Creator's Key Takeaways

I spent probably $40 just on arcade games and didn't win anything

I recommend going online prior to your cruise looking at the options and then if you don't purchase it beforehand then definitely right when you get on board purchase that Excursion

I always recommend prepaying the gratuities because it just makes it easier that way you're not surprised when the bill comes

you definitely want to do at least one [excursion] while you're on your cruise

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Purchase excursions ahead of time on the Carnival website and read reviews

✓Book excursions right when you get on board because they sell out quickly

✓Prepay gratuities before your cruise to avoid surprises on your bill

✓Set aside money for excursions, as they are not included in the cruise fare
