The Good

β€œThis cruise just keeps getting better. It's It's just amazing.”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales

β€œMy goodness, this is a beautiful meal. Highly recommend this place.”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales

β€œLiterally, this is a view off our balcony. And if I scan around here, these are all glaciers, and we've got them from our balcony view.”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales

β€œAnd honestly, it's one of the best trips that we've ever done.”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales

β€œWe booked a circumnavigation catamaran cruise around Antigga through PO and honestly this is one of the best trips we have ever done.”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales
The Watch-outs

β€œI've never ever seen a theater where over half of the audience walked out.”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales

β€œThey looked us in the eye in the theater and they lied. They said, 'Don't worry, we've charted another flight. You're going to be leaving at the same time.'”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales

β€œThey barefaced lied to us and told us that the flights was on time and that they got a new plane for us and they barefaced lied to us to get us off the cruise ship.”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales

β€œThe ship was creaking. It was rocking. It was swaying. These videos do not show how bad that experience was.”

πŸ₯‰KnowledgeableTaste Trekker Tales

β€œNo clue why they insist on everybody doing it at the same time but it's by far our worst experience.”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Taste Trekker Tales.

  1. Come to see the Boots and Blades show.

  2. Check out the thermal suite; it is worth the extra cost for the couple's deal.

  3. If visiting Norway, watch Life in Norway on YouTube for destination insights.

  4. Use your SeaPass to do the muster so you don't have to go to your cabin to get your card.

  5. If you want to avoid the buffet crowds, try eating breakfast at the poolside cafΓ©.

  6. Head to the helipad area at the front of the ship for a quiet spot with seating.

  7. Check out the free pizza in Sorrento's on embarkation day.

  8. Be aware that the cantilever hot tubs in the solarium are very hot.
