00;00;00;01 - 00;00;03;17
Is it possible to seek a Walt Disney World
or Universal
00;00;03;18 - 00;00;06;28
Orlando holiday
and a cruise in the same holiday?
00;00;07;04 - 00;00;09;02
Is it possible?
00;00;09;02 - 00;00;10;29
If it is, how would you go about?
00;00;10;29 - 00;00;12;08
Is there a better way of doing it?
00;00;12;08 - 00;00;14;25
Lands in sea, Sea and lands?
00;00;14;25 - 00;00;16;09
Or is there a third way of doing it?
00;00;16;09 - 00;00;17;15
Well, stay tuned.
00;00;17;15 - 00;00;21;04
We're going to be talking all
about the best ways of combining a cruise
00;00;21;09 - 00;00;23;06
with a trip to Orlando.
00;00;23;06 - 00;00;25;26
Let's jump straight into it.
Is it possible?
00;00;25;26 - 00;00;26;27
Yes, of course it is.
00;00;26;27 - 00;00;28;01
Well, actually, it's
00;00;28;01 - 00;00;32;11
more than possible because Port Canaveral,
which is about an hour away,
00;00;32;11 - 00;00;37;02
45 minutes away from Orlando, is
one of the busiest airports in the world.
00;00;37;06 - 00;00;43;05
So many people go and do a Orlando holiday
and then take a cruise afterwards,
00;00;43;05 - 00;00;45;10
or do they do beforehand
or even in the middle.
00;00;45;10 - 00;00;49;03
So US will be talking about
Plus also, you've got the ports of Tampa,
00;00;49;07 - 00;00;52;26
which certainly about an hour away, and
you can also fly down to Miami as well.
00;00;52;27 - 00;00;58;04
So if you want to add on a cruise
to a trip to Orlando, to the theme
00;00;58;04 - 00;01;01;12
parks, there are plenty different ways
of doing it.
00;01;01;13 - 00;01;03;28
So firstly,
why would you want to do a cruise?
00;01;03;28 - 00;01;08;12
Okay, If you've done a great before,
that's going to be a hard questions to do
00;01;08;12 - 00;01;10;20
because you just
don't know we're missing out.
00;01;10;23 - 00;01;11;10
Crazy is a
00;01;11;10 - 00;01;14;19
fantastic
because you get to wake up to a new place
00;01;14;19 - 00;01;19;06
every single day without you
having to unpack or do anything else.
00;01;19;09 - 00;01;21;03
You get your food all included.
00;01;21;03 - 00;01;23;04
So which is completely different
to being in the theme parks.
00;01;23;04 - 00;01;27;06
Even if she had to dine in Chinese to go
Pikachu, it isn't salt
00;01;27;09 - 00;01;29;21
and you just relax in the level of service
00;01;29;21 - 00;01;32;22
and quality you're going to get on
a cruise ship is second to none.
00;01;32;27 - 00;01;34;11
Say in the theme parks
00;01;34;11 - 00;01;35;23
and they've got hundreds of thousands
00;01;35;23 - 00;01;38;01
of people per day
that need to see these just don't
00;01;38;01 - 00;01;42;14
get that level of personal service,
which you do get that on a cruise ship.
00;01;42;17 - 00;01;45;06
So what's the best way of doing it?
00;01;45;06 - 00;01;48;02
Is it to do land first or sea first?
00;01;48;02 - 00;01;52;06
Well, I think this very much comes down
to what you want to do
00;01;52;09 - 00;01;53;22
and your level expectations.
00;01;53;22 - 00;01;57;04
So this is sort of talk
through the different cruise lines
00;01;57;06 - 00;01;58;09
that you can go with.
00;01;58;09 - 00;02;00;09
So from Port Canaveral,
00;02;00;09 - 00;02;03;08
the first was going to come to Miami
Disney, because you could because, well,
00;02;03;08 - 00;02;03;25
Disney World.
00;02;03;25 - 00;02;08;01
So Disney as a cruise line
goes and out of Port Canaveral,
00;02;08;05 - 00;02;11;05
they have the Disney wish,
which is based there all year round.
00;02;11;10 - 00;02;14;29
And that's free of full night cruises
for the majority of the year.
00;02;15;01 - 00;02;17;11
Okay. Next one is Royal Caribbean.
00;02;17;11 - 00;02;21;03
And Royal Caribbean is massive cruise line
that everyone's heard of
00;02;21;07 - 00;02;24;19
is the one with the wave rider at the back
seeing the surfing.
00;02;24;25 - 00;02;27;00
It's called the Aqua Park
who that kind of stuff.
00;02;27;00 - 00;02;28;29
And they're absolutely huge ships.
00;02;28;29 - 00;02;32;06
So they go out of Port Canaveral as well.
00;02;32;08 - 00;02;35;23
Norwegian Cruise Line is one
that people may not have heard of.
