YouTube Video Description

With the UK opening up soon for British Isles cruises I thought it was a good time to talk about the British Isles cruise I took with Princess. I have spoken to a lot of people recently who feel as though they're too British to take a British isles cruise, that's kind of how I felt... but the cruise surprised me! ad (press invite ) - Princess Cruises invited me on this cruise, they have no control over my content and all opinions are my own. I was invited by Princess to join journalists and other media people on an around British cruise. We cruise in May (pre-Covid 19) and were INCREDIBLY lucky with the weather.
