Creator's Key Takeaways

I was on a cruise recently we head out on excursion and what we hadn't realized is a lady with the young child had actually got separated and then was stranded in a country where she didn't speak the language

I have actually been on a cruise a couple of years ago where I fell really badly and broke my ankle

the single most important item that you can take on an excursion and even if you forget all the other ones that I tell you this is the single most important item you either take the daily program with you or you make sure you've taken a photograph of the daily program

having a laugh with a currency converter is a great idea so you can just check what things actually cost

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Take your cruise card and tour tickets
βœ“Carry a copy of the daily program or a photo of it with port agent contact
βœ“Bring government-issued photo ID and a copy of your passport
βœ“Have local currency and a debit/credit card
βœ“Keep travel insurance details accessible on your phone
βœ“Use a currency converter app to avoid being overcharged
