How to Get From Endless Summer Dockside to Universal Studios - The Solo Traveller Guide
In this solo travel guide, I show you how easy it is to get from Endless Summer Dockside to Universal Studios. I catch the free bus to the park and enjoy a variety of attractions, including riding E.T., experiencing the Trollercoaster, and meeting Shrek and Donkey. I also enjoy a "Far, Far A Waffle" and a refreshing free drink from the freestyle machine. This video is perfect for anyone considering visiting a theme park on their own.

When I was giving the backstory for Eternal Bloodlines, I forgot that Marya didn't just kill Saskia's father but also her brother. I was camera shy!
@@NerdImports You are so awesome 👌 Nick! Thank you 😊
@@ThePersistentTraveller Thanks for including us in your video! Megan and I enjoyed it :)
@@NerdImports I'm so thrilled that you both enjoyed it! We love spending time with you both!
we have booked the villa after watching your video. Can you tell me if the hot tub is checked every day and also is it actually a hot tub with chlorine or salt water please
Aw amazing Michael! I hope you'll have an awesome time, as we did! The hot tub was monitored very well (I think it was checked every-other day, if not everyday) and it was a chlorine hot tub. It was clean and at a good temperature when we arrived too, which is always a bonus 🙂 - Kris - TPT
@@ThePersistentTravellerThank you very much
@@michaelbrown-zx4tl You are very welcome!
So its a "People Mover" but themed?
@@celebrityrog YES! That's a great 👍 way of explaining it! 😊
Will be there in 2 wks l can't wait.🥰
@@ekeniadzwairo Hope you have an awesome time! 😊❤️
Ok so I need to be able to afford business class I’d be in my element
I went to Oman on the way back from Zanzibar for 3 nights
Curious to why you travel to Orlando so frequent ? X
Seems so far to travel for a weekend ? X
Long way to go for 2/3 nights ?
😂 Yes, it was, but worth it! 😊
I’ve just come back from Japan regular long haul traveller drove from Darlington to Heathrow 4.5 hours , stayed over flown at 9am the next morning was at the airport for 5am direct flight 13 hour 50 mins to Tokyo Then 2 hour way then 3 hour flight to the south of the island And then 1 hour drive to resort stayed at 4 different places over Japan then the whole journey back it was exhausting flight was super expensive Just economy and the food was awful with Japan airlines
Wow! 😮
if i am flying business class i would certain want to be the last passenger to board. Let everyone else wait for you. Why the need to rush to board?
I like to be the first onboard to make full use of the business class seats ☺Kris
Thank you for this useful video, we are heading to this Hotel in 8 days so it was a good to see it through your camera.
Aw fabulous!I am so glad you found my video helpful! I hope you have an amazing holiday! I'm sure you will! ☺😎 Thanks again for taking the time to watch and comment Kris - TPT xx
Thank u for sharing
Do you get a pre departure drink?
Hi there! Yes, you get the use of the Skyteam lounge at Heathrow Terminal 4 when you book business class seats. They had complimentary food and drinks there. You also get a drink onboard before take off - Kris - TPT
@@ThePersistentTraveller Thank you!! I’m going business class in February 2025 😊
@@asfs400 Aw brilliant! I hope you have the best experience and enjoy your trip! Kris

I really don’t like that seat, hope they’ve changed it to the new one noe
@RandomLifeProductions Yes, hopefully they'll change it 🤞 It's not proving popular at all! 😔
I can’t thank you enough for this. I’m staying in that hotel in December before flying to New Zealand. I’m pretty nervous to do it all on my own and this is incredibly helpful. You show each step beautifully ❤
@becky0710 Aww, this is a lovely comment! Thank YOU Becky! I am so glad you found it helpful! 😊 I hope you have an awesome time! Kris ❤️ TPT
Shame no mention of the food, pool etc. Seems you were let down by poor admin only??
@stphnmrsify The food was good 👍 and the pool, although a little cold was good too 👌 Kris
Thanks for the update 😊
Oh no not the curse!! I am glad you were able to get new flights booked. Its unneeded stress but its nice to hear they were good to sort it out xx
Apparently its chaos in Heathrow and Gatwick 😢 hope you get to fly.
@text40 Yes, I agree! Thank you sweetie! I hope so too! 🙏 xx
The, bravo. splendid ~ :)
Doesn't look any better than premier inn
🤔I'd say it was a tad better, but yeah I agree with you, theres not a huge different 🙂 Kris - TPT

