It looks perfect for me, except for the dinner situation. As a solo traveler, I rarely want to sit around and wait for multi-course service. My dining mate, Lady iPad, feels the same.

Great video on the pros and cons of Regent Gary. I like your approach discussing the negatives and positives of each cruise line. Too many cruise influencers give me the impression that they are just trying to sell me something. You are the best in this category.

Interesting, Gary. Keep up the good work. I find you are the most unbiased cruise commentator that I follow.

Watching these videos is an excellent alternative to cruising itself. Many thanks for the vicarious enjoyment.

You made an interesting comparison between RC and Regent pricing. We’ve done the large ship with the bustle, noise and extra charges for everything. It was disappointing. Sounds like we need to try a luxury line cruise! Thanks for these videos. They are so informative and helpful. Happy cruising!

one can go to Sette Mari any time after it is open and if a table of YOUR CHOICE is not available they usually suggest you have a drink at the Observation Lounge and they will phone the bar to let you know your table is available. So whilst you cannot make a reservation, it is a good system.

I am not a cruiser, but I enjoy watching your videos. You are extremely concise for anyone looking to cruise. However it seems like a lot of work to do for a vacation. Safe travels. 🇨🇦

Spot on sir ! In the last year my wife and I went on three cruises. Two on Regent and one on Royal Caribbean. After factoring in all the extra things Royal Caribbean gouges you on you end up paying pretty much the same as you would for the Regent cruise only fare.

I've recently completed the 15 day Tokyo to Bangkok cruise on the Regent Explorer and agree with the vast majority of the video content. I learnt that for the previous 'round Japan cruises, my cruise, and, the subsequent Bangkok to Bali cruise, the ship has been / will be completely full. No doubt this inevitably has an impact on restaurant service. Another dinner reservation-related and service-related factor has to be the demographic of passengers cruising with Regent. Much older folk. And the oldies go for dinner much earlier. Speaking to wait staff, Sette Mari always has tables 8pm onwards. Sette Mari is also half the capacity of La Veranda. (Phenomenal video editing Gary; the speedy slick scene switches is forcing me to watch the video a second time!) FWIW, I do notice the Regent three day pre-cruise tours end up with the vanilla corporate hotels. I booked the Concierge grade cabin and got one night Tokyo hotel pre-cruise. The one night hotels seem to be the higher end vanilla corporate hotels 🙂,

Gary thanks for the Explorer review. Your points of view are generally in line with ours and we watch all of your videos. Most of your Regent comments are spot on. Regarding the lack of casual evening dining, you are correct, and Seabourn has the identical issue. The lack of change in dining menus is an issue with Seabourn also. We’d love menus that change based on the area we are cruising. We have cruised Regent multiple times and our experience has been different in these respects: we always easily get a res for each specialty restaurant, well before the cruise. This is the same for all suite classes. Everyone, including penthouse and higher, gets one res only in each restaurant. More are available after boarding. Correction re air travel, EVERY suite category, not just penthouse and above, has the same options, which includes business class air on international flights. Excursions: for the same Japan cruise in Oct ‘24, as yours in ‘23, we booked our excursions several weeks after they opened, and we got every one we wanted, no problem. Clearly, people have different experiences.

It’s always nice to see your videos and have a merry Christmas and a happy new year

So exciting that you're coming to South Africa!

Thank you for this video, Gary. My sister and I only cruise with Oceania and Regent because the all-inclusive price is a more relaxing way to travel. We love both lines, however we book our own pre-hotel stays and air separately now. Regent's pre-hotel included stays have been disappointing to say the least.

Love all the lectures! CANT have too many for me 😄 Quiet activities are perfect.

Absolutely spot on. We have been on regent a number of times and are now looking elsewhere because their food is so predictable and it never changes. Hotels also poor before leaving - especially Hong Kong. Lovely staff.

Gary i enjoyed your review & comparison, liked seeing the areas! I had thought sail Regent many yrs ago; kept with Oceania & HAL. May look into again😊

We came back from our first Regent trip this autumn. Really enjoyed the experience and how much is included. We had a pre cruise stay and our hotel was a nice one (apart from the breakfast chaos and checkout the morning of embarkation). We enjoyed the food and really liked at there was a good range of food on the left side of the menu always available and could mix and match with the daily menu which was new each day. The library was very well stocked and staff were excellent. It was lovely having laundry included and certainly presented beautifully when it was delivered back to the room - I told hubby not to expect tissue wrapped laundry service at home! All in all it was a lovely trip and really nice not to have think about paying for anything all trip. We had a suite but paid a lot less than full price and having been said we don’t think full price would be value for money when we consider what we actually paid. As far as all inclusive and included speciality dining and excellent service we had similar on a Saga cruise (excursions were extra) and found them to be well worth trying again in the future. I might not be the youngest on board in a few years too 😂

