What Creators Are Saying
Selected quotes from our creator panel.
“So, would I sail with Royal Caribbean again after this short cruise? The answer is absolutely yes.”
“Honestly, this tour was the absolute highlight of my entire British Isles trip.”
“so would I recommend the p and O Britannia Caribbean cruise for a New Year's Eve celebration without a doubt”
“It's one of those ports that might not be the one you're most excited about before the cruise, but it's often the one you look back on and think, I'm really glad we stopped there.”
“Lacaruna becomes one of the most enjoyable ports of the cruise.”
“Embarcation on this sailing was chaotic. We arrived around our allocated time, but there was already a long queue outside the terminal.”
“On my recent Sky Princess cruise, someone missed the all aboard time in Civitavecchia. They didn't make it back in time and the ship sailed without them.”
“Sindu was a let down. I've had brilliant meals at Synindu on Avia, Ventura, and Britannia, but this time it just didn't hit the mark.”
“the ship was absolutely packed with over 6,000 on board and securing a sunbed felt like a competitive sport”
“One of the most common mistakes on Iona is leaving dining decisions too late.”
Pro Tips From Creators

If you need to do laundry, note that Liberty of the Seas doesn't have passenger laundrettes.
Book Anne Frank House tickets 6 weeks in advance if visiting Amsterdam.
