Norwegian Cruise Lines (~8% global market share) -- the smallest of the big three that includes Carnival Group (~50%) and Royal Caribbean Group (~25%) -- has Regent as their flagship product, Oceania as their luxury product and Norwegian as their mainstream product. IMHO, Oceania offers the best value to luxury ratio. You get all inclusive specialty dining (that is just as posh as Regent's) and very well appointed mid-size ships -- especially the new Marina and Riviera. If you don't care for expensive artworks and an obscene amount of marble the experience is similar. For perspective, Oceania cruises are typically $1000 to $2500 for a 7~8 day itinerary. Regent's is a little less than twice that, whereas NCL is a little more than half that. Seabourne (Carnival Group) and Crystal (Genting Group) are their direct competitors for the luxury market.
i checked out a few different ship tours, inlucing about 20 of yours and i must confess (even i dont like it, coz you hate smorkers) YOU ARE THE BEST IN DESCRIBING CUISE SHIPS ! so THANK YOU, and stop hating smokers
Why do people insist on commenting like this? Its same as fucking constant step beother/sister porn on porn sites. Come up with something new and original for fuck sake!
We are forgetting to point out that Titanic WAS the most luxurious ship of it era. It was inevitable to be beat with technology advancements and changing trends. A cruise ship in 2120 will be different to one in 2020. Titanic is over 108 years old
Yes, it would be nice to stay in a suite like this. But no mention of price. My friends always book Regent, and usually for a 10-14 days cruise pay north of $20,000. Their suites are around 300 sq ft., so about the same size as a mini suite on other cruise lines, at about 1/3-40% of the cost, and these rooms are just fine. Are they as plush, perhaps not. However for me, it is better to save my money and go on 2 cruises for the price of 1. One of my friends arguments being it's all inclusive, the liquor is included, and the cost of the excursions is included. Well, having just got back from a cruise of 15 days, my excursions were $1,200, and my bar bill was $300. I paid $7700 for my cruise in a mini-suite. They did the same cruise, paid $25,000. To each their own, the friend of mine can afford it but only goes on a cruise once per two years. I do 1-2 per year.
I'd like to go on this cruise line but it's hard to justify the price. It's nice, but I can't even really afford a Disney cruise without probably saving for a while, let alone this. Itinerary might make a difference, but I could probably fly or take at train to some of their stops for cheaper and spend more time there.
They are a premium no doubt but keep in mind Regent includes everything in their cruises. No multi-hundred or even thousand dollar extras like alcohol or excursions. Once you include the value of what you get it becomes closer than a lot of people realize. Still higher? Yes, but not horrifically and it's a premium experience.
But by the time you’ve paid say on average $7000 for two cruise’s a year thats almost the exact same as your friends have paid for the luxury cruise every two years! And is that $7700 including all noninclusive add ons ?
It's also included with ultimate balcony dinner, unlimited shore excursions, butler service, unlimited WiFi (unlike some of cruise that WiFi is not as speed and only for 1 device), L'Occitane shampoo, conditioner & body wash, Hermes body lotion & body spray & guerlain face lotion & hand wash. All your dinnerware (utensils & plates) are from Versace & u could hold mini party in your suite (complimentary). So yea, there's budget, but there's also benefits
Just came back from a cruise on Azamara Journey, they did away with a live casino. It was a 2 week cruise and was nice. We booked Regent for next November 2019.
All the hate comments are literally just whining. If you don't like his voice, that's fine. Just don't watch the video. What do you want him to do? Rearrange his vocal chords?
Propably, or..'IS *it* Really' matter? I think so too.. And, you too, CAN consider 'it' *MORE* like: a *bit* Positive'+++'satire.. Dont you? (T H I N K..;)) - *as* in ( *titanic* Case.. th-cam.com/video/OuSdU8tbcHY/w-d-xo.html ) *Was,* as you well..know'.
Just a lot of hype for a nominal amount of pocket change from the rich big wigs who are empty inside and bored out of their minds! No real entertainment and not a lot of people perhaps makes this attractive? Bonvoyage...............NOT!
@Fox I agree.... :) Me too But I am certainly not going to take my hard earned millions and folk it over to some ideological Boat Ride cruise that makes me believe this or that is luxury. Spend your money wisely pal
@@FAITHM100 I just answered everyone in my comment but for you?, if I am rich and well to do? I definitely won't throw money at a boat that is telling me " if you are RICH this is where the big players meet. The boat is empty doesn't look entertaining. I would be spending my money on something adventurous not life threatening but something with a lasting experience in a positive way of course with my LOVELY WIFE .....but that is me
What a hateful, judgmental little b!tch you are with this ridiculous comment. Just because you can't afford it, doesn't mean you should knock how others spend their money.
What are your impressions of the Seven Seas Explorer?
i got no money, but lot of viewers on my twitch channel, can u buy me tickets for me and my friend? thank you :)
The ship is very nice and so was the video and presentation, thank you.
@@narwhalethefancy Thanks so much!
Absolutely the best tour I have seen!! Thank you!❤
@@carolmassero5699Yay, thanks so much! My pleasure!
C'est magnifique 😍😍😍😍
This is worth every cent they charge. Its an epic vessel, magnificently designed and the standard of services, quality of food is like nothing else.
I’m going on this cruise for 3 weeks, very excited!
Wow such a luxe ship! 😍

