Creator's Key Takeaways

Okay, cruisers, do not do this, especially if you're a new cruiser, because you're going to think that you hate cruising, when actually you're just not doing it right.

My boyfriend is currently on a cruise with his brother, and he's not having a good time because he's making this mistake.

Port is today in Ocho Rios, and was really turned off by the super aggressive pushy vendors, including people that tried to sell him illicit products, substances, and prostitutes.

My advice, do an excursion.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Do an excursion to get away from port areas

✓Take a taxi to somewhere further off the beaten path

✓Do your homework before a cruise
