Creator's Key Takeaways

There are cruises that have been released at 40% off that are in the fall and winter.

I am a 27-year-old single man with no kids. That is going to be a very different perspective.

The Wish has great adult activities. They have that area Azure which is just fantastic.

The dining on those big ships just was not up to par with what I've known.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Be an onion: wear layers for Alaska's changing weather.
Use Facebook groups to meet people and get tips.
Stay on the ship in Nassau to enjoy a sea day at port.
