Creator's Key Takeaways

We weren't expecting the invitation um at all. And then for everybody on that particular segment to be able to do it, whether you had booked the whole voyage or not was really really special of Holland to do.

Just seeing the bridge and the engineering room I think were some of my favorite cuz we've never been to either of those.

I love that they kept it small groups so everybody could get there.

I'm excited. For us, it's not about the ship so much as it is the destination.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Take seasickness medication before you feel sick.