00;02;35;25 - 00;02;38;25
The Norwegian Cruise Line is a fantastic
00;02;39;02 - 00;02;42;22
they are smaller
than the Royal Caribbean ships,
00;02;42;22 - 00;02;46;22
but they have so much to do and so much
increase in their fares as well.
00;02;46;24 - 00;02;50;05
And MSC is the Italian cruise line
that also go out of book
00;02;50;06 - 00;02;52;13
an Africa with certain times of the year.
00;02;52;13 - 00;02;56;07
And then you've also got Carnival
Cruises as well.
00;02;56;09 - 00;02;59;19
A lot of people think these are party
cruises, but they're not always,
00;02;59;21 - 00;03;02;16
you see, to double check
as to which cruise you go onto.
00;03;02;16 - 00;03;03;29
Okay. Take some of the crew.
00;03;03;29 - 00;03;07;03
I mean, there's sort of three or four
nights is sometimes a seven line
00;03;07;03 - 00;03;11;06
cruises
as well would talk a bit more about why
00;03;11;07 - 00;03;13;17
some people would just do a friend
a four night cruise
00;03;13;17 - 00;03;16;17
and why some people would do a seven night
cruise a bit later.
00;03;16;17 - 00;03;20;03
Not if you go times to Miami,
get a bit more choice.
00;03;20;03 - 00;03;22;06
Seek all those ones of all dimension.
00;03;22;06 - 00;03;24;11
Plus you will get celebrity cruises
00;03;24;11 - 00;03;27;04
and celebrity
really get it to the Florida Keys.
00;03;27;04 - 00;03;30;14
So if you want to combine a trip
to Walt Disney World, we do.
00;03;30;14 - 00;03;31;20
Doing the Florida Keys.
00;03;31;20 - 00;03;35;03
Probably the best way of doing
it is take one of the celebrity cruises
00;03;35;06 - 00;03;36;14
because they're going to take you down.
00;03;36;14 - 00;03;40;21
Do you go to visit
all the popular places down along the Keys
00;03;40;24 - 00;03;43;16
and then one of the islands,
as well as maybe Bahamas
00;03;43;16 - 00;03;46;16
or Barbados, putting
what's on your itinerary.
00;03;46;19 - 00;03;49;03
And it's so much better
value than drive in.
00;03;49;03 - 00;03;51;12
That one is always tried and true.
00;03;51;12 - 00;03;55;19
The Florida Keys itself to
00;03;55;22 - 00;03;58;22
hotels along that kind of area
are really, really expensive.
00;03;58;28 - 00;04;01;11
So you can go off
and go and explore for the day,
00;04;01;11 - 00;04;04;04
then get back onto the ship in the evening
and then all your food
00;04;04;04 - 00;04;08;12
and that can still sort of be
included as okay and lasting definitely
00;04;08;16 - 00;04;12;11
by no means
least Is virgin voyages a virgin voyages.
00;04;12;14 - 00;04;15;19
Quite new to the game
and they are an adult only cruise line.
00;04;15;21 - 00;04;16;11
We're talking
00;04;16;11 - 00;04;20;15
all about the different cruise lines
including virgin voyages a bit later on.
00;04;20;16 - 00;04;23;11
So what's the best way of doing it?
00;04;23;11 - 00;04;27;18
Land first see, first sea, first, land
first, or then have a way of doing it.
00;04;27;25 - 00;04;29;16
Well,
00;04;29;16 - 00;04;32;16
personally,
I think it comes down to your expectations
00;04;32;16 - 00;04;35;25
and what you want to do
and which Christine and what you can be
00;04;35;26 - 00;04;38;14
the moisture in the land. So
00;04;38;17 - 00;04;41;12
from a personal point of view,
which is what we so recommend to
00;04;41;12 - 00;04;46;18
our clients is we say do land first
and then see afterwards.
00;04;46;20 - 00;04;49;13
She reasons for this. Okay.
00;04;49;13 - 00;04;53;23
If you all could do the land, first
one gets to use the time difference.
00;04;53;24 - 00;04;54;15
Okay.
00;04;54;15 - 00;04;57;15
Most people that we book are from the UK,
00;04;57;18 - 00;05;01;25
so you know,
they have a nine hour flight to get there.
00;05;01;27 - 00;05;06;01
And then you've got nine hour flight
to get home as well.
00;05;06;03 - 00;05;10;14
You also got to account for the
the jetlag full time difference.
00;05;10;16 - 00;05;13;13
That is something that's quite
become a big,
00;05;13;13 - 00;05;16;05
if you will handle before
you will probably waking up
00;05;16;05 - 00;05;19;14
about 4:00 in the morning,
maybe 4:00, if you're lucky.
00;05;19;16 - 00;05;24;09
So if you're doing that, you can't really
kind of like to the cruise.