Agree whole heartedly
The Regent Suite is one of the best rooms I've ever seen. Nice video!
I enjoyed this video very much, all well presented and explained. Thanks for the upload.
My pleasure! Thanks for the comment!

Did you actually cruise on the ship, or just get a shoreside, 3 hour tour.
Where are you docked?
You all should watch the documentary about the ship!
That I have. It’s fascinating!
Where do I sign up? The decor is amazing.
Right here: www.rssc.com Thanks for watching!
@@PopularCruising :-) By the way, great video!
@@DaveM-FFB Much appreciated! Bon voyage!
Titanic: look I’m the most luxurious ship
Seven Seas Explorer: hold my marble

I still think that titanic is more luxurious and lavishly decorated. Although that might be my liking of the edwardian design
@@eggnogs Or, you know, take it for what it is...a joke.
Amazing!

いつかは乗りたいですね
Great video as always!!!!
Another thing added to the bucket list
I've been waiting for this review! Thank you!
Beautiful!
Are you going on the Azamara Quest as it has just had a refit and it would be great to see a tour.
Just came back from a cruise on Azamara Journey, they did away with a live casino. It was a 2 week cruise and was nice. We booked Regent for next November 2019.
Nice ship. But deserted. Where are the passengers and crew?
I always try to film when there are fewer people around to emphasize the ship. Thanks for watching!
The titanic could never. This ship is stunning
Eu tô encantado 😍
Aquele banheiro é lindo! O meu é todo mofado 😭😭😭
Great video
Is that globe broken in the library, It looks like it took a fall or someone punched it
If I save up for my entire life... I might just about be able to afford a really nice portrait of this ship.
Mike knows you can also book through your own travel agent--kudos to Vision travel and Ellen in Toronto. Johnny Mac.
this is like a dream
fantastic
я безума от твоего голоса, качества видео, и монтажа, продолжай в том же духе. Привет из России !
Titanic who? This must be the most luxurious floating palace in the world...
its beautiful but looks boring
Nice video but slides killed this. You should've filmed the whole thing. I can look at photos on the seven seas website
Looks cramped for the 'World's most luxurious ship' title !
😍😍😍
On bord New mangaloor port
Too bad the cheapest room on costco travel is 13 grand a person!
Carmilite kung mapanood mo to...hala mag ipon muna tayo para maka pag seven seas explorer tayo😁😁😁in the future
I want to go on the 12 day cruise but it is $60,000 :(
what cruise line and cabin category is this?
FAITHM100 Most likely the Regent Suite.
Why is the ship emty
It was at port. Everyone is in town doing tourist stuff.

I hate to be poor... I wonder if one day I gonna have a small portion of lucky 🍀 in my live...
looks like a giant retirement village floating on water
Holy fuck! 😍
Does the narrator sound annoying, or is it just me?

Please lose the music. It is annoying.
joooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnn
Can’t say that I’m impressed. It all looks a bit gaudy and it’s too big to be a true luxury ship.
I still say titanic is more luxurious
nope
I really like your videos, however, I must admit that the constant "backwards" rolling of the video is just unnecessary. Please stop.
Teflon cookware? Very toxic!
the narrators voice is beyond annoying
Couldn’t listen to this voice after two minutes
Meh.
Defintly toms down, very poor interior, for such a massive hard work to build the ship waste of money , yuk!
Beautiful ship, just a pity about the awful commentary!
YOUR REMARK ABOUT SMOKING IS SO UN COOL WHO CARES ABOUT WHATYOU DIS LIKE
It’s a very valid comment to health-minded travelers (the vast majority of passengers, in fact) seeking to avoid toxic second-hand smoke.
Just a lot of hype for a nominal amount of pocket change from the rich big wigs who are empty inside and bored out of their minds! No real entertainment and not a lot of people perhaps makes this attractive?
