Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm going to share with you exactly what each of these packages is, and whether or not I've found it to be good value for my recent cruises.

On Norwegian Cruise Line, I haven't ever been presented with a check because it is, as the name suggests, a fully open bar.

I've taken multiple tours with Viator at the fraction of the price that I've been quoted by NCL.

Depending on when I book the cruise, this aspect alone can make the package a complete no-brainer, because it's sometimes cheaper than that for me to actually book the cruise with the basic Free at Sea.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Log in and log out of your device every time you use the Wi-Fi to avoid consuming your 150-minute limit instantly.

✓Check if you are guest one or two in your stateroom, as specialty dining and excursion credits may not apply to additional guests.
