What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

β€œJapan, frankly, is showing off, and we love it for that.”

β€œthe food there are 370 cruise ships worldwide and we believe this ship has the best restaurant of all of them”

β€œstepping onto the MS troll fiord in Bergen might just be the most stress-free embarcation we've ever experienced”

β€œwe've just had the best lunch I think we've ever had on embarcation and probably on any ship on any ship at any time”

β€œthis is the ultimate Norway Cruise as far as I'm concerned there's no other cruise that calls in so many places and gets so far north”

The Watch-outs

β€œwhen you go underwater with it the refraction of the water on the lens is causes the stitching to be so bad it misses whole pieces out of the actual visual 360”

β€œthe scones were almost inedible being overcooked as dense as a diamond very dry and we could swear there was no sugar in them at all bland tasteless and slightly bitter”

β€œthe insta 360 X3 is a great little camera I mean it's had a ton of brilliant reviews on YouTube by some huge YouTubers but there's one thing about it that's utterly rubbish”

β€œthe results otherwise are well let's face it unusable”

β€œafternoon tea is included in your fair but unfortunately it was a very disappointing experience”

Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Visit With Us (Rich and Helen).

  1. Take the scenic bus J20 in Aomori to reach the Big Buddha as it is easier than deciphering local transport.

  2. Use Google Maps for navigating Japanese tram systems.

  3. In Kochi, visit the brewery on the hill for great views and local beer.

  4. When visiting Japanese castles, be prepared for very steep stairs.

  5. The jump to a deluxe veranda is usually modest and well worth it to gain access to the mini bar, coffee machine, and specialty restaurant pre-booking.

  6. Book specialty restaurants ahead of time as they are popular and reservations are limited.

  7. Book Ladam early if you're a serious foodie.

  8. Reserve the Salt Chef's Table before you board.
