Creator's Key Takeaways

I would be really happy with a small cruise or a big cruise I've loved all of the cruises we've been on on a small ship or a larger ship

the crew can get to know you better and some of our family was cruising actually they were on a Viking River cruise

there's gonna be less crowds so the facilities might be smaller because the ship is smaller however there aren't as many people as well

smaller ships also can offer some uniqueness in the itinerary that they can offer because they are smaller they're able to get into more ports

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Check if the smaller ship has been refurbished within the last 7-8 years
βœ“Consider stabilizers if you are susceptible to motion sickness
βœ“Book balcony rooms early due to limited availability on smaller ships
