- Welcome to my new feature length vlog series, 1 Week onboard MSC Preziosa Cruising Northern Europe (Hamburg, Rotterdam, Bruges, Le Havre / Honfleur)! In this episode I'll show you the check in and boarding process with MSC from Horizon Cruise Terminal in Southampton UK, first impressions of our standard inside cabin and the ship generally, how muster / emergency drills work on MSC, all meals and food reviewed, including the buffet, the main dining room, and speciality dining at Butcher's Cut, all the bars / venues onboard, drinks menus and prices, drinks packages, an afternoon at the Aurea Thermal Suite, what to do on a sea day and our visit to Hamburg. We avoided all MSC excursions throughout the cruise and did our own thing so I'll show you all our experiences ashore and how to save money. Let's do this!

😂 “plop and snack”, and “Fishphanne” made me howl. Thank you for your hard work, time and efforts to make these videos Jamie. Your videos are brilliant :-)
They made me laugh too 😂
Looks amazing! Can't wait for part 2🙌
Thank you 🙏
A week cruising Northern Europe are filled with breathtaking views and unforgettable memories 🌊✨ Thank you for sharing this amazing journey with us! ♥
Thank you 🙏
@@TravelBlogJamie You're so welcome! I'm looking forward for more uploads from you! ☺
Looks like you've had a great start to your cruise. Looking forward to part two.
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for this Jamie, doing the same cruise in January so really good info for us. Can’t wait for next episode 👍😘
Thank you and enjoy ☺️
Another amazing vlog Jamie, was a great watch & very funny from start to finish!
I had to rewind when you went to the Hamburg fish & chip shop that was hilarious & the red cocktail comment had me in tears of laughter!
You & maffoo looking so dapper in your blazers & shirts & maffoo is so sweet love seeing him on your vlogs as well!
Keep being awesome & bringing the best content! 👍👌🫶🛳️🛟
Thank youuuuu so much for your kindness ❤️
Gotta say, you looked as exhausted after eating at Butcher's Cut as I was! I just knew you guys would enjoy the experience. They don't kid around with those portions 😄.
I was ready for a very long sleep 😴
Very timely as I'm going on this same exact ship and itinerary in 5 days.
Oh and part 2 will be out before then as well!
I did that same itinerary back in March on board Euribia. Hoping to go again next year in December to see all the Xmas markets. In Hamburg, we actually walked to the city centre.. it took us around 30-40 min ( very good cardio) and the best thing about the walk is that you get to go underground to cross the river Elbe. The old Elbe tunnel is absolutely spectacular and I absolutely loved the old fashioned lifts .. best thing it’s all free for pedestrians. I’d highly recommend ❤ 🇩🇪 ❤
❤️❤️❤️
My fave cruise blog channel!
❤️❤️❤️
I just did a very similar itinerary with P&O!! Brugge was my favourite spot, such a beautiful city!
Glad you enjoyed!
Very very excited to see! One of my favourite MSC Ships! :)
🙏🙏🙏
Me and my partner are going on this exact cruise during Christmas, loving your vlogs, you’re hilarious 🤣✨
Have a great cruise! 🚢
Let’s do this! ❤
Good informative & entertaining stuff 👍 Matthew looked urbane in his jacket. Looking forward to the Rotters episode and my next trip when Eurostar resumes Feb 2025
🙏🙏🙏
You will do well on FO Bolette with your new word #Glorious as shes known by our captain in September as The Glorious Bolette! Loved this vlog xxc
Thank you 🙏
Jamie, we are going on Preziosa in Jan and are also diamond members. Did you book butchers cut before your cruise or on board as we want to dine there too. Thanks
Booked as soon as we boarded
Probably the best review I've seen on Msc. Hopefully the good service and food will continue in part 2!? Looks a bit more civilised than Virtuosa?
It does indeed continue into part 2, thankfully 😅
Great vlog, did you book direct and looking forward to seeing cost verses drink package. Thank you Jamie. Xx
I always book direct, yes
Please tell me you have plans for an MSC Explora cruise🥰 You're my cruise guru and I think we all need you on that ship!
