Creator's Key Takeaways

This is my first solo cruise. This is my first cruise of the year. My first solo group cruise of the year.

I am so glad that I did not because this is actually a beautiful ship.

I would not rule out NCL Epic. Um, I had so many reservations about uh going on this cruise to now I in my heart I I did want to cancel but uh you know because I had people booked already and I didn't want to try to you know switch over the um the um you know group cruise to something else and I am so glad that that I didn't.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Don't go off of what other people say, experience it yourself.
If you have a port heavy cruise, you have to port every day, so plan accordingly.
If you buy the internet package with 150 minutes, turn your Wi-Fi on and off to conserve minutes.
