- How are you all doing? Welcome to the world's biggest weekend and the world's second-biggest cruise, this is the Utopia of the Seas from Royal Caribbean. With a total of 18 decks, a passenger capacity of more than 5600, and a staff of more than 2300, this cruise has around 2800 rooms. Right now, I am on deck 18, and from here you can see the entire cruise. Today is the inaugural commercial journey, with a 3-night, 4-day trip to the Bahamas. Shall we start? You know the style. Put on your headphones, make your device full screen, and forget everything for the next few moments.
I am with you, you are with me, and we are both with Utopia. My name is Dolesh and you are watching 200 Journeys. From here, you can see the view; you can see Central Park below. Since it’s a 4-day cruise, I will show you this journey in different parts.
By any chance, if you are watching this vlog locally from the United States, I have already put up subtitles. Get ready because you are about to experience something crazy from an Indian creator who is also a big-time cruise lover. Shall we start? Not like this, but with a smile and a like. Let's Utopia! Today's date of the journey is July 19th, the current time is 1 o'clock. The location is Port Canaveral, Florida’s cruise terminal number 1.
Here is the Utopia of the Seas. As I mentioned, this is a brand new cruise from Royal Caribbean. There is great music, welcoming tourists, and even dances. Security checks are done, and my boarding pass has been checked. They have now opened the gates for boarding; I guess they have opened 4-5 gates.
First, I will virtually take you inside and show you the entire interior, the food and drink, and most importantly, the cost. I will tell you how much I paid for my first cruise from the United States. This cruise is so big that it doesn’t fit in one frame. It’s going to be fun! Let’s start another journey and another cruise vlog for you.
Please like the video and share it, especially if you are watching locally from the United States. Now I will go inside. The cruise terminal and infrastructure here... the check-in process for boarding takes hardly 2 minutes and you are good to go.
From here, you can see the rooms; some people have already checked into their rooms. I will share all the details with you. There are more than 2800 rooms.
First of all, let me tell you that for travel bookings, I use the Wego app. Here, you can book worldwide flights, hotels, and tickets. This is the best travel app because Wego compares hundreds of websites and brings you the cheapest fares, whether it’s for hotels or flights.

This is going to be... - You can choose. - Anyone? I guess, I'll get the blue one. Thank You! Here we go, here we go! First of all, I have come to deck number 15.
From here, you can see the pool; the cruise has a total of 5 swimming pools. I guess there are 2 on that side and 2 on this side. On that side, music performances are happening with copyrighted songs, which I can’t show you. From this side, you can see the entire Port Canaveral; this side is for luggage loading. Have a look. They started serving food for the guests below; you can eat pizza or whatever you like.
The food is unlimited. From here, you can also see the water slides; people are already standing in line there. When there are 5500 passengers onboard, you will have to wait for the elevator and for the water slides, so keep that in mind and be patient. We have about 2 hours left until departure, and more people are yet to board. If you ask me, it already feels like the cruise is quite full.
You might not find space in the swimming pool or even in the dining areas. Let's see how the experience will be once the journey starts. You can see all these water slides, and everything here, including the gym, is complimentary. I’ll give you a complete virtual tour. This is the world's second biggest cruise! I’ll show you this series in different parts because it’s not possible to show everything in one vlog.
I’m not even sure what to show and what not to. It’s unbelievable for me! I have done cruise journeys in India before, but they can’t compare to this. This is just the beginning, keep watching. Let me show you a closer look; there’s a pool and a Jacuzzi for kids. Whenever you come, make sure to carry as many extra clothes as possible. Now it's time to show you my room tour.
I have booked an interior room, 804-808, on deck number 14. From here, you can see the views; you can see the Royal Promenade and look at the elevators. I can see six elevators here.
You can also see Central Park. My room number is 804. This is room number 804. I thought they would give the key at reception, but they have already placed it here with a "Welcome on Board" note.
I have my key; it has my name, Dolesh Agrawal, on it. This makes me feel quite proud. First, let me give you an interior room tour.
Fantastic! I have no regrets about booking an interior room instead of an ocean view or balcony. An interior room is fine for me because I will be out all day; who wants to stay in the room? This is a double bed. There are different categories of rooms on the cruise, and I will try to show you if I can.