00;05;24;12 - 00;05;27;26
When you lands,
you will land at between sort of six,
00;05;27;26 - 00;05;30;20
seven, eight, 9:00 in the evening
sometimes, but only if you
00;05;30;20 - 00;05;34;26
the five endings, for example,
they land before for what, the afternoon
00;05;34;28 - 00;05;37;27
will you cruises into the next day
because you can't land on the same day.
00;05;37;27 - 00;05;40;26
It's like cruise in the same day,
which means you're going to have to go
00;05;40;26 - 00;05;43;26
from from Orlando International Airport
00;05;43;26 - 00;05;48;24
out to Cape Canaveral or lands
at Miami Airport and then probably
00;05;48;24 - 00;05;52;21
stay there, stay for a night
and then go on the cruise the next day.
00;05;52;26 - 00;05;55;15
So you probably will even be
getting on the ship until 1:00.
00;05;55;15 - 00;05;59;08
So that means that you've say, for
example, you do to is ending its flights.
00;05;59;11 - 00;05;59;27
You land at
00;05;59;27 - 00;06;04;08
4:00 in the afternoon,
you're at Cape Canaveral
00;06;04;08 - 00;06;08;27
by six, 630, depending on
how long it takes you to to get there.
00;06;08;27 - 00;06;11;01
And immigration that cost
00;06;11;01 - 00;06;14;06
you then got the evening
sorted out and relax that kind of stuff.
00;06;14;09 - 00;06;16;02
But then
what are you going to do the next day?
00;06;16;02 - 00;06;18;23
You then kind of like going on to the
you go on to the first show and again,
00;06;18;23 - 00;06;22;05
you will be up at 4:00 in the morning
and the rest must do around the cruise
00;06;22;05 - 00;06;25;05
terminal area. So in the space coast.
00;06;25;11 - 00;06;27;29
So it's a bit of a kind of a wasted day.
00;06;27;29 - 00;06;30;11
Plus, also, the crew had worn axes.
00;06;30;11 - 00;06;33;11
So when you want to do that off,
you've had to turn off the theme park.
00;06;33;12 - 00;06;35;27
So we recommend is you theme parks first.
00;06;35;27 - 00;06;36;19
So you go into.
00;06;36;19 - 00;06;40;21
So, for example, Walt Disney World first,
you can then go before your morning
00;06;40;22 - 00;06;44;05
or do rope job in the stuff,
tie yourself out because
00;06;44;08 - 00;06;46;23
go into Walt Disney World,
even though you might have been there
00;06;46;23 - 00;06;51;00
loads of times,
it's still pretty exhausting to go and do.
00;06;51;03 - 00;06;52;25
It's a lot of walking around.
00;06;52;25 - 00;06;55;02
It's a lot of standing in queues.
00;06;55;02 - 00;06;58;23
Plus also from a mindset point of view,
when you're on board a cruise ship,
00;06;58;26 - 00;07;01;04
you really pay for your food,
the fruits included.
00;07;01;04 - 00;07;03;00
So there's nothing to pay even here.
00;07;03;00 - 00;07;05;05
The Disney dining plan washable
Disney World,
00;07;05;05 - 00;07;08;28
you still got to go up
and go and tap your magic band
00;07;09;01 - 00;07;11;24
to pay
for it and then pay your gratuities.
00;07;11;24 - 00;07;14;12
Until now, imagine
00;07;14;12 - 00;07;17;18
going free nights four nights
and having as much food as you want
00;07;17;21 - 00;07;22;08
on board the cruise ship and then go
catch them to pay for something like okay,
00;07;22;10 - 00;07;23;13
characters as well.
00;07;23;13 - 00;07;27;02
If you're going to go to the Disney
theme parks and queue for carrots,
00;07;27;07 - 00;07;30;16
you might queue up for an hour
to go meet a princess
00;07;30;18 - 00;07;32;02
when you're on the cruise ship.
00;07;32;02 - 00;07;36;19
When they do, for example, the princesses,
they generally use a come back time.
00;07;36;20 - 00;07;39;03
So you get a reservation
and then you come back and so on.
00;07;39;03 - 00;07;40;26
You might queue for about 5 minutes
00;07;40;26 - 00;07;44;10
and then you're going to be free
or full princess at the same time.
00;07;44;13 - 00;07;48;09
So if you in 15 minutes
you could call me free for princesses,
00;07;48;11 - 00;07;52;24
whereas an hour in Orlando
you made me one, maybe two.
00;07;52;26 - 00;07;58;09
So again, if you do the cruise ship
first or queuing for so long, like
00;07;58;11 - 00;08;00;20
a cruise ship you just don't keep
things is pretty simple.
00;08;00;20 - 00;08;02;10
Apart
from maybe getting on and off the ship,
00;08;02;10 - 00;08;04;10
depending on
what time you get off the ship,
00;08;04;10 - 00;08;07;10
the the getting better
at managing the crowds.
