Creator's Key Takeaways

I think Royal Caribbean's anthem of the Seas is the best cruise ship in the world

we had a fantastic cruise on anthem of the Seas this was about as close to the perfect cruise as we've experienced

the Carnival Vista is also the first carnival ship to feature an uncrowded adults only area at the back of the ship known as the Havana pool area

our five-day cruise in the owner suite of the Norwegian Pearl was the number one best cruise experience we've ever had

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Consider the Anthem of the Seas for a top-tier cruise experience
βœ“Explore Carnival's private destinations for better value
βœ“Try the Haven on Norwegian for a VIP experience
βœ“Book a balcony on an Alaska cruise for incredible views

YouTube Video Description↓

After 42 cruises, I take a look back at the best cruise I've taken with four major cruise lines: Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Norwegian, and Princess. You'll find out what I think is the best cruise ship in the world, which cruise line I've sailed the most with, see the luxury cruise experience that can be had if you're willing to pay the big bucks, and find out about the one cruise destination that was far more beautiful than all of the others. Special emphasis on two very special ships: Anthem Of The Seas, and the Carnival Vista... certainly two of the best cruise ships serving North America right now. This is an updated version of a video that I first published on YouTube back in May of 2016. People have still been watching that video lately, and I feel bad about it because it was two years out of date. Specifically, the information about Carnival and Norwegian needed to be updated since we've had some great cruises with those two lines in the two years since the original version of this video. So, this current version offers my honest opinions as of December 2017. Special note: YouTube has disabled the ability to comment on this video. It wasn't me that disabled comments!
