🥈Expert CreatorCruise Monkeys description on YouTube:
Welcome to the Cruise Monkeys channel, if you didn't know, we are bananas about cruising! We are a CLIA-registered travel agent. We’re not here to ‘influence’, we just love bringing you along on our adventures through our vlogs. More info 👇 We are British cruisers, based in the U.K. and we started cruising in 2014. We have now done over 40 cruises! When you watch our vlogs, we want you to feel you are on a cruise with us - these videos should give you a really good idea what day to day life on a cruise is like for us. While everyone is different and want different things from their cruises, we just love sharing our experiences with you as they happen.

Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Cruise Monkeys.
Book specialty dining early for better availability.
Consider rearranging dining times to enjoy evening deck activities.
Use the QR code on screen for cruise quotes.
For the itinerary with long excursions, pick one or the other and do the cruise again if possible.
If you can afford it, it's worth paying to pick your cabin number.
If you're not a big drinker, the drinks package probably isn't worth it.
Get your name on the group cruise wait lists if interested.
For a first time in Rome, consider an excursion due to the distance from the port.