00;08;07;16 - 00;08;09;02
You don't queue for things.
00;08;09;02 - 00;08;11;05
The thing pops can be absolutely rammed.
00;08;11;05 - 00;08;13;19
You know,
he can hold about 100,000 people.
00;08;13;19 - 00;08;15;25
So you got a really busy day.
00;08;15;25 - 00;08;19;02
It's going to be really,
really, really, really, really busy.
00;08;19;04 - 00;08;21;07
Cruise ships aren't as busy as that.
00;08;21;07 - 00;08;24;09
So majority of the flights that come from
the UK can be landing
00;08;24;09 - 00;08;27;09
at four, five, six, 7:00 in the evening.
00;08;27;11 - 00;08;32;20
And then they're also you mean leaving
around six, seven, maybe eight at night.
00;08;32;22 - 00;08;35;12
So the trouble is that when you've done
00;08;35;12 - 00;08;38;28
your cruise, if you're doing land
first and sea afterwards,
00;08;39;00 - 00;08;40;19
you're going to have this kind of problem
00;08;40;19 - 00;08;43;14
of if you're going to get off the
ship at 10:00 in the morning,
00;08;43;17 - 00;08;44;15
then from 10:00 in
00;08;44;15 - 00;08;47;15
the morning,
you can then go to the airport,
00;08;47;18 - 00;08;51;17
sea off, going to some Miami airport
or Orlando airport.
00;08;51;19 - 00;08;56;11
And then from there, you're going to be
waiting around for your flight.
00;08;56;13 - 00;09;00;21
And Orlando and Miami airports of Nice,
00;09;00;23 - 00;09;04;03
but they're not eight, 9 hours
hanging around doing absolutely nothing.
00;09;04;03 - 00;09;05;02
Kind of nice.
00;09;05;02 - 00;09;07;03
So there are a few things you can do.
00;09;07;03 - 00;09;11;00
For example, if you have done your tickets
correctly, what you can do
00;09;11;00 - 00;09;14;06
is with the 14 day tickets for for Disney
00;09;14;12 - 00;09;17;06
actually work over an 18 day period.
00;09;17;06 - 00;09;22;08
So the 14 days in the park,
but you got a 18 day window to use them.
00;09;22;10 - 00;09;25;23
So if you use a monday on your second day,
00;09;25;28 - 00;09;28;23
you land on,
00;09;28;23 - 00;09;33;29
go into the theme parks
is then go and take off those days.
00;09;34;01 - 00;09;35;28
Hopefully if you for example,
00;09;35;28 - 00;09;40;02
if you use anything about Disney,
about for ten days,
00;09;40;04 - 00;09;43;23
you then get that time at the end
to go and use
00;09;43;23 - 00;09;46;23
an extra day in the park so you can
then head straight to Walt Disney World,
00;09;47;00 - 00;09;52;05
go to in the possible Walt Parks
and then go to the airport afterwards.
00;09;52;08 - 00;09;54;00
So you can do that if you wanted to.
00;09;54;00 - 00;09;55;01
Likewise should be universal.
00;09;55;01 - 00;09;58;08
So they have a 14 day ticket for the UK
market
00;09;58;08 - 00;10;01;17
14 days from the day you use it.
00;10;01;19 - 00;10;06;08
So if, for example, your state of things
up and your state off sites.
00;10;06;09 - 00;10;10;16
Now most people that we booked do
stay on site, 85% of people stay on site.
00;10;10;19 - 00;10;13;13
But for people who stay offsite,
maybe staying in the villa,
00;10;13;13 - 00;10;16;13
maybe you're staying in
apartment or another hotel.
00;10;16;15 - 00;10;17;19
The day that you start
00;10;17;19 - 00;10;21;19
using that universal
Orlando ticket is when that 14 day starts.
00;10;21;20 - 00;10;25;23
So if you want to go another two weeks
today, redo in ten months beforehand
00;10;25;23 - 00;10;30;15
and a four night cruise
if you haven't it, that universal ticket,
00;10;30;17 - 00;10;32;24
as always, have to use it
for the first couple of days.
00;10;32;24 - 00;10;35;08
You actually can go
and use it in the last day
00;10;35;08 - 00;10;38;28
and then go to the airport afterwards,
00;10;39;00 - 00;10;42;00
dump the bag somewhere,
go drop the bags off by the theme park
00;10;42;06 - 00;10;44;09
and then go to the airport
afterwards as well.
00;10;44;09 - 00;10;46;09
That's a really good
if you got a later flight,
00;10;46;09 - 00;10;50;13
if you got a 5:00 flight,
you kind of maybe cutting it a bit fine.
00;10;50;16 - 00;10;53;13
You probably not going to get
a huge amount of times in the feedbacks.
00;10;53;13 - 00;10;58;28
That's why actually the absolute
best way of doing it is to to land.
