YouTube Video Description↓

This is the 2nd episode of theCruiseView's sailing onboard the Empress of the Seas. Unlike my other videos that feature the ship and let you enjoy the experience of being at sea without interruption, theCruiseView is a guided tour of the daily happenings during the cruise. This sailing features a return to the classic days of cruising with a voyage on the Empress of the Seas as she sails a 7 night Western Caribbean itinerary. Over the course of these 7 episodes you will get to see in detail every cruise compass, every main dining room menu, and all the happenings onboard during this voyage. This series will take you into the day to day experience of being onboard the Empress of the Seas with over 1,500 guests to experience every moment of life at sea and every festivity along the way. On today's episode the Empress of the Seas makes a visit to Key West Florida. We play a few games in the evening and take a closer look at Boleros and the Viking Crown Lounge. I also got to sit down with the Cruise Director, Elvis Pinto, to learn more about the unique challenges and benefits of the Empress of the Seas.
