YouTube Video Description

We had so many unanswered cruise questions on our last show, we decided to do another one! Join us for some cruise chat and Q&A! Friday Jan 14th 8PM UK We also let you know what cruises we'll be doing this year… We reveal our next cruise will be on P&O Iona in February, followed by Sky Princess to the Norwegian Fjords in June. Support us: Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/CruiseMonkeys Merchandise - https://store.cruisemonkeys.com/ Music: Epidemic Sounds - https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/tpb2vz/ About Us We started cruising in 2014 by doing a mini break on P&O Aurora. Making videos of our cruises and sharing our experiences has become our hobby, they may not be to everyone's tastes but they are our way of remembering the great times we've had, so please keep this in mind – we are not professionals and the complete video is shot and edited on an iPhone in our spare time. The videos are our opinions and experiences while on board. We may not be the youngest cruisers but we are trying to break the stereotype that cruising is for retired people. On a cruise you will normally find us wondering around the ship taking in the atmosphere (and working our way through the cocktails). Make sure follow us on social media, the links are below. We have sailed on P&O Cruises, Cunard Line, Princess Cruises and MSC Cruises. We've booked cruises on Princess Cruises and Royal Caribbean. We'd love to try Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), Fred Olsen, Holland America (HAL), Celebrity, Virgin Voyages, Disney Cruises, Carnival Cruises, Costa, Aida, Marella and Celestyal.