00;10;59;01 - 00;11;02;28
See that now if you're a bit of a budget,
00;11;02;28 - 00;11;07;21
the best way of doing
this is to do your theme parks first
00;11;07;24 - 00;11;10;26
the cruise and then one night
00;11;10;26 - 00;11;15;14
or maybe two nights on the space Coast,
this next to the Kennedy Space Center.
00;11;15;20 - 00;11;16;13
Okay.
00;11;16;13 - 00;11;19;03
This is actually one of the best places
to actually go inland.
00;11;19;03 - 00;11;20;18
I absolutely love it there.
00;11;20;18 - 00;11;25;04
So what you can do is you can be
off the ship by 9:00 in the morning,
00;11;25;06 - 00;11;26;01
pick up a car.
00;11;26;01 - 00;11;27;15
This is the time to pick up a car.
00;11;27;15 - 00;11;31;11
You don't need a car, Yolanda,
But you do need a car to do this.
00;11;31;11 - 00;11;33;17
You don't pick up a car.
00;11;33;17 - 00;11;35;25
You drive straight to the space center.
00;11;35;25 - 00;11;38;19
You leave all your luggage in the car.
00;11;38;19 - 00;11;41;09
Then afterwards, when you're done there
00;11;41;09 - 00;11;44;19
for five, 6:00 in the evening,
you then drive to your hotel.
00;11;44;26 - 00;11;49;09
I've room on the coast or you drive
to Orlando and what you want to do.
00;11;49;12 - 00;11;52;17
So what you could do is then go
and do your one night in Orlando.
00;11;52;17 - 00;11;53;27
And if you got Portuguese
00;11;53;27 - 00;11;56;07
left on the last day,
you can get anything booked as well.
00;11;56;07 - 00;11;59;16
If not just total
the space coast, you're on a beach.
00;11;59;16 - 00;12;01;16
So the next day when you wake up
00;12;01;16 - 00;12;05;21
just the beach for a couple of hours
and then drive to the airport
00;12;05;24 - 00;12;08;00
and dump the car
and then you get on your flight.
00;12;08;00 - 00;12;10;06
So sounds like a really nice space
engine holidays.
00;12;10;06 - 00;12;11;17
You don't do cruise.
00;12;11;17 - 00;12;15;08
You go to the Kennedy Space Center
and then you have a day at the beach
00;12;15;10 - 00;12;16;14
after you finish at the beach.
00;12;16;14 - 00;12;18;03
Identify Practices UK.
00;12;18;03 - 00;12;19;18
What a great way of doing it.
00;12;19;18 - 00;12;23;25
If you've got a bit more money
and a bit more a bit more time as well,
00;12;23;28 - 00;12;27;23
then what I suggest is doing
one last thing in staying on site
00;12;27;23 - 00;12;31;13
if you can possibly at one
lot of parks cruise and then the second
00;12;31;14 - 00;12;38;03
the so you might do what Disney World
Cruise Universal Orlando afterwards.
00;12;38;05 - 00;12;39;14
This is a great way
00;12;39;14 - 00;12;41;13
especially if you staying on site
because of the extra benefits
00;12;41;13 - 00;12;45;09
you get to stay in the airfield park
entry transportation kind of stuff.
00;12;45;11 - 00;12;49;04
Brady is worth looking at staying on site,
especially universal.
00;12;49;06 - 00;12;52;20
The endless summer, for example,
is not that much more in the staying
00;12;52;20 - 00;12;55;04
at least National Drive
and the benefits would really outweigh.
00;12;55;04 - 00;12;59;12
It's a really great way
of going to go into Universal.
00;12;59;19 - 00;13;03;02
So if possible,
this is the best way of doing it.
00;13;03;05 - 00;13;06;16
So land so Walt Disney World Cruise
00;13;06;18 - 00;13;11;05
then universal at the ends
so think about that you land in the plane
00;13;11;07 - 00;13;15;08
and then you go to Disney On the day
you check out of Disney,
00;13;15;09 - 00;13;18;25
you already have to check out
until you know to leave the kind of area.
00;13;18;25 - 00;13;20;27
And so and that's it.
00;13;20;27 - 00;13;23;24
Then he gets the cruise ship
go and check in country You cruise
00;13;23;24 - 00;13;27;20
if you're off the ship at DIFC
in the morning, you can be back in Orlando
00;13;27;23 - 00;13;30;13
by no later than 1030,
which means you can be
00;13;30;13 - 00;13;33;18
in the theme park realistically by 11:00.
00;13;33;21 - 00;13;38;23
And then you've got three, four nights
at the end to go to explore whichever
00;13;38;25 - 00;13;39;11
theme park.
00;13;39;11 - 00;13;42;11
So you could even go back to the same park
if you wanted to.
