What Virgin Voyages is Really Like - Valiant Lady Cruise Review + Tour - Is it worth it?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 มิ.ย. 2024
- Welcome aboard Valiant Lady. Virgin Voyages is completely different than any their cruise line. In fact, they're a cruise line that's not even called a cruise line. Many things were a hit, some were amiss, but overall, it was a very different experience than any of the mainstream lines.
Hope you enjoy!

I’m only six minutes in, but I’ve probably watched 30-40 videos on Virgin Voyages already since I can’t wait for my cruise departure in April, and your video is by far one of my favorites. Your energy is fantastic and I love the pace of the video. The editing is phenomenal too. Can’t wait to watch the rest of your videos - already subscribed!
Thank you so much 😃😃
I’m going April 2,2023
I've watched so many Virgin videos. We're planning to cruise with them in August. I have a habit of doing too much research any time we plan to spend a lot of money
Me too 😅😅😅😅🎉🎉🎉🎉
I'm debating on booking now. How did you like it?
This is by far the best review of Virgin Voyages on I've seen so far! Incredible drone footage and you really showed everything in great detail. Now I want to go on a Virgin cruise!
Thanks so much! I highly recommend it!
I've watched many vlogs for this cruise line, as I prepare for mine. This was a fantastic review and gave very detailed information. Thank you for the POV. You're editing is amazing!
Awesome review, so much helpful information. I found my cruise on their FB page to be in the loop, and got my VEIP points from Carnival, qualifying us for perks among other tips! Thank you so much, looking forward to our Valiant Nov Anniversary cruise! ⚓
Kabir, I've followed you on Instagram for a while, but have just found you here on TH-cam - I loved this!
Loved this video. Congrats Kabir! ♥️
You're great at what you do. Your footage and your delivery are captivating. You stand out above the rest; keep up the good work. This is one of the best reviews in general Ive ever watched. Thank you. I look forward to seeing your next one.
Text on the side of the ship is sweet👍
Very well done! Thank you for your work! :)
What a gorgeous and excellent vlog of your cruise. I'm so glad I watched this as I'm sailing on the Valiant Lady in April. You have amazing skills and presence. Thanks.
Fantastic review!
Thanks so much 😃😃
I'm a bit confused..you had rock star status with the black bracelet and access to Richard's Rooftop, but your room was not a rock star room. Great video BTW.
Excellent video...very well done. Looking forward to sailing in March!
Great video! We will be doing this itinerary for New Years.
Thank you for this excellent review ❤
Absolutely love your videos! So well done and put together. Narration perfect and shots/footage excellent. Keep up the good work 😊
Awesome video! Subscribed and looking forward to more.
Thanks Jeff!
I did a Virgin Yoyages Curise in the beginning of 2023 and it was fun. I think of Virgin Yoyages as a carnival cruise but with a civilized crowd, respectable crew, free fine or specialty dining, free basic Wi-Fi (the only thing where I would spend extra is for TH-cam videos otherwise it is fast enough for basic web browsing and social media. Heck I even made a video Skype call form it and it worked well), and most all no Kids. Overall it was fun and I recommend it for young party people into technology.
The recommended restaurants are
Gunbae (good food and you get to socialize with other people)
Extra Virgin (best Italian food)
Pink Avgave (best steak on the ship)
The restaurants I don’t recommend are
The wake (steak could have been better still good but not for my taste)
Test kitchen (portion is too small maybe this could be a good thing)
Razzle Dazzle (boring setup and food was so so. However the Bacon is really good)
Omg take me back!!! Incredible video as always!! So many good memories made ❤
Thanks Emmi!! It was SO FUN! I think we need a round 2!
Great video 👍🏾Thank you
Awhhh miss you guys! It was so great! Such a great video Kabir!
Miss you man!! Thanks 😃😃😃
You are a phenomenal travel vlogger and I’m binge watching all your videos..more please!!
Wow!!! Like the other comments, it's one of the best reviews and footage about that cruise line.
I love your vibe.
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much Neiane 😃 I appreciate the kind words 🙏🏽
This was probably my favourite video of VV! What great content and honest feedback. A bit worried about the food… but the ship
Looks amazing! Can’t wait to travel in May!
Thanks so much Grant! I’m sure they’ll sort the food out by then! Hope you enjoy it 😃
Great video! Thanks for all the info! Im sailing on Valiant Lady 11/12/23 my 1st Virgin cruise! Can't wait! New sub! 👍🙂
I love everything about this voyage
Great exhaustive video in shorter form! I also experienced a couple of rude staff, though I just assumed it was bc I was solo and they just took frustration out on me.