There is space for luggage. Look at this bed, all these items are complimentary from Royal Caribbean. This book contains information about all the programs and crew members. There are two hats here. There is a working desk. Whenever you come, remember to bring an international adapter.
There is a luggage rack and a sofa too. I thought, and you might have thought as well, that there would be no attached washroom, but there is an attached washroom. Amazing! It’s worth the money. Look at this washroom, it’s fantastic.
They have provided towels too. As I told you, a detailed vlog of Utopia of the Seas is here for you. They have all the toiletries here. Seeing the room makes me happy.
There is so much here; I thought the room would be small. Because I will be out all day for vlogging and only come back at night, the room is fine for that. I will tell you later how much I paid for this, and I will try to show you different categories of rooms too.
There is a locker here. I will try to show you the suite as well. I think the suites are also on deck 14.
Tell me in the comments how you liked the interior. This is the least expensive room that I have taken. No complaints.
There is a hair dryer and tissues. Everything is good! They have provided laundry stuff here. Amazing! This is.... Oh, there is a fridge.
I'm overwhelmed! This is all brand new. According to the information, the entire cruise was built in France and is operational in the United States. How did you like the entire room and interior? Amazing! I'm overwhelmed! If you like sports and want to play sports on a moving cruise, whether it’s football or basketball, deck 16 is for you. Look here, you can play football and basketball. There is a zip line.
If you go on the zip line, you will get this view. Fantastic! On this side, you can play table tennis; there are different types of tables. On a Royal Caribbean cruise, you also get a FlowRider. Look at this! You can try FlowRider surfing here if you like.
For all these activities, you need to come to deck 16. The journey hasn’t even started yet, and people are already here, enjoying their vacation. I wanted to try the zip line, but they don't allow cameras or mobiles while you're on it. Make sure to try the zip line because you’ll get a great view of the promenade below.
Let me show you; here you can see different table tennis setups. You need to walk a lot on the cruise, so keep eating, drinking, and walking. Here are different table tennis tables. Come to deck 16 and try the sports. There’s another section here, also for sports.
Here are games —this one is indoor, while the previous one was outdoor. Here you can sit comfortably in the AC and play different games. Look at the infrastructure and furniture; the interior is excellent. It's hard to praise it enough.
I guess you can play eSports here. They’ve set up seating for eSports. This is the indoor section, and the outdoor sports section is what I showed you before. If you like sports, come on over. I am on deck 15, and it’s 3:00 in the afternoon.
I am hungry and here for lunch. I am thrilled do you know why? See there. Because I found Indian food here. Here we have papad, I guess this is raita, rice, and paneer butter masala on Royal Caribbean. You can even get butter chicken, as well as beef, naan bread, noodles, and salads—whatever you want. This is a huge area.
What is the name of this place, sir? Windjammer, deck 15 right? There are so many food options on Royal Caribbean, including veg, non-veg, seafood, Italian, Mexican —eat as much as you can. Let me give you a tour. They also have buns. On this side, there are bakery items. Let’s see what they have in sweets. All the food you see here is included in your ticket, so for 3 nights and 4 days, eat as much as you can.
Let’s see what options they have on this side. They have lobsters and other non-veg items, grilled salmon fish, pork, and many different options. I’m showing you briefly; you can take as much as you want.
For the health-conscious, there are fruits like kiwi. How can one person eat so much food! They also have cookies and chips. Let me show you the view from here.
The cruise hasn’t departed yet. Just looking at all these items makes me feel full. Let’s see what they have in favorites section —chicken fingers, French fries, spinach. The items seem endless. Here’s seafood and vegetable stir fry. Look at these sweets —carrot cake, pound cake, pineapple cake, and many more.
I’ll have to decide what to eat and what not. Whenever you are on a cruise, the most important thing is the internet package. This is deck 5, where I entered. Here is the VOOM internet counter.
Let me show you the internet package prices. For one device, it’s $95.97 for three days. They also have surf and stream packages for two devices, three devices, four devices.
If you don’t want a three-day package, you can get a one-day pass for $33.99. The complete list is on your screen. Let's see, maybe I’ll try the one-device plan so I can upload my vlog from here. I think $100 for three days is very reasonable. I don’t think there will be any problem; you can do basic surfing.
