If you like cruises, Viking Ocean Cruises should definitely be a bucket list trip. We can not say enough great things about how memorable our Viking cruise was.
While we have so many special moments from our cruise and are already planning our next, there is one thing that surprised us and was a bit of a disappointment.

I decided to see how todayโs travellers spending their own hard-earned money river cruising in Europe are rating the lines on review sites. I quickly discovered the rankings were not as I expected them to be and were different to those of the magazines and sites. So, I let you in on the top 8 traveller best rated river cruise lines right now, and why.

Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady Cruise Food Review | Best Restaurants & Must-Try Dishes!
Hello lovelies!
If thereโs one thing that truly blew me away on my Virgin Voyages Scarlet Lady Caribbean cruise (January 2025)โit was the food! From fresh, high-quality ingredients to incredible restaurant experiences, this cruise delivered on every level. It was so impressive that I had to dedicate an entire vlog to it!
In this video, Iโm sharing my honest reviews of the best restaurants onboard, including my top food highlights, what Iโd recommend ordering, and some useful tips to help you make the most of your dining experience. Whether youโre looking for healthy options, indulgent treats, or unique foodie experiences, this cruise has it all!
Hereโs what you can expect:
๐ฝ๏ธ The Galley โ A casual, open-all-day dining hall with everything from sushi and tacos to omelettes, bagels, and full English breakfasts.
๐ฅฉ The Wake โ A fancy steakhouse where we enjoyed an elegant evening meal AND a delicious brunch (which I actually preferred!).
๐ Extra Virgin โ My absolute favourite! One of the best Italian meals Iโve ever hadโauthentic, fresh, and full of flavour.
๐จโ๐ณ Test Kitchen โ A unique dining experience where you can see your food being prepared. Smaller plates but big on flavourโloved the venison and chocolate dessert!
๐ฅข Razzle Dazzle โ A creative take on Chinese food. Not usually my go-to cuisine, but the fried shrimp with walnuts was amazing!
๐ฌ Final Night Treats โ A cosy movie night with fresh pizza, donuts, and cakesโbecause why not finish the trip on a sweet note?
I also share real vlog footage of us dining, so you can get a true feel for the vibe on board, plus insider tips on booking and getting the most out of your meals.
If youโre thinking about booking a Virgin Voyages cruise, or youโre just here for the food inspiration, I hope this helps! Let me know in the comments, which restaurant would you try first?

Virgin Voyages resilient lady reviews
** Note on Virgin pricing, as there can be some confusion: prices are assuming double occupancy. So if it's $2400 per cabin, that's $1200 each, on a double occupancy basis.
Keep in mind that you are paying per passenger, not per cabin even though that's how they present the pricing.
Most other Cruise lines advertise their pricing per person, but it's also assuming double occupancy.
About Virgin:
Founded by Richard Branson, Virgin Voyages takes a non-traditional approach to cruising, and has become known for breaking away from traditional cruise norms with its sleek, Instagram-worthy design, varied dining outlets, and wellness-focused features.

Norwegian Cruise Line recently welcomed @EmmaCruises aboard Norwegian Prima to share her journey in a 5-part video series. Check out part two of the series and join the conversation, below!
- - -
Iโve just disembarked a cruise on Norwegian Prima where I took a journey through food that included some seriously impressive cruise ship tech and some immersive dining experiences that I will never forget.
I even tested a few new cruise food concepts along the way that Iโve never seen before on a ship, or on land for that matter.
If you'd like to find out what the rest of the ship is like, including the spa, adult-only area, and music venues, check out my full ship tour video on my YouTube channel. YouTube.com/EmmaCruises.
To look at future cruises on Prima, check out Norwegian's website here: https://bit.ly/42kYvzZ.
When we embarked Norwegian Prima in New York City we headed straight to the biggest main dining room onboard, Hudsonโs. Hudsonโs is a complimentary restaurant meaning that everything here is included and the food is totally unlimited, Iโve been cruising with Norwegian since I was a child and I always loved going to the main dining room for lunch or dinner.
You could, in theory, eat here for every meal of the cruise but as there are lots of other options so I wouldnโt recommend just eating in one place for an entire cruise.
The restaurant has these amazing floor-to-ceiling windows that wrap right way around the sides meaning that whether youโre in a port or at sea, you always have a great view. I loved the design of the restaurant including these light fittings that I think look like butterflies that flutter slightly when the ships at sea.
The service was good, there was lots of choice on some of the biggest menus Iโve ever seen and we would end up visiting Hudsonโs again for both breakfast and dinner during the cruise. There is a second main dining room restaurant onboard too which is a great option if Hudsonโs is busy but we always picked Hudsonโs because of the amazing views and we never had to wait for a table as the restaurant is massive.
One of my favourite things about cruising with Norwegian has always been the freestyle dining, which means that there are no set dining times for the main dining rooms and you just show up to eat when youโre hungry.
As well as the included main dining room there is included food in the buffet, the local and my personal favourite the indulge food hall but more about that later.
This video is just one part of a 5 part series, so I look forward to seeing you in the next video!

