Creator's Key Takeaways
We found an incredible alternative to flying, the HV St. Mallow, Britney Berry's newest ferry, and it completely changed the way we think about travel in Europe.
We booked a private cabin, mostly so we'd have a spot to stash our luggage and just relax. But somehow we ended up with this massive six birth cabin, and it was huge.
The food was surprisingly great with a wide variety from pastries to full meals.
The staff absolutely incredible. Every single person we met was friendly, upbeat, and genuinely seemed to love being there.

Thinking about how to get from France to England for your next trip or cruise? We found an incredible alternative to flying — the Saint-Malo, Brittany Ferries’ newest ferry — and it completely changed the way we think about travel in Europe. In this video, we share our full experience sailing from St. Malo, France to Portsmouth, England, including what it costs, what it’s like onboard, and why we’d absolutely do it again. From our spacious cabin with CClub access, to onboard dining, entertainment, trivia, and even a spa (yes, a spa on a ferry!), this was far more than just transportation — it was a mini cruise! If you’re planning a trip through Europe, or just curious how this ferry compares to flying or renting a car — this video will show you why this could be your new favorite way to travel. #BrittanyFerries #SaintMalo #FerryTravel #CruiseAlternatives #EuropeTravelTips #KirkToriStory ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 – Why we decided to take a ferry instead of flying 01:16 – Arriving at the port as foot passengers 04:20 – Our first impressions of Saint-Malo Brittany Ferries 04:40 – Cabin tour (our HUGE 6-berth cabin!) 05:05 – What’s included with CClub access 06:45 – Breakfast, food options, and restaurants onboard 05:15 – Onboard entertainment: trivia, contests, live music & more 07:38 – Fun finds: dog walking area, arcade, and outdoor gym! 09:25 – Staff, vibe, and atmosphere 10:00 – Why we’ll be taking more ferries across Europe 10:30 – Final thoughts and tips
