Going on this one of June 2024- this will be my 3rd cruise and I am ECSTATIC.. I feel like this is something that everyone needs to experience atleast once in their life.. so much beauty in the world I’m thankful I get to experience it
We will be on this ship in March 2023. We started out on the Oasis class ship and didn't care for the size and mega crowds. We have progressively cruised on smaller ships. This will be the smallest by far, but we are looking forward to it. Thanks for posting the tour.
We cruised on the Rhapsody in '97 when it was brand new, and we fell in love with this beautiful ship. Our favorite things were the Solarium, Viking Crown Lounge, and the Centrum. Hope to sail on her again sometime.
I love this cruise, unlike some of the other larger ships they haven’t super renovated it so it’s almost like going on a Time Capsule to the 90s/early 00s. It reminds me of cruises in my childhood and is very nostalgic. I hope I can go on it sometime
Thanks Matt! Love the "smaller" ships and hope that Royal Caribbean keep them in the fleet for a very long time to come! We will be sailing on her sister ship Vision of the Seas next week!
Was on this ship doing a Western Caribbean tour in 2002 It was so beautiful. We had a balcony suite, with full tub & shower nicely appointed. I loved the solarium area. The food was good, at midnight they did a chocolate buffet where the chefs did every kind of chocolate you can think of presented beautifully. Entertainment was great as was the disco. I know now it’s older but she was a class act then. Loved her!
The vision class is what got me into cruising, it was the bread and butter of RCCL before they kept bringing things to the next level. First with Voyager... then to Oasis... and now with ICON !
We've cruise on Rhapsody of the sea and it is a beautiful ship and it's the first one we were on that made us want to cruise a lot more and the staff is so amazing
We’ve always loved the Vision class ships, and especially Rhapsody OTS. One thing I’ve always noticed is the fact that you really do get to know people, sometimes by name, on the small ships. It’s almost cozier.
Rhapsody made her maiden voyage on May 19, 1997, making her the second oldest active Royal Caribbean ship behind Grandeur which made her maiden voyage on December 14, 1996.
Never been on the smaller class been on Oasis, Married on Navigator and going on Allure in October but I e always wanted to try one of the smaller ships , thanks for the video this ship looks beautiful ❤️
This definitely reminds me of classic Royal Caribbean ships I briefly remember taking a Royal Caribbean cruise in 2006/2007 on I think Sovereign Of The Seas (I was only 6/7 so I don’t remember everything). The design of this ship is Definitely close to what I remember. I definitely prefer the Oasis Class ships but I love the nostalgia from these older ships. I also prefer the Royal Promenade deck but seeing the atrium gives me nostalgia as well from my first Royal Caribbean ship.
I'm getting more and more excited about y upcoming cruise. Watching this made me realize 1 MUST have item to bring, I think everyone should bring. Insoles or come very comfortable shoes to wear on the ship. I can't believe I almost forgot all the walking you do on the ship and how incredibly sore my feet would be at the end as well.
I'll be on this cruise in March 2023 and I can't wait to enjoy all the different things. It would be my 2nd cruise and I'm looking to enjoying every island we visit.
@@kathyknight3821 I was lucky to be on the premier sailing of it. It was so amazing! You're going to love the ship. There's one thing you should know and have to do on it. At night, probably right before you go to bed. Go to the Solarium and go out on the outside platform there, go to the corner, and look up. I swear I could see the milky way doing it while out at sea
My only cruise, on a different line, was on a ship of about the same size; it's worth noting if you only have seen or been on the newest and largest ships, these mid-size cruise ships actually feel much larger than you realize compared to the commercials Royal Caribbean shows featuring the giant amusement park style ships.
Just booked another Southern Caribbean Cruise for 2025 and its on this ship. Sailed on the larger and newer ships but feel drawn to the smaller ones and the service is fantastic. Thanks for the review.
I was on Rhapsody last week (Rome to Athens) and had a great time. I think some of the venues were a bit understaffed compared to previous RCL cruises, but still love my cruise.
