Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm excited to show you this ship. I'm excited to be here for a four-night cruise.

I can't say anything negative at all about the imbarcation or check-in process.

This is really, really good, y'all. This is very comparable to Guys Burger.

It's been a really good day. I have a lot more coverage to come from here on board.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the express pass for faster embarkation if available.
Try the Cheeseburger in Paradise for a comparable experience to Carnival's Guy's Burger.
