Creator's Key Takeaways

I work a 9-5, but travel the world as if I don't.

I think I had my time on this ship. I don't think I ever have to get back on Explorer of the Seas.

The oven baked scallops were divine. They were similar to the escargot presentation. Very tasty.

I appreciate the thoughtfulness. Alright, so today did not go as planned which sometimes happens on a cruise ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Request your robe on day one if you have platinum or above perks.

✓Be mindful of noise if you book a Promenade view cabin.

✓Factor in about $100 to $125 per day for a self-organized beach day in Freeport.

✓Use the QR code in your cabin for common requests instead of calling.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Noise from Promenade view rooms — Be prepared to hear extra noise, probably no later than 10 p.m.

Getting to shore excursions in Freeport — Be patient and try to find a group to share a taxi to reduce costs.

YouTube Video Description↓

I spend 9 days cruising solo on Royal Caribbean Explorer of the Seas. The first half of the cruise we stop at @RoyalCaribbean private island Perfect Day at CoCo Cay. The second half of the sailing we head to Grand Turk where I encounter an unexpected medical emergency that made me change my plans. #royalcaribbean #exploreroftheseas Want to see more of my Royal Caribbean cruise adventures?: Jewel of the Seas: https://youtu.be/34yaqyDTa9Q?si=N-UnxfuPZgYPjJT6 Star of the Seas: https://youtu.be/q8LApj_zH1E?si=qMGj_dkcI6LLvK6e Key moments: 0:00 Boarding Day! 21:31 Perfect Day at CoCo Cay 33:28 The Back to Back Cruise Process on Royal Caribbean TRAVEL AGENT INFORMATION: Email: SEEITWITHC@GMAIL.COM FOLLOW ME!: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/seeitwithc_/
