Looking forward to them. I will be on Discovery Princess later this year to Alaska. Your video quality is really good. And good descriptions. Thanks again.
Thanks for that. BTW, It's a deluxe balcony because you have a love seat/sofa bed. Standard balcony doesn't have a love seat. Love the free laundry. Never heard that on other ships before. Free laundry is usually a perk only with a paid upgrade.
You're right, thanks back. The laundry was actually a surprise. I had to check several other decks to see if they all had it free. They did. Soap and fabric tissue too. One more reason to love this ship!
Thanks for this very informative video. I’ll be sailing on the Discovery in 2026 on a 14-day Australia/New Zealand cruise. It will be my first on Princess. Your video was very helpful and detailed and showed me what to expect. Thanks again.
You're welcome! We also have a video of tips for first time Princess cruisers. Give that a look! th-cam.com/video/4uYWtMkPCH4/w-d-xo.html And that cruise sounds awesome! Should be epic.
Thanks for your GREAT video. The best that I have ever seen. I’ve shared it with my Cruise Critic Group. If you have a video of the staterooms please post a link. Again THANK YOU VERY MUCH! !!!😀👍
Wow! Thank you! And thanks for sharing with the CC Board - I often go there for research. As for cabin videos, I've been contributing to a website called www.cruisedeckplans.com/. They use cabin video and photo contributions from various users. I only have access to my own stateroom during shooting. But that website might give you a better picture; check it out and let me know how it works for you.
I’m on the Discovery Princess for their April 3, Solar Eclipse Cruise & have a Cruise Critic Meet & Greet meeting with over 100 people signed up. One of the largest meetings I’ve ever organized. If you were going to be on our cruise I would definitely introduce you to everyone for all that you have done with this video. The best ship tour that I have ever seen with 50+ cruises. 35 with Princess & you have shown me places I wasn’t aware of. Many thinks again on behalf of myself & our members.
Thanks so much! We're going to be on Caribbean Princess at that time, so sorry. But hopefully we can meet at another time. Do you sail with Princess only?
This was the best ship tour video I have ever watched. BRAVO! I will be on Discovery in August, and I thank you for this video since I now know what to expect and where to find it!
Hi, and thank you for the kind words! I'm on a cruise now and go in and out of contact, so sorry for the late response. Anyway, I hope you have a great trip!
Good morning! I'm sailing on Discovery Princess Jan 27 to Mexico. I've seen, heard and read that Gigi's Pizzeria is fairly well empty most of the time now that Princess has decided to add a charge for meals there. Was that your observation?
Yes. In fact, the patrons are a small fraction of what they once were (we've sailed her before pre-change and back then you could hardly get a seat). Add to that, there's a pizza place poolside, Slice. Gigi's advertised themselves as the "best pizza at sea" but it's not enough for people to bypass Slice. I hope they go back to complentary if they see this move isn't working.
Great video! Is Churchill's smoking lounge still in service? I saw one ship layout where it had been turned into an arcade: not sure of the date on that floorplan though.
Yes it is. We did a short video about it last time we were there, which was several months after I shot this. Things change quite often on a ship. The guides on the elevators, for example, are often way out of date.
Best Discovery Princess ship tour video out there. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much! Really appreciate it. And yes, I do have more coming (along with lots of port and trip reports)!

Thank you for taking the time to create this tour video. This is one of the better ship’s tour videos I have seen.
Thank you, you're quite welcome. It's great to see so much great response to this video!
That was superb. I thoroughly enjoyed watching. Thank you so much.
You're quite welcome! More coming !

very detailed ship tour. Thank you!
You're welcome!
Just watching this now - excellent video - have subscribed 😊
Thanks so much!
Thanks. Job well done
You're very welcome!
Very nice work on the video. That had to take a long time to edit and render.
Sure did, but it was fun! Besides, Discovery is probably my favorite Princess ship so far.
@@ThePortLowdown Can't wait for May 2025. First time with Princess. First time on Discovery 🙂
Discovery is my favorite ship! Hope you have a fine time!

@@ThePortLowdown Thank you very much for the response! Can't wait to sail on this ship!
Sorry, I meant to say it was turned into an arcade. It must have been very recent since the arcade was opened on our last sail.
Is the princess live coffee bar included in plus?
Yes it is!
Do you reserve seats in the Princess theatre?
Usually no, but if buy Princess Premiere, they will reserve a section for you.
There doesn’t seem to much difference in princess 🚢 other than the buffet and couple different restaurants some smaller some larger
That's true for most of the ships. The layout is a design repeat customers favor. But we'll see how their new ships, the Sun and Star, measure up.
The Greens mini golf is more a putting green and not a true mini golf.
Yes, it's smallish. I imagine the mega ships might have a true one