Thanks Gary. I always look forward to your luxury/ultra luxury videos. We are not typical cruisers that go out several times a year, but when we take a holiday we do like the best. Last year we were on Silversea for a 2 week tour of Britain, Scotland and Ireland. Love, love, loved it! I am very able bodied, my husband is not. Silversea is very good at offering included excursions for every type of traveller. And the food, drinks, shows, room service (including daily caviar if you wish) were outstanding. My husband is a homebody but it didn’t take much convincing to book another cruise on Silversea. We lucked out and will be sailing on the Nova in April for 23 days. I can’t wait to experience this ship and their S.A.L.T. Program! Thanks for the great information you provide.

The ship and the desserts looked stunning!

Great video, per usual 😊 Thanks for all that you do!

Thank you for sharing.

A detailed and well-informed video as always. I'm currently not at a point in my life where I would really consider doing an ultra luxury line, and this review solidifies that stance. At some point I'd like to try out this experience with my wife, but I think we'll stick with the premium lines (particularly Celebrity and Virgin) for now.

We've been on Regent 3 times, 2 Explorer and 1 Splendor. All 3 were Conceirge suites, never penthouse. We got specialty reservations in all 3 of those restaurants long before boarding. Maybe you had to wait because you didn't book early or your suite level. Also, the Splendor has a brighter more modern look. We preferred Explorer overall.

Really interesting, and I am very much looking forward to your in-depth comparison with other luxury lines. If possible, can you do a segment on Solo traveller fares across these lines? I was interested that the MDR was open seating. So far, my only experience odd more luxurious cruising is upgrading to Grills and Club Balcony on Cunard. This has made me realise that I really do appreciate having open dining but with a dedicated table for the duration of the cruise. You get the flexibility of dining when convenient but the benefit of the same waiters and fellow guests every night, which makes a lovely atmosphere. Thanks again for your super detailed and informative videos, they are so helpful.

Great video and I by and large agree with your comments. On thing puzzles me though. You said you couldn't book the specialities until you boarded. I already have all three booked for our upcoming December cruise. It's true Concierge and above can book even earlier than Superior on down, but all cabin grades can book at some point pre-cruise.

There is absolutely no trouble with requesting a table for one in any of the restaurants on board a Regent Shop.

The Explorer is my favorite Regent ship. It just has that James Bond look to it.

Thank you...very informative and helpful. We are loyal and exclusive to Celebrity...we love the staff, food and size of the ships...but have been tempted to try Regent and Oceania.

Gary I would call the decor of the ship vintage but comfortable .

Thanks again for your professional approach to YT reviews . Nice if you could do some of the cruises out of Sydney for us downunder ?

It was a pleasant surprise to find myself in your video. I agree that Pacific Rim is the best specialty restaurant.

My thoughts from viewing their menus is that the food offerings are stuck back in the 1960s. While there’s nothing wrong with classic dishes, for that level of premium cruise, you’d expect their kitchen to offer a bit more innovation.

We tried Regent on a two week cruise. All was great except for the food. While very good we found the service was slow and several restaurants served food which were not as hot as it should be. When going on an ultra luxury cruise we hold the ship to a higher standard than a lower price line. We will try them one more time.

Thanks for the review Gary. This jibes with what we found on our Regent Splendor cruise in the Caribbean. Ship was amazing, staff were great, food was good (Pacific Rim was outstanding), and culinary kitchen was fantastic. On the con side, you are right about the excursions. They tend to be pretty boring (mostly highlight tours) and the more interesting ones were sold out immediately. As to the passengers, we did tend to find them “entitled” and I could count on one hand the number of times we herd the passengers thanks the staff (maybe it was our particular sailing, as this was our first sailing). The most frustrating thing were the chair hogs. EVERY day there were no chairs to be had as they were all pretty much taken by 9am. I even went out at 6am one morning (as I woke up early) and many chairs were already reserved. It will be a while before we will try Regent again.

Seabourn's method of meeting the bus at peir side (with electronic notifications on thier Source app) beats Regent's antiquainted nanny state system of all going to the grand salon to exchange your tickers for bus passes instead of just allowing tour goers to just get off the ship and go to the bus..