Is the Virgin Voyages Splash of Romance package worth it? Weโre putting it to the test! ๐ณ๏ธ From priority boarding to spa passes, sultry sweets, and shake-for-champagne fun, we tried every perk to see if this $250 package lives up to the hype.
Our journey starts with priority boardingโgetting us on the ship in just 15 minutes (and ahead of the crowd!). That gave us early access to book classes and shows. Then, itโs on to daily cold-pressed juices (a $72 value!) and a luxurious 3-hour thermal spa session where we hit every room twice.
We also sampled the sultry aphrodisiac sweets, enjoyed shake-for-champagne service (after some tech hiccups!), and realized we missed the cocktail hourโguess weโll save that for our next sailing. ๐พ
By the end, we couldnโt help but say YES, the Splash of Romance package is totally worth it. Watch to see why this is a must-add for your next Virgin Voyage! And donโt forget to subscribe for more cruise reviews, tips, and travel inspo. ๐ขโจ

**Please Note: The Scarlet Lady has recently undergone an extensive refurbishment, referred to as Scarlet Lady 2.0. This video was filmed just prior to her time in dry dock, and therefore does not reflect the latest updates made across multiple areas of the ship. Below is a summary of the key enhancements:
Razzle Dazzle has been reimagined with a new evening concept: Lucky Lotus by Razzle Dazzle, offering a Chinese-inspired menu and intimate, lounge-style seating.
Grounds Club Too has been transformed into an upscale cocktail lounge, now featuring ambient lighting and updated, comfortable seating for a more refined guest experience.
The Aquatic Club now includes six exclusive VIP cabanas, complete with white curtains and daybeds, designed for guests seeking a more private poolside experience.
New round seating has replaced the previous triangular-style furniture around the Aquatic Club, along with standard deck chairs for improved comfort and layout.
The non-smoking casino has been expanded with the addition of new slot machines to enhance the gaming experience.
The iconic Scarlet Lady mermaid on the ship's bow has received a refreshed, stylish redesign.
Additional Updates:
New screens have been installed in B-Complex Burn + Bike.
Carpeting throughout the ship has been replaced.
The Wake Raw Bar area has been converted into additional guest seating.
I hope you enjoy the upgraded experience aboard the new Scarlet Lady 2.0.

Full disclosure: I was part of a PR trip with Viking and that means they paid for my cruise and my roundtrip airfare to and from Paris. Having said that all opinions are my own and I had no limitations or mandatory posting requirement and received no monetary compensation for making this video.
I recently went on a Viking River Cruise and in this video I'll be sharing what I loved, what I didn't love, and exactly WHO I think should go on a river cruise! Huge thanks to Viking for hosting me for this lovely 7 night Paris and the Heart of Normandy river cruise. I hope this video will help you decide if you should go on a river cruise and give you some tips and tricks to help you feel more prepared.

Royal Caribbean has some of the best and biggest cruises in the world. In this video we have a look at the top 5 best cruise ships in Royal Caribbean's fleet.
During the initial planning phases of your cruise, you're going to have to decide what cruise line is the best fit for you. Whether you are looking to splurge on luxury line Viking Cruises or want to take a budget cruise on MSC Cruises, there's the perfect cruise line for everyone.
With over 25 ships, including the largest at sea, there's no wonder that Royal Caribbean is one of the most popular mainstream cruise lines today. Their smallest Vision Class ships sail to more unique destinations across the world, whereas their massive Oasis and Icon Class vessels are destinations in and of themselves.
If you have yet to step foot on a Royal Caribbean ship, you might be wondering what the pros and cons of the cruise line are. While they certainly have a loyal following, that doesn't mean they are the right fit for everyone.

My Virgin Voyages Review is well, a bit different.
As a 51-year-old Mom, I wasn't sure how I was going to like a Virgin Cruise or how I'd fit in. I wondered if I was too old and uncool.
Here's my story...

