion with? Thanks

@@CruiseMonkeys 2nd Sept and I can't wait 🙌 love watching u guys x
Interesting vlog as usual and the food looked good! How busy was the ship? It doesn’t look that full? X

Love you guys. I’ve never been on a cruise but want to book up now. Do you have to buy a food package or is it all included?
Awww thank you! Cruises are full board, so all your food is included in the buffets and main dining rooms. Tea, coffee and juices included from self serve buffet too.

That tour of the island looked amazing! Do you book direct and how much would that tour cost? ❤️

@@CruiseMonkeys Thank you for the response. We went in February and have booked for next year so will definitely be booking that tour. Thank you ❤️
Luv the rum, I can't believe the ship went to sleep so early was it like that every night? Was the age group on board more like us than you?
Wish you were onboard with us! Yes, other than the formal night, most nights the disco was closed down by 1am. Think many were enjoying themselves in the sun during the day or up and off the ship for excursions. A good mix of ages with most in their 50s and 60s.
@@CruiseMonkeys We will be joining you very soon now
