I wasn't sure how much I would like a travel vlog with not seeing the person talking or doing activities, but your voice is really engaging and I've watched tons of videos but I learned things that I didn't know before, about a ship I knew about. Good job. Continue. I'll keep watching.😄
Hey Matt! Kyle (and Natalie) from Utopia Inaugural here. Wonderful ship tour - you’ve really done it justice. It’s been great hanging out over the last few nights! One more night to go :) Cheers
@@sidneyshaw9205 We wanted to go during the summer and that date was the cheapest one. We just booked them yesterday and the cruise was almost sold out
Going at the end of August!! We are so excited! This video was awesome! My family was talking the other day about how we don't think three nights will be long enough to see everything but we can certainly narrow down our "musts"!
Thank you for the very thorough coverage of this ship. We really have enjoyed the fact that you have slowed down the speed of your delivery. Some of your videos you’re so excited that you speak so fast it’s hard to keep up with you. This one was at a much better pace and we really enjoyed the entire Video.
Going on this ship in 48 days!! Thanks so much for this. Looking forward to the water show but have to reserve it asap on the ship because it’s already full on the app 😢
Thanks for detailed ship tour, Matt! Really enjoyed watching this while having my lunch this afternoon :) Since I can’t be on the ship right now watching this made me feel like I was there!
Sailing in April 2025 with family. Thanks for the video. Took notes and very excited to try as much as I can but will definitely see the Aqua and Royal theater shows!
Thanks for the full tour and making it easy to navigate the video. After I got off icon in May, I booked Utopia three times with different groups of people. Twice in Sep and once in Oct. Cant wait. The destination elevators are awesome! I will possibly try Mason Jar and Giovannis since we’ve done some of the other specialties. Railway is too pricey but looks like a very cool immersive experience.
I like that the suites on Utopia are all located on the suite deck where things are probably a little quieter. I was in an Owner's Suite on Allure on deck 11 and sometimes kids would run down the hall and ring my door bell as they pass my room.
This is why you try to park your room near the end of hall. Furthest away from the elevators. It may seem easy to put it near the elevators. But I rather NOT be woken up at 0200 by a loud group coming back from the casino
I haven't been on the Utopia but my daughter-in-law is book for September 16th. I love love love love love love the solarium food on Symphony Of The Sea it was the best because it was seasoned but Hook Seafood I can't stand it Lobster everything was horrible. I don't like short day cruises I don't see me on the Utopia at my age packing unpacking overpacking and I hate traveling by air if I can go to NYC or Bayonne NJ to board a ship I have traveled on Princess Cruise Line 1998 flying from NYC to LA and LA to Tahiti on a 12-day Tahiti Hawaii Cruise which was my first cruise so I'm spoiled on a long cruise awesome video Matt💯
Tip #1: Don't do it. 😆 JK. That would be helpful. My buddy brought his 4yr old & bought an extra room for his sister in law/sitter. She got a free trip & they had built in child care. Worked out great. 👍🏽
I absolutely love my children & never traveled without them. I absolutely love babies….but cruising with babies is not a vacation, nor very enjoyable. Personally I’d wait until they can enjoy the pool , mini golf, beaches, etc.
Hi Matt. I love your videos …but you have mentioned in several videos about the lack of access for JR Suite guests. I have now booked 2 jr suites, one on Utopia and the other on Oasis. I have full access to “suite” amenities. If guests book a jr suite sky category and higher, they will have the same access. Your information is actually a deterrent from booking jr suites. But keep the information going
Love the tour. We're boarding October 11 and I want to do it ALL! The kids will love the slides and water play. I'm trying to figure out how to fit it all in within just one weekend. Definitely want to catch all the shows. Do you think my 6 year olds would enjoy them all? (apart from comedy of course)
The baby bay looks nice and big. Other ships it's been really small which makes it hard to use. On Oasis we only got to use it once because it was always so busy.
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing! We’ll be there March 2025. Looking forward to it! Will there be a cruise compass uploaded to your site over the next few days?
Thank you for your amazing videos! One thing I just cannot understand: why is Johnny Rockets considered specialty when Guy’s Burgers is included on Carnival?! Guy’s is probably the best burger you can get. Make it make sense! Also glad to see Sprinkles has sprinkles now 😂
I appreciate you making this video!!! My boyfriend & I are going on this cruise this fall.!!!! I have a question about all the restaurants and buffets you mentioned…. are the buffets included with our cruise? what about the food by the pool? I am just confused on what’s included or what’s extra! i’m sure i’ll find out at some point but i would like to know ahead of time
Sailing in January 2025! Any insight as to why Utopia is only sailing short cruises as of now? Thanks for this wonderful video, I can't wait to get on board!
Seeing so many people in the pool like a can of sardines and so many people everywhere makes me lose the desire to get on the boat. I imagine queues and more queues for anything you want to do. I think I would disembark more stressed than before getting on.
When you say a cover charge to dine at the specialty dinner like Hooked, does that mean the price you pay on the app is just a fee to dine there and then there’s a charge for the food once you dine there?
I’m going on the 3/3-3/7 sailing!! I’m wicked excited for the Izumi hibachi dinner for my bday, the sea lion experience in the Bahamas and the comedy shows and the shows in general on board :) OH AND THE ESCAPE ROOM!!!
Looking at room tours, the only interior room I'm seeing is the Spacious Interior. I really would like to see the smaller 1-2 person rooms. I'll be in a 1v
As much as I want to cruise Utopia. Sailing short cruises only, is not worth it to me for such a big ship. There is so much to do. I'm going to hold out for when she gets to sail 7 night itineraries. 😁
We are scheduled for our 5th wedding anniversary (5 day 4 night) on Sept 16th. Quick question… was confused about how the elevators are different. So is the only difference that you push the button for what deck you want on the OUTSIDE of the elevator instead of the inside? What am I missing? I really (especially after this video) feel like 5 days and 4 nights is not going to be nearly enough… definitely a cruise ship where you are actually torn between getting off the boat at your excursion site versus just staying on the boat and enjoying what it has to offer.
Please continue to put your videos in chapters. Sometimes I just want to go back and watch a certain section. This helps tremendously!
Facts
@@pw-sz6ds YOO HE DID IT THERE IN CHAPTERS
@@Real_12bu my request was to CONTINUE doing his videos with chapters because most his videos are not.
@@pw-sz6ds aw man
💯
RCB puts out the BEST ship tour videos. They are slow and measured, immersing you in the ship. ❤

