Creator's Key Takeaways

i've just disembarked a seven night cruise onboard royal caribbean's anthem of the seas where i did things that most people would think were impossible on cruise ships

i paid 842 pounds for this cruise which is just a little bit over a thousand dollars that was for a seven night cruise based on two people sharing a balcony cabin

the entertainment team on board were absolutely brilliant and our cruise director joff was everything that you want in a cruise director

i think norway is my favorite cruise destination of all time

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a balcony cabin for Norway to enjoy the scenery
Use the Royal Caribbean app to check menus and book shows
Arrive at least 20 minutes early for theater shows to get good seats
Buy your own funicular ticket in Bergen instead of through the cruise line to save money

YouTube Video Description

I’ve just disembarked a 7 night cruise onboard Royal Caribbean’s Anthem of The Seas where I did things that most people would think were impossible on cruise ships. I waited 3 years for this cruise and as Royal Caribbean do have a reputation for being the most exciting and the best and I wanted to find out if that was really true. Pre pandemic they averaged around 6 million guests per year, fans of Royal Caribbean are very loyal to the brand but as somebody who’s not loyal to any cruise line, I wanted to see if the entertainment, the food and the ship were as good as I’d be promised.
