      We agree! Met one other black couple, the Quintons from Atlanta, on this cruise. There was also a black nurse, Mary, working the cruise on a contract basis.

    What a love couple! So good to see people of colour travelling in luxury and style! Loved this vlog. Can’t wait binge watch the series! I hope my husband and I get an opportunity to do this! Life’s to short - enjoy everything and don’t miss nothing out!

      Thanks so much! 😊. I hope you enjoyed it. You are right....get out there and enjoy. We have been on 4 Regent cruises, and we have only been onboard with 4 other black people. But we are not the types to shy away; we just do the things we want to, regardless!

      I’m going to share this series with my family! I live in the UK and of Caribbean descent. My last Caribbean cruise was in Feb 2019 with Viking throughly enjoyed the ship, the service and the destinations! Definitely going to give Regent a go when things settles down.😊

    Thanks for your videos on the Regent Splendor! My wife and I will be on the Splendor April 2022 from Nice to Monte Carlo. Can’t wait! And we have a Splendor Suite as you did. Certainly looking forward to the stay in that suite! We were on the Regent Explorer just pre-COVID and are definitely Regent fans!

      Your welcome!! We have done Monaco to Athens on the Explorer, so you should have a great time! Our butler was Leslie, and we did have him do the caviar service and a course by course meal in later videos. I will have a more detailed room and ship tour in my next video.

      Thanks for your prompt response… looking forward to your additional posts on your Splendor trip. We also have booked the new Silversea Silver Dawn for late Dec/New Years 2022, and the new upcoming Oceania Vista in Aug 2023… the Vista will be a British Isles cruise.

    • @DJTravels
      @DJTravels  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      We are going to try a 7 night on Crystal Miami - Bahamas - Miami in March; we have heard good things. Then during the summer, probably the same time as you, we are doing the Baltic and British Isles (back-to-back) on Regent Voyager. Would like to try Oceania sometime after that; we have heard that the food is the best at sea!

      @@DJTravels Sounds great on your Crystal cruise in March! Check out the TH-cam videos on the upcoming “Oceania Vista”… pretty impressive! Also if you haven’t tried any of the new Silversea ships, might be something to consider. Very similar to Regent, ultra all inclusive, etc. Outstanding service and great suites! The new “Silver Dawn” comes out in March 2022 I think. We would rank our top 3 lines as Regent, Silversea, and Seabourn.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to share your Regent cruise experience with your viewers. I really enjoyed seeing you both on that beautiful ship. We've got 3 upcoming cruises, and we're anxious to get going on our cruising routine again. Our next one is on the Enchanted Princess, but we're most excited about the next two longer cruises on the Oceania Riviera. We're anxious to book on the upcoming Oceania Vista.

      Great vid. The passion fruit ice course was only the palate cleanser. Don’t think it was a good course. Once the tongue is cleaned you can enjoy the entree better…..I think.

    My Caribbean cruise on Splendor is just 3 weeks away so I’ve been watching your videos again. What is the tender drill like these days? I’ve heard that on some cruise lines you watch a video in your stateroom and then go to your assigned station to sign it. That’s it.
    In a couple of days I can log onto my Regent account and view a video. I’m hoping that’s the one. I know my 2017 Regent cruise drill did not require us to wear the life preserver to our muster station. That was a relief.

    • @DJTravels
      @DJTravels  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think you meant muster drill. If so, watch the video that they send and do your online boarding pass stuff a couple of days before. All you have to do after you check in is go to the muster station on your room/Id card, and they check you off in right then and there. No hastle!

    Just watched and subscribed to your channel. I am a cruise fan, myself, having just exited Encore earlier this month and will board Sky Princess in two weeks.
    The Regent Seven Seas experience is atop my bucket list and your boarding video made me feel as if I were right there with you both. I’ve wondered what the small terminal the luxury cruise lines use in Miami is like and now I know. The Splendour is a beautiful vessel and you had a stunning suite.
    Very much looking forward to watching your upcoming VLOGs of this sailing!

    • @DJTravels

      Glad you enjoyed it! Regent is a great cruise line. Much more quiet and reserved when compared to the larger ships. Not as many activities, but if you want to eat well and relax, this is the line for you!

    Did you book direct or through a travel agent/3rd party?

    • @DJTravels
      @DJTravels  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Because we had a credit from a cruise cancelled due to Covid, we booked this one directly through Regent. We have another coming up in August (fingers crossed), that we booked though Costco Travel. Same cost, but Costco will give you onboard credits and a Costco gift card. Usually adds up to about 2-3% of the total cruise cost.
