Creator's Key Takeaways

this ship was built in 1998 but it's been refurbished and it is absolutely unbelievable whatever how they've kept it

the one thing I was just is The Medallion app The Medallion app basically it's your key card you scan in and out

I honestly say I wasn't real impressed by the breakfast buffet part and the dinner items were much better

the pizza restaurant outside is absolutely excellent I think it's some of the best pizza ever on any of the cruise ships

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get to the puppy socialization event early to get a seat
Wait until the end of the cruise to buy items from the shops for better deals
Consider upgrading to a mini-suite for the extra space
Get up early to secure a good seat on the upper decks for glacier viewing

YouTube Video Description

Is the Grand Princess still Grand? Watch this video to find out. I did a V-Log full ship tour and provide you with a review at the end. I have to say, after the refurbishment of this ship in 2019 (and not used during the pandemic) is in amazing shape.
