let's take a look around how the wealthy
0:02
go cruising and take a peek at cruise
0:04
ship suites that cost
0:09
week's cruising that's a staggering
0:11
amount of money that's enough to buy a
0:13
an apartment or even a house in many
0:15
countries i'm gary bembridge
0:16
i'm going to take you around a whole
0:19
of amazing cruise ship suites so if one
0:23
day you win the lottery these are
0:24
perhaps the way that you
0:25
are going to want to cruise meantime
0:28
it's a bit of voyeurism these are all
0:30
crew suites that i have i've either
0:33
one of which i have actually cruised on
0:34
i'll let you know during the video which
0:36
one of those it is we're going to start
0:40
a look at the cheapest of these amazing
0:44
suites and work our way up to the ones
0:47
70 000 a week one of the
0:51
nicest and more affordable of all of
0:54
suites is onboard norwegian cruise lines
0:57
and within what they call the haven
0:58
concept the most recent of those that i
1:00
managed to experience and tour
1:02
was on norwegian encore the haven is a
1:05
ship within the ship this is the premium
1:07
on board norwegian cruise lines in there
1:11
dedicated lounge you have a concierge
1:14
you have a swimming pool area
1:15
and you also have a restaurant which all
1:19
go in there's a wide range of different
1:21
types of suites within the haven which
1:23
range from a standard suite which is
1:24
going to set you back about
1:26
one thousand dollars a day so about
1:27
seven thousand dollars for the week up
1:31
spa suites which have a jacuzzi and
1:33
that's gonna cost you up to about
1:34
sixteen thousand dollars for
1:36
a seven night cruise the haven
1:39
is really amazing and it's one of the
1:40
more affordable of all of the amazing
1:44
if you want to spend a little bit more
1:46
money and have fourteen thousand dollars
1:48
to spend for a week-long cruise that's
1:50
two thousand dollars a day
1:51
i recommend you take a look at the
1:53
amazing princess cruises
1:55
sky suite they've introduced these
1:57
suites on board their new ships like the
1:59
sky princess enchanted princess
2:01
and all the ships after that it makes
2:03
the claim of having the largest
2:04
balcony at sea and it is an enormous
2:08
these suites have a lounge area where
2:10
one person can sleep little dining area
2:12
they have a master bedroom with an
2:14
ensuite bathroom they then have a second
2:16
with bathroom as well so this suite can
2:18
actually sleep up to five people so it's
2:20
particularly good i guess if you're
2:21
traveling as a family
2:23
the balcony enables you to look over the
2:25
pool deck you have 270 degree views so
2:27
it's great particularly with movies
2:28
under the stars you can have your own
2:30
private balcony beautiful suite nice
2:32
modern day course so that's
2:33
if you have fourteen thousand dollars to
2:37
cruise if you wanna spend even a little
2:39
bit more and you have eighteen
2:40
thousand dollars to spend for a week's
2:42
cruise i recommend you take a look at
2:44
cunard and particularly the queen
2:46
elizabeth and the queen victoria these
2:48
are magnificent beautiful queens grill
2:52
the one that i really like on board
2:54
these ships is the grand suite this is
2:55
the what they call their q2 so in queens
2:58
everything from a q6 which is the entry
3:00
level which is going to cost you about
3:02
as that sky suite but the q2 is their
3:05
this is gonna cost you around about
3:08
eighteen thousand dollars a week so two
3:09
thousand five hundred dollars a day
3:11
queen squirrel is a bit like traveling
3:14
on the qnart ships they have their own
3:16
restaurant their own lounge
3:18
and bar and concierge but the q2 grand
3:21
suite which is also known
3:23
on the queen elizabeth as the coronia
3:26
has a big beautiful lounge here it has a
3:29
massive big dining area
3:30
it has a separate bedroom with a huge
3:33
dressing area the decor is a bit more
3:35
traditional but more art deco like
3:37
which reflects the rest of the ship this
3:40
is a really really nice cabin and the
3:43
is definitely a great way to cruise so
3:46
is if you've got eighteen thousand
3:47
dollars to spend per week
3:49
a spend of thirty five thousand dollars
3:52
a week so that's five
3:53
thousand dollars a day will get you a
3:57
royal loft suite on board many of the
3:59
royal caribbean ships the one
4:01
that i visited and absolutely fell in
4:03
love with was on board anthem of the
4:06
these beautiful loft suites are two
4:08
levels of their duplex level you have
4:10
a lounge dining area you have a massive
4:14
balcony you have a games room a sort of
4:18
with a beautiful bathroom down here up
4:20
the stairs you head into the master
4:21
bedroom the bed faces out towards the
4:24
big glass windows so you have
4:26
views out to the rear of the ship and
