Creator's Key Takeaways

your basic fare will pay for a meal for you three meals a day at least maybe more

parking because if you drive to a cruise port or uber to a cruise port you're going to have an expense

it's pretty traditional to tip maybe your waiter and the assistant waiter there's usually two people taking care of your table

i hope that this is helpful especially to someone who's about to go on their first cruise

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring cash for port tips, taxis, and unexpected expenses.
Budget for parking or Uber to the cruise port.