With WhatsApp calls, you can stay in touch with your family and friends. This is the elevator section, where you might need to wait. Thank you so much, sir. I've told you all the charges.
This is on deck 5, so come here. It's just the beginning; it’s been only 2-3 hours. There’s more to see from Royal Caribbean.
Right now, I'm on deck 16. If you're here with kids, you must visit this place. Especially with kids. This is heaven for kids. Can you imagine this is on a moving cruise? Keep in mind, all these games are paid.
If you want to play, it's $1 per game. Every game has a cost. There are different game sections. Look at the lighting, it looks amazing.
You either pay directly or it might be charged to your room card. Let me show you. Yes, they're asking for the SeaPass. Everything is charged to your card. Look at all the games and the wonderful lighting.
This is the SeaPass card, which is used for everything. Look at the entire gaming section. It’s delightful. Come here with your kids and explore the games. I don't think once kids enter here, they'll want to leave. The swimming pool is one thing, but this is on another level. See Mario is here!
This is very unique! Look at the games. Finally, after searching a lot, I found the front part of the cruise. Departure time was 4 o'clock; right now, it’s 4:45, but we haven't departed yet. Look at this; this is the front part of Utopia. There's a helipad over there and another cargo ship is docked. Let me show you the entire Port Canaveral terminal.
That tugboat will probably be used for us. Let’s see how much more time it will take. The captain announced that some more passengers are yet to arrive as their flight got delayed.
I don’t know how long the delay will be —maybe 1-1.5 hours. Let me show you the area at the back, which is only for 18 plus. Only alcohol is served here. This is only for people above 18.
I just came to the front to take a round. It's going to take more time for departure. You can see the helipad here. It's not possible to go down there.
This visible area is the bridge from where the entire cruise is controlled. You can understand that it’s not possible to go there. Finally, this is my first cruise journey.
My next cruise journey... This one is from Florida, Port Canaveral, and my next one is from Miami. First, I'll show you this departure, then we’ll talk about what’s next. The cruise will get departed, but the content shouldn't stop, and the cruise tour for you shouldn't stop. I am on deck 4, right at the front.
I have just come to Casino Royale, my favorite place on the cruise. Yes, I’m vlogging, ma’am. It’s vlogging. Thank you! Can I take you on camera? How’s your experience till now? - "Loving it so far!" - How do you find Utopia? - "Love it, it’s lots of fun." - Are the rooms and everything okay? - "Rooms are beautiful." - How are you finding this casino? - "Once it opens, hopefully great."
- Thank you so much for joining. I guess the casino hasn't started yet; people are waiting. Maybe it will open after departure.
Drinks too. The vibe here is different; the scent here is different. I feel like I'm the only Indian on board. Look at this; I guess they haven't started yet. Look at the machines; I don't know much about this stuff.
But for those who love it, and those who have a lot of money, this is for them. Wow! This feels like Marina Bay Sands; it has a similar vibe. Look at the tables, amazing. You’re getting a virtual tour of Utopia's casino.
If you have a lot of money in dollars, come and try your luck. I have no idea about these machines. Here it says Ultimate Texas, minimum amount $10 for a maximum amount $200. $10 means around ₹850 or ₹900. Look at these tables. It just doesn’t end.
Wherever you go, it doesn’t end, it’s here too. I’ll show you in a wide angle, amazing! If you have money, come and try your luck. Everyone is waiting here for the cruise to depart, it seems like people are not going to move from here. Amazing! The time is 6:30, they are saying the departure was at 6:00.
There was no honking, we didn’t even realize the departure. Finally, Utopia is sailing. As far as I can show you… Remember, this is the front side and this is the back side. Wherever your room is, be careful, people often get confused because of this. This is what I showed you earlier… The wind is blowing very fast.
This is the swimming pool area, now you see it’s completely empty because of the evening shows lineup. The Royal Caribbean app will show you everything, you just need to browse the app to see which show is where and at what time, all the information is available there. Look at this view… It's amazing! This cruise is on such a large scale. And this is the first time I am boarding such a big cruise. It’s fun. Anyway, I couldn’t record the departure, no problem.
