What Creators Are Saying
Selected quotes from our creator panel.
βSo, would I sail with Royal Caribbean again after this short cruise? The answer is absolutely yes.β
βHonestly, this tour was the absolute highlight of my entire British Isles trip.β
βso would I recommend the p and O Britannia Caribbean cruise for a New Year's Eve celebration without a doubtβ
βIt'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.β
βLacaruna becomes one of the most enjoyable ports of the cruise.β
βEmbarcation on this sailing was chaotic. We arrived around our allocated time, but there was already a long queue outside the terminal.β
βOn 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.β
βSindu 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.β
βthe ship was absolutely packed with over 6,000 on board and securing a sunbed felt like a competitive sportβ
βOne of the most common mistakes on Iona is leaving dining decisions too late.β
