Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been on almost 70 cruises and I think the first few experien that you have with cruising are crucial to make sure that you have a great experience and you keep coming back

my general recommendation is to a 7-Day Cruise

my number one recommendation is the Caribbean

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Choose a 7-day cruise instead of a 3, 4, or 5-day cruise for a better first experience
✓Aim for 3-4 port days and 3-4 sea days on a 7-day cruise
✓For a first cruise, choose the Caribbean for its stability and simplicity
✓Stay on the ship during port days if you prefer to avoid hectic schedules

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Getting seasick — Keep it simple with a Caribbean cruise, which tends to be more stable
Being overwhelmed by too many port days — Limit to 3-4 port days on a 7-day cruise to avoid a hectic schedule
