YouTube Video Description

#cruise #virginvoyages #carnivalcruise In this video today, it's time to disembark Scarlet Lady and head over to my next cruise ship: Carnival Horizon! This will be my second Carnival cruise (you can check out my first in my Carnival Panorama series), but my first time cruising with Carnival out of Miami. In this video (and vlog series), I'm going to show you exactly what it's like to cruise with Carnival - will it be different to Virgin, or will it be similar? Additionally, I'll show you what it's like to disembark a cruise ship here in Miami, while boarding another on the SAME DAY. Stay tuned - we've got a lot to see together!