April can't come fast enough for this cruise!!!
Loved your video! Well produced and narrated. I have just come back from a Celebrity cruise, which I liked a lot, but I might consider Virgin for a future cruise with my partner or friends.
Amazing! Thanks so much Kristin! Hope you enjoy it 😃
You did a amazing job ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Great video Kabir hugs from Canada are you Kabir on the weather station...
As many have said, this was a fantastic video. We are going on this same cruise in early 2025 (on the (Scarlett Lady for us) and I can’t wait. Loved the production value and your delivery. It was very relaxing
This means so much! Thank you! ❤️❤️
You have a fantastic voyage!
I remember Rachel as well. She was your right hand woman. I am booked on a Virgin ship our of Melbourne(aust) in December. so so excited.
My wife and I absolutely loved virgin voyages! My wife is a picky eater but I enjoyed everything I tried. We even did the room service and had no issues. You must have got them on a bad day or something.
I loved every morsel of food I had on Virgin..However it was the Scarlet Lady. All the reviews of the Wake are the same. For a steakhouse it does lack flavor ..but I wouldn't gobas far as saying I hated it or complaining to a server.
Can you elaborate on the noise issue? Was it loud neighbors or something with the room location?
Nice video! It actually gave me ideas how to make my next videos and adapted the narration / in-person hybrid style.
Great video on the valiant lady. She’s a gorgeous ship and the atmosphere and the entertainment are excellent. I sailed on her in January 24 from San Juan, Puerto Rico. I thought the food was excellent throughout the cruise. Disappointed to see that your room service was not good. The breakfast room service was the best I’ve ever had on the many cruises I have enjoyed.
We are cruising on resilent lady in December here in Australia for our honeymoon :) so excited :) our cabin doesn't have an A or Z it has an M. So you know what that stands for please?
Ha that's me on stage with the Diva at 11:20!
Omg no way!!
Ive watched bulk loads of Vlogs on Virgin...... This is one of the more professional presented ones ive seen Well done!! Did you get much noise on deck 14 from the upper deck 15 we are traveling to Athens from Sydney in a months time on the same deck😊
Awesome tour!!! I feel like I’m not gonna be just lost when I set sail on 3/11/23. I booked the Cheeky Corner Rockstar Suite biggest balcony, so I wished there had been more insight and tour of the suites…but great tour nonetheless!!
That’s amazing! I hope you enjoy it 😃. I couldn’t get into the suites, they were fully booked. But - from what I saw online they were gorgeous
I have been on VV three times, so far (planning my fourt now). My ship eats were GREAT every time I ordered. Sorry about yours. VV is the BEST!! The food was 🔥🔥 and the crew is the BEST!
Great review. I’ve been on Scarlet Lady twice and have 3 more booked on Valiant. One upcoming in June. As I say to all reviewers; food is subjective. What I like you may hate n vice versa. Room service was amazing on both my sailings on Scarlet. I’m also curious as to how/why you had a Rockstar band, but didn’t stay in a Rockstar suite? Only visits up to the Rooftop. I only stay in Rockstar so hence my curiosity. Glad you enjoyed Virgin as much as I. 😎
It's a great video but it's so detailed, there are so many spoilers, lol. Nice work, though and great for those who want to know everything before they get there.
The Duel Reality blew me away! It was phenomenal.
Ive just subscribed to your channel :) nice to be onboard :) hi from Tasmania Australia ❤
Thanks so much Debbie! Hope you enjoy it 😃
Amazing video!!!
Haha maybe room service is so bad to stray people for using it too much 😂 since its part of the package
Nice Job.............
did access to the spa, without a spa service come at an additional fee? Loved your video, thanks
The spa access was extra, yes
9:00 is the main cup reusable plastic or disposable plastic? I think the paper lid on top makes sense though. You don't want open cups splashing around and reusable lids tend to be super hard to clean. It seems like they've done what they've can to make it a reasonable alternative!
The main cup is reusable! The lid was disposable. I love that they tried to be sustainable, great initiative on their part!
Hey Kabir, I wish you would’ve come back to the week and tried something different because he had what you ordered looked pretty crummy and also I wish they had more options for a healthful version - yeah I’ve heard that the rooms above the wake bar/whatever is down there party night a really loud so I can imagine lotta people move but I’ve seen that watching these reviews. I guess you missed it…
Also uses the first that mentioned the week was so tight. Yeah I don’t wanna be that close to people. :-) vic I’m Ga
... after viewing several other videos about Virgin, you're the first one to mention how bad the food was whereas, others marveled over the food. ;-)
I agree I’m heading on next month Oct. 2023. This is the first video that I’ve heard someone say the food was hit/miss and service as well.
