Nana & Poppy Travels description on YouTube:

Hi. We are Ali and Chuck, aka Nana and Poppy. We love to get away on cruise ships whenever possible. We love cruising because you can be as active or inactive as you wish. On some cruises we like to be active and try everything, other cruises we like to simply nap and eat. On land we enjoy running, cycling and spending time with our kids and grandkids. Come join us for our adventures.

What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

We can't recommend a multi-generational cruise highly enough.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels

I really like it. It's it's the biggest ship that's ever been to Long Beach or Los Angeles.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels

It has been a fantastic cruise and uh we should do it again in March.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels

Not my first cruise, but first cruise on Quantum of the Seas was amazing, just because the service is so great.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels

My favorite part was cruising with all of you. I love you guys so much.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels
The Watch-outs

The number one thing we're going to mention is really a health and safety issue. We did not like that there weren't any handwashing stations walking into the Wind Jammer buffet.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels

I hate it when we have to get off the ship.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels

Hand sanitizer does not protect against the Noro virus. For this, you need soap and water.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels

We decided to go back to the ship and eat.

🥉KnowledgeableNana & Poppy Travels

I'd say the cost was worth it, but not something I would want to do again.

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Nana & Poppy Travels.

  1. Check the Royal Caribbean app for activity schedules and to snag spots for free experiences.

  2. Ask crew members about when free experiences will open for the next port day.

  3. Consider the thermal spa pass only if you get a good deal, as the regular price may not be worth it.

  4. For dining, try the appetizers at the pub or Vintages for a cheaper alternative to specialty dining.

  5. Carry on kids' swimsuits to keep them busy while waiting for cabins.

  6. Take advantage of the crown lounge for breakfast.

  7. Try the backstage tour if you have the opportunity.

  8. Pack efficiently for the last day of the cruise.
