Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Paul and Carole Love to Travel.

  1. When staying at Voco in Southampton, bring your cases down to breakfast on embarkation day so they can be put in lockup for convenience.

  2. If visiting St. Gloss Cathedral, you don't have to pay to enter, but a donation is appreciated.

  3. Make sure you bring a power bank so you can pop it by your bed because there are no plugs or USBs by the bedside.

  4. If you see the Pinnacle game show on the program on a Cunard cruise, go and see it because it's been good fun.

  5. Check out other ocean view reviews on Queen Victoria for comparison.

  6. Freeze a large plastic bottle of water and place it behind your fan to make it blow cold air.

  7. When joining Patreon, use a desktop rather than Apple Pay to avoid high transaction fees.

  8. When booking transport, agree on a price before getting into a taxi to avoid being ripped off.