Hey, that's Jake Williams from Bright Sun Films at dinner with you. Random.
Love VV. They will absolutely, gladly turn your bed into a couch every day, at your convenience. You jyst have to let your cabin attendants know, or request it via the tablet, or set it up as to be dine every day.
I don’t exercise will I still have fun? Does the casino have craps table?
I enjoyed your review very much, I have a question about the dress code. I know That Virgin is a casual young vibe.. I will be on the transatlantic voyage from Miami to Barcelona but I’m confused about everybody in shorts. Is there a dressier code for older adults? Thanks for your input
Thanks so much! For the most part it’s casual on board. It would look out of place to dress fully formal, but smart casual for the evening is always a safe bet 😃
You should just dress like you feel comfortable in and you’re not gonna walk in a place in flip-flops majorly casual shorts and a tank top paying well not paying anything but for 80 or $90 dinner so just dress accordingly like if you ever been to Vegas maybe not I guess but if you have you know you can go to fancy restaurants dressed to & in the nines or be smart casual Vic in Ga
I am also booked at that cruise. I use a walker for longer distances.
Best video I’ve watched on virgin. Hands down! Good grief.
#TRAVELWITHKABIR thank you so much for sharing......amazing video. Your energy is intoxicating. I can't wait to book my once in a dream time cruise for 2023. Thank you for making my decision very easy!! Peace, Love, Light and many continued Blessings on all your future voyages.....Letzzzzzzzzzzzzz Gooooooooooooooooo Virgin Voyages Sail Awayyyyyyyyyyy ⚓⚓✈✈⚓⚓🚢🚢
You’re so kind! Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy it 😃😃
I went on Scarlet Lady, the food on that ship was pretty good. I didn't think the Italian restaurant was that great, the mexican restaurant and the wake were really good in my opinion.
That’s great feedback. I think they had some supply chain issues with the food itself. But it’s one of those things that can improve cruise by cruise
Absolutely wonderful video. Great job. Looking forward to watching your videos.... 😁🏳️🌈🌈
Thank you so much 😃
Our cabin on resilent lady has M written after it, so im not sure what that means
Can you please tell me what time they start serving breakfast in the wake and razzle dazzle :)
8 AM
I'm disappointed you said the food is hit or miss. So many reviews I've watched and they say it's incredible. Hubby and I are on this same itin in April 2024 and very much looking forward to it. We have sailed various lines previously and am stoked to do Virgin.
I wouldn’t worry too much about food - it’s a matter of preference.
I’m going there in April so I’m binge watching everything about that. Two ladies been on 15 different cruises said that food was the best here.
Everybody else loved or liked it - this is first I’ve seen with bad experience about food.
There were negative video about lost baggage and maintenance issues but nothing about food
I have watched a lot of Virgin Voyages videos and the design of the ship always seems like a bunch of disjointed spaces. The finishing, entertainment and food looks really good tho.
Video was great btw.
What are you using for your drone shots?
It’s the Mavic Mini 3, the most incredible drone I’ve ever owned!
@Travel With Kabir awesome thanks! & great video cant wait until my sail
Have just subscribed to your channel :) nice to be onboard :)
Why did u have to change your cabin? It was very noisy?
Did you pay for this cruise?
It's such a shame that being onboard you don't get to see the digital display on the side of the ship as it leaves Port
Because it's love for those left at the port
One of the best Cruise line company in the world. All the facilities provided by them are top class. Food on this cruise fails all the big restaurants.
Any ping pong table on the ship?
Hmmm that’s a good question. Not that I saw! But I’m not 100% on that
@@TravelWithKabirCD I finished the cruises 9 days ago. There is no Ping Pong table for sure. They don't have a dancing floor for live music too.
Wooo this dude is fine as hell. Subscribed.
It's a lovely ship looks like lots of fun but I'm a foodie. I need the food to be better
I think it did improve after we left :)
Great review.
Just wondering how sexually explicit are they on the ship that You mentioned
Not explicit at all they poke fun for sure but nothing explicit
Il a réussi à se faire inviter avec même pas 2000 abonnés 😂
I don’t like the fact there isn’t a pool .
You seem to do alot of complaining, is this on purpose ?
I'm confused, so is this cruise strictly for gay people only?
It’s for absolutely everyone
First and last view of your channel. Luckily there are 7.8 billion other people on this planet for you to try and impress
You seem to complain a lot. Maybe you're a Carnival guy?
I feel like virgin is just for gays
epicenter of murican consumerism ....but VEGIE is importnt LOL