NCL BREAKAWAY
Dining
Serving a wide variety of culinary delights to please every palate, the complimentary dining options include three main dining rooms, a help-yourself buffet and a variety of casual cafรฉs, grills and on-the-go choices. The Main Dining Rooms offer a menu that changes daily, Chef's Signature Dishes and carefully selected wine recommendations, guaranteeing a different culinary adventure with every visit.
Specialty Dining
Enjoy a night of gastronomic proportions at one of the many specialty restaurants. Find your inner foodie at Ocean Blue featuring delicious seafood eats. Bring a hearty appetite to the Brazilian steakhouse, Moderno Churrascaria. And see shrimp fly at Teppanyaki. Whether youโre dining inside or oceanside on The Waterfront, the specialty restaurants feature the tastes youโll crave.
Bars and Lounges
With so many bars and lounges to discover, finding your favorite may take a few days. Feel the energy of the pumping music and pulsing walls as you dance till the wee hours at Bliss Ultra Lounge. Grab a burger and beer anytime you like at OโSheehanโs Neighborhood Bar & Grill. Or chill out, literally, in the only ice bar at sea. Whether youโre looking to meet up with friends or make new ones, thereโs always an opportunity to mix it up.
Entertainment
When it comes to the entertainment, you wonโt believe your eyes or even your ears. Bask in the bright lights of Broadway with performances like Burn the Floor. Sing along at Howl At The Moon. Then tickle your funny bone with hilarious comedic performances.
Activities
From top to bottom and from bow to stern, Norwegian Breakaway has enough onboard activities to fill every minute of your cruise. Think youโre brave? Splash around at Aqua Park with Free Fall - the fastest waterslides at sea. Or visit our multi-level Sports Complex and walk The Plank, which extends 8 feet over the side of the ship. Wanna get lucky? Bet it all in the Casino. With so much excitement, youโll have to come back for more.
The Aqua Park & Sports Complex
Take the plunge on five multistory waterslides including Free Fall โ the fastest drop slide at sea. With three levels of action-packed activities at the Sports Complex, including the largest ropes course at sea, and The Plank, extending 8 feet over the side of the ship, thereโs something for everyone.
Mandara Spa
When you want some "me" time, look no further than Mandara Spa. Relax with a hot-stone massage, one of over 50 specialty treatments offered. At the onboard spa, treatments range from the classic to the luxurious. The pampering professionals will soothe and rejuvenate you with facials, massages, acupuncture and a full menu of services.
Syd Norman's Pour House
Get ready to rock at Syd Norman's Pour House! From gritty brick walls to live rock โnโ roll, youโll feel like youโre in one of LAโs legendary rock clubs. Sip on a Witchy Woman while chilling on The Waterfront. Quiz the bartenderโs encyclopedic knowledge of everything from Axl to Mick.
The Waterfront
Connect with the sea on The Waterfront, a quarter-mile oceanfront promenade. Discover a new restaurant or bar each day and night! Step out into the breeze at Ocean Blue, a casual take-away with seaside eats. Dine oceanside at La Cucina or simply enjoy a refreshing mojito with friends.
I tried all the Virgin Voyages food during a cruise on the Valiant Lady. Virgin Voyages dining is different than other cruise line food. I tried all of the Virgin Voyages food and dining and, in this video, give you a full review of Virgin Voyage dining options. I walk you through the main restaurants: Pink Agave, Extra Virgin, The Wake, Razzle Dazzle, Gunbae, and Test Kitchen. I also explore The Galley, Grounds Coffee, Club Social, and Lick Me 'til Ice Cream

As professional travel journalists, it is customary and normal for cruise lines to provide complimentary cruise accommodations. Some cruise lines offer additional travel services such as air and/or ground transportation, hotels, etc. It is NOT typical for cruise lines to pay journalists for a review or video. This would be considered a "sponsored" review or video and would be disclosed up-front in the review or video. CruiseReport.com does not give the cruise line(s) any guarantee that a review will be 100% positive. The cruise line has no input as to the editing of a review or video. If we experience a problem or negative situation during a cruise (that we feel is significant or of any consequence), we will report it in our written review or video.

Two of the biggest cruise lines in the industry are Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line, and it is likely that if youโve heard of one, you have probably heard of the other.
Both these cruise lines have a lot of similarities, but they also have some key differences as well. When it comes to style, amenities, and itineraries, there can be a lot to consider when choosing which cruise line to sail with for your next vacation.
Here's how these two cruise lines compare.

|| ABOUT US ||
Weโre Doug and Jamie - an aussie / american couple who love adventures, good food and exploring new places. For the past few years we have be using what weโve had to explore more of Australia - which wasnโt much. But in 2020 we upgraded Dougโs work van and it now doubles as our home on wheels part time. 2022 was the year we decided it needed a makeover so we jumped into a big van build series over the winter, ready to hit spring in our new setup! Our hope for this channel is to grow a community of likeminded people and to inspire others to jump in the drivers seat of their own life (pun intended) and create their own magic. And after surviving life in one of the most lockdown cities in the world the last few years, we are back in action ready to share our adventures!
