Creator's Key Takeaways

this is North America's worst cruise ship

food on board was honestly not very good at all

the crew on board were actually some of the best I have ever met on a cruise ship

Today we're embarking on a 2 day "mini cruise" to the Bahamas and back aboard the Margaritaville At Sea Paradise, the oldest major cruise ship in North America. After trying out most the ship has to offer, here's my honest thoughts on what this cruise ship is actually like, why this product exists in the modern cruise industry, and why in my opinion, it's the worst cruise ship in North America.
