- We're back in the United Kingdom and in this vlog we take a London to Southampton train for something exciting! England is...⬇ More Below ✈ Our 220 page guide on how to travel non-stop - geni.us/9VHNx
Today is a travel day in England, we're taking a London to Southampton train for a cruise in a few days time. We didnt imagine being back in the United Kingdom would include a visit to Southampton - but being such a massive cruise port it does... and we're so excited!
This is the site we mentioned about booking trains and buses etc around Europe: geni.us/eurotravel
Getting to Southampton from London on the train was actually crazy simple, England really has things running smoothly in terms of public transport. Probably also helps that so many people from around the United Kingdom (and more) visit Southampton for a cruise, so there were loads of different options.
The train appeared to be the fastest and most chill though, we love being able to sit back and take it easy on a travel day.

#LondonToSouthampton #London
Are you as excited as us for the next adventures?!
- This is our go to booking site for trains and buses etc, great selection of providers as well: geni.us/eurotravel
Sapphire Princess?
Great guess!
Second time you have been "just down the street" from me, only a week in the past, again.... 😕
Okay, so you are back now. Question is, did you go see Donald Trump, Queen Elizabeth, Theresa May today? If not, you could have done. They were here, this afternoon. Also, big fireworks Saturday, if you are interested.....
@@DanegerAndStacey Right now, the ship you were on is approaching Stockholm.
We missed all of them, including the fireworks, sadly! Sometimes we have the best timing, others we seem to just miss everything!
Safe travels guys! Looking forward to seeing where you go on this cruise! 😄
Thanks team! Lots of cruise stuff to come
Soooo excited to see what the big news is!!!
The suspense must be killing you guys 🤣
I watched this out of order so I'll just say cheeky! 😉
Have fun cruising, guys!
Ooh wow.
You guys are so blessed.
I know I comment alot but your channel has got everything I was looking for in a travel channel.
The calmness,humility and flow
Super excited to see the cruise and your formal clothes... I feel like no travelers traveling with formal clothes so luckily you know about before and get ready for it! 😊 safe travels!
Exactly, right! If we met another travel couple that happened to have a suit we'd have more questions than anything 😂
Can’t wait to see where you’re going on the cruise!
Ooh!! I’ve never been but would love to visit. English countryside is on my bucket list. Can’t wait for this series guys!! Hope you are doing well.
England is a beautiful place! Most people think of it as just London but from our experiences South and the South West coast, we're blown away.
The full grown man eating a kid box was a funny segment!👍👍👍
Gotta do whatcha gotta do aye! haha
Looking forward to the cruise videos. You’re going to have a great time!
Excited to share! Have you been on a cruise? Turns out we love it.
@@DanegerAndStacey I've been on one and really enjoyed it. I wish I would have gone on one earlier in life.
Haha you guys never look homeless. Looking forward to seeing your dressier outfits on the cruise🙂
Haha maybe thats more what our parents with joke with us because of the rips in our clothes haha
I used to live in Bournemouth for 6 years and I only know the southampton airport. I've never been to Southampton city. However, you guys really took me to there....
Absolute rockstars. Get those beers in ya!!! Look forward to cruise 🚢 vids
Quite a few beers on the cruise, thats for damn sure haha
@@DanegerAndStacey expected :)
Looking forward to the series. FYI I was just in London last month, and tip, if you are there on a Sunday I highly recommend Brick Lane Market if you haven't been. It's huge, full of food vendors and interesting stuff. Dan
Cheers Dan - we've explored around that area on a food tour a year or so ago (have a video on it somewhere), cool area huh?! So interesting and random around there
We have used this train from Southampton to Waterloo after a couple of cruises. The biggest problem is where to put large suitcases. We were lucky that the train wasn't full, so we could put them on a spare seat. We will use National Express bus next time for this reason
Good point John - we noticed the same and some friends had a busy train and really struggled
Always interesting to see what travellers choose to do in your own country. Been hearing a lot of bad things about cruises in the Med recently, contributing to overtourism, including the run away cruise ship in Venice a couple of days ago
We saw a video of that as well, apparently a line snapped from the tug and the ship just cruised on into the dock! Crazy stuff. Will be sharing as much cruise stuff as we can soon :)
Can’t wait to see where you go on the cruise! Plus it’s always awkward with a suitcase when they don’t have a place you can put it! Hahha
Suburban traines around London are great!! Coming from Munich, I visited friends in Brighton and Bexley and went to London by SouthEasterner, and I was so happy with the comfortable, reliable trains there. Compared to Munich, I am so envious.
