Creator's Key Takeaways

I have been on 22 cruises and by far the dish that I had the lobster thermador at liistro was the most delicious dish I have ever eaten on any Cruise ever

Norwegian always knocks out of the park no matter what cruise ship we're on with Norwegian their shows are always top tier

I would definitely do Alaska again 100% that was totally worth it cold weather cruising was amazing and Alaska was breathtakingly beautiful

We absolutely loved Alaska and can't wait to go back but we are glad that we had this first experience with our friends on the Norwegian Jewel

Creator's Tips & Advice

Order water ahead of time to have bottles delivered to your room
Bring electrolyte packages to put in water
If you have the ability, don't rush off the ship; check bags the night before and leisurely disembark

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Waiting during embarkationIt's a hurry up and wait process, but it's part of the Norwegian experience; make friends while waiting
Choosing a drink packageDo cost analysis; for non-drinkers, paying as you go can save money (e.g., saved $500 in taxes)
