Creator's Key Takeaways

We thought we knew the NCL Getaway… until we explored every deck ourselves.

This is a complimentarily adults only. Only 18 year olds or above are supposed to be in here.

One of our favorite spots on any ship is your spa area and that is located here on the forward of deck 15.

We had kids when we were sailing at NCL. They loved coming to Splash Academy and quite frankly as a parents, we loved dropping them off.

Creator's Tips & Advice

YouTube Video Description

We thought we knew the NCL Getaway… until we explored every deck ourselves. Join Jan and Tracey as we take you on a full ship tour of Norwegian Cruise Line’s Getaway—one of the Breakaway-class favorites that still surprises us at every turn. From the Waterfront promenade to O’Sheehan’s Pub, the Thermal Spa, Haven suites, and pool decks, we’ll show you why this ship remains a fan favorite for Caribbean and trans-Atlantic cruises. If you’re comparing NCL Getaway Breakaway or Escape, or just dreaming about your next Norwegian cruise, this walkthrough has everything you need to know before you sail. #NCLGetaway #NorwegianCruiseLine #CruiseShipTour #JanAndTraceyTravels #NCLBreakawayClass Our Recommended Cruise Gear OREI American to European Plug Adapters—Many cruise ships are equipped with 220 European plugs, which are useless unless you have the correct adapter. These are the essentials we pack in our bags every time we cruise or travel to Europe. They come in an affordable six pack which you can find at this link: https://amzn.to/44ixS0U Strongman Tools Strong Magnetic Hooks—A couple of these 6-pack sets of hooks are always with us when we cruise. Each individual hook can hold up to 30 lbs of weight and is ideal for hanging coats, hats, and the shelves described below. Get your set of these useful magnetic hooks at this link: https://amzn.to/3UDrVbJ Whitmor 5 Section Closet Organizer—Unfortunately, drawer and shelf space are sometimes limited in some cruise cabins. That’s why we always bring at least one of these inexpensive closet organizers, which gives us plenty of room for our folded clothes. We typically use a couple of magnetic hooks, as described above, to hang these from the ceiling in the corner of our room. Here’s the link where you can get yours: https://amzn.to/3w3GvQn Our Recommended Camera Gear DJI Osmo Pocket 3--You’ll usually see Tracey using this in almost all of our videos.

What's great is that this fully adjustable strap can be configured to be worn across your body, distributing the weight of your camera across your back rather than your neck. Additionally, it provides a bit more security when traveling through high-risk pickpocket areas.
