Creator's Key Takeaways
I think it's probably it's safer than just going somewhere by yourself you're in a group you have people who are checking on on you all the time
I have found that I'll just sit down at a at a table and anybody who's beside me I'll just start chatting or people will come along and say are these seats taken and they'll sit down with you
I think that's a good place to start River Cruise people are very friendly and want to share their experiences
The real Advantage is in cruising itself you get on the ship you only unpack once that's one advantage
