Creator's Key Takeaways

I am solo this trip it's a bit of a long one because I've got two cruises side by side back to back

embarkation was busy but it was a relatively smooth process and I had heard horror stories about New York so I was pretty pleased with how it all went

the lobby on Carnival vsia is smaller than I'm used to for Carnival but definitely still really Grand

I've set myself a budget of about 400 bucks for the whole 9 days

Creator's Tips & Advice

Walk to the pier if staying at a nearby hotel to save time and money
Check out quick service places if the main buffet is crowded

YouTube Video Description

#CarnivalVenezia is the first ship of the new "Italian" concept offered by Carnival Cruise Line. I was skeptical at first, especially with the ship/concept/port getting such mixed reviews, but when a steal of a deal popped up, I knew I had to go try it out for myself. This is my full account of that unique solo experience. In this episode, I leave my house in San Antonio, board a plane to #NewYorkCity, spend the night, and embark the beautiful ship for my 9-night adventure!
