Creator's Key Takeaways

We got here super easy. The guys at our hotel got us a taxi. We came right here. It was reasonable and easy.

We got the spa package this time and we can't wait to take advantage of it all.

One of the things that we love about the NCL ships, especially of the breakaway class, is that they all have these gorgeous chandeliers.

It's something you have to do at least once in your life.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Make sure you have your NCL luggage tags on and ready to go.
Always tip the porter $2 per bag.
Have your passports out and ready to go along with your boarding documents.
Once you unpack your bags, put your suitcases underneath the bed.
Bring magnet hooks for extra storage in the bathroom.
