Creator's Key Takeaways

If you've seen our videos before, you know I really love the less chaotic, more peaceful start to a cruise that the main dining room offers

The story is so well done and they blend it in with some of the best music performances I've seen on a cruise.

NCL treats solo cruisers very well. Um and if you want to know more about the whole solo cruiser vibe on NCL Getaway, I have an in-depth review

Creator's Tips & Advice

Highly recommend embarkation day lunch in the main dining room to avoid the buffet chaos.
If you are a coffee lover, enjoy the main dining room coffee as they provide your own carafe.
Solo cruisers should look for NCL ships with dedicated solo areas and lounges.
