Was there a wheelchair accessible way to cable car at all?
Yes the cable car is accessible, step free from pavement to cable car and there are lifts when at the top ☺️
Is this trip pram & wheelchair friendly at all?
I’ve just found this on the website ☺️ The path through the cave has a non-slip concrete surface and is without steps. It does, however, have a slightly sloping section, which is approximately 200 metres in length, rising by about 40 metres, and is followed by a similar descending section (a 20% incline). Visitors with mobility impairments who need a wheelchair and/or assistance from a person tending to them are advised to visit the part of Postojna Cave that is toured by cave train. You are of course welcome to do the entire tour, however, providing that you are accompanied by a person, who can help you get over the sloping path section inside the cave. The cave footpath is 1.2 kilometres long. All visitors with mobility impairments and their companions are entitled a 50% discount on tour tickets, providing they present a suitable mobility impairment certificate (only at the ticket office). Advance notice at least 2 days in advance is mandatory for wheelchair users. Hope this helps ☺️
Just came off this ship last week on cruise from Corfu, must be the worst buffet anywhere on land or at sea, very poor-quality limited choice of food, this mixed with the constant waft of an open drain didn't make for good dining, the ship is very much Benidorm at sea with Butlins type entertainment throughout. That was our first and absolute last Marella cruise, lovely staff but the ship is well past its sell by date. Don’t be fooled by amateur videos such as these portraying false elegance, the ship was built in the 90s and it shows, as they say you can’t polish a turd even if you roll it glitter.
Thanks for watching Dan, my videos show my experience exactly as they happen. I include negative parts if necessary, but if I don’t experience it then I cannot show it ☺️ For example, in this cabin tour I show the clear wear and tear of the cabin. I will always give a completely honest review of my experience ☺️
So funny when nail polish is moving
I just saw the prices on the menu... 16 euros for a ham and cheese toasted sandwich... I knew these cruise ports would be a little pricey but that is daylight robbery lol. Will be taking food from the ship for the day if this is the prices at each port.
Haha these definitely aren’t prices we would normally pay, was definitely a treat meal and thankfully filled us up for a long time 🤣 I think it’s more expensive because of the view too ☺️ thank you for watching!
That looked exhausting 😌 but the views were so worth it! Do do 😂
There were so many stairs 😅 definitely worth it 😄
Sorry.. did you say 15 or 50 minutes into old town? Thankyou
Sorry it was 15 ☺️
Your video is awesome! Thanks for sharing! I'm a loyal fan and friend of your channel. Best regards from Germany!💜💜💜💜👍
Thank you so much! ☺️
Just back from one week on the Marella Explorer, and can only describe it as Benidorm at sea with a lot of Butlins style entertainment, and I'm no prude, I would imagine she will be getting hacked to pieces in an Indian decommissioning ship wrecking yard very soon. A lot of areas smelt of open drains, poorest quality buffet ever seen (on land or sea) with maybe 4 evening choices of very poor quality food as was breakfast and lunch....................The places visited were very nice, but as for the ship its a true saying, you cant polish a turd. Oh and nearly forgot the 2.5 hour wait to get into Corfu airport which in all took 4 hours from arriving at airport to getting through security.
Oh no, I’m so sorry you had this experience ☹️ we did have a VERY long queue at the airport going home though!
Is it £6 per person each way or this price for a round trip to and from using the Tui bus shuttle? Thanks.
Hi Kevin, this was return per person using the TUI shuttle ☺️ Thank you for watching!
Really nice. Thanks for sharing your cruise. Like 6. Your newest sub❤️🙏
Thank you so much for your support! ☺️
Don't really like to be in the forward section of a cruise ship. Good to have a safe. Looks like a nice stateroom. A tea pot in a stateroom? That is a fire hazard. I don't weigh as much as I used to, but, the shower looks small. Did you see the video of the safety drill? Extra charge for room service? Am subscribed and even hit the like button.
The forward seems to be the rockiest place! Luckily this was midship ☺️ English lines tend to have a kettle for our cups of tea or coffee 😁
Do not believe I would take a lift like that. If you drag the slege up you could ride it down. Was that an egg roll or a spring roll? There is a difference. You looked like you enjoyed yourself there.
Haha it was very safe and worth it for the views at the top! Yes we took the sledge up and rode it back down part of the mountain! It was a spring roll ☺️ We had a great day in Olden!