00;13;42;16 - 00;13;45;05
But recommend doing that
if you stay at Disney,
00;13;45;05 - 00;13;49;09
if you have the free dining credit offered
because it messes up the office
00;13;49;09 - 00;13;52;05
and so you wouldn't actually
get any dining credit over the next one.
00;13;52;05 - 00;13;55;26
So that's why we could recommend doing
Disney and Universal do them separately.
00;13;55;26 - 00;13;59;22
Also, the miles apart from each other,
it costs a fortune in taxes
00;13;59;22 - 00;14;02;02
to get between the two of them
00;14;02;04 - 00;14;04;29
to stay on site every event or close by.
00;14;04;29 - 00;14;10;09
At least don't try and go to Universal
whilst staying at Disney's ABC.
00;14;10;09 - 00;14;10;25
Not worth it.
00;14;10;25 - 00;14;13;13
That's all.
That is the absolute best way of doing it.
00;14;13;13 - 00;14;15;27
It's a savings if you're going to go down
to Miami as well.
00;14;15;27 - 00;14;18;28
So what you could do is that you do
your theme
00;14;18;28 - 00;14;21;28
parks first, fly down to Miami,
00;14;22;04 - 00;14;26;16
then from Miami, you go into,
you cruise, then they come back
00;14;26;19 - 00;14;30;24
and then you might do two free
couple of nights in the Miami area.
00;14;30;29 - 00;14;33;18
You go to the beach,
you chill out and relax.
00;14;33;18 - 00;14;35;28
You don't see theme parks,
all this or tiring stuff.
00;14;35;28 - 00;14;37;07
First relax.
00;14;37;07 - 00;14;39;01
Then you cruise
and you go to the beach as well.
00;14;39;01 - 00;14;40;21
And you might also spend
some time at Miami.
00;14;40;21 - 00;14;42;07
Or you could
00;14;42;07 - 00;14;46;18
some people did fly down to Miami,
decreased on their flight back to Orlando,
00;14;46;25 - 00;14;49;27
and then do some more theme parks out
there as well as you can do
00;14;49;27 - 00;14;53;02
a miami cruise
in the middle of your Orlando trip.
00;14;53;05 - 00;14;55;17
Don't think that you have
to just go from Port Canaveral.
00;14;55;17 - 00;14;59;05
You can fly down and back up as well
and we can help with those flights.
00;14;59;05 - 00;15;02;03
Okay. Speak to one of our travel experts,
maybe out to help.
00;15;02;03 - 00;15;05;15
So to a little bit
about each of the different cruise lines,
00;15;05;17 - 00;15;08;04
Disney is the one that's
probably in the spring to mind the most
00;15;08;04 - 00;15;11;17
when you think about doing it
with a Walt Disney World holiday.
00;15;11;19 - 00;15;15;02
And if you can afford it because Disney
tends to be the most expensive,
00;15;15;09 - 00;15;19;20
that this is the one to go for,
this is great for younger kids
00;15;19;20 - 00;15;21;04
and they want to go meet the characters
00;15;21;04 - 00;15;24;17
and bother them to see them
while you're in the theme parks to it,
00;15;24;20 - 00;15;28;07
whilst you're on the cruise
and with food included.
00;15;28;07 - 00;15;31;07
So you can do the rotation
dining shift on a free night
00;15;31;10 - 00;15;34;17
cruise, you'll go to each of the three
restaurants.
00;15;34;19 - 00;15;37;06
The crew will go around with you as well.
00;15;37;06 - 00;15;40;05
You should really great
because they then get to know you.
00;15;40;13 - 00;15;43;19
So you have the same service
every single night whilst you're on the
00;15;43;20 - 00;15;48;22
cruise ship and you will go to Castaway,
which is Disney's own private island.
00;15;48;24 - 00;15;49;27
Pretty cold, isn't it?
00;15;49;27 - 00;15;52;06
You know, not a lot people have their own
private islands.
00;15;52;06 - 00;15;52;25
You get started.
00;15;52;25 - 00;15;53;18
Just things private.
00;15;53;18 - 00;15;56;03
I like wish
it could be Mickey Mouse on there.
00;15;56;03 - 00;15;58;24
There's lots of things to do in the water.
Chin out. Relax.
00;15;58;24 - 00;16;01;00
Where you can go to the beaches as well
if you wanted to.
00;16;01;00 - 00;16;05;08
So it's a great way of relaxing
after a year, the more intense
00;16;05;10 - 00;16;07;26
time that you get inside the theme parks.
00;16;07;26 - 00;16;09;26
Next is Rio, Caribbean.
00;16;09;26 - 00;16;14;21
Royal Caribbean is the become of the big
one that a lot of people know.
00;16;14;23 - 00;16;18;04
And they have these massive, massive,
massive ships,
00;16;18;04 - 00;16;21;04
the ones with the way right
as the surfboards at the back.
