Creator's Key Takeaways
i have never been more nervous for a cruise i thought i had done my research i've been researching cruising for the last year but i didn't know if i personally would feel safe on the ship
the cruise ship may be a bit ghostly quiet it only had a thousand passengers on board and because everybody had all-inclusive drinks i didn't know if it might turn into a bit of a booze cruise
i felt really safe with that a lot safer than i would just walking down the street at home
the buffet is still there the food is still fantastic and i think it's a better process than it was before all of this happened

I thought I knew what to expect when it came to my first cruise after Covid. I'd done my research but nothing prepared me for what it was like to really be back on a cruise after so long. A lot has changed! Come with me as we take a 4-night cruise on board the brand new MSC Virtuosa. The cruise leaves the UK and is only for British guests.