Going in Dec, I’m so excited for this. This year has been rough so the vacation is sorely needed
I am going in December too! lol Yes! You are right! been a tough year!
Going in December too.😂
Hey Matt! Kyle (and Natalie) from Utopia Inaugural here. Wonderful ship tour - you’ve really done it justice. It’s been great hanging out over the last few nights! One more night to go :) Cheers
See you at the mason jar!
Sailing on Utopia 6/22/25! Thank you Matt for making this video!
was that the only date available? Or just when you decided to go.
@@sidneyshaw9205 We wanted to go during the summer and that date was the cheapest one. We just booked them yesterday and the cruise was almost sold out
june 23. Im going too !!!!! :)
The Royal Railway looks amazing❤ watching this has made me think that Utopia will definitely be the next ship we take, great viddo
What a perfect time on a Friday to watch my favorite cruise channel and new ship 🎉❤ enjoying this one Matt 👍🏿🎊

Hi Matt! Sailing on Utopia in a few months!!🎉
Thank you for the helpful info!! (Big cruise and RCCL fans here!!)
Like the untz untz untz type of music hahaha this ship looks cool, i was expecting more food venues
Excellent tour as usual! My wife and I are looking forward to booking on Utopia soon!
30:04 I’m right there with you, Matt👍🏼
I make sure to book that restaurant/experience every cruise I’m on.
Great job Matt! My Wonder of the seas pool deck circular is gone but I’m gonna get over it. 😊
Great job on the video - very thorough and enjoyed it very much! 👍
Sailing in April 2025 with family. Thanks for the video. Took notes and very excited to try as much as I can but will definitely see the Aqua and Royal theater shows!
150 is the best! Team 150 Central Park, the food is amazing and the decor is usually over the top beautiful
Wow ship looks amazing. Sister ship of icon of the seas
Great video 🚢🛳️ !!!!
I’m going on Utopia beginning of march next year! So excited

I absolutely enjoyed this.
I just came back from icon of the seas and it was amazing

Completely agree about Chops vs. 150 Central Park ... 150 is our favorite!
I loooove Sorrentos!!
I know that I’m going to love 💕 this Thanks 😊
Pricey AF though. Enjoy!
Going on Utopia in December. So excited!
I am going in December too!! lol
Nice job on info
Great video Matt! Thanks 😊
Very helpful video-thank you!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Please do a video on tips when cruising with a baby.
Tip #1: Don't do it. 😆 JK. That would be helpful. My buddy brought his 4yr old & bought an extra room for his sister in law/sitter. She got a free trip & they had built in child care. Worked out great. 👍🏽

Our first cruise with our daughter she was just over 6mos old. My wife and I and our daughter have loved them all!
@@williamw9050 any tips?
Yes!!! Tips here. If you have an un-potty trained kid, dont go. Even with swim diapers.@raheemabent6361
Awesome tour. Thanks for all the great information. We are going on the 4 day in November. Can’t to try the Mason Jar and catch a game at Playmakers.

