Hi everyone, hope you enjoy the vlog! Here’s a breakdown of costs for anyone asking: The cruise was £442.50 per person based on 2 sharing a balcony cabin. I didn’t opt for the drinks package, you can take a bottle of alcohol on board with you and the bars are reasonably priced in my opinion to pay as you go. I booked it through SeaScanner and used a discount code they had at the time. Train to Southampton from London was £23 return, you can get advance singles from £6. Coach + Keukenhof ticket 36 euro + approx 20 euro Uber each way to the coach departure point from the cruise terminal. You can also book this as an excursion with P&O. Evening canal boat tour 19 Euro. Hope that helps! 😀
This is the one we are going on in May 2025 but visits different places, Vigo, Lisbon, Porto, Cherbourg for our 25th Wedding Anniversary, all inc. So glad you put this up Mr. C.
Hi Mr C yet again another FANTASTIC vlog you are definitely the new Jane McDonald all we need now is a song at the end seriously though I really hope one of the top tv channels finally see how brilliant you are at all holiday vlogs and give you your own tv show or a guest spot on another programme to do the holiday section as you are so good looking forward to your next vlog 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hello Mr.C. What a fabulous holiday Vlog. I have enjoyed the tour of the Ship. Beautiful sight seeing, places and things. Wonderfull to see the Beautiful display of Tulips and the flowers. Hope the birthday Boy had a fabulous party. Cheers 🍻. As always, you look fabulous. Me and my better half went to the Nederland many years ago on a business trip. I have my Nephew and a few relatives lived in Rotterdam and Amsterdam . Loved it. Hope you had a wonderful time on your mini Vacation.
Mr C, thanks for your Ventura report. I’ll sail on her in Sep to Amsterdam so it must be the same itinerary as yours. I cruised on Fred Olsen’s Borealis when you were on Ventura to Rotterdam and Amsterdam. I missed Keukenhof this year because I toured to a clog workshop. I went to this tulip park last year on Saga’s old river ship. Maybe I’ll revisit the park next year on TUI’s river cruise I’ve booked. As for the evening canal cruise in Amsterdam, it wasn’t dark yet for us to appreciate the lights on the canal side. But we saw the Amsterdam sunset instead. I’ve booked an evening walking tour in town from Ventura. June of London
Hi Mr. Carrington. I started binging your channel at about Christmas time and I am about halfway through through (I have gone backwards then decided to start at the beginning). I had just watched your trip to Amsterdam in 2019 when you posted this one. I haven't been to Amsterdam but it reminds me of Copenhagen. I absolutely loved seeing Copenhagen by boat when I was there. Thanks for the little tour today ❤
What a wonderful trip - the flowers in the Keukenhof gardens are stunning - and I loved the diving ducks! Such beautiful floral displays, and I remember that the perfume in the glasshouses was just amazing. It was good to have time in Amsterdam as well, and the mini cruise made it extra special. Thank you for taking us along to enjoy it all.
Wow that was lovely, and the bluebells were gorgeous, I have some that come up every year in my front garden, the tulips and floweres were stunning, I bet that was a lovely relaxing time, thanks for sharing.
Apparently people take loads of plastic (or other materials) ducks and hide them around the ship for others to find, I believe quite the collectors items for some.
We just booked the cruise - thank you for all the info x We have been on Ventura before so know it is "classic" rather more modern so no surprises there!
What a fab vlog ❤️ How stunning the flowers 🌷🌷🌷were nature is so colourful !!! The towels and your birthday signage how cute... 😂 Hope, you had a fabulous birthday and thank you for sharing your trip it looked amazing. 😊
I went on the Ventura around Spain and Portugal in August last year and it was lovely. The places were amazing (especially Portugal) and the ship felt like the perfect size (not too big like Iona felt). I've always wanted to try the Amsterdam cruise as it is shorter and now that I'm familiar with Ventura. Well done for finding Metropolis!!😅Literally no one knows about it and you can only access it from the very far back set of lifts, it always has a lovely night view and the staff are so friendly. I hope you managed to see some shows at the theatre? Did you find where they distill their gin? Also, I should say your suit and shoes look really nice!! I think I might start thrifting more 😊
How beautiful are the flowers there? Love the colours. Happy to see you had a great birthday Mr.C. I'm convinced some kind of witchcraft happens in our wardrobes because my clothes also shrink when they've been in there😂 I am more than happy to watch travel vlogs from absolutely anywhere, I love seeing different places. Thanks for taking us with you again.
Thank you Mr C for this particular cruise vlog a lovely reminder for me of my very 1st cruise with a girlfriend on PO Ventura last spring to Amsterdam celebrating her big birthday. We took the evening canal cruise too and went to the Van Gogh Museum next day. Had a really fab time! Tulip Gardens next time maybe....⛴️🌷💐
What a lovely relaxing break. Wonderful to see actual tulips near Amsterdam and your towel art in the cabin was fantastic... so cool that Dennis did that for you. I'd really quite like to go to the Shetland Isles with you from the comfort of my sofa.. it might be a bit chilly but the scenery should be amazing :)
Thank you for taking us on another fabulous cruise. I just love all the places that you go, because I will never be able to see it in person. I enjoy listening to your English accent. Thanks again for your videos. From a fan in Colorado USA!
Ive done a Carribbean cruise which I loved but occassionally I could feel the enormous ship moving! I'd love to do the one you were on, but everyone I speak to says going out of Southampton is very choppy..... was it when you went? Im not a great traveller......I'm the only person I know that can walk down the aisle on a train banging into people both sides as if its tilting!!! 🤭🤣🤣. Love your vlogs Iwan.....hope you had a great birthday 😘 xx
Another great vlog Mr C, it's many years since I visited Amsterdam and I'm sure a lot has changed but it was beautiful even then!! Love going on your travels with you, great outfits as usual and a very smart suit xxx
Yes! I have been to Amsterdam several times. On one of my visits I stayed in a lovely little hotel to attend a week-long Floristy Course in Aalsmeer at the ‘Boerma Institute’. We visited the Flower Market whilst in session trading. Great fun and great memories!🙋♀️🇺🇸🥰‼️
Afternoon Mr Carrington, lovely vlog on your travels on your cruise ship, hope you and your partner had an amazing time. Room is good, i would bring my own wine to put in the fridge in my room, also box of chocolates, i dont drink loads so i dont really need drinks package. Tulip 🌷 and flowers looks beautiful in that park , thanks for sharing your trip 🍹🌷