Nice video Lucy. It’s a shame it rained on your trip, but it looked like a lovely day out at an amazing place! Yes, that male singer sounded a bit off key to put it mildly!
Thank you! Yes the views were still amazing despite the weather!
That looks like some hike. Rain during the shore excursion. The Vegetable Samosa looks interesting. Not a fan of curries. Maybe skip this eatery. Don't eat shellfish. Am subscribed and did hit the like button.
The hike was tough! The rain was a shame but was still very pretty! I probably wouldn’t go to Kora La again with that menu!
Ah, must be in Norway. Baked Beans and sausage? Yuck. Defiantly not breakfast food. They have Gelato. Princess Cruises have a Gelato place too. The Menu didn't look too appealing.
Haha you should give the sausage and beans a try!
@@Travellifewithlucy I don't eat sausage. Baked beans are not for breakfast.
Those caves are stunning! 😍 Amy was screaming at the TV that she doesn't recognise this ship, even though we've had been on it (albeit a few years ago now!) 😂
They are SO amazing!! 🤣 it’s a sign to go back on!!
Alesund looks nice. Wouldn't have baked beans with breakfast. Don't eat sausage. From the other pier you could get a good picture of the P&O Iona. The Gyros look good as does the Margarita Pizza. For dessert Classic Tiramisu. That should hold until snack time. Ah, a Sparkling White Wine. Like Prosecco. What, don't you go to the casino?
Haha sausage and beans at breakfast is very British! We do like the casino a lot, but don’t go every night ☺️
Walking around the port isn't so bad. Do that a lot in New England and Canada or when going to Bermuda, or going to some islands in the Caribbean. Prefer wine over cocktails. Some of the stuff on the menu I wouldn't eat. Hope they have a vegetarian menu. They're playing soccer. You must have been at the Sports Bar.
Stavanger is a great port to walk around. You dock right in the town ☺️
Do you pay for your parking before you go or when you return? How did the embarkation process go? The Fish 'n Chips looked good. I like wine over mixed drinks. What happened to the other passengers? The Creme of Mushroom Soup looks good. My late wife would probably enjoy the Biscuit Glace. The Grilled Salmon looks good as does the Baked Pumpkin, Butternut squash Risotto. Apple Tarte Tatin looks good too to finish it off until snack time later. My late wife likes Hazelnut.
We had parking included with our cruise fare ☺️ the embarkation process was very quick and easy! The fish and chips was one of my favourite meals!
But you can also pay for parking separately too
Trying to catch up on your other trips. That cake looked good. Seemed like getting off the ship went smoothly. Usually when I'm on a cruise it's been chaotic.
Thank you for watching and commenting on them, i really appreciate the support ☺️
On Ambassador Cruise Line do they have a laundry room so you could clean laundry during your cruise? Am subscribed and did hit the like button.
I believe there is a small one on deck 9 ☺️
Should never skip breakfast. Very important meal. Did you have to low bridge at any point in the caves? The best afternoon tea I did was in a coffee shop on Bermuda. Am subscribed and did hit the like button. Trying to get caught up on videos.
Thanks for watching! There was a bridge in the caves which we walked across and then walked under ☺️

Oh my goodness i like you - no self absorbed waffle and video where all you can see is you. New subscriber here.
Aw thank you! I do like to show mostly what I’m actually doing ☺️
The caves look amazing Lucy, and what a great choice of music to accompany that part of your video. Looks like another place to go on our to do list. Thank you.
Thank you!! 😁
Oh my goodness, that train journey! We HAVE to do that!
It was SO cute!! But mind your head! 😅
We are so looking forward to going here in July! Great vlog!
Hope you have the best time! 🤩 thank you!
@@Travellifewithlucy thank you 😊😊
Thank you for posting this video!Can I ask how dark the room was with the curtains closed? Were they black out?
Thanks for watching! It wasn’t completely pitch black but it didn’t affect our sleep at all ☺️
Love it Lucy. Mark needs to make an appearance now i've subscribed! 😂
🤣 I agree, please try and convince him cos I’ve had no luck 🥲
Great video. Loved catching up with a bit of Marella and spotting the differences between the ships
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed your Marella cruise too!