Great video. We just booked our first Regent cruise 8 months in advance and were disappointed that the "included" tours we wanted, and were still advertised, were actually fully booked! Disappointment doesn't make for a good first impression. Feels wrong to have to pay extra for much touted "included" tours. At least Saga are upfront with their included tours i.e. free simple sightseeing and if you want more there is a nominal charge. Why don't Regent just add in another coach for popular tours?

Wi-fi through Starlink on your Royal Caribbean suite 14:11 wasn't an add-on as you say, but was included (but for one device as you note in your review of your suite experience on Symphony).

I cruised on Oceania Marina before I cruised on Regent Splendor. Oceania by far had the better food and afternoon tea. Regent had the absolute best service. I had a concierge veranda on Oceania and only a G2 stateroom (2 levels from the lowest) on Regent. Many more amenities were included on Regent than Oceania and my stateroom was bigger on Regent. Also, my room attendants on Regent were outstanding.

My sister loved her vegan meals on the Regent. She loved her trip so much, I’m now going. I hope it’s good.

It’s hard to justify paying almost the same-sometimes more!-money, for Silversea or Crystal when Regent includes shore excursions. They also were exceptionally accommodating to my gluten free needs. What seals the deal is they do my laundry--beautifully. This was an absolute joy. The staff is pleasant and exceptional. The shore excursions are well organized and well executed. I am now loyal to Regent-would rather cruise less often but have an exceptional experience.

I LOVE THOSE Kumamon bears // so much i bought a luggage tag with their face on it

Correction on dining. You can make 1 reservation for each specialty restaurant BEFORE booking and once onboard so 6 plus lunch on sea days. Between that, the main restaurant and La Veranda (Italian). Lots of variety from my perspective.

We have done 2 Regent cruises - one before covid and one this past summer. We enjoy the luxery and all inclusive! We have also done Oceania and Crystal (before bankruptcy) and enjoyed Regent and Crystal the most. We could book all restaurants and excursions before the cruise and add more dining reservations once we got on ship (booked lower level suite). The one big disappointment was the quality of included excursions this past summer. Hit and miss in each port on quality of the tour and people that ran them. Really not up to par with what we experienced the last time on Regent.

Love your channel! I had a terrible experience on my 1st and last cruise which was NCL. Went in summer 2004 on an NCL to Hawaii and the crew had gone on strike! Half the crew members were gone so everything was a mess. Our "compensation" was a coupon to book our next trip. Don't they give those out anyway?!? Lol if I were to cruise again I would be hesitant to book any company by NCL.

Agree Gary I would expect those little extra things and feeling of luxury, you pay a premium for these “luxury lines” Looks very nice but think I get just as good an experience on NCL.with more variety.

I don’t agree with your assessment that the regent ships are outdated. Silversea is grey grey grey. Regent is beautiful and warm. salt is the best on Silversea.

As you are running out of ships, lines and places to go - a good problem to have! - I'd love to see you try Crystal 2.0, Gary. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's one of the very few lines you haven't covered (yet). I've sailed with them pre-bankruptcy, and I'm wondering if its the same, better, or worse. I'm probably not the only one in your audience wondering this. Cheers.

Having completed a 16 night cruise on “Navigator” we felt the ship fell well short of Regents marketing hype. To such an extent, if like us, it’s your first Regent experience, a second may not follow.

Your reviews are excellent. Do you often travel alone?

I’m off on Viking in a few days to South America for the Penguin cruise. I get brochures from Regent but I might miss the enrichment that Viking offers. Thanks for this information on Regent!

What a wonderful service you provide with these exceptional videos! After seeing this, a luxury line does not appeal to me, and price is only part of the equation. I, too, would miss some of the entertainment. The alcohol, wi-fi and excursions are not something I would need. We generally do independent excursions. Apparently pax are the same in every cruise line, as when we walk the steps for exercise dinner time there is always a long line of pax waiting to get into the MDR for dinner. We eat a variety of healthy fare, and have no need to spend extra monies or time searching for a gourmet experience. Considering we cruise for the ports, we eat at the buffet to save time and see a few shows. Dinner has become such a production on all lines (and slow at times). It was also a problem on my recent Greenland/Canada cruise that pax would wait in line hours before tender tickets were to be distributed, just to get them (in case they might need them) and then not show for the tenders. This resulted in tenders running half full. Seems they were doing the same by scooping up "free" excursions places and not showing up. It is not to the cruise lines' credit they did not find a way to stop the no shows, especially with the excursions. We found the staff and crew to be very engaging, friendly and willing to converse on any line we have sailed. Service is excellent across the board.

higher level suites allow early on line booking for speciality restaurants and tours.

