What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

The sushi restaurant was spectacular. Five out of five stars.

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels

Was it worth the money? Hells yeah. And will I do it again? Definitely.

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels

So, five out of five stars. And really honestly after today, this is like right up there for me with Kona Cafe at the Polynesian.

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels

I can confidently say this is possibly the best meal I've ever had here at Okot.

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels

Can't recommend it enough. You guys, if you're visiting Epcot, come to Canada and dine at Leelier. It is so worth it.

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels
The Watch-outs

the main Casino Royale smells like an ashtray you could smell it from the hallways actually That's How Strong that smell of smoke was

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels

I just can't get over the fact that none of this will be here.

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels

Could I sail in this stateroom for a week? Probably not.

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels

I think there are less characters this year than in previous uh festivals.

🥉KnowledgeableHank’s Travels

Is it cool? Yeah. Is it worth an hour or two hours waiting in line? No, it's not.

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Hank’s Travels.

  1. Use a travel advisor for cruise and park vacations to get the best deals and insider tips.

  2. Book with a professional to avoid missing out on experiences you might not know about.

  3. Consider the solo studio cabin for efficient use of space.

  4. Use the drawer space and shelving for organization.

  5. Feel free to reach out if you're interested in booking Norwegian Cruise Line.

  6. Grab a solo studio cabin as soon as possible because they tend to sell out quickly.

  7. Use the studio lounge as a secret weapon to avoid the crowded buffet.

  8. Consider a solo studio for a weekend cruise, but not for a full week if you prefer more space.
