The water around Greece is a blue that I had never seen before. It's so blue that it's like food coloring was added. That adds to the beauty of everything. Those narrow walkways with the shops were amazing. I could have wandered them for hours. Love reminiscing thru your videos.
Yay we are so glad you’re enjoying the videos!! It’s so true that water is just amazing, no photos do it justice! And those walkways were so lovely and when they weren’t packed with people they were romantic! 🥰
We are absolutely LOVING this series!!! The water was amazing! Y'all vacation so much like my hubby, and I do. Your vlogs make us feel like we're right there with ya!! Hubby says every time we watch, "Ya know, they are my favorite?" LOL Yep, mine too!!!! ❤
I just found you all a couple weeks ago, and you're one of my fave channels now!! We are going on a med cruise in September, so these videos are amazing. Thank you!!! ❤
Mykonos is on my bucket list, maybe not even on a cruise. Ryan, I can tell just by looking Carnival has the best pizza. You're right, it's the crust. It's not quite a Napolitano, but it works hard to get close. I definitely eat more than my share on a Carnival ship..love it! Thanks again for the great video you two!
If we would do Greece again we may do a land trip so we can spend more time and see more of the smaller islands and experience the night life! I have to say looking at Ryan’s pizza that carnival does look better! 🍕
My boyfriend and I are always looking forward to your videos! We found your channel before we went on our first cruise back in March & booked another on the celebration for 2025 after seeing the series you guys posted! Also, we are just north of Toronto so love seeing Ryan repping the Blue Jays lol!! Loving the content you guys, keep doing what your doing :)
We love seeing fellow Canadians in the comments!! 🇨🇦 Hope you’re having a great Canada Day weekend! We are so glad you’re enjoying the vlogs!! Hope you have an amazing time when you go back on celebration in 2025!! 🥂
It looks absolutely beautiful. Happy for you guys seeing this, I'm living vicariously through you. HIT LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE. IT COSTS NOTHING. ALOT OF WORK GOES INTO THESE VIDEOS FOR YOU TO SEE.
Another awesome video. Love, Love, Love you guys. Can't wait to hopefully see you on Utopia OTS in September. BTW - - - wife and I are doing a 10-night Southern Caribbean cruise on Explorer in November, so I really appreciate the ship content as well. Be safe.
Great video and we will definitely add these ports to our bucket list! That water there looks incredible! BTW, that beer that Ryan was drinking is Amstel, a Dutch beer, but quite popular in Greece.
Oh wow thank you SO much for the super thanks!! ♥️♥️♥️ So glad we could help you add some more things to your bucket list! I feel like bucket lists are so motivating to have! 🙏🏼 Really? It was a Dutch beer 🍺 who knew haha! We learn something new everyday! Thanks again for being an amazing member of our community and for supporting the channel! We love you!! 🥰
@@ryanandkala you are more than welcome, thank you for bringing us great content always! So the Amstel beer is Dutch, however it is also brewed in 3 breweries in Greece for the past 50 years.
On Odyssey we had to tender and we did a beach club for the day! It was amazing but pricey 😊. If you go back you should try a beach club . We got lucky and had zero wind and perfect weather in the 80’s . The greek salads are amazing there so fresh! Looks like you guys had a great time
Hey guys… Great video… As previously advised, we sail on Explorer in November from Barcelona to Miami… 😊 We just got off Anthem of the Seas on Friday following 7-night run from Southampton UK to Norway and Belgium - great trip and we are now back in NJ. Question for you, we noticed that RCL on Anthem did not charge auto gratuities on any drinks when sailing out of the UK, stating that it is included in the price of the drink. Interestingly, the prices when we have sailed out of Bayonne NJ on Anthem are identical; however auto gratuities are added on Caribbean and Canada sailings… Have you found this on Explorer in European waters? We are C&A diamond as well and love the voucher system. We always give a dollar or two tip on all drinks, and noticed that we were ‘the exception’ doing this sailing out of the UK. Cheers, James
I’m pretty sure the 18% gratuity was included on our European cruise, and have definitely been on all the cruises we have done in the Caribbean. I wonder if there’s something specific about the UK that makes them not charge that? We will need to do some digging!
After an excursion similar to yours, I would highly recommend just exploring the port area. I was very disappointed with the cruise excursion that I booked for this stop.
I agree! I don’t think we would do an excursion in Mykonos again. We would do our own thing now that we have an idea of where things are! We ended up wandering around on our own after right in the port area and it was so cute and I got an adorable little ring from a gift shop too! 💙🤍
Greece is just beautiful! Sooo happy you guys got to go. Ok about the pizzas 🍕- I think Royal has the worst pizza. MSC is pretty good but hands down Princess has the best pizzas at sea.
That seems to be the word on the street!! I think that’s the 5th comment we saw today about princess…. I have Ryan checking princess deals for 2026 haha! We need to check out this pizza asap 🍕
@@ryanandkala Ahhh bummer. Well I'll wave like a fool if I see you! Hope you enjoy your trip. Love your videos! EDIT: Out of curiosity, can I ask what you two do for your day jobs? You should really do a Q&A!
We did one on the sea day coming up, and we also have them on our instagram on our highlight reel if you want to check them out!! We address our jobs there :)
I’m sailing Princess for the first time on the 9/8/2924 sailing to Alaska on Majestic Princess. Not sure about the dates of your upcoming cruises, but maybe you can squeeze that one in! 😉 I get the feeling you guys would really like Princess’ Plus and Premier packages. For roughly what the drinks package costs on Carnival (and less than it typically costs on Royal), Princess covers a drink package AND gratuities AND WiFi and some other perks.
@andrewbrown574 sadly we won’t be able to squeeze that one in as we will be on utopia that week. But we are definitely looking into princess for 2026!!
It's all Greek to me...and I love it! Awesome presentation! Great tour for us via your vlog! Great editing, all as usual! When I view your vlogs I am happy I follow my A B Cs...Always Be Cruisin' 😎😎😎 BTW...I finally checked out your Instagram and what a wonderful treat! Awesome stuff! Keep on rockin it!
@@ryanandkala Shoes are 1 thing I have not tried from Shein yet but now with your info I may do it! Thank You. I'm really enjoying your Greece videos. I'm considering booking NCL to Greece & Italy in August 2025 🤞
@Trisha1165 you won’t regret going!! As for SHEIN it can take a minute to figure out sizing but check the reviews and see what the feedback is, plus your first return is free so if it doesn’t fit you can return and reorder 😊
Ugh the wind that day had my hair all over the place and that dress was cute but honestly it was way too big on the chest and I kept worrying that I was giving a free show lol! 😂 I’ll never wear it again haha! I’ll also be wearing buns on windy days haha

