Nice to see the three of you back, once again, riding the waves. What an amazing trip! Thanks for including all of us. . . especially having been invited to dine at your table. Cheers, Darryl
Incredible professionally done video! Very impressive production and included everything and more that a person would want to know about the cruise. Simply excellent CONTENT!
@@FrederikClaessens I actually watched it twice! Once on my 4K PC monitor and then with my wife on our Sony HDR OLED 77 in in the living room. Simply amazing. I hope your video helps me convince her to take a Regent cruise with me. I subscribed to your excellent channel by the way. You are a true professional!!!
Another cruise video:) Love how the server skillfully deboned the fish. Somehow though it felt this ship did not have the understated aura the other ships did- Silversea Muse and Silver Moon, for example, which I loved very much. Thanks for taking us to the ports.
Wow guys. LOVE watching your material. This is one of my favourite videos that you've shared. Just watched it on TV, and came here to comment. Thank you for this amazing account of your journey. Groete van Suid-Afrika 🇿🇦
And I LOVE this response! Thank you for taking the time to do this. Groetjes vanuit België. PS: we are in love with South Africa 🤪, where are you living?
@@FrederikClaessens Really glad to hear how much you like South Africa 😍. I am a Durban boy, but have been living in Johannesburg for a while now. Best of luck with the next great video. Lekker dag verder. 😊
Next video will be about our last flight trip over South Africa with among many other places a visit to Jo'burg and landing at Durban Virgina, Umhlanga and flying the wild Coast down to Stellenbosch... Keep watching hahaha 🤣 !
Thanks for posting this! We are embarking on the same ship in two weeks. Great to see a preview. How did you get your second reservation in the specialty restaurants? Cheers
There is a small reservation desk in the hallway by the coffee connection. First thing we did upon arrival was to make extra reservations. Also we kept checking daily as we passed by the desk to see if any table had become available, it worked out another two times. Another thing is that we could only make reservations late. Only 8-8.30pm was possible. We were able to make a reservation 3 times at Chartreuse and twice at Prime7. Prime7 was quickly fully booked, even the late seatings. Too bad because Prime7 was our favorite restaurant! We would have loved to eat the Porterhouse Steak one more time but this did not work out. So my advice, go immediatly to the reservation desk and see what's available, especially for Prime7.
What a beautiful trip. All three of you look so happy. How was Regent? It would appear to be first class. Sending love from Montana, USA, and a big thank you for sharing your journey with us. 😘
Thank you for the heart warming pictures you sent me and nice comment here. About Regent. Regent is supposed to be first class. However, old bathroom (with shower in tub) and bad mattress are normally basic things so I can't call Regent first class. Queues to get a seat in the buffet restaurant I also found strange for a luxury cruise line. Everything else was excellent but not above excellent like the service at SilverSea. Not sure we'll sail again with Regent, maybe a different ship as the Mariner is the oldest of the fleet.
@@FrederikClaessens I’m sorry to hear that, but it’s very helpful feedback for me. I like SilverSeas a lot once one is on board. I’m not a fan of the booking experience.
Yes all so called luxury cruise lines have its own small issues... that's same with life, perfect doesn't exist. And each cruise from the same company will also differ in the little things depending on ship age, cruise director.... . But in general, you should be (more then) fine with both.
I was looking forward to this video because I will be cruising on the Mariner in 2 weeks, but I was disappointed that I was unable to even read the menu. I could see you guys eating, but there was just background music, no explanation whatsoever. Too bad
Excellent - thank you, love all the food descriptions!!!!!! perfect blend of video.
Thanks, glad you like it!

Yes you are right, we enjoyed this cruise a lot but prefer the atmosphere of the Silver Moon, you're very attentive!
