Another video that provides wide range of info that’s straight to the point but also with charming humour as my wife says. Keep them coming . Keep well and hello to Mafoo.

I'm new to the Marella line and did Discovery a couple of weeks back. Looking at this vlog and others, this ship is clearly up to date so to speak. Discovery looks tired and needs some serious TLC.... loving the uploads. ❤

Having just returned from 2 weeks on Discovery we😮 love the ship and Discovery 2. We had a newly refurbished cabin everything was great lovely units and plenty of them including the bathroom. The cabin doors were the only thing that showed the age of the ship. The crew were lovely and I got on famously with the Entertainment Team would have no hesitation in going with Marella again.

Being an ex Royal ship, thought it might have been more disabled friendly - IE, I saw some self opening doors to the exterior areas? Appeared to have stepped areas to bars etc, on a positive, ship is a massive upgrade on my only Thompson cruise, The Topaz, thanks for the walk through👍

We love Marella cruises, the medium sized ships are perfect for us with the laid-back atmosphere, not too noisy, plenty of space, all inclusive fair including alcoholic drinks and of course value for money. Our next Marella cruise will be a two week affair in the Adriatic next June and we are really looking forward to that. Great video showcasing their new addition to the fleet which has made us keen to try it out soon. I think you suggested in a previous video that booking a speciality restaurant on the first sea day out of Dubrovnik would be a good idea, I’m I remembering correctly?

Hey Jamie great video as always! You mentioned a DJ providing entertainment in The Electric Rooms is there a live band here providing nightly entertainment too as there is on the Explorer 2? We are going on the Voyager in a few weeks time and hoping there will be 🙆🏽‍♀️

@@TravelBlogJamie thanks so much for your response. We did an Adriatic cruise on Marella Explorer 2 in June 2023 and they had a resident Filipino band who played late night live music every night in the venue next to the casino, also called the Electric Rooms, I think. They were amazing! And very interactive with the crowd. We were rather hoping they’d have the same on the Voyager which we are travelling on to the Caribbean in March. Have to say I just love on your highly informative, very entertaining and fun, fun, fun videos. Ignore the haters Jamie, you are brilliant and always look good! You have a great format and of course, Mafoo!!
