Hi Tom and Dom I am really enjoying this series on board the Ambassader Ambiance, I am using it to try and convince my husband to go on the Tilbury to Singapore sail in January, the itinerary is amazing ( which he agrees is ) he isn’t convinced that there would be enough ( on such a small ship ) to keep us from getting bored on the many sea days and also the crossing from Portugal to the Caribbean, ( rough sea ) have you any positive notes to help me convince him it would be the trip of a lifetime 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I have just booked my first cruise up and I will be solo. I don’t think I will get the drink package as I hope I can use my onboard credit I got on the booking for the drinks I do want. Please tell me if I am wrong. I have just read I can’t even take my own bottle to fill up with water, are there refilling stations for water around the ship? The coffee machines I see, do you really have to walk to that area to just get a coffee for your room, isn’t there any in the hall outside your room? I cannot believe you don’t know Jimmy cricket as I am mid 40s and I remember him. Come here there is more! Good videos!
That’s fantastic! Onboard credit can be used for drinks so that’s a good option. There is tea and coffee making facilities in your cabin so if you don’t want to walk to the buffet that’s fine. We don’t see any reason why you can’t take a water bottle on the ship.
Brilliant contents y'all have here 🍸 I am about to begin my journey as an onboard performer - I am an operatic tenor soloist and recitalist. Looking forward to more amazing videos from y'all.
At his peak, the fans would get into a frenzy about him. YT Video - 'Jimmy Cricket: This Is Your Life'. His humor fell on the safe side of family fun at its time. Don't fret, maybe Ambassador can convince Brendan O'Carroll to bring 'Mrs. Brown's Boys' to the sea to do a couple of mini sessions (for a slightly younger audience). 😃😄😄 Since his series was on BBC One, surely it must be considered family-friendly. 😉
Jimmy Cricket is from that time when a comedian would have their own catch phrase and individual gimmicks (like the wellies) dated as that may seem by today's standards I'm sure a lot of people remember him, he was very popular. I think he found fame on a talent show initially. Personally not my cuppa tea either (and I'm 58) but he's safe audience material I guess. P.S. I'm sure you both really want a pair of those wellies now 😅
Can you get drinks from bar menu in the restaurant or just wine? Also, if you have a drink before dinner, can you brink that in to restaurant with you?
Hi Tom & Don, do the majority of people dress up on formal nights? We have sailed on cruises recently where 50% of people don't appear to bother, which is a shame.
@TomandDomTravel. Thanks for your response, and much appreciated. We sailed on MSC Virtuosa in June 23 and a very young ship where the majority were very casual. Later in the year, we went on P&O Ventura and a little more formal as an older clientele. We've just got off Iona last week, and apart from the official formal night, it was very casual. Even the formal nights a lot were dressed casually, and it seems to be the way cruising is going. Many thanks Jane
Thanks for your question! No you didn’t miss it! The guest entertainer left us asking an important question as to whether we were too young for ambassador 😀
Hi thanks for your comment. While we were on no flash photography was allowed. we film short 5-10 second clips and never publish them with the original audio.
@@TomandDomTravel Thank you We are going on a Ambassador cruise for the first time soon and Ambassador told me no Photography was allowed at all in the shows. As a big part of my Cruise is taking still Photography at the shows (no flash) it was putting me off the cruise. My normal cruse company says no video and no flash photography. Thank you for your help.
Are you too young for Ambassador? Absolutely not. Other than the very late night limited dining options and poor Dom having to assemble his own late night 'Doggie Bag" for your sea dog 'Jasper' (hiding in your cabin), iAmbassador seems to be scoring quite well. Tom is getting his soup needs/rations met and everyone seems happy. Ambassador for the win or is there a need to give Virgin a go? Do you fit the Virgin customer profile?
We agree Ambassador has something for everyone! We throughly enjoyed our time onboard! We would love to give Virgin a go, all down to the timings! 😀 We think we would really enjoy the Virgin experience!

I remain really impressed with what Ambassador seem to be putting out there. The entertainment seems so varied and interesting!
Thanks for watching. Entertainment is done through Peel who do some of Costa’s Entertainment 😀

@@TomandDomTravel thanks for that, I have under a year to wait until I board but I have been getting info allready lol
No upsell at the spa is excellent.
It was great not to have that at the end of your treatment

Best of luck! Which cruise line will you be with?
@@TomandDomTravel Thanks 🙏 I will be assigned to Adora Magic City 🎶
Tom is GORGEOUS!!!
Thanks

Watched a few TH-cam videos of Jimmy. He did the same jokes on Ambience as he did back then 🤣
I had no idea that Jimmy Cricket is still working! It would be really odd to watch him live after 40 years!
I guess Jimmy Cricket keeps working because he's clean, and you can stick him in front of any audience and he won't do any offensive comedy.
Very true. Nothing to risky in his set
We’re strangely curious about Jimmy (Jiminy 😂) Cricket!
Would you know who he was?
@@TomandDomTravel not a clue!
Absolutely! He used to be on Saturday night telly all the time in the 80s. Often wondered if he was still around

Yes those wellies would look great on a cruise 🤣🤣
Hi can you please give a list of the spa treatments thank you
Yes no problem. We will include it in our video about our spa visit.
Was that cheese on the eggs Benedict instead of hollandaise?
We don’t think so
Can you get drinks from bar menu in the restaurant or just wine? Also, if you have a drink before dinner, can you brink that in to restaurant with you?
Yes you can to both. Dom ordered a beer from the bar menu. 🍷🍺
Any bingo?
Yes most evenings in the Purple Turtle
Hi Tom & Don, do the majority of people dress up on formal nights? We have sailed on cruises recently where 50% of people don't appear to bother, which is a shame.
On Ambassador we found nearly all passengers were in formal wear. Which ship were you on?

What was the question the guest entertainer asked? Did I miss that bit?
Thanks for your question! No you didn’t miss it! The guest entertainer left us asking an important question as to whether we were too young for ambassador 😀
how did you video shows when I Believe the shows are copy write and no photos of any kind are allowed.

That’s interesting I sure you will have a great time. I forgot to mention that we only use our mobile phones.
