We are a family of 4 plus our Siberian Husky who love the outdoors, hiking, and traveling. With budgeting and savings in mind, we enjoy many modes of travel—travel trailer, rooftop tent, backpack, cruise ship, or hotel.

Whether you choose to hike, camp, cruise, or overland, we want to inspire you to put your dreams into action by giving you tips and tricks for destinations and deals, so you can adventure better and Dream Then Do! #familytravel #hiking #adventureswithkids #DreamThenDo

What Creators Are Saying
Selected quotes from our creator panel.
“We highly recommend getting out on an upper deck to enjoy the city lights and the forts as the ship goes by.”
“We have just finished our time in both Jasper National Park and the Ice Fields Parkway. Two very magical destinations we highly recommend.”
“This happened to be the funnest ship we've ever been on.”
“All in all, we had a wonderful time on the Independence of the Seas, and being on an older ship certainly didn't affect the fun we had on board.”
“Vesteralen is a hidden gem, a peaceful, pristine, and wild land that we absolutely love exploring.”
“Getting from island to island on one cruise port day was already a logistical challenge and now it was becoming a logistical nightmare.”
“Princess, we do not like your motion lights”
“Our biggest lesson learned at this port was to bring US cash.”
“If you do a private guided tour, is to be aware that since the private tours are so flexible, the extra hours add up fast, especially with traffic.”
“This interior room has to be like the smallest one we've ever had”
Pro Tips From Creators
The most-shared advice for Dream Then Do.
Bring US cash for taxis in St. Thomas and St. John as they do not accept credit cards.
Bring hiking poles for the steep and rocky trails.
Allot at least 8 hours in port if planning to visit St. John from St. Thomas.
Allow at least 30 minutes for drive time from the ferry back to the cruise ship dock.
Take a smaller car to El Yunque to help with parking.
Arrive at the El Yunque trailhead early to secure a parking spot.
Check the El Yunque website for closures related to hurricane damage.
Be aware that private tours can run longer than planned due to traffic flexibility.