Hi Mr Carrington. I'd love to see you on a cruise. Ventura looks pretty good. You can ask the steward to change the beds to a queen. I looked the towel animals and the cake was brilliant. You can't have a drinks package on cruises less than 5 days. I like the short cruises, Amsterdam looks lovely in the sunshine. It rained constantly when I was there. The prices for the cruise are pretty good.
Hi Mr. C. What a treat to see this on our rainy and chilly Sunday here in Philadelphia!! Thank you so much and I was able to pick out about 15 tulip varieties for my imaginary garden. I miss it so!! Glad you had such grand weather! Stay well. Lawrie
Gor future reference, cabin stewards can change bed configuration if you experience this again.. (you choose bed set up just after booking with P&O) Love Amsterdam.. 😊
Thank you for sharing Such a shame that Floriade ( every 10yr ) garden Expo is no longer from the Netherlands it was amazing but the Kukenhof is so beautiful ( No one does bulbs & flowers like the Dutch )
What a lovely short cruise, being a lot older than you I have on so many cruises on all different ships several have been with P&O it’s such a great way to see places have excellent food and so much to do on board. Your video of the gardens was certainly a sight to see absolutely stunning. Thank you so much for showing us your experience, take care love xXx
My favourite flowers are Tulips and i havent seen one in a long time as i live in Australia. A fabulous four day trip and you looked very smart in your suit and tie.
Hello Mr Carrington i have cruised. on Ventura several times maiden season in 2008 we fly over from Sydney lovely ship a bit dated now she was state of the art then.
We were on Ventura for 35 days earlier this year to USA & Caribean. New Orleans was fabulous. Have also been to Amsterdam and visited Anne Frank's House which was amazing and did a canal trip as well, but it wS not tulip season which must be amazing. Great blog and quick turnaround time, well done.
I went to Amsterdam one Christmas and got to do a lovely riverboat cruise whilst watching a spectacular watercolour light show. Visited Ann Frank's house on Christmas eve and on Christmas day went to the Van Gogh museum. Wouldn't mind going back but in the summertime so it's warmer.
Oh my gosh, what a wonderful video! Your photography is outstanding. I was in Amsterdam back in the ancient time of 1971 as a student backpacker. Your video brought back so many wonderful memories. Thank you so much.
You can ask the steward to rearrange the beds if it’s not configured how you want. Great that you can get down to Southampton so easily and reasonably for a cruise.
Super vlog Mr C. Belated happy birthday. Great to see another option for travelling to Amsterdam to see 🌷. We may very well do this next year. We enjoyed two nights in Amsterdam in January. We loved the river ⛵ cruise xxx
What a lovely surprise to wake up to. Although I have travelled much I have never cruised and have always wanted to. Again very expensive here in Australia, the deals are robbery. But your Vlog was amazing as was Amsterdam, another place I wish to go. And the canal cruise looked grate. Cheers Mr. C and again Happy Birthday.
If you have time to spend in Southampton, please take a look at the Tudor House Museum and the SeaCity Museum. there is also an art gallery at the civic center with an Anthony Gormley statue - for those who don't know he is famous for the Angel of the North statue.
Oh well done on the quick turnaround. Great video, but why are the members of your party soooo shy? Anyway, get that roof garden ready, we bought some bulbs at one of the flower markets the other year and they’ve birthed some glorious tulips here in East Lothian. I hope happy birthdays were had, but don’t buy into cruising rubber ducks; that way lies madness. As for a future trip, I’d love to see you try an Ambassador sortie taking in Antwerp.
Thank ypu for taking us to Keukenhoff, we were there last year beginning of April. We did an excursion from Rotterdam. We were on P&O Iona, which is my favourite ship. Not been on Ventura yet.
For more modern decor need arvia, Iona, Sky Princess, sun Princess, or any Virgin voyages ship. You should totally do a Virgin cruise Mr C! It’s totally unlike all other cruises. They sail from portmsouth rather than Southampton.
That all looked really lovely! a nice cheeky break away. Not been to Amsterdam ourselves, and only ever been on one cruise for our 25th WA on the med. We didn't get on well with the cruise company (I won't name them) and we were cruisng for 13 days, which was a bit long really for us. I seriously didn't like being at sea in the dark at night, I felt the darkness smothered me! However I do fancy a river cruise at some point, where you can get off and explore cities and towns onced they have docked. Have you ever thought or a river cruise? This was a really interesting Vlog and I think a 4 day break I could cope with and P&O seem nice and easy going. Only ever heard good things about P&O. Thanks for taking us along with you x
Oh Iwan!! I so enjoyed watching this! I spent a lot of time in Amsterdam many years ago. I would go to Holland one weekend a month, to see my then boyfriend, who was working in Weesp, near Amsterdam. I fell off many a bar stool in Amsterdam in my youth, what with the dodgy gin (always pay extra and ask for Gordons!!!) and yes, a few herbal ciggarettes..........lol Great memories xxx
Love your travel videos, i’ve been to some of the places you have shown us as a result of your informative and honest reviews. Also love that you show us places to go on a budget. Fantastic ❤️
Did Enjoy it Iwan. Love Amsterdam, Been a Few Times. Never Been To The Tulip Gardens, I Would love It, Have a Lovely Bank Holiday Monday. Off On Holiday On Tuesday For 2 Weeks. Xx 😘😊
Thank you for taking us with you on your birthday cruise the gardens were beautiful and you got the perfect weather to enjoy it all the suit looked very smart hope you didn't have to undo the button during your dinner ! 😊❤
Always enjoy your cruises I'm looking for one for myself nothing to expensive maybe for September can you suggest any I quite fancy this one Happy belated Birthday 🥂🎉🤗🫶🏴
Hi everyone, hope you enjoy the vlog! Here’s a breakdown of costs for anyone asking:
The cruise was £442.50 per person based on 2 sharing a balcony cabin. I didn’t opt for the drinks package, you can take a bottle of alcohol on board with you and the bars are reasonably priced in my opinion to pay as you go. I booked it through SeaScanner and used a discount code they had at the time.
Train to Southampton from London was £23 return, you can get advance singles from £6.
Coach + Keukenhof ticket 36 euro + approx 20 euro Uber each way to the coach departure point from the cruise terminal. You can also book this as an excursion with P&O.
Evening canal boat tour 19 Euro.
Hope that helps! 😀
Thanks 🙂
Happy belated birthday. Absolutely love the Netherlands any time of the year 😊
P.S. Luke Catleugh has removed an original Victorian door from his new house! Have a word when you get back!🤨😄
All sounds very reasonable, thank u
This is the one we are going on in May 2025 but visits different places, Vigo, Lisbon, Porto, Cherbourg for our 25th Wedding Anniversary, all inc. So glad you put this up Mr. C.