Happy to take you along!! It’s a definite bucket list trip! Hope you get there very soon!! 💙🤍
Thanks!
Omg thank you so much!! This is our first ever super thanks!! ☺️🥰🥂
So glad you’re enjoying the vlogs! 🫶🏼
Great video! Kala, you always look gorgeous. Almost 10k subs🤩
You’re so sweet! 🥰
Isn’t that crazy!!!! We can’t believe that! Thanks so much for being one of our loyal subs! 🫶🏼
Awesome video as always. Loved the tour you both did. I do not have a tour booked but I got a lot of great tips. Love your outfits.
You’re probably A-OK not to have an excursion booked, it seems easy to do without one.
Thanks so much! Basically everything I own is from SHEIN
It looks absolutely beautiful. Happy for you guys seeing this, I'm living vicariously through you. HIT LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE. IT COSTS NOTHING. ALOT OF WORK GOES INTO THESE VIDEOS FOR YOU TO SEE.
Thanks so much!! You’re the best!! 🫶🏼
Okay you guys need to go back and stay for a few days I need more! Thank you for sharing ❤
Ok you twisted our arm hahaha! 😂
The second beer is an Amstel likely from the Athens brewery, it's just a Greek label.
Ahhh good to know!! Thanks!! 😊
Another awesome video. Love, Love, Love you guys. Can't wait to hopefully see you on Utopia OTS in September. BTW - - - wife and I are doing a 10-night Southern Caribbean cruise on Explorer in November, so I really appreciate the ship content as well. Be safe.

We wish we could have stayed for the nightlife. We hear Mykonos knows how to party! 🎉
Fun! Great vlog. I can't wait to go back to Greece.
Thank you 🫶🏼
We can’t wait for you to go back either!!! Greece is just so magical!! 🤍💙
Hideaway Beach on Royal's CocoCay island has great pizza and slightly better than Sorrentos. Great cruise vlogs!
Woah!!! Ok we will need to test this out when we are there in September!!!
Thanks for the heads up!! 🍕
Royal pizza wins for me! Fun video guys!!⚓️
🍕
Thanks so much for watching ♥️
You guys need to try the pizza on Princess Cruises, it’s the best! It even got an award!
We keep hearing that princess has the best pizza! We definitely need to check out princess and their pizza 🍕

Next trip!!! 🤤
My wife and I are taking our honeymoon on Utopia Sept 9-13. If we see you two I'll give you a shout!
Love the videos!
Omg that’s amazing!!! We will be getting off on the 9th but hopefully you see us in the port!! ♥️

Royals pizza ! With the Italian season / parm and pepper flakes
The parm and pepper flakes aren’t even a question! They’re a must 🤣
I agree royals pizza is best… Ryan needs some convincing!
@@ryanandkala ah, but you are comparing your gluten free to the regular pizza. Carnival hands down on the real deal.
You guys need to try a Virgin Voyages cruise too!
Oh I agree!! We may try and sneak one in 2026! They’re a bit pricey but they look amazinggggggg ♥️

I absolutely love you guys! Where did you sail out of for this destination?!
♥️ right back at ya!! For this one we sailed out of Ravenna Italy 🇮🇹
Kala - what hiking sandals do you wear?
I got them on SHEIN! They were so comfortable! I’d definitely recommend them!
@@ryanandkala Shoes are 1 thing I have not tried from Shein yet but now with your info I may do it! Thank You. I'm really enjoying your Greece videos. I'm considering booking NCL to Greece & Italy in August 2025 🤞

Ryan, do you remember the name of the place you got the gyro?
It was called Pitogyros Greek grill definitely check it out! It was on google maps!
Thanks. We're going late Sept. I definitely plan on checking it out.
@joeldonmeyer3744 you won’t regret it!
Good❤
Where did you get the glutenfree pizza? Is that included?
Going next september
Cafe promenade!! Yep it’s included!! Just ask the staff to make you a GF, takes about 15 mins ish to make! 🍕
What excursions was this one?
The excursion we did is listed in the description with a link to the exact one we did 😊
Less Ryan, more Kala.
🤣
I like the tour a lot..you do a great job showing everything....but Kala playing with her hair and top are distracting...
Ugh the wind that day had my hair all over the place and that dress was cute but honestly it was way too big on the chest and I kept worrying that I was giving a free show lol! 😂
I’ll never wear it again haha! I’ll also be wearing buns on windy days haha