I've been on 7 cruises since Oct 25th, 3 different cruise lines, Royal, Carnival and MSC. Every ship in every cruise line is understaffed. Everyone has said the same thing; its the backlog at the offices that process work visas because of their own shortness of staff. And yet the staff that was there was utterly amazing! Certain venues had to reduce hours or some services couldn't be provided but we made do. It is getting better though. Vast improvement from October to my Alaskan Cruise last month. I'll be on the Rhapsody out of Barbados in January. I can't wait! I'm now all about sailing these classic ships as much as we can, while we can. 😀
Hi Matt, thank you for the tour of Rhapsody of the seas, I was in the CZcams live stream this evening 14th of November and appreciate you answering my question about the Panama Canal group cruise, so then I checked out the rhapsody of the seas video and thanking about the room cruise and possibly booking hopefully they have accessible cabins available, thanks again Matt
Had our honeymoon on this ship back in June. Sadly the royal suite experience was lacking but aside from that it was wonderful, I love the smaller ships.
We will be on this cruise ship this coming Oct. 27th together with a group of friends! ( Haifa- Cyprus- Greece) can't wait to experience it. Thanks for the video
@@xtr0n1c Hii I just got back home yesterday. The trip was great and yes the ship and her staff and crew were amazing. There's almost always something going on that you can attend on the ship: seminars, events, competitions etc. As for the islands we visited, they all have something different to offer and were fun overall. A tip for excursions, which you may have heard already, is that booking with the cruise line is more expensive sometimes. We went some with the ship and then some privately so it depends on what you'd prefer. The ship is smaller than others but I think that's not a bad thing because there's a better staff to passenger ratio and you'll definitely be well taken care of. Over all, it was a great trip and I'd definitely cruise with this ship/ line again.
Thanks Matt! I enjoy the older ships just as much as the new. I just ask myself what kind of experience I want this time and I consider where I am going to decide the ship also.
One thing about the older ships that I wish the newer Oasis class ships had is the unique designs the solarium pools have on the older ships. I wonder why they kind of stopped making the solarium pools have a international theme or unique design to them.
I can see this being a great Marella ship in about 5 years' time... (Marella is a British cruise line that tends to get Royal Caribbean hand-me-downs with regards to ships).
We will be there in 4 days for a 4 night cruise from Ravenna to Haifa. We are looking forward to! Thanks for the video! As we start the 1. of august, we will have to test 48 hours before sailing, but thats okay for us.
@@kwnowicki Haifa port is industrial, not a cruise port. So it's less user friendly than dedicated cruise ports. There's a lot of walking involved. If you're mobility challenged, be sure to ask for help. They had transportation at two spots to take you on the longest parts. My husband and i walked it, but if walking is difficult for you, be aware that there is transportation (golf cart type things that will take you from one spot to another). Some people complained about long lines at check in, but that wasn't our experience. But i'm sure there were very long lines due to people coming before their port arrival time. People were told that they had to hand over their carry on luggage in addition to check in luggage, but we didn't do that. We just said we couldn't be parted from our carry ons (lots of medicine that i don't ever let anyone else near). So they let us keep our carryons (backpack and rollerboards). That's all i can think of off hand. Feel free to ask any questions.
@@batshevanivylerner8582 since you mentioned to feel free asking any more questions ☺️, just thought I’d ask you about your favorite port from this sailing. We’ll be in Greece and Cyprus for 7 nights and was just wondering if your ports were similar. First time in the Mediterranean and I have no clue what the must do/see spots are for families.
@@kwnowicki In October 2022 we were on the 4 night that went to Limassol and Rhodes. We're going again in 2023, but only on the 5 night as that's the only date our kids and grandkids could all go. Otherwise, i would have booked the 7 night. We enjoyed both Limassol and Rhodes. Most people think Limassol was a waste of time, but we found it to be interesting. My husband and I like to take walking tours offered by the cruise line (unless we're with our kids, in which case we're usually babysitting on port days LOL). Anyway, in Limassol we did the walking tour from Royal. Limassol is also an industrial port, so you need to take about a 10 minute bus ride to get to the marina and old town area. Royal offers a bus shuttle for maybe 10 euro? or 5 euro? I'm not sure. So you can do it on your own, but we really enjoyed the