Biggest And Fastest Growing Cruise Vlogger Channels

I have updated the list I have of all the cruise vlog channels on YouTube, and compared with the same data a year ago. There are a wide range of channels, and many new ones that I have only come to know and discover since starting this list a year ago. Please check out the channels you have not heard of before.

Full list of 98 channels

You can see the full list of the 98 channels I am aware of. If any are missing, please email me or leave a comment on this post and they will be added in the next update at the end of June. The channels are ranked by subscribers as displayed on their YouTube page. But you can sort them alphabetically, by country, all time views (which is based on the data from SocialBlade).

These are the key things that stand out for me looking year-on-year. Please leave a comment with any that strike you.

  1. Overall there has been a very noticeable increase in subscribers and views across all the list. This presumably reflects the re-opening of travel and cruising with new content and people more eager to watch cruise content.
  2. There are now 8 channels with over 100,000 subscribers, compared to just 2 a year ago.
    1. These are Tips For Travellers (258,000), La Lido Loca (161,000), Don’s Family Vacations (154,000), Cruise With Ben & David (139,000), Royal Caribbean Blog (137,000), Emma Cruises (120,000), The Ship Life (102,000) and EECC Travels (100,000)
    2. 6 are USA based, 3 of these are UK-Based and 1 is Canada-based.
    3. The 5 fastest growing channels in terms of subscribers in the last year have been Tips For Travellers +85,000, La Lido Loca +83,100, Emma Cruises +72,000, The Ship Life +52,100 and Don’s Family Vacations +49,000
    4. There are 4 channels moving especially fast up the rankings over the last year based on subscriber growth. These are Life Well Cruised +39,470, Cruise Passion +31,400, Chris Wong Vlogs +20,300 and Griff & Alyssa +19,500

Most views in one year

The 5 channels with the most views in the last year have been Tips For Travellers (23,200,000), La Lido Loca (22,900,000), Don’s Family Vacations (16,400,00), Cruise Passion (15,000,000) and Emma Cruises (12,860,000)

This list is permanently on my blog where the latest update is listed at https://www.tipsfortravellers.com/top-cruise-vloggers/

NOTE: Channels about cruising exclusively are the ones on this list. For purposes of this list, if at least 45 out of the last 50 videos on the channel are cruise-related topics they are considered “cruise channels” for this list. Without this the list becomes unmanageable!

In 2005, I launched Tips for Travellers to make it easy and fun for people to discover, plan and enjoy incredible cruise vacations based on my first-hand advice and tips from going on well over 100 and counting cruises. I have most subscribed to cruise-focused vlogger channel on YouTube.

    I did not see Let’s Go! Travel Tips. Allison and Gordon have 6.79k subscribers. They are delightful! Check them out if you haven’t. Congratulations and best wishes on your continued success.

    Hey Gary! I did not see The Tyler Show or Travel With Nick on the list. They are some great channels and have really blown up in the past year

    • Thanks, had not come across those two. I had added them to buy spreadsheet. In next update will likely have to only list the top 100 as getting too many! These would make that cut right now!

  4. Liz says:

    Stelbot Adventures is a newer channel that covers all kinds of travel – cruising, RV life, all inclusive, etc.

    • Thanks for this channel. Will check it out but only channels that are 90% – 100% cruise content I am putting on the list or it gets unmanageable. So channels that are about cruising only pretty much

  5. Kristy Conrad says:

    Hey, Gary – don’t forget about me! Kristy Conrad (yes, my name is the channel name) with a fabulous 66 subscribers. I primarily do shorts, though, so maybe you want to keep your list to channels with longer videos. Thank you, sir!

  6. Andy Colonna says:

    Hi Gary! Our channel is ARC Adventures! We were mainly a cruise channel but of course, like everyone, had to branch out due to the pandemic.. thanks for the great info!!
