First Class on a Ritz Carlton Luxury Cruise | Evrima

Check out Carl Friedrik's “The Luggage Set” here: friedrik.com/0m2 Thanks all for watching. Let me know what cruise content you'd like to see next :)

This is what the internet should be used for - honest and informative reviews!! So refreshing to see.

Imagine paying all that money only to find they are understaffed, the food service is terrible, and some facilities are broken or shuttered? Amateur night, and somehow they got paid for all that and then felt they didn't need to do their jobs properly or provide what they promised. Good job informing us and for being so patient with the experience

We sailed on the Evrima in mid-December, and experienced the same problems you did - invisible concierge, phone system not working, non-functioning hot tubs, no drinks on deck 10, etc. It is unconscionable that they have not cared enough about their guests to fix any of these big issues.

For a price tag that high… EVERYTHING needs to be stellar…. Amenities, service, food, ……

Wow, great review. This would be abysmal service on any cruise line, but on a Four Seasons yacht it's absolutely unacceptable. At those prices, everything (including hot tubs) should work, a drink should be obtainable from every seat in the house in under 5 minutes, and a 15 minute wait for a menu should embarrass the crew and crew leader. If I'd payed $10K/p for this voyage, I would be furious. Thanks for keeping it honest!

You've quickly become my favourite youtube channel Will. I'm also extremely impressed you've managed to parlay yourself into a career as a luxury travel reviewer, well played sir.

This is so good because it's honest and not sugar coating a "luxury cruise" - it makes it so much more human.

I was on Evrima a few weeks ago and echo your sentiments exactly. You got the high and low points correctly. Well done (to you) and to Marriott, this diamond needs more polishing. I am writing this from my suite aboard celebrity Apex in the retreat and the differences in the service levels (and even the food) are substantial. The more intimate retreat/haven spaces aboard the newest mainline ships will give the luxury players are run for their money and they need to step it up.

This is a great video! Thanks for giving people a genuine look inside a product not typically shown in this way!

Will and Millie, Thank you for bringing us along on this beautiful ship. It’s sad that you experienced issues with staffing and some areas of the ship as well as some of the food. The pricing and the RC name, you should have had a top notch experience. It looks like the weather was beautiful and I’m sure was a welcomed getaway. Can’t wait for the next video.

the production value is insane, these vids are always so well filmed and edited

Thanks for taking us along for the journey. Given the cost and brand, I was surprised by the lack of staff, cost of the spa facilities and overall experience. It's a good thing the canoeing guests were good rowers when the safety line gave way, lol. Not quite the in line with the Ritz's reputation for excellent service and pre-empting customer needs but hopefully this changes.

I appreciate how you are honest with stuff and don't just say that everything is great

Yes for the Antarctic cruise - I'd be interested in seeing how the 'scientific' cruises like Viking work!

Customer service, quality assurance, and value for money spent are all examples of things most corporations have mistakenly failed to maintain in their quest for profit.

Hi, Millie!! Both of you are so cute! I get genuine happiness watching y'all enjoy yourselves on these trips. I love Will's expressions when he eats a particularly tasty meal. Keep up the travels!

Excellent, honest review -- it's always fun to feel like we're tagging along with you! 🙂 As for this Ritz Carlton experience, it seems rather lacking in ambience, charm, and service for the exorbitant price. It feels like a cross between a luxury high-rise apartment building (with all the nicely appointed, yet empty common areas) and the vast, sterility of Equinox Sports Club LA. Lastly, I was shocked that I could literally SEE how dry and stringy that chicken was -- for that to translate onto the screen, it must have been absolutely inedible in person! 😅

You definitely need to take an Antartica cruise. I think it would be amazing to do.

Really really admire the kind and humorous way in which you deal with things you do not enjoy that much/or expected otherwise. That's what distinguishes your channel from the drama-packed channels around these days! Chapeau!
