Creator's Key Takeaways

my absolute favorite thing about cruising is the fact that every single day you wake up and you're somewhere new

cruises are not actually that restful especially on days when you're in Port

the internet package now I don't have positive reviews on it for this ship in particular

I've only been four different cruises with three different Cruise companies so at least I have some comparisons to make

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Research the ships because all the ships and all the cruise companies offer different things
✓Decide what you want from your holiday because it's not always chilling at Sea
✓Look for a cruise package where you sometimes get a hotel over at the start or at the end of the cruise
✓Book your excursions through the cruise for added assurance that the ship will wait for you
✓Consider a drinks package if you drink a fair amount for better value for money
✓Stand your ground if you have issues with the internet package to get a discount

Cruises not being restful — Decide what you want from your holiday because it's not always chilling at Sea; there's a go-go-go schedule with early excursions and late nights
Extra costs adding up — Look at what's included in your cruise ship and all extras before deciding, as the total price can end up being a shock