Not at those prices!
We love you both too
❤️
Hello Jamie and matzo have a great time
👍
Looks like an amazing ship for the price. Maffoo's steak looked tasty. It seems like a bit of a theme that cruise lines have unheated outside pools?
On VV the pool was toasty, on Princess 2 pools were heated beautifully from day 2, FO are always toasty… depends on the crew and the level of cut backs they are happy to make I think!
The Dutch chips in Hamburg made me smirk 🤭
👌
Great video, we do this cruise in a few weeks. Question - you mentioned having your Covid passports ready!? I’ve not seen any information on this in my booking - what is a Covid passport!? Just proof of vaccinations? Thanks again 😁
Sorry I can’t see / hear anywhere where I said Covid passports? 🤔 You just need a passport
@ Sorry my mistake! I came to your video after watching someone else from a year ago where they mentioned Covid passports, I’ve got them mixed up in my head! 🤦🏽♀️😂
Did you say Diamond level 😂😂x good for you. Lovely to see maffoooooooo 🎉
I miiiight have mentioned it
@TravelBlogJamie good on ya keep saying it x
Hi jamie what time does the buffet restraunt open for lunch
11.30 - 12 depending on whether in port or at sea
❤❤❤
💋
What time does the shops open on sea days
Don’t know
Do you not use your pillow mist anymore x
Yes, at home and when I take it on trips
So the thermal area is not the greatest, not equal to or better than the Virtuosa, reminds me of the Splendida. All are mighty fine ships giving a great holiday cruise experience. Reading the comments, that price is excellent, I would love to cruise the Adriatic sea to Croatia, wish one of the newer ships would be there.
I do love cruising the Adriatic
I dare you to order All?
The menu 😊 very funny wen what I did last time did with all puddings
😂
Only 500 £ a person for a week cruise ? Going to look into it. Or is that an other of those Diamonds benefits ?
As for what you make of an the whole experience it often is up to how you deal with it I think . Like how you tell us about the 45min wait for the shuttle and then show us the beautiful rainbow 🤗
The price had nothing to do with diamond membership - you can find this same cruise for £330 at the moment 👌👌👌
Does laconda open for 60mins lunch
👍
🎉🎉🎉
🥂🥂🥂
We were on this exact cruise 😁 my wife is the one walking past with the blonde hair and Green dress at 40.23 on Gala night 😃
Hello wife 👋 lol 😂
😂 when we started watching your video we thought it might have been the week after we disembarked, until we seen the date on your ticket in Hamburg which read 13/10/24… 😆 from then onwards we realised it was our cruise and were looking to see if we could spot ourselves lol. I’ll now probably go back to the start again and look again now I know!
It was a good cruise. We also waited a while on our shuttle bus in Hamburg like you did, but we didn’t spot ourselves in the bus queue lol
@ oh you might be in part 2!
@ yeah I’ll be watching! 😊
I would love to see a sample of preziosa daily programme
I’m sure I included that
Hi jamie when wil part 2 be out
Wednesday. All my vlogs are out Wednesdays and Saturdays. Turn on notifications to help
Come on Saturday 😂🎉🎉
😂
Im going on this ship and itinerary on the 20th dec
Have fun!
Bonus cruise 10th Jan. Same itinerary £339 absolute bargain. Could not find anything near this price for seven nights.
It’s the cheapest out there at the moment
You can tell you’re a Plymouth boy. Marksies!
💯
Jamie, that’s not Hollywood! 🤭🤭🤭
Oh
Can't believe you're a Diamond Member. I'm so angry now. How very dare you! 😂
Slap my face, I deserve it
😂@@TravelBlogJamie
Enjoyed the vlog Jamie ... good to see Mafoo! Got my scrabble out to see which letter he could have changed lol 😅 Another big thumbs up from us... have a great weekend Neil and Ant 😊
Thank youuuu
But Starbucks??
But that’s your take on a whole vlog???