They really do have it all sorted, so fast and easy. The tube is something else all together though haha
@@DanegerAndStacey sorry, what's wrong with the tube?
looking forward to the cruise vlogs :)
Excited to share - so much fun!
Yay you've cracked 90k subscribers! Southampton (for us Brits anyway) had to mean something to do with ships/cruises etc. My first memory of it was sailing on the ferry to Le Have in France back in 1966 - my first ever trip outside of the UK. Think you're going to love the cruise - my son plays drums in cruise ship bands and he says it's a pretty awesome experience on board!
We definitely expected you, and other Brits, to click instantly when we said Southampton! 1966, damn, that must have been quite the journey back then - hope you vlogged it 🤣
@@DanegerAndStacey ha ha only 35mm in those days! We had a seriously rough crossing on the way back and my Mom was so poorly that I had to navigate us home from Southampton. I was only 11 so it was quite a task but I managed it 😁
Am always excited about your next adventures! Your avid fan from the PH 🇵🇭❤️❤️❤️
Love watching you guys make your way around our home country! We are currently travelling around South East Asia and seeing mini cheddars / M&S makes us very jealous! We are from Eastbourne which is a short drive from Southampton. Enjoy your travels on the cruise!
Thats awesome! Glad we can show you some of home while you're out there eating the best noodles in the world 🤣
Woop Woop! Love that you guys are in London - Use Trainline to book your trains in the UK - Super simple!
Yeah thats another site we scoped out a few times, seems handy! Digging being back in the UK for a bit, so different.
Daneger and Stacey awesome! If you’re in the Shoreditch area, make sure you guys head to this street food and drinks place called Dinerama - such an great spot for casual drinks and dining! Enjoy 🤙
I’ve devoured your latest NZ series as I love your country having been twice now. Mind you, I’m soooo excited to watch your Southampton blog as I live about an hour away so you’re in my world! We also cruise a lot so as soon as you said Southampton I guessed what you were up to!
No surprises what we got up to! Feels like forever ago that we could go cruising! The world has changed sooo much.
My favourite travellers are glaming it up. From Backpacking on a budget to the Caribbean and now a cruise. Enjoy!! Look forward to the vid.
I did a solo cruise a few years ago on Costa Cruise , was a bit bizarre having set meal times and an allocated table with random strangers, all couples.
I avoided the formal nights, not my thing.
Don't think I'd do a cruise again...Maybe down the Nile.
Hope you guys make it up to Scotland soon, come visit us in Glasgow.
Haha yeah formal clothes is glaming it up for us, though to be fair, don't think we've ever actually stayed in full blown back packers since we started filming. The odd tactical bunk bed has come in handy though in the PH and Athens! Can see why you'd avoid the formal nights, theyre fun and all, but if you're solo theres so many good bars and food joints why put yourself through it!
Well I love the Air B n B's you guys book.
The cruise was all inclusive Inc cocktails and Prosecco so just got drunk and went to the casino, won €140 on Roulette, didn't even know what I was doing 😂 Easiest money I've ever made. Take your winnings and walk away. Hope you guys have fun.
I went on that cruise with them like no joke you will see me in the next couple videos
Heeeey 😀
I don't pack for "fancy" on my travels either...
The one time I did (for orchestral music night in Vienna) was heavy & painful...
(2 nights use in 4 weeks)...
2 nights in 4 weeks? Eeek, thats a buy and throw away situation surely? (we did 🤣)
Hey guys, if you are still there and you have some time, check out Portsmouth (best in the evening).. It's not far from Southampton and I think you are gonna like it 👍 have a great time
They are long gone.....but will return
....
We heard awesome things about Portsmouth from the people we spoke with, shame we didnt have enough time. Like David said though, we'll be back.
Hate to break it to you but everything you said you liked about first class (minus the leg room) you get in standard for a fraction of the price. Also seat reservations on trains in the UK are free!
That didnt appear to be true with seat reservation, you cant even reserve seats on first class with these trains - even the local Londoners that came down weren't able to. We only paid £15 each to go down anyway.
I travel on that train all the time, I don't think you reserve a seat on those smaller trains, you can on the long distance ones.
The minute you mentioned Southampton, I knew it was a cruise. Pompey (Portsmouth) girl here. I don’t think people go to Southampton for much else 😉 (I’m joking!). Have a great time! 💕
Danielle Reid thank you for not calling us Sotonians scummers! 😂😂😂
Haha we were told much the same, we've been told Portsmouth is stunning though - hoping next time (dreaming maybe) that we can check it out!