I grew up in Porthcawl & lived on the Beach front ,my father had a fish & chip shop on the caravan camp back in the 70's , great times & great place to grow up
Ah, you are very lucky to have been broguht up in such a great place! I probably bought chips off your Dad at some point in the 70's lol! Kris - TPT

hey do you know if you can swim in the pools at nighttime?
@lilbadatrap Hi there! 👋 No, I'm afraid the pool closes at nighttime. I'm not sure what time though, but I think it was around 6.30pm 🤔 Kris - TPT
@@ThePersistentTraveller ahh damn thats a lil saddening aha im there on the 11th for 10 days next month and night time swimming pools are so relaxing with out the sun beaming down on you aha :") thanks for answering my question!!

how much does it cost for round trip tickets. it is cheaper or more expensive than emirates
Hi there - We paid £3,556.44 each person for return buisness class tickets from London Heathrow to Sydney, Australia. Yes, it was a lot cheaper than flying with Emirates. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! Kris - TPT
@@ThePersistentTraveller Thank you for your quick reply.
@@ThePersistentTravelleroh that was very expensive I found tickets cheaper lol
@@bxyteqrs-ze6pr that's fantastic! 👍

@johnjrambo5827 Awesome! So glad 😊 you enjoyed it! Thank you for sharing ❤️
Getting off a ship always feels so strange to me. I dont know why. Its crazy seeing all those suitcases together. xx
It wasn't too bad the last time we disembarked, as we knew we had another cruise booked, but this time it felt sad to have to leave. Yep! Crazy to see all the suitcases, and they were just some of them! xx
Some of the best chutneys I've ever tasted.
@@anthonyharris1235 I totally agree 👍 👌 ❤️
I felt Vigo was the first stop we were actually able to see any of! The weather being better helped also. I did like Vigo.
@@chrisamies2141 Yes, I agree 😊 Me too ✋️
Most of the booths at the terminal accept Norwegian cash, but we prefer cards. It's so much easier. We are bound by law to accept cash in Norway, but as technology has evolved, and there are so many alternatives to payment, we hardly ever use it anymore. I work for the CityTrain Sightseing in Haugesund, and the prices we operate with are NOK 320 for adults, 150 for children (age 3-15), and 750 for a family (2+2). This would be around £24 for adults, £11-12 for children, and £56-57 for a family. Cash is a bit more, as adults then cost NOK350, or about £26. We, the CityTrain, accept Norwegian Krone, or any form of debit- or creditcard payment, including Apple- and GooglePay. The Norwegian prices are fixed, so there is no hidden fees from us. What is displayed on the Zettle terminal we use, is what you pay us. If there is any fee other than that, then it is your bank that adds them :) One of the reasons many don't accept foreign currency is because it's so expensive to exchange them for a company, espcially a smaller company. After covid, the only company that has a contract for accepting foreign currency is Loomis, and then out of France. That contract was EXTREMELY expensive, and for us to just brake even, the prices would be just too high. So I apologize for that, but that's just how it is these days. Anyway, Welcome to Norway, hope you had a wonderful time here, and hope you will be back some day to try out the train as well :)
We had the cabin literally opposite yours and was entertained by your pineapples 😂🤣😂🤣😂. Didn’t see any coming or goings?
Lol! Hi 👋 Our friends thought it was hilarious 😂 to secretly stick upside-down pineapples on our door each evening! 🫣🤣🤣🤣 I was mortified! 🫣🫣🫣
@@ThePersistentTraveller there was plenty the last day 😂. Wondered what was going on 😂. They made finding our cabin easier x
@katybean1234 🤣🤣🤣 I'm glad we made you giggle and helped you find your room! I'm also glad that we didn't end up with any nighttime 'visitors'! 🍍😆🤭xx
