Creator's Key Takeaways

we're here on Celebrity so I'm going to tell you the three things on Princess that I miss the most so far

I felt perfectly safe and I'm kind of a worry person but we felt absolutely perfectly safe the whole time

the dinner part was fine and getting to see the beautiful evening was great

I would encourage you that if you've been thinking of coming to um Istanbul you should come sooner than later

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a mini Suite or suite on Princess for a sofa in balcony cabins
Use cash and haggle in the Grand Bazaar
Visit the Armory at Top Copy Palace first to avoid long lines
