Dream Then Do description on YouTube:

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. We've traveled as a couple for 2 decades and have been traveling with our kids for more than 13 years, and we believe travel and adventure doesn’t have to stop with kids. 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.

The Good

We highly recommend getting out on an upper deck to enjoy the city lights and the forts as the ship goes by.

🥈ExpertDream Then Do

We have just finished our time in both Jasper National Park and the Ice Fields Parkway. Two very magical destinations we highly recommend.

🥈ExpertDream Then Do

This happened to be the funnest ship we've ever been on.

🥈ExpertDream Then Do

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.

🥈ExpertDream Then Do

Vesteralen is a hidden gem, a peaceful, pristine, and wild land that we absolutely love exploring.

🥈ExpertDream Then Do
The Watch-outs

Getting from island to island on one cruise port day was already a logistical challenge and now it was becoming a logistical nightmare.

🥈ExpertDream Then Do

Princess, we do not like your motion lights

🥈ExpertDream Then Do

Our biggest lesson learned at this port was to bring US cash.

🥈ExpertDream Then Do

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.

🥈ExpertDream Then Do

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.

  1. Bring US cash for taxis in St. Thomas and St. John as they do not accept credit cards.

  2. Bring hiking poles for the steep and rocky trails.

  3. Allot at least 8 hours in port if planning to visit St. John from St. Thomas.

  4. Allow at least 30 minutes for drive time from the ferry back to the cruise ship dock.

  5. Take a smaller car to El Yunque to help with parking.

  6. Arrive at the El Yunque trailhead early to secure a parking spot.

  7. Check the El Yunque website for closures related to hurricane damage.

  8. Be aware that private tours can run longer than planned due to traffic flexibility.
