Skro's Nest
🥉Knowledgeable CreatorSkro's Nest description on YouTube:
I’m Randy Skroback from Tucson, Arizona. My wife & I have been cruising since 2007. Due to difficulty walking long distances, I now use a mobility scooter—especially on cruise ships. Before a 2021 cruise, I searched YouTube for videos about cruising with a scooter or wheelchair, but found very little useful content. That inspired me to create “SKRO’S NEST” where I share real-world tips, honest reviews, and practical advice for cruising with a mobility scooter. Whether you cruise on Wheels or on Feet, you’ll find helpful insights to make your trip smoother and more enjoyable. I show both the good and the not-so-good to help others be better prepared. If you find my videos helpful, please SUBSCRIBE—it really helps support the channel. If you’d like to go a step further, I’d be incredibly grateful if you became a A PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/c/skrosnest/membership or Channel MEMBER! Every bit helps me keep creating content that makes cruising more accessible for everyone!

What Creators Are Saying About Skro's Nest
A Carnival Cruise Line passenger from Georgia is facing charges after deputies say he struck two children aboard Carnival Glory during a cruise from Port Canaveral.
Doug Parker
It's definitely interesting how you can order Chinese and Mexican flavors at the same table.
TravelTouristVideos
The Disney Wish left Port Canaveral on July 27th, but within hours it had to turn around after a passenger suffered a serious medical emergency.
Paul
Every single one of these were completely avoidable. There's a line on a cruise ship, and most folks have no idea where it actually is until they've already crossed it.
Terry
She is one of those ships that regulars refer to almost like an old friend, familiar, warm, and always ready to show you a good time.