4:29
you have a beautiful big bathroom
4:32
this is a really beautiful beautiful
4:34
suite the royal loft suites are
4:37
favorite types of suites they're big
4:40
they're spacious they have lots of room
4:42
modern decor and a great location
4:44
looking back as you sail away
4:46
out from ports or at sea that's going to
4:50
thirty five thousand dollars five
4:51
thousand dollars a day
4:53
again you can sleep about five people in
4:55
here so again if you're traveling family
4:57
or with friends you could perhaps
4:58
reduce the cost per person you'll also
5:01
find the royal love suites on many of
5:04
ships of similar class to the anthem of
5:06
the seas so that includes
5:07
the oasis of the sea lure of the seas
5:09
harmony the sea symphony of the sea
5:11
and ovation of the seas if you are
5:14
traveling as a family though there
5:16
is the ultimate family sweden is
5:18
actually called that the ultimate family
5:20
and you'll find this on board the very
5:22
newest of the royal caribbean ships
5:24
like the symphony of the seas the
5:28
suite is going to cost you at least
5:30
forty five thousand dollars in the peak
5:32
christmas season it could go up to as
5:34
much as eighty thousand dollars for
5:35
a week this is mind-blowingly fantastic
5:39
for families you've got a downstairs
5:41
area which one of the first things
5:43
you'll notice is a slide
5:44
down from upstairs you've got a whole
5:48
air soccer you've got a lego wall out on
5:51
balcony you can do some climbing
5:53
activities you can play table tennis
5:55
upstairs you have the master bedroom
5:57
bathroom you also have a separate
5:59
for the family like all of the big
6:02
suites on royal caribbean you have their
6:04
genie which is basically a butler one of
6:08
game changing styles of ship which also
6:11
has one of the most expensive
6:13
suites on the seas at this point in time
6:16
is the celebrity edge class you have
6:18
celebrity age celebrity apex and
6:20
more to come their iconic suite is going
6:23
at least 70 000 this is a pretty
6:28
modern suite it is a huge big suite
6:32
the bridge so you look out towards the
6:34
forward and the bow of the ship you have
6:37
dining and lounge area you have a
6:40
beautiful master bedroom with huge big
6:42
beautiful glitzy bathroom you have a
6:46
terrace which has its own hot tub lots
6:50
on so just this is absolutely iconic and
6:53
absolutely magnificent if you like
6:54
kind of modern cruising you want to be
6:56
on one of the sort of modern
6:57
contemporary types of ships
6:58
like the edge or apex from celebrity
7:01
this is going to cost you 70 000
7:04
a week at least that's a staggering 10
7:08
a day all of the suites that i've spoken
7:12
are on the classic cruising so you can
7:14
go to the caribbean the med
7:16
wherever on those kind of ships what if
7:18
you want to go expedition cruising now
7:20
certainly at the premium end so if
7:22
you're talking like your seabourn your
7:24
and celebrity are pretty expensive
7:26
anyway and tend to have sweet
7:29
but the best expedition suite in my view
7:32
is on another celebrity ship a very
7:34
modern celebrity ship in the galapagos
7:36
called celebrity flora this really
7:41
known as the penthouse suite the
7:43
penthouse suite on here is pretty
7:45
magnificent i mean this is a relatively
7:46
small ship this is a big
7:48
big suite you've got a lounge here
7:50
you've got a bedroom here you've got a
7:52
scenic views this is going to cost you
7:56
around about fifty 50 000 or more
7:59
a week so not as expensive as the
8:01
previous one but certainly at the top
8:03
if you are going expedition cruising if
8:06
you're in the lottery or you have loads
8:09
these are the sort of suites and the
8:10
ways that you can cruise you can spend
8:13
as a very swanky posh brand new
8:16
zooty car or buying an apartment or in
8:19
some countries a house
8:20
as you can for cruising one week hope
8:22
you've enjoyed taking a look
8:24
inside some of these magnificent suites
8:25
i have the opportunity to see all of
8:27
but as i mentioned i have actually
8:29
cruised in stadium one
8:30
and that is on the queen victoria grand
8:32
suite or the corona suite
8:33
what i must admit though is it wasn't
8:35
for a whole week it was one of those
8:37
for a couple of nights but did get to
8:39
actually experience and cruise
8:41
in that kind of cabin and it really was
8:45
one of things i would certainly say if i
8:46
was cruising in a suite is i probably
8:48
want to go for a cruise which had lots
8:50
to get my money's worth hopefully you've
8:54
how the other half lives and how you
8:57
if you win the lottery fingers crossed
9:00
remember i have loads more videos packed
9:02
full of advice and tips about all things
9:04
cruising and travel so why don't you
9:05
