Matt's Moments description on YouTube:

Every airline has a backstory. Every train route has something most passengers never notice. Every city has a way of getting around that nobody talks about. Hi, I'm Matt — and Matt's Moments is where I tell those stories. Wings, wheels, rails, or waves — if it moves, I want to be on it and tell you what it's actually like. The channel covers the full spectrum: airline reviews, train journeys, tram rides, bus routes, cruise ships, unique hotel stays, city transport deep-dives, city-to-airport adventures most travel channels completely ignore, and on-location globetrotting videos from wherever the journey takes me. Every video comes with the real cost, a dive into the history behind the transport, and a straight-up verdict on whether it's worth your money. Some of it's premium. Some of it's budget. All of it's honest. If it moves, we're boarding. Subscribe and ride along.

What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

that was my first helicopter ride ever and what a way to do it on Victoria Falls scenery such a beautiful quick Scenic flight loved it

We're about 312 hours aboard Celebrity Edge out of Sydney on an epic New Zealand adventure.

That was a long fun trip, but uh thanks for following along and hope you enjoyed it like we did.

We found out the exact time we are coming into Sydney and set our alarms to wake up to this amazing view of the opera house and the skyline.

Takes casual dining to another level. Fresh air, smoky aromas, and that unmistakable view that makes every meal unforgettable.

The Watch-outs

I'm rating this airline one out of five for its comfort.

that line was ridiculously timed long about an hour away

some of these string cars are smell like pure Funk trying to be mindful stay fresh clothes and you feel better too

This quake, which was 6.3 in magnitude, caused a central spire and large portions of the structure to collapse.

The whole purpose, I think, of these New Zealand cruises is being able to cruise the sounds and caution to the wind.

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Matt's Moments.

  1. Use the safe.

  2. Do not pull the hair dryer out because it's connected to the electric.

  3. Know that large luggage fits under the bed.

  4. Use the provided layout from cruisemapper.com to plan your cabin setup

  5. Utilize drawer space between beds if needed

  6. Bring a power strip with no third prong to avoid issues with cruise line restrictions.

  7. Bring a travel adapter for European plugs if needed.

  8. Book a third-party excursion for Hobbiton to save money, but be aware the ship won't wait for you.