walking tour (which included bus transportation from the ship). The tour was 3 hours long. The local guide was excellent. We started in the marina where she showed us around. Then we all stopped in an ice cream parlor where we each were given an ice cream cone (flavor of our choosing). It was included in the price of the tour. Then we walked to the old town where she showed us around. About an hour later she stopped at a little restaurant where we could have free sandwiches (i don't remember what they're called, but it was a typical greek sandwich). My husband and i didn't have one, just had a coke each, but those on the tour who ate it said it was very good. Again, included in the tour. The final stop was at a little arak maker, where we each got a free shot of arak (if you wanted it). I should add the 3 hour walking tour with free food and bus transportation from and back to the ship was only $35. A pretty good deal. The next day was Rhodes where the port is literally at the gate of the old city. You just walk off the ship and into the old town. We had also signed up for a walking tour, but no one else signed up so it was cancelled. So my husband and i walked around on our own. Old town Rhodes is lovely. We really enjoyed our walk there. After about 2 hours of walking we stopped at this charming little courtyard restaurant to have coffee and then decided to have lunch and ice cream there as well. It was just such a nice place. Later i learned that it's one of the recommended places to visit (on trip advisor etc). I don't remember the name, but i'll look for it and post it here. And that was it. Just two ports. Our cruise this year is supposed to include limassol, athens and maybe mykonos? i don't recall.
They just need ONE good water slide and a flowrider, and it will be complete. It's an old lady cruise to me...I'm a child at heart and need a little thrill while onboard for 7 days.
On August 5th the Rhapsody OTS will start cruising from the port of Haifa Israel, which will be her new home port for the next 3 months. Thank you very much for this video, which came just in time because I'm taking a cruise on her in 3 weeks.
Can you do a video on Covid recovery certificate and exactly what you need. I got covid went to my doctor and got a paper saying, I was positive and maybe positive for 90 days etc
I've only sailed on Oasis-class ships (2, specifically) when sailing with Royal Caribbean. Those ships are resorts unto themselves with *tons* to do, so for me it's hard to go with Vision-Class ships. Still, I love the idea of sailing with fewer passengers.
I was on the Rhapsody of the Seas a at the 28th October. There was a wonderful couple of dancers (I believe they were from Ukraine) . I wish to get to know more about them. Where can I find their names? I think the name of the show was "Broadway.."
Trying to decide on which cabin to book. Should I go for a midship junior suite? I've seen comments that the aft suites are prone to shaking from the vibrations of the ship engines. Also can I still purchase the Key if I book this class of cabin?
I saw article that Royal is now having Starbucks coffee as part of beverage package? When will that start? Or is it currently already being done if you haven’t started your upcoming cruise yet?
@@RoyalCaribbeanBlog oh okay cool. So on my upcoming cruise on Allure Sunday I should be able to get Starbucks at the cafe stations if I have the Deluxe drink package or refreshment package?
This seems a bit old and tired looking, more so than even some of the other smaller ships, like Radience…this just looks like it really needs a refresh
Question: We're preparing to cruise Rhapsody OTS. We've bought the 3 Night Dining Package. What / How exactly should we expect to pay in the Speciality Restaurants (Chops, Giovanni and Izumi) ?
I really wish at times that people would look at a dictionary at times before making a statement which is wrong. MDR is NOT complmentary at all which mens free anyway, it is included in the cruise fare so NOT complimentary.
Can someone let me know if a passport is needed on this type of cruise I just realized mine is expired and was hope to save some money and just renewing later
First, I'd recommend always cruising with a passport. Second, if your cruise goes from Barbados (based on your other question), yes, you need a passport.
what you say is not complimentary at all. Complimentary means fee an these items are not free they new in the cruise fare. Why don't people understand simple English.
Going on this one of June 2024- this will be my 3rd cruise and I am ECSTATIC.. I feel like this is something that everyone needs to experience atleast once in their life.. so much beauty in the world I’m thankful I get to experience it
Where did you get it for June. Last time I saw it. They had trips just until April

