Excellent video. As an experienced cruiser I think you did a great job showcasing the ship and activities. I already shared your video with first time cruisers for our upcoming Utopia cruise
Thank you so much for watching and supporting our channel. It's appreciated and even happier to know this comment is coming from an experienced cruiser! Have a great cruise on the Utopia!
Fantastic video detailing a lot about Utopia of the Seas. We really enjoyed watching and learned important information about the ship and the cruise. Thanks
Thank you so much 😊 I hope you get to go on your cruise soon. You guys will have a blast. Miss your videos, I go often to check for a new one just in case 😂 Take care and hugs to your beautiful family! 💕💕🥰🥰💕💕
Wow - this video was incredibly helpful and well-made👌🏾Looks like y'all had a blast!! This is vacation #goals for my son and I 😄 A cruise seems ideal in terms of price, activities and sight-seeing -- all centralized and convenient.
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to write a comment. We had lots of fun. The reason we love cruises is they are perfect to discover an island or country where you’d probably never go otherwise. And then you fall in love with the place and can decide to go back for a longer vacation. And you’re right, at the same time you have activities, great food etc. And some ships are just out of this world. Hope you and your son have your cruise vacation goal soon! Take care 😊🥰
So happy you found our video useful. Lots of people were saying it was more party than family on the Utopia. But we had so much fun, and there were tons of kids. Hope you have a great cruise!
Thank you for the great video! I am sailing on Utopia in November 2025 and was a little nervous about the advertising of it being nothing but a party ship. Glad to see you and your kids had fun and it wasn't all about partying. I am excited about going and I have quite a long way to go before sailing! :D
Hi! So happy you enjoyed our content, and thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I am sure you will have an amazing time. I was a little worried too at first but it was absolutely worth it. The party pool is where I saw lots of party fun happening but it was great, it felt like everything was well balanced. Enjoy your cruise next year! 😊😊
Very nice review. I have been on Utopia three times already and learned some things. Have 6 more planned. Love it. Water show gets cancelled frequently due to weather (they are diving from high heights on a moving ship) or if the lift mechanism for the floor is not working perfectly.
Wow 3 times already! That's awesome, I should've asked you for more tips before uploading the video. You must know the ship inside and out. Yes, the Aqua Show was canceled because of high winds. We didn't make it on time when they rescheduled it. But that's ok, it makes us look forward to the next time we cruise on the Utopia. Thanks for watching the video!
Excellent information! Corine & I loved Coco Cay, best food and you can take it back on the ship! The funnel cakes, cheese stick, hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken sandwich are great! Our 50th anniversary cruise will be on MSC Magnifica, October 18-21, 2024! Joseph & Corine Wilson On Deck With CB!
Thank you so much for your comment. So happy you enjoyed the video! Happy upcoming 50th anniversary to you and Corine! We went on the MSC Magnifica last May and loved it. Enjoy 😊
Great video! Just a nerdy comment of clarification Those are columns not beams blocking the view at the rink. Beams run horizontal and columns are vertical.
Oh lol thanks! French speaker here 😂 My (English-speaking) husband usually watches and tells me when to fix those mistakes but he was at work when I was finishing the video.
Hi thanks for watching! The lunch was very good! Kids loved the huge chicken tenders and I had a tasty burger. There were other restaurants to choose from offering more adult-type food 😂 , but with the kids I kept to this one only. We will be making a video about our experience at Baha Bay real soon. Best last minute decision for that excursion. Totally recommend!
I was too…but in the end I was happy we did since when we went to Coco Cay there was a storm and they closed all the waterslides for a few hours. They reopened them in time for us to do the tallest slide only. We got reimbursed half our money by Royal Caribbean which was great of them. So in the end, we spent more time enjoying the waterslides at Baha Mar.
Hi! Oh yes it was sold out! There were many many people. But I guess because the ship is so huge there’s enough space for everyone. Also we filmed some on our first day and we got there early before the crowds.
Hi great video! Does check in to choose your arrival time to the cruise open at midnight the day of your cruise? Also, when do reservations open for the shows? I read it was the first of the month before your cruise but if your cruise is on the 6th, will it open 5 days before or the month before about 35 days beforehand? Thank you!
Hi and thank you for watching! Here is what RC’s website says: “You can check in on the app beginning 45 days in advance and up to the morning of your sailing. App check-in provides several benefits over web check-in, such as less time spent in the terminal and more time on vacation. In the app, you will scan your passport, upload your security photo and answer the required health questions to receive your mobile boarding pass. The terminal agent simply verifies your travel documents and scans your mobile boarding pass. Remember, you still need to bring your passport and other travel documents with you to the terminal check-in.” For your second question, it would open on the month previous, on the 1st of the month. So yes, 35-36 days prior, more or less. Hope this helps! Enjoy your cruise!
Please explain how a water slide in the Bahamas is considered the 2nd tallest in North America? Bahamians don’t even have US citizenship and the Bahamas are not apart of North America.
I understand, but here is the answer: “There are 23 countries in North America, as well as more than two dozen non-sovereign territories, including Bermuda, Aruba, the Cayman Islands, Greenland, and Puerto Rico. The primary language in North America is English, followed by Spanish and French. North America is divided into three general areas: Northern America, the Caribbean, and (somewhat confusingly) Central America.” Also, see: www.royalcaribbean.com/blog/first-look-unveiling-the-tallest-waterslide-in-north-america-daredevils-peak-on-perfect-day-at-cococay/
Heres more info: What Countries Are in North America? You may hear that North America has anywhere between 3 and 23 countries. So how many North American countries are there, really? When you combine them all (plus the Central American countries), you get a grand total of 23! However, some lists may split them into Northern American countries and Caribbean countries, which brings the total to 16 North American countries and 7 Central American countries. The 16 North American countries (excluding Central America) are: Canada Mexico The United States of America Antigua and Barbuda The Bahamas Barbados Cuba Dominica Dominican Republic Grenada Haiti Jamaica Saint Kitts and Nevis Saint Lucia Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Trinidad and Tobago
I’m taking my kids June 2025 but I have to be honest the Thrill Park looks like there’s more to be desired. RC charging people 120+ per person just for water slides only?! Look like a rip off in every video I’ve seen.

There aren’t many videos on the utopia showcasing activities for the family, so thank you for this great content
So happy you found our video useful. Lots of people were saying it was more party than family on the Utopia. But we had so much fun, and there were tons of kids. Hope you have a great cruise!

Thanks. We sail Utopia in November and since we're doing CoCo Cay one day I'm on the fence about another waterpark, but looks like a blast.

Hello! Nice video. Thank you for sharing. Was this sailing sold out? Not many people around. TY

@@globetrottinggang that’s good to know! Does that mean you can select your arrival time slot as early as 45 days in advance?
Yes and make sure you do it at midnight 🕛 on that day. So before morning, when everyone will check in. That way you get the earliest time slots. 😊😊
Were there oxtails in Windjammer on Caribbean night?
Yes! There was! We couldn’t believe it.

Yes, we found it expensive also. And we got it at 35% off.
