Tips For Travellers description on YouTube:

If you want to get cruising right, my Tips For Travellers makes it fun and easy to discover, plan and enjoy an incredible cruise vacation every time. There are so many choices that have to be made at every stage of your cruise vacation. If you make the wrong choices, like I have done in the past, you and your family won't have that incredible experience you are dreaming of. I learnt that enjoyable and memorable cruise vacations don't happen by chance. They are made and crafted through being well-informed, and then making intelligent choices at every single stage. That's why, I set up Tips For Travellers to help travellers who want to get cruising right, the advice, tips and tricks to make it easier to plan and have a memorable experience every time. All my tips draw on everything that I have learnt on the 95 cruises I have done to date. If you want to get cruising right, subscribe and start making it easier to have those incredible cruise experiences you dream of right now.

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Tips For Travellers.

  1. Stay on top of constantly changing visa and entry rules for South America.

  2. Choose the right itinerary for your interests, such as the 2-week Santiago to Buenos Aires option for first-timers.

  3. Be prepared for rough seas and many sea days, and ensure your cruise line has good sea day activities.

  4. Understand that South America ports are working ports with limited self-exploration; plan for excursions.

  5. Book excursions before boarding, as they sell out quickly and are costly.

  6. Pack for unpredictable weather, including layers and rain gear.

  7. Be cautious with US dollars; damaged bills may not be accepted.

  8. Use layers and a raincoat with a hood for Iceland weather.