Excellent video! Looks like a great cruise, especially with all those ports of call. I’ve been meaning to do a med cruise so may have to look into it soon! 🚢
Thank you! The ports on this cruise were some of the best I’ve been to, would highly recommend!
Loved this video thank you Lucy. My wife and I are off on the explorer in September and Split is one of the ports. It looks Beautiful 😊
Thank you for watching! It really was a beautiful port ☺️
We are also from on this ship in September
The last day of the cruise. The cakes and ice cream look good. Did you have dessert first? Like pizza, it is very good. Not all cruise lines make pizza well though. The performers that put on the shows work really hard. Cream of Mushroom Soup looks good. Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli looks good too. Chocolate Cherry Trifle looks good too. Since this is the last night maybe an ice cream to top it all off. Not a fan of surf and turf. Don't eat lobster. Looks like you had a good cruise. Anytime you enter the lobby of the ship you are in the atrium. At the top of the stairs the ship photographer took a picture of my wife and I. Back to the UK. Ravioli is good. That looked like a nice trip. Am subscribed and did hit the like button.
Thanks so much for watching ☺️
Belgian Waffles look good. Don't forget Smoked Salmon on bagel. Also, a bowl of Oatmeal. That's a nice view of the ship. Do they still use the Drachma is Greece or do they use Euros? Looks like a kabob with pasta. Did you get Lamb? Get a cake for dessert? Your drink looks too red for Rose. Just a plain salad with Celebrity dressing. Everything rolled by too fast. We saw a comedian on a Celebrity cruise and he was very funny. My wife was laughing very hard. Done a few back to back cruises. Am subscribed and did hit the like button.
Greece use Euros now ☺️ another day of good food! Thank you for watching ☺️
Crete is a good Greek Island. Complimentary bus, very good. Wear a hat, it is very sunny out. Was the gangway steep? Hope you had a big breakfast. That's what you need another boat ride. lol I think Nick the Greek is from Crete. I understand Greek coffee is very strong. Both plates look good. We loved dining in the MDR on that ship. Multi grain bread sounds good. Avocado butter sounds good. Kale Salad looks good. Too hot out for soup. The Haddock Filet looks good. Ice Cream tonight. Chocolate Cake is good too. The Liars Club game is good. Have seen this many times. When in the casino you should learn to play craps. Am subscribed. Did hit the like button.
Yes we loved Crete! The food was all very food this day! Thank you for watching ☺️
You should wear a hat. A lot of cobblestones. Magnets. Wonder if they t-shirts and/or hats? Too early for Souvlaki. Ducks. Have something to eat. Since it is warm there Garden Fresh Salad with Celebrity Dressing. The first Celebrity ship I had the Celebrity Salad Dressing on was the Constellation. Whole Wheat Spaghetti sounds good. Drum fish seems good too. Never had Drum fish before. Creme Brulee for desert. Getting windy there. Need to have breakfast about 0600 hours.
Some how, these didn't come up in order. Don't think would want to go to Turkey. They get actors to put on a show for tourists. Congrats Lucy, you finally got a hat with a brim. Is this included in the tour or extra? What happened to your brimmed hat? Your wine looks a little darker than Rose. The two lettuces looks good with Celebrity Dressing. Ah, Gnocchi, that is good. Baklava is a good dessert. Yay, Congrats on your making money in the casino.
Haha that’s okay, thank you for watching them all! I really appreciate it ☺️ still need to wear the hat more 🤣
Lucy, you are still a youngin. Don't want anything that would cost extra from Room Service. Have to have a good pair of walking shoes. Next time go on a different tour. Or just walk around on your own. On the bus again. Are there shops near where the cruise ship docked? Getting something to eat is always good. What did you get to eat? You really need suntan lotion. You are starting to appear lobster red. Eventually you will go down. The Panzanella Salad looks good. With Celebrity dressing. Never had it before, but, The Vegetable Wellington looks smashing. You didn't show the desserts. Happy Birthday Lucy. Don't like those ariel shows. Crete seems nice.
