Creator's Key Takeaways

I've been to what four other ports never heard a thing. Woke up in the morning.

The only way of getting off earlier than that, which is 6:30, is if you do selfisip, which is where you take your own luggage with you.

She won't be getting a tip, I'm afraid. Usually drop an extra bit of tips.

We have booked another one on the Virtuosa, but not till next June. That's a cruise we've not done. That's um round Iceland.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Do self-assist disembarkation to get off between 6:30 and 7:30 AM.
โœ“Wait in deck five for the blue restaurant and central atrium.
โœ“Check luggage area by odds and evens numbers to find your bags quickly.

Worry about setting an alarm due to noise โ€” No need for an alarm clock; noises wake you up early.
How to get off the ship quickly โ€” Use self-assist disembarkation or follow the numbered order based on cabin and status.