I took Rhapsody in 1997 or 1998. Glad to see her still sailing.
@@sariel8406 I hope we get a tour of Grandeur eventually
I love RC i went on my first ship with Oasis of the Sea and love it looking forward to this one 🎉 christmas Will be my 2nd ship❤
My wife and I started cruising with Rhapsody when It was based in Galveston in the early 2000's. Had some great times!
Never been on the smaller class been on Oasis, Married on Navigator and going on Allure in October but I e always wanted to try one of the smaller ships , thanks for the video this ship looks beautiful ❤️
We sail on her from Cyprus on the 2nd September. This video is super helpful and has made me more excited for our cruise

Rhapsody was the first cruise ship I ever boarded: A 10 day cruise around the Hawaiian Islands back in September 2001.
Great video! I did NOT realize there was SO much to offer in such a smaller ship! THANX!
Glad it was helpful!
Going April 2024 looking forward to it

I've been on her a couple of times. Very intimate and relaxing atmosphere
Thank you 😊 i am going for a cruise on Rhapsody of the seas i sptember
It helped me so much 😊
Glad it was helpful!

Looking forward to trying this one. It seems like it is similar to Jewel OTS, which we love.
Will be cruising on this beauty next month!!! ✨️

Quantum class ships, Anthem of the seas, have a beautiful enclosed Solarium.
Thanks Matt! Great video, looking toward a 2024 cruise in this baby.
I can see this being a great Marella ship in about 5 years' time... (Marella is a British cruise line that tends to get Royal Caribbean hand-me-downs with regards to ships).

Hubby and I just came back from a cruise on Rhapsody 3 days ago. She’s definitely cozy but full of charm. I wonder when was that video taken?
It must have been taken recently. The crew is still masked and the buffet looked self service.

This size up to Freedom Class ships are great. We like to CRUISE, we don’t need the gimmicks and crowds of the mega ships.
We are booked on her in September
In what date? because I am going 19 of September
Watched tour remembered some places
On August 5th the Rhapsody OTS will start cruising from the port of Haifa Israel, which will be her new home port for the next 3 months.
Thank you very much for this video, which came just in time because I'm taking a cruise on her in 3 weeks.
I’ll be doing this itinerary on this ship this summer. How was your cruise?
Can you make a vid about legend of the seas as that was the first ship I went on Royal Caribbean
This looks about the size of the two smallest Disney ships
Looking forward to my 2nd trip on Rhapsody in march 2023
How was it ?! How’s the condition of the ship ?
I was on this ship in 2003 and I can tell you the solarium had the best hot dogs I’ve ever had 🤣
Ill be there next year august 2024
Can you do a video on
Covid recovery certificate and exactly what you need.
I got covid went to my doctor and got a paper saying, I was positive and maybe positive for 90 days etc
love the video
Going in April 2024!! First time on a smaller ship! What can i expect compared to the larger ships??
Can somebody tell me if they have show every night like in Freedom of the seas? And does the windjammer have lots of options?
Yes and yes! It’s always something going on
I've only sailed on Oasis-class ships (2, specifically) when sailing with Royal Caribbean. Those ships are resorts unto themselves with *tons* to do, so for me it's hard to go with Vision-Class ships. Still, I love the idea of sailing with fewer passengers.
Royal needs to make brand new smaller ships. I personally wouldn't go on these old ships even if they got amplified.
I was on the Rhapsody of the Seas a at the 28th October. There was a wonderful couple of dancers (I believe they were from Ukraine) . I wish to get to know more about them. Where can I find their names? I think the name of the show was "Broadway.."
I literally just bought this ship 🛳️
the interior looks better than the brilliance of the seas
Took her to Alaska back in 10.
Trying to decide on which cabin to book. Should I go for a midship junior suite? I've seen comments that the aft suites are prone to shaking from the vibrations of the ship engines. Also can I still purchase the Key if I book this class of cabin?
Part of your description says "Take a full walk through tour of Royal Caribbean's Anthem of the Seas...", yet the video is for Rhapsody.
I saw article that Royal is now having Starbucks coffee as part of beverage package? When will that start? Or is it currently already being done if you haven’t started your upcoming cruise yet?
It started already when Wonder of the Seas debuted. So it's been in place for a few months now
@@RoyalCaribbeanBlog oh okay cool. So on my upcoming cruise on Allure Sunday I should be able to get Starbucks at the cafe stations if I have the Deluxe drink package or refreshment package?
Yes, Cafe Promenade

I went in April and tne ice cream was good but it o ly had lumpy vanilla and chocolate. It came out like dog poop but worth it.
what you say is not complimentary at all. Complimentary means fee an these items are not free they new in the cruise fare. Why don't people understand simple English.