We are going on Oceania Marina next year in a Penthouse Suite. I am going to price out a Celebrity Cruise line (our go-to cruise line) Celebrity Suite and add up the cost for each and see what the apples-to-apples comparison, cost wise is. Betcha not that different.

We are avid Regent cruisers and agree with much of what you observed regarding the specialty restaurants. With one exception, service is spotty and food is either so-so or unexceptional. First, Prime 7 - face it folks, at this level of cruising cost, the clientele are people who've eaten MANY steaks & chops in their lifetimes, and one thing I've consistently observed about steak & chophouses is that it takes a LOT to distinguish your "product" (food, service, decor) from that of other such venues. For all of the finest chophouses, my adage has become "the 'worst' you have is good." I have not been impressed with the quality of the meat in Prime 7 which we've experienced on a solid cross-section of oceans & seas across seven sailings on three of Regent's ships (Voyager, Explorer & Splendor) - again, for this level of clientele & cost, Prime 7 meat is not exceptional. Service, in our opinion, has been spotty at times . . . in most cases, it appeared to be the result of staff who were not well-trained for the level of service commonly experienced by patrons in a high-end chophouse (and thus the benchmark for assessment of their performance). Finally, I will give an edge to Prime 7 (above MANY other high-end chophouses) regarding decor - not only are all surfaces well-appointed and comfortable, but also (and most importantly IMHO) acoustically-efficient because the noise is minimal by comparison to the excessive din all too common in chophouses which makes table conversation almost a shouting match. I recommend a different concept for this venue, and just offer a nice complement of steak options on the menu of the main dining room, Compass Rose - with worldwide meat quality & sourcing problematic, making consistent distinguished meat quality a problem, it's a losing proposition to try to be a "chophouse at sea" for folks who have a LOT of superlative experiences for comparison. The only standout in Prime 7 for us is the caramel popcorn sundae dessert - a unique offering which is unlike the standard lineup of chophouse desserts. Chartreuse - this is simply not our cup of tea. The dishes just don't fit our palette, and - given our experiences throughout France (Paris, the Normandy/Britanny region/coast, and the region around Lyon & Avignon), the dishes seem to fuse too many of the regional cuisines together . . . in a common sense, it would be like combining southeastern US pulled-pork BBQ, with a spicy hot Texas BBQ sauce, covered in a Wisconsin cheese and served on a roll in Chicago, calling it a "Philly-style Cheesesteak." Service in Chartreuse has regularly been the worst of the specialty dining venues - one instance really stood out to us. We were seated, and our order taken, & bread service arrived before any water or wine was offered; we actually received our appetizers with no beverage of any sort on our table. We saw a suited gentlemen with a corkscrew pin on one lapel & a sommelier's pin on the other who clearly was the "Head Sommelier" for the evening; he was meandering among tables "supervising" but not actively serving anyone so we got his attention and mentioned our plight. Rather than take care of our situation personally (given the immediate need for a beverage to go with our food) we observed him tell one of his overworked wine servers (who had already failed to have time to serve us) to handle our needs. We waited another 10 minutes during which our entrees were served before wine was served. I come from an industry, a work ethic, where "no job is beneath you" is the mantra; this service was atrocious and devoid of any customer-focus especially on the part of that aloof "Head Sommelier." I will give Chartreuse chops for decor as, again, the appointments are very acoustically-efficient, minimizing noise, facilitating table conversation at normal speaking voice levels. Pacific Rim - this is the standout among the specialty restaurants. We dine there as often as we're able to do so when aboard the Explorer-class ships. The all-female staff truly distinguish themselves in the quality of service . . . from the maitre d' to the bus staff, pleasant attentiveness is consistent, and when rare issues arise, they are addressed quickly. The food offerings in this Asian Fusion restaurant are as entertainingly enjoyable as they are expertly prepared and tasty. I am reminded each time we dine at Pacific Rim of the Rodney Daingerfield movie "Back to School" in which the star owns a chain of "Tall & Fat" clothing stores one of the TV ads for which include the statement "Are you fat? . . . do you look at a menu and say, 'OK'?" I could eat EVERYTHING on the Pac Rim menu . . . and, over the course of our sailings, have tried each and every appetizer & entrée at least once. One night, dining with a similarly-inclined other couple, we started with one of every appetizer . . . which, by the way, the staff adeptly arranged for four (vs. 3) pieces of each on the serving dish and expertly timed the removal of each finished option & replacement with the next. The decor's attention to detail is remarkable (including beautiful designs INSIDE the shades of lamps above tables), and, similar to Prime 7 & Chartreuse, acoustically-efficient, minimizing noise, facilitating table conversation at normal speaking voice levels. Setti Mari - given this restaurant does not accept reservations, we've found that you need to get in line as much as a half hour before its 6:30 opening for any hope of getting a table for a dining experience that frees you up in time for the evening show. Service tends to be slow, and the place - doubling as the breakfast venue - once full is among the noisiest evening dining options on the ship. The Italian cuisine is very well-done . . . I should also add that when I chose a steak option on the menu one evening, it was the best steak I've ever had on a Regent ship. As you pointed out in a review of Oceania cooking & art classes, Setti Mari is a dining venue which is inadequately sized for the demand.

