What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œThe orange party. You've heard of these legendary orange parties. Holland is a Dutch line. Orange is the color of Dutch royalty.”

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€œThat traveler Viking will ruin every other cruise line for them.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œThe cost of Club Orange was only $850. So, it was well worth it for us.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œHolland America rewards people who know what they're doing. Now you know.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life
The Watch-outs

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

πŸ₯ˆExpertGo Travel Life

β€œIf you have mobility issues, you're claustrophobic, that it's a challenge to get in out of a tiny place like that, you might want to consider one of the other ships.”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Go Travel Life.

  1. Book shore excursions as soon as they open because the best ones fill up fast.

  2. Assess whether you want Club Orange at booking time for the best value.

  3. Use your free specialty dining credit at the most expensive restaurant to maximize value.

  4. Download the Navigator app before arriving at the terminal to save time.

  5. Check your drink package details before boarding as price points have changed.

  6. Be honest with yourself about whether you prefer a butler or managing your own schedule.

  7. Consider if you want the option of a big ship's amenities or a calmer, adults-only atmosphere.

  8. Factor in the total cost, including Wi-Fi, laundry, and specialty dining, when comparing prices.