I am so envious. I have always wanted to go to Amsterdam and the bulb fields.😊 the suit is terrific
Here I go again on my Sunday travels with you thanks so much you brighten my day!
Love Amsterdam..great place to chill... those towel animals were brilliant.. especially the mouse ☘️

My (1st) cruise in September is to Amsterdam. I will be using a mobility scooter, so hoping it won’t be too difficult to do some sightseeing
The flowers were absolutely beautiful!

Thank you for sharing your Birthday cruise, definitely on our list of places to travel

Yesss my home.....im 1 hour from Amsterdam by car...yess love Amsterdam..love the video...thank you...😘😇💛😘🐈⬛🐈⬛
Thanks for sharing your video ❣️💥🎈 Happy Birthday! 🎂

Hope you had a lovely birthday Mr C! I was wondering what is your opinion of P&O vs MSC, am really interested to know 😊
My family are from the Netherlands. It's a beautiful country.
Oh Iwan!! I so enjoyed watching this! I spent a lot of time in Amsterdam many years ago. I would go to Holland one weekend a month, to see my then boyfriend, who was working in Weesp, near Amsterdam. I fell off many a bar stool in Amsterdam in my youth, what with the dodgy gin (always pay extra and ask for Gordons!!!) and yes, a few herbal ciggarettes..........lol Great memories xxx
Love your travel videos, i’ve been to some of the places you have shown us as a result of your informative and honest reviews. Also love that you show us places to go on a budget. Fantastic ❤️
Loved this and I’m very tempted 😁
Thank you for sharing, loved the gardens and flowers. Also the synchronized swimming ducks 😂. Looks like you had a wonderful and relaxing time Mr C.
Did Enjoy it Iwan. Love Amsterdam, Been a Few Times. Never Been To The Tulip Gardens, I Would love It, Have a Lovely Bank Holiday Monday. Off On Holiday On Tuesday For 2 Weeks. Xx 😘😊
