Creator's Key Takeaways

Cruises can be affordable, but watch out for hidden costs because they will add up fast and surprise you at the end of the cruise.

One thing that you definitely need to be aware of is gratuitities.

The gratuitities help pay the weight staff in the restaurant, the room steward, and everybody else on board that helps you through your cruise.

What this cost is typically anywhere between $16 to $25 per person in the cabin per day.
