Lois : No Cruise Control description on YouTube:

Welcome! I’m Lois, I’m a Specialist Nurse in the NHS and a Cruise content creator! I have quite a niche job, which can be very sad, so my way to maintain my resilience is to cruise! To set sail and switch off! I’d love to share this with you and inspire you to cruise! Having spent over 530 days at sea, on 20 different Cruise Lines, I hope to show you that Cruising really is the best way to travel and the choice of different cruise line is immense! Subscribe to watch my NCL, Azamara, Silversea, Seabourn, Celebrity, National Geographic, Windstar, Virgin Voyages, Disney Cruise Line, Explora Journeys, MSC Yacht Club, Majestic Line, Ponant Le Bellot plus many more over this next year. Over the next year I’ll be cruising the Scottish islands, the Med, Antarctica and the Arctic and much more on some very exciting cruise lines.

What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

we loved the hammock so much uh it's just so comfortable and just the most amazing idea

would definitely stay in a junior suite on morel explorer again definitely without a doubt

Stay tuned for some stunning views, unforgettable experiences, shore excursions and lots of penguins, loads of penguins.

Being Welsh, I'm so happy, and I've got lots of presents for my fellow Welshies.

I'm so excited, like super super excited to see them.

The Watch-outs

The shore excursions on this cruise are incredibly expensive. There would be like four $400 each for some of the cru uh trips.

I've cruised with Azamara before. I don't remember them being so expensive, but literally a a trip on a ribbo was about $400 each each.

there's loads of dead flies in the pool includes and loads of them so I don't fancy them

the only thing i'd say about this bathroom is the water pressure it's a bit pathetic

the fireworks were really really nice but i watched them from my balcony just because i don't know i feel it's quite i don't know not very responsible to put loads of people together
