Creator's Key Takeaways
I cruise a lot and I always sail with travel insurance. You should too.
We're up on 117 cruises now.
The crew was the breakout star on board the ship.
I would highly recommend sailing one of the smaller ships.
Creator's Tips & Advice
✓Research the islands and decide what's important for you before booking excursions.
✓Consider booking independent tours in Hawaiian islands and NCL tours in French Polynesia to avoid being stranded.
✓Bring dollars for tipping and gratuities in French Polynesia.
🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:
Motion sickness on winding tours like the Road to Hana — If prone to motion sickness, maybe Hana is not the best bet.
Navigating an older ship with a quirky layout — It took a day or two to get used to the ship's layout, but it was well-kept.