00;16;21;05 - 00;16;22;02
Chances are it's
00;16;22;02 - 00;16;25;08
the families who go on these cruises
actually don't actually go onto them.
00;16;25;08 - 00;16;28;20
The big sort of stuff is come
find all that to look at.
00;16;28;22 - 00;16;31;20
They are already well known
for the family of friends.
00;16;31;20 - 00;16;33;12
So they have amazing kids clubs.
00;16;33;12 - 00;16;36;03
They have amazing sets
for the all the families.
00;16;36;03 - 00;16;39;15
Now, great thing about all the cruise
lines is when you have a kids club
00;16;39;18 - 00;16;42;18
is that you put the kids into the kids
school because you have been with the
00;16;42;18 - 00;16;47;02
the 24 hour day
while Sherri Disney or maybe Universal.
00;16;47;04 - 00;16;50;03
Now this is your time to let the kids
go do their own thing.
00;16;50;03 - 00;16;51;10
You go and do your own thing.
00;16;51;10 - 00;16;53;14
See, it's
the kids got the well looked after.
00;16;53;14 - 00;16;55;29
They probably will actually
leave the kids up.
00;16;55;29 - 00;16;58;14
Then you can just relax and drink
00;16;58;14 - 00;17;01;29
to whatever Royal Caribbean
and go really great kids clubs.
00;17;02;06 - 00;17;03;26
And so it's a Norwegian cruise
00;17;03;26 - 00;17;05;20
on Norwegian Cruise
Line is one of those cruise liners
00;17;05;20 - 00;17;08;20
that a lot of people
haven't really heard of. NCL
00;17;08;23 - 00;17;10;11
They are really, really good.
00;17;10;11 - 00;17;15;03
They offer, you know, a lot of fun things
that you would get on the cruise lines.
00;17;15;09 - 00;17;18;25
It ships in three smaller
than the Royal Caribbean cruise ships.
00;17;18;27 - 00;17;20;05
Lots of stuff includes.
00;17;20;05 - 00;17;22;28
So you eat buffets
and you got you sort of main dining
00;17;22;28 - 00;17;24;26
and you could also deal with free sea.
00;17;24;26 - 00;17;27;17
The freight sea is an extra charge
00;17;27;17 - 00;17;30;07
and you pay a little bit more
and that's going to increase.
00;17;30;07 - 00;17;34;06
You open bar
for the first two people in the cabin.
00;17;34;09 - 00;17;36;23
So that means you can have pretty much
any drinks you'd like.
00;17;36;23 - 00;17;39;20
It's about $15 charity dining.
00;17;39;20 - 00;17;42;07
You also get things like a wi
00;17;42;07 - 00;17;46;18
fi package as some credit towards
an excursion luxury.
00;17;46;18 - 00;17;49;12
One of the poops as well.
So lots included.
00;17;49;12 - 00;17;51;25
Plus there's more than two of you
in the cabin.
00;17;51;25 - 00;17;55;16
The extra people only pay the pope
taxes and charges.
00;17;55;19 - 00;17;57;16
Not the not the Chris there.
00;17;57;16 - 00;18;00;06
So there pay impressive enough
to be in that cabin with you.
00;18;00;06 - 00;18;03;26
Now, the downside of it is that they don't
get the specialty dining
00;18;03;28 - 00;18;06;07
and the don't get the drinks
package included.
00;18;06;07 - 00;18;10;28
So sometimes it's better to have
two separate rooms, indicate two rooms.
00;18;10;28 - 00;18;12;23
You've got young kids
00;18;12;23 - 00;18;15;19
because then everyone
if it's a family of four, two people
00;18;15;19 - 00;18;18;24
in the first cabin tunes,
a companion will get that if you can
00;18;18;24 - 00;18;21;18
was buy drinks package for the
for the younger ones as well
00;18;21;18 - 00;18;23;02
or you could just pay as you go to read.
00;18;23;02 - 00;18;26;03
So it depends on how much that kids tends
to get this sort of
00;18;26;03 - 00;18;29;04
like two four years
old, four years old for another drink.
00;18;29;04 - 00;18;31;27
A huge amount, probably not worth
buying a drinks package for.
00;18;31;27 - 00;18;33;16
A next is MSE.
00;18;33;16 - 00;18;35;25
MSE is Italian cruise line,
00;18;35;25 - 00;18;39;12
so they do tend to cater more
for different nationalities.
00;18;39;18 - 00;18;44;01
So this is the one where it's not just
going to be English speakers on board,
00;18;44;03 - 00;18;44;24
it's going to have a
00;18;44;24 - 00;18;50;00
lot of Italian and French and German
as the food is a bit different
00;18;50;00 - 00;18;54;06
because it has to cater for lots
of different nationalities was sampled.
00;18;54;09 - 00;18;57;09
They tend to be a bit cheaper then,
so they have a cruise lines
00;18;57;09 - 00;19;00;10
and nice ships and nice itineraries.