Great video not sold on Regent after your review. Thank you.

Lack of casual evening dining is a reason we’ve not considered Regent, though we have sailed with Oceania and Viking, neither of which hold much appeal as the guest capacities are larger than we prefer. May look into Seabourn.

Thanks for the videos. New to cruises. Booked our first this August on Cunard QG. We have been looking at Regent or Silverseas for next year, so my question: which would you go for Silverseas or Regent? We really can't stand queing for restaurants and having restaurant restrictions. Cheers

Hey Gary, I booked on SilverSea and was disappointed to realize that only a few excursions are included. Anything that’s elaborate or more pricey is not included. They only have one or two available “free” excursions. Fortunately, I had my full choice of “free, included“ excursions.

Garry thanks for another excellent summary. We sail on Grandeur this November. One thing I struggle with in cruising is determining how much gratuity to leave. I know it's very subjective but this has bugged me a bit because I obviously don't want to be cheap and would like to reward a butler for their service but also don't want to unnecessarily part with money. It gets complicated with the "inclusive" cruises. For example on NCL, their included gratuities do not cover Haven butlers or concierge, whilst on MSC Yacht Club they actually do include them. Do you ever tip in addition to the included gratuities for your butlers and cabin stewards? If so what's a reference dollar point is considered reasonable?

Would love to try Regent or one of the ultra lux cruise lines, but I feel they may work for cruisers who are taking a holiday of a lifetime. We're cruising about 3 times a year, minimum 14 days each time, always mini suite club class on premium lines, so the cost of going up market is beyond our reach. Not sure that I mind either! I do love though the size of all the ultra lux ships!!

I think you hit the nail on the head - it is all in what you want. My mom and I both love cruising but have yet to sail together because we both want very different things. We are kind of thinking of trying Celebrity in the Retreat because it seems like it might be a cross over that works for both of us. I am more Virgin Voyages while my mother leans Viking. 😂

Maybe a common question but i couldn't find it. With camera did you take the walking shots (you can't see the camera and the pole, only there shadow) Thx for the content and info again 👍🏻 As always: Greetings from the Netherlands 🇱🇺 👍🏻

Totally disappointed on my recent transatlantic cruise on the Mariner. I found the food at best okay. I found passengers stodgy. And felt the ship was stuck in another cruise era...will never spend the money for such a dismal experince. I must say that my preferred cruise line is Viking which wipes the floor when compared with Regent.

Hi, RSSC's web site says excursions can be reserved 300 days or less before cruising through their web site. I'm wondering what the situation was, why you had to book on the ship with short notice? Thanks again, we like your reviews!

This was very helpful for me. I have my first Silversea cruise booked for next summer. I am looking to try the other competing lines as well. Great info by comparing and contrasting them. Thank you.

Not joking about those prices. Checked on a seven day cruise in Europe in October. All of the lowers suites are already booked out. The remaining ones are 12k+ per person. Not too sure I want to do that for the first cruise experience. 30th anniversary so want to do something special but maybe wan to try some less pricey cruises first.

QUESTION: Gary… we’ll be going on Regent /Japan Fall ‘25. Do you really have to dress-up for dinner? If so, is there an alternative (other than room service)? Thx

I seem to recall that my friend MG paid US$600,000 for his 60th birthday cruise. A few other funny items: 1) His annual travel budget was upwards of US$500,000 per year 2) The funniest story I ever heard from him was when he went on his biennial world cruise, got mad one month in at the captain and hotel manager who were by that time arguing with each other in front of other passengers, so he left most of his luggage onboard and decamped to Rome, and then re-boarded a month later when the ship got around to Civitavecchia. BTW, he would have dinner in the crew mess just about as often as in one of the dining rooms.

