About our Bacon Score methodologyStandout creator quotes
“This was really one of the best travel experiences and cruises that we have ever done.”
“I think everybody should be up there everybody should try weightless weightlessness and everybody should try to look at the Earth from up there because you come back kind of changed”
“The only thing that I could say that was maybe something I liked a little bit less was the fact that for evening in particular, you really did have to make up your mind and know in advance where you were reserving your dinner for.”
“I just want to get off this ship and go home they've ruined New Zealand and Australia for me”
