What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œThis is my favorite place on the whole ship. And I actually can't imagine being on a cruise ship and it not having a boardwalk going forward.”

β€œAnd it really is a beautiful port. Definitely worth getting off at.”

β€œThe bed was super comfy. So, I don't know the size of it. It felt huge, but it was a really comfy bed.”

β€œIt's nice and safe and bright and a great place for kids to play in swim nappies.”

β€œthe cocktail bars are incredible.”

The Watch-outs

β€œThe prices are extortionate. It's a minefield. So, what we're going to do is in this series is I'm going to break down the booking process.”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Mini Travellers, Family Travel Made Easy.

  1. Take the sea bus (water taxi) from the new port to the old port to avoid a long walk and heat.

  2. Pay for the sea bus in cash (€2.50 per person each way).

  3. To avoid crowds, walk away from the Little Venice area and head into the middle of town through the quiet, crooked streets.

  4. Save the port area for last so you can shop and eat without carrying bags.

  5. Always ask to see a menu first to check prices before ordering at tavernas.

  6. Visit the church on the hill (Agios Ioannis) for a peaceful view and great photos.

  7. Consider deck 10 for better views over lifeboats.

  8. Take your own hair dryer as the provided one isn't very strong.
