What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œThe headline return on investment and uh I want to be precise here is the service. Full stop. Viking screw is genuinely extraordinary.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œViking ocean is a retreat that happens to be moving. And once you've experienced that, it's very hard to go back.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œIf you want a butler with no constraints, someone who will put your preferred wine in the fridge because you mentioned it once, and who you can reach on WhatsApp”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œThe crew was out there squeegeeing the dance floor the second the rain stopped so the party wouldn't die.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œIt's the premium sweet spot. It feels like a private club that doesn't check your bank account every time you order a cappuccino.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life
The Watch-outs

β€œThe systematic calculated bureaucratic removal of identity. The name replaced with a number. The clothing taken, the hair taken.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œDon't take your flashy jewelry on this into South America. Just don't do it. We had people who had you know, a necklace ripped off their neck.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œThe subscription that Oceanana has for this class, Starlink, they're just too small. So, for the number of people, it gets saturated really quickly.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œA standard room or lower is going to have a very small bathroom. It is the biggest complaint I think I've ever seen uh from a cruise ship.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œThe trains are very cost effective. We did talk to another guest who went she paid Ubers to go to Shabuya on her own and she paid over $270. So, good lord, don't do that.”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Go Travel Life.

  1. Always read the specific terms and conditions for each referral program as they change frequently.

  2. For Explorer Journeys, the referred guest must use the custom link to create their account before placing a booking.

  3. Check with a travel advisor before booking to see if any referral programs have recently expired.

  4. Slow down long enough to notice and ask the right questions.

  5. Practice anticipatory compassion by considering how your actions affect others.

  6. Sit at the table and argue constructively to reach compromises.

  7. Keep automatic gratuities if service was as expected or better to help crew reach target earnings.

  8. Remove gratuities and log a formal complaint via guest services only if there is a documented service failure.
