    One of the reasons why I enjoy your videos is that it is very apparent how much you enjoy yourselves on these voyages. You aren't simply going or filming for content, nor do I feel like your humor or clips are forced. You both seem genuinely happy and honest and that is what makes these videos so enjoyable to watch.

    I just LOVE these two. So natural, so heartfelt... and you can really feel the pure joy of what they're experiencing.

    Hello Ben and David! Im binge watching your channel for one month now! I found your channel randomly because I love cruises! You inspired me go cruising again after the bad bad times we have to go through! Love your long vlogs! Can they be longer? Hope so! You make my day. Happy cruising! Greetings from Bulgaria 🇧🇬❤

    The Anthem was one of my favorite sailings due in part to amenities, activities, entertainment, ship size and cabin layout. Cannot wait to sail aboard the Anthem again. And that cabin is the best so much storage and separate wardrobes. Magnifique.

    We sailed on the Anthem when she was 3 months old from Southampton we had a cabin right at the front of the ship it was massive it’s such a beautiful ship all the animal photos in the lifts and my favourite was Gigi the gigantic giraffe hope you have a great time can’t wait to start cruising again next year xx

    I enjoyed the pre cruise cruise from 4th to 6th July which was invited guests only. Our one day at sea was unfortunately cool and then wet but it was a great cruise. The crew were especially welcome as they were now back at work. The ship app was very good.

  • @bronniepaterson4694

    We take the hooks night lights and we spend ages sat in bed going through the planner with our highlighters…
    That drinks packages are crazy…we don’t get drink packages…..we take out little speaker it’s nice to have your own music…
    The crew do seem friendly…bet there glad to be working etc….
    Quite right calories don’t count but luckily they have great gyms….
    I run 5/10 miles every other day….guilty pleasures guilt free…😊
    Great series…..👍🇬🇧

    @lisaabere4592 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Your videos are so wonderful... you seem so down to earth and friendly, and you are both just so charming! Anthem is my favorite ship, I had a wonderful time aboard her a few years ago. And David, I always thought I was the only one whose favorite part is the unpacking!

    @TimeisReel 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Guys, Anthem is my second favorite ship, next to Oasis Class. It is a very Smart Design. Every space seems functional on the ship. And it's decorated so nice. And yes David, the Tv does pull out. There is a latch on the back on the side...
    Great Ship. I look forward to Odyssey. It went back to one large Dining Room, which always reminds me of Grand Cruising...

  • @dancarey285

    The best video I have ever seen on this ship. Every cruise line should be begging you to sail with them.

  • @kiddlesk
    @kiddlesk 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the bit about deck 13. My favourite wind-up on a cruise is getting in the elevator with a crowd and asking the 'driver' by the buttons for "13 please". Sometimes they just keep looking for that absent button !!

  • @JohnSmith-cq4hg
    @JohnSmith-cq4hg 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    So fun to watch, Ben, you said your cream puff was just like David “fluffy and delicious”. Hysterical. So entertaining to watch you guys. Thank you David and Ben - Good Night.👍

  • @elizabethblevins5736
    @elizabethblevins5736 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Ben and David. My heart broke to hear that people on the cruise were so rude and unkind to you. Of course, I don't know you personally, but just by watching your videos, your personalities shine. Plus, you're always honest and upfront. Live your happy life. ❤

  • @MrKashmire123
    @MrKashmire123 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I had the delight of being aboard Anthem between Oct 15th-20th (at about a 65% discount, through a ballot of Wolverhampton Wanderers fans - with RCI sponsoring our Training gear), docking at Liverpool and Belfast and seeing this vid prepared me nicely for what a simply beautiful ship and a fun first ever cruise! I can only thank you both for it and the work you do, in showing the beauty of the seas and why they are explored by us!

  • @mpTraveller87
    @mpTraveller87 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You guys were in point in this one! Had me laughing out loud many times not the least of which during “ice cream face” and “cream puff” snicker…. Going on the same ship this coming February! Thanks for the preview!!

    I wish I’d known you were going on Anthem, I’d have gotten you to say hi to my favourite entertainment director Jeff Eaton. I’m so glad he’s back to doing what he loves. Sad he’s not still on Ovation, but good for him.

    Amazing the difference in watching Royal an Viking video vs MSC. Take away the splendid looks of the MSC an just reading body language Royal an Viking blow MSC out of the water.

    the hook idea is brilliant!! We use heavy duty magnetic chip clips, which work really well too. But i'm going to add those hooks for our next cruise (sadly, not until july 2022). We also highlight our compasses (or more likely disney navigators) every night too. I sure hope they don't do away with them entirely!!!

    270 is my favorite spot, it is like a secret hideaway. On ovation in the morning I go get a coffee and hide upstairs in there and watch the world go by, I then normally progress to the cafe on the esplanade and get my second coffee and retire to my balcony until lunch then I am back in 270 for a good part of the arvo for bingo a what ever else may be on.