October. And Definitely looking forward to mason jar and a 80s themed aqua show.
There is now a Sky Jr Suite that has all the perks of a Grand suite and higher!
Love the pizza❤
Going on Utopia in MARCH 🎉🎉🎉
Sailing Back to Back on Utopia 9/2/2024 & 9/6/2024!! We can't wait!! Only 5 more days!!
Is the stream room and Sauna extra? I was on independence of the seas last year, and it was free to use. Your videos are the most informative! Thanks
Sailing 1/6/25. Thanks for the video
Going out Jan 13th, looking forward to Central Park and trying 1 drink from every bar.

Me 2 that’s my birthday 🎉
@@Jj_86 that’s so cool. What would be the chances of both of us going and having the same Birthday.lol I hope you enjoy yourself and have fun!
@@bmii6667 oh wow happy birthday! Maybe I will run into you there 🤣
@@Jj_86 Happy Birthday as well and maybe so. 😂
The baby bay looks nice and big. Other ships it's been really small which makes it hard to use. On Oasis we only got to use it once because it was always so busy.
Boarding on 1/03/2025. I'm thankful for this video.
I know ICON is the new best thing but man is good to see the Solarium return. IMO that’s the biggest mistake with ICON and Star having no Solarium.
Going 10/21. Looking forward to drinks, drinks and Izumi,
thank you so much
February 3rd here we come🎉
Going on Utopia Feb 3rd!
Like update I love it
Great video Matt. I will be going on this cruise ship October 21. I have a question for you do Royal Caribbean Utopia of the seas have a spa
Yes
Whoa, whoa. Go Bills! Go Bills!.Hey Hey Hey Hey, Let's Go Buffalo!
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing! We’ll be there March 2025. Looking forward to it! Will there be a cruise compass uploaded to your site over the next few days?
Going on Utopia October 2025!
Can't wait to try the Utopia Railway Restaurant!!
Thank you for your amazing videos! One thing I just cannot understand: why is Johnny Rockets considered specialty when Guy’s Burgers is included on Carnival?! Guy’s is probably the best burger you can get. Make it make sense!
Also glad to see Sprinkles has sprinkles now 😂
Would love to see something of this caliber on the west coast. Don’t need to go to Mexico but I think they have to so the gambling can happen.
They need to visit a foreign port due to the Passenger Vessel Services Act.
Why you gotta do the Buffalo Bills dirty like that man 🤣🤣
The art on deck 5 is a sea shell made of diamonds.
I am going there
It was fun
I appreciate you making this video!!! My boyfriend & I are going on this cruise this fall.!!!!

Hello please I love to see the cabin inside the room and bathroom thanks Felicia P
My favorite bar Lime & Coconut Bar and drink
it help a ton
September 6❤🎉
Sailing in January 2025! Any insight as to why Utopia is only sailing short cruises as of now? Thanks for this wonderful video, I can't wait to get on board!
I agree with your daughter, I LOVE Sorrientos.
Thank you for the video, does the drink package work for the wipeout bar shaved ice

Last time I was in an overcrowded IKEA store I had to think about royal Caribbean cruises
When are the show tickets available to reserve? I keep checking every day - sailing 7/29 or do you have to wait until on board and do in app?
I’m going on the 3/3-3/7 sailing!! I’m wicked excited for the Izumi hibachi dinner for my bday, the sea lion experience in the Bahamas and the comedy shows and the shows in general on board :) OH AND THE ESCAPE ROOM!!!

Yes love the pizza
Going on December 2nd! Who else is going on the same trip??
As much as I want to cruise Utopia. Sailing short cruises only, is not worth it to me for such a big ship. There is so much to do. I'm going to hold out for when she gets to sail 7 night itineraries. 😁
Totally agree
This is my idea of a Nightmare............though interesting to watch
Is the shaved ice included in the drink package?
I was really hoping Trevor & Chelsea was doing the tour.
We are scheduled for our 5th wedding anniversary (5 day 4 night) on Sept 16th.
Quick question… was confused about how the elevators are different. So is the only difference that you push the button for what deck you want on the OUTSIDE of the elevator instead of the inside? What am I missing?
I really (especially after this video) feel like 5 days and 4 nights is not going to be nearly enough… definitely a cruise ship where you are actually torn between getting off the boat at your excursion site versus just staying on the boat and enjoying what it has to offer.
