Celebrity APEX | Scotland & Iceland Cruise | Kirkwall & Home

About 25 years ago I bought a 1965 Series 2 Land Rover from the Orkney's. Bought unseen it was put on the ferry to Aberdeen where I collected it. Always promised myself a trip there.

Never thought id hear Radiohead on a cruise ship 👍

Another great vlog , really makes me miss cruising , looking forward to seeing you both in your next vlog xx

Feels ages since we disembarked!

Having been to about 15 different Scottish islands we loved Orkney. We caught a local bus to Scapa which took about 45 minutes as the bus did a loop of the town and outskirts before going out to Scapa. Got off the bus at the beach and then walked up to the distillery, not bad for £2 each!

Then a walk back to Kirkwall which was quicker than the bus trip as it was only actually a couple of miles.

It was during the walk we made the decision to go back next year for longer as there is so much to see.

I noted before our trip Apex took the Needles route out of Southampton on most of its trips, first time we have done it as not many cruise ships take that route. Agree about the cabin, as we weren't too well and the aircon dries out the air being able to have the window open overnight was a real bonus.

Our last Celebrity trip was almost ten years ago and standards are still very high, however excursion prices have become eyewatering.

Not sure we would choose another Edge class trip. The cabin was great, the layout of the rest of the ship didn't do it for us and Eden wasn't somewhere we wanted to spend time as we found it very busy and claustrophobic.

Enjoy your future trips.

Excellent last show you filmed , that singer was brilliant. I miss the shows most, not cruised since 2019

Another great series andy loved them all celebrity is my favorite cruise line.
If you are ever in aberdeen give me a shout i am a local taxi driver here and would love to meet you and give you a tour of our beautiful area.
Great to see you are gaining more subscribers well deserved well done again for the great vlogs.

That was excellent thanks for that see yous in your next adventure.

Brilliant documenting of a lovely looking cruise. Thanks

Friday nights won't be the same, bye for now, look forward to your next adventure, thank you . ❤

That is a very slow closing cabin window 😊. For breakfast my heart says Muesli , me head says fry up ❤. The Buffet looked to have a good choice to be fair. I don’t understand the shot retakes, mine are always perfect first time, honest 😂😂😂😂

Another fantastic vlog !!!!

And another great series I've enjoyed very much from you both..The ship looks amazing,I would definitely consider cruising on her for sure

We're Scots now living in Canada, going on Apex for a Caribbean cruise in November, so we loved your series. New to your channel but really enjoyed your presentation. Try the Edge, we loved that ship too.

I like your background music.

That was another great series of videos. Thanks for sharing.

Just off Apex and totally agree about your take on the food, excellent in all venues. Captain Nikolas was very visible and lead a very happy ship. An elevated experience? We’d say yes. 🙏👍

Greetings Andy and Kirstie. Thanks for sharing. It was a nightmare/mayhem getting on-board again as the Embarkation Deck changed. The locals at Kirkwall were amazing.

Dear Kirstie and Andy. Thank you again for a stellar presentation. Andy, I was thoroughly impressed with the summary of the cruise depicting the route and port calls at the end of the video. A very nice touch indeed. Fair winds and following seas.

Great video again Kirstie and Andy, you seemed to have more video of the different parts of the ship this time which was interesting. I also liked the explanation of your set up in the cabin as well as the usual cruise video. I am surprised that you do not have many more subscribers because you deserve them! I believe from other You Tubers that asking people to subscribe during the video is a good way to get more? Anyway, thanks again.

I have a dream to try such a cruise one day and I must say that your presentation is fantastic, thank you so much. The map and your way of explaining the route was so good and interesting as well. Seeing your tour on a map like that gives you a super overview. Looking forward to the next cruise. All the best to you both.

Lovely vlog hope you are feeling better Andy Orkney looked lovely brilliant photographer as usual very interesting what a beautiful ship 🙋‍♀️👋👍

Another beautifully filmed and interesting series. I think the food and entertainment on Edge class are awesome. Looking forward to seeing your next adventures. Take care.

👌👍
Lep pozdrav iz Slovenije

Excellent series again Andy, thank you both for sharing. Terry

Again enjoyed the vlog and the itinerary, always great content , Kirkwall looked lovely , I’d definitely do a walking tour where possible. Look forward to your next adventure 😊

Really enjoyed the version of Creep that was performed.

Hello u2 ... loving this adventure sir and madam ... u are a great pair and all bless 2 u ❤ ❤❤❤❤

Thank you for another wonderful cruise series. It looked like an amazing vacation for you. Your last day summary was awesome.

Really enjoyed the videos thank you both 👏

What time of year were you there ?? I know you can never predict Mother Nature but it’s always good to know when people go . It’s on our bucket list

Looks like you had good weather for September, Iceland is a Beautiful place, and Kirkwall is worth a visit, especially if you get the chance to take the local buses and go to Scapa Flow.

Hi thanks for another great video! I am booked on Apex next year and wondered if you could let me know please? I LOVE to watch movies on my cabin TV (I’ve done this on Sky Princess but have just disembarked P&O Arcadia where there is no availability) please can you let me know if there is a library of movies on the cabin TV? Thanks Andy and Kirsty. Happy Cruising!

Hi Andy and Kirstie. This might be cramping your style but have you considering sailing on Ambassador? Thank you

Great collection of videos! We were on the cruise after you down to the Med. First time on Apex (have been on Eclipse several times and Infinity). We were blown away by the quality of the food in The Buffet - and only ate in the Main Dining rooms (trying each one) on Sea Days.

Great series ☺️ thank you ☺️

Fantastic series really enjoyed as always. Loved the recap and route map . Can’t wait for your next series. Thank you for sharing your trip 🎉

They sure love acrobats on this line now. So different than when I sailed on them on earlier ships. I'm still looking for the place where couples enjoy dancing to a quieter style of music or jazz, salsa, blues. I guess it is the Martini Bar area at times. This Celebrity is a huge change from foundation Celebrity.

Glad to find your content from this cruise. I'm so tempted by a cruise to Scotland to experience 'home' in a different way, and the EDGE class ships offering these itineraries make it SO appealing!

The vibe onboard looks way more calm and relaxed on this itinerary than what I've seen with these ships operating in the Caribbean world, which was interesting to see!
