Creator's Key Takeaways

We have actually been invited on this ship by the social media team from Silver Sea Cruises and they're actually filming us.

The caviar is unlimited on Silver Sea. So, again, that's really nice. One of our all-time favorites.

This is the best. He is the best.

Silver Note was so different. We just enjoy that.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book specialty dining reservations in advance, especially for La Dame.
Consider cruising in the fall for fewer crowds and better prices.
Take advantage of the complimentary caviar and champagne service.