00;19;00;10 - 00;19;03;01
But the same probably the thing
00;19;03;01 - 00;19;06;22
that's not quite as good
as some of the other cruise lines.
00;19;06;25 - 00;19;11;21
Carnival is the last one
we talk about, and Carnival
00;19;11;23 - 00;19;15;11
has a bit of a reputation of having
just party cruises, and that's not true.
00;19;15;11 - 00;19;18;12
It's so raw, a few party cruises
and we can help you sort of
00;19;18;12 - 00;19;21;05
weed out those ones who don't want to be
on that kind of stuff.
00;19;21;05 - 00;19;22;29
Again, the fantastic ships.
00;19;22;29 - 00;19;26;01
So the newer ships have got all the water
parts on bottles like you can
00;19;26;01 - 00;19;30;06
they get on NCL
when on Disney and Royal Caribbean
00;19;30;09 - 00;19;32;05
and they've got some really great
itineraries.
00;19;32;05 - 00;19;37;06
My thing is to the rarity,
they are much cheaper than
00;19;37;08 - 00;19;38;15
a Disney cruise.
00;19;38;15 - 00;19;41;01
So if you do one of these relaxation
of being but your budget
00;19;41;01 - 00;19;44;22
doesn't stretch to a Disney cruise
carnival, NCL
00;19;44;24 - 00;19;48;13
really great alternatives to you
so you can change things up.
00;19;48;15 - 00;19;51;00
Don't have to just keep come with
the Disney fee
00;19;51;00 - 00;19;53;03
have been to Walt Disney World
for however long
00;19;53;03 - 00;19;55;23
it takes you outside that Disney bubble
just a little bit.
00;19;55;23 - 00;19;56;23
Okay.
00;19;56;23 - 00;19;59;15
If you are going from Miami
00;19;59;15 - 00;20;02;17
and you always have a choice
of Celebrity Cruises, which is fantastic
00;20;02;24 - 00;20;06;05
between the Florida Keys
and they've got Virgin voyages
00;20;06;09 - 00;20;09;23
and this is an adult only cruise,
one of my favorite cruise lines.
00;20;09;25 - 00;20;13;12
The great thing I love about
Virgin Cruises is they take them things
00;20;13;12 - 00;20;15;16
I don't like about the other cruise lines.
00;20;15;16 - 00;20;16;29
Typically, there's no tips.
00;20;16;29 - 00;20;18;16
They just pay the crew
00;20;18;16 - 00;20;21;26
an actual proper way to start with
so they don't have to rely on tips.
00;20;21;29 - 00;20;22;28
Soft drinks.
00;20;22;28 - 00;20;28;02
Soft drinks are included not just in the
restaurants, but also at the bars as well.
00;20;28;02 - 00;20;31;19
So, you know, if you just treat sort of
soft drinks, absolutely fun.
00;20;31;19 - 00;20;34;19
Okay, why fight? Why flies included?
00;20;34;19 - 00;20;36;09
Unlimited Wi-Fi is included.
00;20;36;09 - 00;20;41;01
So you will be connected if you want to
be, as opposed to with the cruise lines.
00;20;41;01 - 00;20;43;27
You have to pay to use the Wi-Fi.
00;20;43;27 - 00;20;46;03
So the things I really don't like
about Cruise Lines
00;20;46;03 - 00;20;49;25
Virgin have eliminated
pretty good atmosphere on board.
00;20;49;25 - 00;20;51;03
It's for the young at heart.
00;20;51;03 - 00;20;54;13
So when I was on board,
there were people on there from sort of
00;20;54;21 - 00;20;57;20
21 was AC 85 years old.
00;20;57;27 - 00;21;00;22
Everyone was having a great time,
pretty at restaurants
00;21;00;22 - 00;21;05;17
with friends at Gum Bay,
which is the Korean barbecue Barbecue pit.
00;21;05;19 - 00;21;09;08
And let's go to the wake,
which is the steak house on board
00;21;09;09 - 00;21;11;19
the Mexican Test kitchen.
00;21;11;19 - 00;21;16;17
And a lot of the menus are actually
created by Michelin star chefs as well.
00;21;16;17 - 00;21;19;14
So it's brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
00;21;19;14 - 00;21;22;20
Really modern kind of ship as well.
00;21;22;22 - 00;21;23;09
Okay.
00;21;23;09 - 00;21;28;10
As we explained, the best games,
if your budget allows you to do land, sea
00;21;28;12 - 00;21;33;01
and then lands again, if not,
there are different ways of doing it.
00;21;33;01 - 00;21;36;08
But the main thing is to make sure
that you have allowed yourself enough
00;21;36;08 - 00;21;39;13
time to get those flights
and allow for anything to go.
00;21;39;16 - 00;21;42;16
Okay, So if you need any help booking
00;21;42;16 - 00;21;45;16
