Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm currently on board an all-inclusive cruise sailing the Mediterranean at the busiest time of year.

In reality, this cruise took us by surprise in so many ways.

The food was good, and we enjoyed the included drinks.

I would go as far as to say that this is one of my favorite cruise ship buffets ever.

YouTube Video Description

I’m currently onboard an all-inclusive cruise, sailing the Mediterranean at the busiest time of the year. The ship I’m cruising on launched way back in 1997, and the cruise includes everything, from flights and transfers, to unlimited alcoholic drinks. ** As mentioned in the video, I booked another cruise on this ship while onboard, which is so exciting (sailing January 30th 2026).

You are the best and I appreciate you so much. Comment the word SPICY in your comment so I know!! 😂🏆 ** I usually avoid cruising in peak season because a few years ago I took a cruise in the summer that had over 900 children onboard, it was very busy and it honestly did put me off for a while. I wanted to take my mum away on a cruise though and the date that worked for her was in the summer so we decided to give it another go, I was hopeful that it would be a relaxing break for both of us. It was not cheap, with a starting price of £1558 per person, which is a little over $2100 US dollars, the stakes were high. I was optimistic that the ship wouldn’t feel run down and I hoped we wouldn’t see any bad behaviour caused by the unlimited drinks. In reality, this cruise took us by surprise in so many ways, we found things we weren’t expecting in our cabin, the bars and even in the food. ▶ FREE COURSE.
