What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œOverall, I have to say this ship is absolutely incredible. And if you get a chance to sail on this ship or even a Icon class ship, it's definitely worth it.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages

β€œThe performances, the whole production, um the people that they have that are doing the gymnasts and the synchronized swimmers and the high dive acts are just no words can really explain a aqua show on Royal Caribbean.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages

β€œIf you're looking for go go go adventure, if you're looking for fun and screams and uh thrills, I definitely recommend the adventure park.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages

β€œAnd honestly, I am loving what I see so far. Because after seeing what they did with Icon and Star, I already know that this is going to be another game changer.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages

β€œIf you're looking for go-go fun adventure, some cool pictures and a blast as well as food is included in your excursion and your transportation is included to and from, I would definitely recommend this excursion.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages
The Watch-outs

β€œhe went into the container and then, you know, with his bare hands took the cherries and put them in both the drinks. Um, no tongs were used or no um, gloves.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages

β€œthe cheese bread, if you are familiar with the Brazilian steakhouse, came out cold and solid as a rock.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages

β€œHe was not funny at all. And some of the jokes that he was saying was a little bit too much I felt like.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages

β€œbetween the main dining room and the buffet the food on Norwegian is just not it. I mean and I like food too. So it's just not it.”

πŸ₯ˆExpertSavvy Voyages

β€œTo me, that was a bad I have to say bad design layout on where they put um the ice skating rink because that was that was not a good mood.”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Savvy Voyages.

  1. Review booking confirmation carefully to ensure names match passports exactly.

  2. Download the cruise line mobile app early to manage reservations and check-in.

  3. Research and book shore excursions and specialty dining in advance to avoid sell-outs.

  4. Arrive at your departure port 1-2 days early to avoid flight or weather delays.

  5. Complete online check-in as soon as it becomes available.

  6. Keep medications, travel documents, and valuables in your carry-on bag, not checked luggage.

  7. Rent cabanas on the app while they are on sale to avoid higher prices on the day of sailing.

  8. Bring Dramamine or Bonine for the ferry ride to Kazumel as it can be very bumpy.
