Ambassador Ambition FULL REVIEW - Is it better than P&O or Marella. Is it VALUE for money?

#cruise #ambassador #cruisereview
We give a full review of our experience on Ambassador Cruises Ambition ship. We discuss the pros and the cons of the food, the entertainment, the ship, the cabin and decide if it was worth the cost.
Will we ever cruise with Ambassador again?

    A really well-crafted video, that summarises everything anyone would wish to know about sailing with this group. All done in a straightforward, informative, honest manner with a touch of gentle humour. Must suggest to Gary Bembridge (Tips for Travellers) that he needs to include more detail on toilet leg room in his future videos ! Fully understand that you needed to taste every wine - purely in the interests of journalistic research. Mind you, Lisa seems to do that when I spot her doing the weekly shop at Tescos 😂

    Great video, thanks. I spent one night on Ambience for the Christmas party night which was great so booked Scandinavia with them next year...Can't wait, I don't mind a dated cabin as long as it's clean and liked the layout, interesting to see Ambition TFS.

    Just back on Monday on Marella discovery,standards really slipping I think,plus they lost our case from marmaris hotel to port 25 min journey and really they didn't help us at all.We were offered other passengers clothes from lost property box,they said we can give you toilets didn't arrive,told us just go but more cloths,with what buttons??? I cried 77yrs old in tears never will I travel with them again,ever.We have done loads cruises with them over the years,and where's the loyalty to passengers.

    We have just come off the Discovery 2 and noticed a lot of changes ... This cruise line is tempting us to try something different after 28 Tui based cruises...

    Wow! 28 Tui cruises! We are only on 5 at the moment. If you find a cruise that has a good itinerary on Ambassador, we would highly recommend it. Don't book with Cunard though, until you have watched our videos that we have coming up. 😆 Thanks for watching 👍

    Generally, we don't table share either and weren't particularly looking forward to it, but it was fine. It absolutely depends on your tablemates though. We have previously sat with some odious people that I would normally go out of my way to avoid. And I am sure some people would say the same about us! 😀 I am sure that if you spoke to staff they could try and accommodate you on a table for two but obviously there are no guarantees. Thanks for watching 👍

    We have no major issue with the gratuities as they are declared up front. I would, however, always prefer everything to be included in the price. We had the drinks package, which included the gratuities anyway. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