Hi, I watched your embarkation video and this one. Great to see your videos so will follow along. Quick questions, I will be going on first ever cruise on Arvia soon. Any advice on dealing with WIFI and phones. I keep hearing stories of high phone bills when getting home....I know you can turn your phone to Fight mode but with 2 teenagers I really want to protect against high bills. Any tips would be great. Also how bad is Bay of Biscay? Did the ship rock a lot in those conditions?
Hi there 👋 Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I just made sure that my mobile data was off as soon as I boarded. Then I only used Internet based calls (messenger or WhatsApp). I always buy the Internet package but it can be costly per device, so we bought 1 package and used the hot spot for other devices (one at a time). All ports will have free Internet so most people just go onshore to connect and catch up. And yes, the Bay of Biscay is well known for bad seas, but it honestly wasn't THAT bad, even in December when I went! I quite enjoyed the slight rocking motion to help me sleep! ☺️ I really hope you have a fantastic cruise! We've got more cruise videos to follow! 🛳😊 Happy travels! Kris - TPT
@@ThePersistentTraveller Thanks so much for getting back to me. Ok that makes sense...Will ensure all phone data is off and will probably get the WiFi package but like you said it's so expensive for such a short amount of time. Ok hopefully bay of biscay will behave when we go.... Have subscribed so looking forward to future vids.... Thank you
@@NoMoreNoobie Thank you very much ❤️ for subscribing! Really appreciate it! 😊
We were on the same ship, room E505 just down the corridor. Do you have anymore footage of the ship or destinations?
Hi there! 👋 We have more footage of all the ports we stopped at which we are posting on here soon 😊 Kris - TPT
How lucky that you got the time and the table you wanted thats so cool. That did look very windy! xx
Embarking onto the ship looked super easy. Your room looked great! We love that you get a kettle on a P&O Ship xx
Yes, it was 😊 xx

shame about the weather. Looked pretty though. New Subbie. We vlog in Florida, so love watching any travel vlogs.

We visited Nordfjordeid a few years ago and absolutely loved it. The port is so beautiful. When we visited the ship there was a man carving wood for one of the heads of the ship. We found a little shopping centre near there too. xx
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! 🌟 Nordfjordeid truly is a beautiful place, isn't it? The port is one of my favorite spots too. How amazing that you got to see the wood carving in action - it must have been fascinating to watch! The little shopping center is such a charming find as well. I'm glad you enjoyed your visit. Kris xx

Such a cool place to eat. Try the balcony for a great veiw of the rest of the park!🎉
Thank you 😊 Will try sitting on the balcony next time! Cheers 🤗
Thank you.
Can you tell me where the smoking areas are on Brittania please.
Hi Ann Deck 7 - midship and also aft both on starboard side Kris - TPT 🙂
Hi I watch your unboxing and haven’t seen you in a couple months. I knew I’d find you here lol. How long is your trip and was it a prize?
Hi Linda! 😊 The trip in this video was filmed last month. We were lucky enough to have gone to Orlando for a month. We are currently on a Norwegian Fjords cruise with P & O. None of these trips were prizes unfortunately. As we've been travelling as much as possible over the past few months I haven't had the chance to enter many competitions so I haven't had a lot of winnings to unbox. I love comping and I miss it, but love to travel too. I'm really hoping to be back on Luckily Charmed later this year 🤞 I hope you are doing well Linda and I send you lots of luck 💗 Kris xxx