We would definitely do Athens on our own if we visit again! Thank you ☺️
On Santorini one of the wineries keeps wine under the water. Were you on the Celebrity Constellation? Been on that ship three times. Don't like cable cars. This end looks better. They make white wine at Santorini. A magnet, maybe a hat and/or t-shirt is nice too. You should be wearing a hat, protect yourself. Your face and forehead is starting to turn crimson red. Are you drinking Rose? Celebrity makes a good Cream of Broccoli Soup. Don't like snails. The Pasta Primavera looks good as does the Salmon. I like salmon. The Olive Oil Cremieux is very good. When I had it they didn't call it a Cremieux though. And it didn't have White Chocolate Crumble. The Cafe al Vecchio is a nice place. We enjoyed going there.
Yes we were on Celebrity Constellation ☺️ haha I didn’t wear my hat this day, but I definitely need to wear it more! Yes, I drink Rosé, with a dash of sprite!
Did it again. With that dinner I would have Prosecco. Ah, the casino. Glad you won. Sounds like a good trip to the casino. Profitable. Now, learn to play craps. Santorini is a tender port. Not so great. Hope the weather holds out. If you are late getting back to the ship someone from the cruise line would meet you and help arrange for you to get to the next port, but, it would be at your expense.
It certainly was a great casino trip!
Hope you had room service breakfast. Suntan lotion, bug spray, a hat with a brim. Yes, visiting ancient Ruins. Looks very interesting. Good you had some free time. It would be time to grab a Souvlaki. Ice Cream is good. With Chocolate Chips even better. Greek Salad looks good hope it comes with Tzatziki Sauce. If Mixed Green Salad get it with Celebrity dressing. Salmon looks good. The New York Steak also. Probably stick with Salmon. Crepe Suzette should be a good dessert.
Chocolate chip ice cream is definitely the best! Unfortunately we didn’t try room service but will at some point in the future ☺️
You were on Celebrity, don't think I would sail with Celebrity anymore. They charge too much for a single cruiser. Almost three times as much as a double. Some of the places on shore will not charge local taxes if you show your cruise card. Celebrity Cruise Line has nice casinos on their ships. Prosecco is good as is Riesling. The Pear Salad looks interesting. Never had it before. Onion Soup looks good too. Salmon looks good too. My wife liked Creme Brulee. Might try that. They have a place where you could get Gelato. We like that. If this was a sea day then sleeping late might have been good for you. Butternut Squash soup is good. We even had it aboard a Celebrity ship a few times. If you get a salad you should get the Celebrity Dressing. It's really good. The Flank Steak looks good. So does Steak Diane. Had both on different cruises. May or may not have been with Celebrity. You should have gone to the casino. We know it is formal night. Olympia should be nice.
Celebrity solo prices are definitely too expensive! But their food is some of the best 😁
It is possible to talk about your KZread Store with me?
Hi, Your videos are very beautiful, but your channel is not fully optimized, you are not getting good results due to the lack of SEO of the videos, I hope you will get good results if you optimize your channel.
Sushi isn’t for us either, worth trying everything once though 😅
🤣 I couldn’t say I don’t like it haven’t tried it, but now I can say it’s not for me 🙊
This looks AMAZING Lucy! I definitely need to book myself a Marella cruise. It gives me Celebrity vibes somehow. Split looks beautiful too. One of my favourite vlogs of yours so far ❣️
It was SO AMAZING! Everyone should try a Marella cruise! Thank you so so much 🫶🏻
Am subscribed and did hit the like button. Do they serve breakfast in the MDR? That is why I like to take excursions with sponsored companies. Split is a historic city. They also have plant based meals. On Marella Cruises do they speak in English or are announcements made in multiple languages? Don't eat Shushi. You could get very sick eating it.
Thank you ☺️ yes they serve breakfast in the MDR too! I believe everything on Marella is in English! Haha I won’t be eating the sushi again!
Good choice to walk up the stairs. As I discovered with my wife, she needed to use a walker, people and elevators aren't always polite. Lucy, what was included in the drink package? A Margarita Pizza is really good. Grandma Pizza is good too. On Carnival you could get pizza anytime. At least before COVID. Don't like deck parties. Did you lay down in your hammock? Do like things with the name of the cruise line. Not a fan of cheeseburgers. Am impressed with all the choices with vegetables. Did you get your picture taken? Am subscribed and did hit the like button.
Thanks for watching and subscribing ☺️ yes, used the hammock everyday 😁 no unfortunately didn’t get our photo taken! But I did bring my own tripod to take pictures on the balcony ☺️
I love Marella cruises only been on the one side love to go on another one
We would love to go on another one too ☺️