Hi Gary, you said in your video that you don’t drink alcohol so would u not prefer to go on a ship where alcohol is not included in the price of your cruise?

While it's not a line I think is right for me, I enjoyed the review.

If you go on Regent line which is part of the Intel group can you use latitudes points and do you get latitudes points

Hi Gary, I can see by your videos you have been with lots of cruise lines. Can you tell me which one you thought was the best value for money please.

How good is good enough. Luxury is very subjective.

Do you think that Regent are charging a premium for things like the artwork, table settings and crystal chandeliers? I understand that these are meant to impress but do they actually add anything to the cruise experience.

Gary, how did Pacific Rim compare with Red Ginger on the Oceania ships? TIA

Any reason why you never incude The Ritz cruises?

Regent was great on a recent cruise, food excellent far better than Oceania. Having said that both Regent and Azamara this year have provided better quality food than Oceania. We find it hard to understand the fixation with food on Oceania, having tried them for a second time this year we were again disappointed.

A little disingenuous about the entry lines at Sette Marie, Gary. I'll bet that queue at 6pm, the time it opens, cleared within a few minutes as they seated that peak, and anyone arriving a little later will not have waited long. On Splendor recently we had only one occasion where we arrived just before 8pm and were told of a 20 minute wait and went for a drink at the bar, but we were called forward before we'd even been served the drinks after just 5 minutes!

11:30 Didn't that guy used to own Jurassic Park?

I personally just ignore formal nights. Men have to wear nice pants and a collared shirt every night anyhow and that is enough

Ok, Gary ... I give up ... in those shots you took of yourself walking through the ship ... how do you make the selfie stick disappear? 🤔

Question: excursions- am I correct in thinking, that if yr time zone is last to wake up/ opposite to the "opening to book" time frame..... you would naturally miss out!

Gary, in your honest opinion, who has the better food: Regent or Oceania?

Thanks for this review, Gary. I'd love it if you did a Regent v Oceania at some stage, perhaps after trying Vista in the new year. Do you think they still cater for two distinct markets, or the rebranding and refurbishment of the Oceania ships is starting to eclipse Regent, reflecting a more modern luxury?

I think I’ll stick with Seabourn Gary. Small ships and great treatment. Can’t say enough about them.

At firat, I thought you were being overly critical. But then when you provided th4e comparison to standard cruise lines, perhaps not. I do think that folks who book a premium cruise line are more demanding.

Gary is the perfect presenter, not an "Umm" or an "Err" in sight

Gary was any caviar available on RSS Explorer ? I have heard with Seabourn you can have it served anytime.

So it is like a Disney type experience vs a private club experience.

Gary missed out on comments about the entertainment on Regent. We hated our 16 day Norwegian fjord cruise recently. Abysmal entertainment, a pianist that didn’t sing in the observation lounge, Tony Bennet died while we were in our cruise but he just kept playing the same repetitive repertoire over and over. He didn’t know who Charles Aznavour was nor Edith Piaf! He had an iPad and could have just typed the names in and played the music but he didn’t bother. The. There were the two guys in the bar on their iPad. The main singer was off key non stop, ppl ran away from their music. Overall regent is a STERILE experience geared for a certain type of rich American clientele

If I'm going on one of these ultra luxury lines, I don't go on them, but one you would recommend and destination? No places like Galápagos or Arctic, wife would not enjoy.

Thank you Gary....Just curious. Does Regent require any formal attire. i.e. are men required to wear jackets and or ties at supper time?

wait wtf I wanna waddle with those gian penguins!

How do you feel about Silver Sea?

Including all excursions, but only if you are lucky enough in the 'lottery' to book them is a FAIL

On Regent Cruises do they have a craps table in the casino? Is Regent like NCL or RCCL?

Is it business class airfare for domestic flights as well?

Self Serve Laundries. That's where you get to meet your fellow passengers and catch up on all the gossip

We just got off the Navigator in Papeete Tahiti. What a huge disappointment. We think Regent was just not good and not at all a luxury experience. (We let them know.) we find this particular ship very rundown; the food was sub par; the included wine selection was very weak. We will stick with Virgin, Viking and Celebrity for now and are considering Crystal. The amount of money Regent charges just isn’t worth it.

Dear gery, in the lost video about regent in the you sed that you were highly impressed with the food and Its in the highest level at sea competing with cunard queens girl. this video you state that the food is kind on the same level with oceania cruises. In your Point of View Wes there are down grade of the food or the food in oceana cruises is that good??? That you
