Creator's Key Takeaways

we made a decision we seriously regret and trust us if you do the same you'll regret it too

we wouldn't recommend this unless you're extremely fit and feeling particularly Brave

it's been a beautiful day today but it is a real trick to get up there and down

Join us on Marella Discovery in Santorini! Enjoy live entertainment, and see if the speciality restaurant Surf & Turf is worth the extra cost on this Marella Cruises sailing. (Vlog #5) Today, we visit the stunning tender port of Santorini in Greece while cruising on Marella Discovery. We explore the various options of reaching the top at Thira from the port below. And also, how to visit Oia, one of the most recognisable places in the whole of Greece! Once weโ€™re back onboard Marella Discovery, we take part in an exciting quiz and enjoy live entertainment on the Marella Cruises pool deck. We also head to the Atrium for a live performance by one of the show cast members - one of the many highlights of cruising on Marella Discovery. For dinner, we try out Surf & Turf, one of the extra-charge specialty restaurants onboard. But do we think itโ€™s worth the extra cost? Later, we head to the Island Vibes deck party on the Marella Discovery pool deck, enjoying the beautiful warm Eastern Mediterranean weather. And if you keep your eyes peeled, you may even spot Peter Andre on our cruise! After a fun night of entertainment with Sam the Pianist and The Collective in the Live Room, we finish the evening with a visit to Bar Eleven, the nightclub onboard Marella Discovery, before calling it a night. Watch now to find out whether we regret any of our decisions on this cruise, and get a look at life onboard Marella Discovery! Marella Discovery is part of the Marella Cruises fleet along with Marella Discovery 2, Marella Explorer, Marella Explorer 2, and Marella Voyager, offering a laid-back, all-inclusive experience for British cruisers.
