This video is an overview of the Norwegian Epic ship. It's a unique design in the Norwegian Cruise Line fleet - and some say it's because it wasn't as popular as some of the other ship layouts.

Was there a fee to park at the ferry station?
interesting mix of pluses and minuses i have to admit i think the crowds would be really off putting for me the place looks packed! although the food options do look really good!
I'm just stunned you didn't mention Frank Lloyd Wrights famous architecture home called the Martin House in Buffalo. Just. Stunned.
This was a great rundown on the pros and cons of this ship. I remember that bathroom during your cabin tour which is definitely odd and a major con for me unless I’m traveling solo. And I wonder if the long lines are a norm or what. That can definitely put slight damper on the day waiting in a queue.
Sister , I have only half day time to see Santa Monica in forenoon . What all and how these r to b seen in what sequence ? Pl guide . From India in SF now.
My type of cruisers… Eating only the food that’s included in the fare.
Right!? No need to spend more when you already have such great options! 🤣
what a fun cruise. I really love the water park area and pool side. The food looks amazing and ambiance is so refreshing. One must really explore these cruises to have wonderful time while travelling. Your detailed review is always helpful for all the people who are planning for cruises.
Thank you for the pros and cons.we found on our last cruise on the encore the boat was at capacity and we had a lot of lines too.
What a great excursion that covers some of the best that Cozumel has to offer!
Very informative video, thank you!
Happy to share!
It's always interesting to have this kind of feedback to prepare or make decisions for a cruise. For example, I would be impatient if I had to wait several minutes each time for a drink. Thank you for this useful information.
I especially liked the breakfasts and the Asian food looked really good as well. Bit you're right. The portions are rather small... Lots of desserts! 😁
I'm goin for GTA places
My husband did too
Definitely made me hungry. I feel like this is revenge against me from all my food tours I've shared with y'all 😂. So many choices it's hard to know where to start. I also appreciate you going in depth into each place and what to expect.
What was the full price of the cruise for y'all?
We are taking the Jade on September. Hopefully, it is different than this. Our first using NCL.
It is much different. We cruised on the Jade in 2017. Bathroom situation is way better and we found things to be laid out better laid in general. Have a great cruise!
so THIS is camping :0! What a unique and awesome experience. Great review!
Wow, i'm surprised at how many different restaurants and eateries are included int he cruise. So many options to check out for sure.
Thank you. Great video. Best Bermuda guide ! ❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
We were there July 2023 and found the park beautiful and we had a very nice site, HOWEVER we have Telus and had zero internet or phone, a real pain because we were trying to organize a meeting with friends and had to leave the park to phone them. We also found a couple of Rangers rather militant in particular one young Ranger who was hiding in the bushes ready to pounce on people for the slightest noise.He was warning people for things like regular volume conversation. Yeah he was power hungry. So for us improve the internet and get rid of the little commando Ranger and it will be fine.
Hey hey, that’s me at 7:40! Glad you enjoyed the music 😊
Wow, this food tour really gave me a taste of what to expect on a Norwegian Epic cruise! Everything looks so delicious and varied. Thanks for sharing this insight into the complimentary food options.
Agree the pool deck is lovely. Food honestly looked delicious 😋 Another great review 👏
Thanks so much! I think Gogo would love the food options.
Whaaat….no “journey behind the falls” on your list. That’s one of the best activities hands down!
Great information, thanks for sharing. I am still yet to do a cruise but I can see one coming 👏
Thank you! Hope you enjoy if you do go 👏
Yay! I’m taking the Epic around the Med in August!! 😊
Hope you have a great time!
Getting hungry is right! Wow I had dinner and still had me wanting more! Good to know there is an option if someone wants a later breakfast. Ooo the Chinese restaurant I believe sounds like a wonderful experience. Good to know there isn’t a reservation there and to get there early. And did you say a crepe station! Sounds like a great dining experience on board this ship.
as always, a very informative video, thank you so much
Thanks for watching!
Wow, your video really made me hungry (and drool) with the wide array of foods, and the good thing is that they are all complimentary. All the food looks juicy and tasty and in generous portions. If I were there, I would get the chicken wings. Surely, you had a great time on the Norwegian Epic. Two thumbs up!
Oh, this food all looks so tasty!! 😄
🍿 NEW POPCORN 🍿
Your video helped me make up my mind NOT to travel on the Epic. Weird set up not for me. Thank you for your helpful observations.
It's definitely not for everyone! We still had a great trip but wouldn't go out of our way to book this ship in the future.
Thanks for the video. The bathroom design is terrible.
Happy to share! It was very odd!
Thanks for the review and great food options. There is so much to choose from on a cruise.
Wow what a choice Alan's pretzel bun looked amazing. I honestly cannot believe the choices. The size portions look absolutely huge too. I love pear and gorganzola salad it's one of my favourite. It all looks delicious 😋
I'm not one to normally consume travel content, but I decided to check your channel out after Mr. Sujano recommended your channel. Safe to say I've grown to liking the content and decided to subscribe!
Thanks so much for the support!! We appreciate it 🙌
The bathroom layout was super weird
Yes very odd... my least favourite cruise bathroom.
Hope you enjoyed our perspective on what we liked and didn't like about the Norwegian Epic. What do you think of those cabin bathrooms?
I really don't think this is the ship, probably not the line, for us. Thanks for the insight - always helpful!
The best part of cruising! Did you say brownie s’more?!?! Looks amazing!
So good!!!
will be sailing on June 8/2024, thank you for your details video !!!
Have a great time!
No Posh tour?😕
Such a beautiful and amazing place
Nice and Interesting place in Mexico. So colorful
Would have liked to see the seafood buffet 😋
There wasn't one sadly. Just some shrimp and fish occasionally.
a wee bit different since I camped there in the summers of 1966 and 1967.
Time for another trip then to experience it today!
Subscribing love this vid
Thanks so much!! 🙌
You know the water fill is spring loaded and you pull it down right ?
Yep! We figured that out 👌
LA❤❤❤❤
Thank you I’m going on this cruise soon so now I know what to get
Have a great time!
We haven't had Georgetown, Grand Cayman as a cruise port yet. Good to know there are lots of options by the port without having to do paid excursions.
