Creator's Key Takeaways

we still ran into a few situations where we had to figure out things on the Fly and we even learned a few lessons the hard way

make sure the credit cards you plan to use when traveling overseas do not charge foreign transaction fees

don't overlook getting some sort of travel insurance for you and your family

we ended up opting for two connecting rooms at a holiday in near our cruise port in Dover

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring some local currency for small purchases but don't carry too much
Use credit cards with no foreign transaction fees and have a backup card
Get travel insurance that covers medical emergencies and travel disruptions
Pre-book hotels well in advance, especially for larger groups
Plan transportation from airports and to cruise ports ahead of time
Research public transportation options for cruise ports
