Creator's Key Takeaways

We only had TWO DAYS in Athens before our very first MH Family Adventures group cruise in Greece!

Thanks to the sponsors of this video, Level 8 luggage, we had plenty of room to not only pack what we needed for this cruise, but also had a bit of room left over to take home some wine and other souvenirs.

Number one, split your clothes between a carry-on and check bag or go carry-on only if you can.

The best bet if you're taking a cruise is to get them in Athens. You're going to find them a lot cheaper.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Split clothes between carry-on and checked bag or go carry-on only.
Use TSA-approved locks on luggage and store valuables in zippered compartments.
Purchase souvenirs in Athens for better prices before a cruise.
