Creator's Key Takeaways

I cruise a lot and I always sail with travel insurance. You should too.

The food was consistently mediocre is the best way I can describe it.

I thought the service on Celestial Discovery was really really good.

Santorini was by far the most crowded of any of the Greek islands we were on.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Don't prepare yourself for a relaxing cruise; recognize it's a go-go-go itinerary.
βœ“Consider booking excursions to see highlights due to short port times.
βœ“Be thoughtful about purchasing drink or dining packages due to limited ship time.
βœ“Be open to a multinational experience and don't bring your Americanness to the cruise.

Ship differences from North American cruises β€” Recognize that things will be different but not bad; be open to the multinational experience.
Short port times and rushing β€” Book excursions to make the most of limited time in each port.
Value of drink/dining packages β€” Be thoughtful about purchasing packages due to limited ship time.