Now I’ll try to show you the night view when the lights are on. Then see how much fun it’s going to be here. Book a good package or suite, this is the world’s best weekend. Drinks and food will be unlimited, tea, coffee, soft drinks, hard drinks, whatever you want, everything is unlimited. The staff needs to be praised, they are very humble. I would suggest you explore Utopia at least once.
Because of copyrighted songs, I can’t show you the whole show, the show running now is Youtopia, Ice Spectacular. The time is 7 pm to 7:45. I am at Studio B on Deck 4, look at this. You can see Studio B here. The show is around 45 minutes long, but I can’t show you the whole show because of copyright songs. But do watch it, it’s a great show.
The most important thing, whatever show you want to watch here, make an online reservation through the app. Browse the app, you will get all the information there. Look, there’s another show, adult comedy live. The timing is 8:30 to 9:15, venue is deck 4.
And another show is from 10:30 to 11:15. Stay active, all the information is on the app. Currently, the show is running at Studio B.
I can’t show you the whole show. Now I’ll move ahead. There is a lot to see and do here, just stay active. The current time is 7:45. The most important thing, when you book online tickets, you have to select the time for dining.
When I was booking, there were two options, one was 5:30 and the other was 7:30. I chose the 7:30 slot. Now I am on Deck 4, everyone has started their dinner according to their room category. I chose the veg option, here is mixed vegetable paneer curry, rice, chapati, raita, and papad, and they have also given some extra breads. For non-veg, if you like non-veg, there are many options here, I will show the menu on the screen. Taste as much as you want.
This is table number 504, waiters and assistant waiters are assigned table-wise. Look at this interior, I am showing you just one side, luxury is a very small word for this. We are on a moving cruise, we are sailing right now. You don’t feel any jerks here. Now I am having dinner on day 1 of Utopia.
I am a vegetarian, but there are many non-veg items here. The good thing is that Indian food is available here. Luckily, I saw some Indians on board, I met some people.
Food and drinks are ongoing. Let me tell you, I have already walked more than 10,000 steps. The current time is 10 o'clock. I just watched a show at the Echo Theater.
Again, due to copyrighted songs, I couldn’t show you the whole thing, but it was great; make sure to watch it. Be sure to make your reservations through the app beforehand. I thought I’d show you the night view from deck 16, look at this. When the lights are on in Utopia, see how amazing the vibe is. Stand here or sit with your partner, and you will feel very peaceful. Now, the most important thing: the cost.
The interior room is $1000, the balcony room is $1400. The ocean view room is $1400, the balcony room is $1800, and the suite costs around $4000. Prices are dynamic and depend on the date you book. I would suggest booking in advance. I paid in INR, including all taxes, around 1.5 lakhs. 1.5 Lakhs INR.
For 3 nights and 4 days, I think it's worth it because this is the world’s second-biggest cruise. The air feels great here. Since there is glass everywhere, the views outside are very limited. Look over here if you can see anything. Nothing is visible.
We're just moving along. I guess we might have already crossed Miami. On the cruise, some people are playing casino games, some are eating, some are drinking tea or coffee, and some are playing games.
Keep doing whatever you enjoy; there’s so much for your entertainment and time pass, according to your preference. I thought I’d walk a bit up here since I didn’t see much during the day. When the lights are on, it looks fantastic. Now I’ve come to the back part of the cruise, and I’ll show you the view from here.
Look at this. This is where the show in the Echo Theater took place. Look at the waves behind us. The cruise is completely silent now.
Look at that slide, how beautiful it looks at night —the Ultimate Abyss, if I’m pronouncing it correctly. Make sure to try this slide whenever you come to Utopia. I’m ending part 1 here because there’s so much to show on this cruise. I’ll show you the gym, Central Park, and everything else in part 2.
Tomorrow morning, we’ll reach Perfect CocoCay, and I’ll give you all the details about the docking time. This is Dolesh, signing off from 200 Journeys. All you can see is water, nothing else.
You won’t see anything else. I’ll see you in the next vlog; watch the entire series, which I’m making in about 3-4 parts. I’m giving you all the costing and other details in the description. Look at the night view of Utopia, how beautiful it looks. After your dinner and all the shows, take a walk here with your partner or kids; it’s very peaceful, far from pollution and noise.
I’ll see you in the next part; take good care of yourself.
