Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm here to tell you if you're thinking about cruising and you are interested in an all-inclusive destination I know people including myself that have boarded a cruise ship and never spent a single dime on board and still had an absolutely fantastic time and you could too

the biggest thing here guys is make sure you're looking at the rate code that is really important as you see that exact same cabin on that exact same sailing can literally cost you thousands more than you have to pay if you don't select the right rate code

I strongly recommend you actually purchasing your Excursion through the cruise line and there's one really major difference if you purchase an Excursion independently of the cruise ship and that Excursion for whatever reason is late getting back to the ship which could be a flat tire traffic whatever the reason the ship's not going to wait for you

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Select the right rate code to avoid paying thousands more for the same cabin
βœ“Purchase excursions through the cruise line to ensure the ship waits for you
βœ“Consider buying travel insurance during hurricane season (August-September)