HAHAHAHA the bumblebee 💛
Full scale attack mode!
@@DanegerAndStacey your reaction was priceless!
Wow I sooo love train travel! 😁 And the fun fact about South Hampton kind of let the air out of my sails! 😂😂😂 I look forward to watching you guys! 😁
Just the one word, and one H. Southampton. :)
Trains are the best aren't they? Especially in the UK, so fast and consistent. The Tube isn't necessarily amazing, but it gets you across town ASAP
Daneger and Stacey Oh yes they are the best! Hopefully if you guys ever head to Japan you’ll take advantage of their amazing train system. I think you’ll be blown away especially by the bullet train 🤩
Japan is probably THE highest on our list right now, hopefully we get there soon!
That's my local neck of the woods. Glad you didn't travel at rush hour on the train. Otherwise it would have been a lot busier and probably standing. Even in 1st class.
So we've been told! Some friends came down later the next day and were stuck crammed in by the toilet the whole trip
@@DanegerAndStacey 😂😂😂💩
Awesome work guys!! Missing some KBs though!!
Very true! We saved them all for the next one walking around Southampton 🤣
@@DanegerAndStacey haha! I'll wait to see then!!
The suitcase Stacey is wheeling through the train station, is that your "1" checked suitcase that you use? It looks hugh!! you must have a problem checking that on smaller airplanes. I have a large suitcase I can't use anymore because the sizes have been reduced since 9/11.
That's our 1, yup, it's about the perfect size actually. When it's full it sits at right on about 22kg or so
Wonder if it's the QE2 your taking? Hope you guys didn't take the cruise ship that hit the other boat in Venice 🛳️🚢
Thankfully not us that hit that other boat, or the one that hit the dock recently! Sapphire Princess was our baby.
I was watching another video about getting the train from London to Southampton and they advised not to use the train if you have luggage as there were lots of steps and no escalators or elevators. How did you manage with your luggage? Thanks
It wasn't really a concern for us, but we travel often so we're used to stairs and lifting on/in to places when needed. Don't over think it, it's all good
Ha ha ha! You show em Dane!
🤣🤣
If you'll se TITANIC, just avoid it like plauge :)
Was it the south western train?
I can come to your room as I live in Southampton your very close to the red funnel ship and near a Thailand shop
And...that doesn't sound creepy, AT ALL!!! LOL
😍❤️😍
If you’re heading north of England anywhere towards wales or Shropshire make sure you let me know! Would love to meet for a drink and show you some real UK HACKS! Try find a Lidl or Aldi for food and snacks!!! So good and cheap!!!!!!
Lidl and Aldi are regs for us, for sure, but gotta love the class of M&S! No Northern stuff at this point, but appreciate it 🤙🏼
It’s not a surprise or a slow reveal if the vlog is titled “cruise time” 🤣🤣🤣 nice one guys
Haha we changed the title a few days back to help with SEO and actually forgot that we ‘slow revealed’ in the video. Face palm. Might need a rethink 😂😂
Daneger and Stacey I wouldn’t bother my friend, it’s only because I’m watching your vlogs backwards, only just discovered your channel and subscribed. Stay safe out there, wherever there is 👍🏻
😍😍
That i call an amazing video! Drama, action, triller, the suspense! How not to love it? ♥
Yasss! Glad the slow reveal wasn't annoying haha
@@DanegerAndStacey not a single bit!
With total respect to you guys, it always amazes me how interesting you can make the mundane. And I mean this in the Best way possible.
We feel like you're taking us with you and it's compelling :)
And yes, we got caught off guard about the cruise.
This new series should be great fun! Really look forward to it.
Best wishes, James and Kim
Immersion is something we aim for, stoked to hear it comes across and you guys feel like you're coming along with us!
What hotel are you guys staying at in south hampton
I think it was called Room2 - amazing place!
How much was your Waterloo to Southampton Central train tickets?
We grabbed them for £15 each from geni.us/eurotravel seems like prices start to crank up the closer you get though.
@@DanegerAndStacey The best I could find London to Southampton central is £8.50. ☹️
You look so much like Diplo
I am Diplo. I do vlogs now 🤣
Cute couple
Thanks so much!
First one to see!!
Also Rome2Rio. But I really like and stick by Google Maps.
You are! Thanks for getting here so fast 🏆
if i knew you were in my town :/
UK looks too old and slow in transportation system for travelers
It's really not! Some of the public transport is dated, but that can be said about lots of places around the world
3:23 so much plastic....
Yup 😐
