Creator's Key Takeaways

The cabin on the cruise ship wins on on the comparison to the hotel in London.

The cruise wins hands down with the food. It's it's far more superior and a far better experience.

The West End in London beat it hands down. But uh in London is more funny, more excellent.

I probably wouldn't do a two night cruise again. Um, one of the purposes of doing this two night crew is to actually experience the ship, which we've done, and I enjoyed the ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“If booking a cruise, opt for more than two nights to truly experience the ship.
βœ“If visiting London, see Kinky Boots or The Greatest Showman as they are outstanding shows.
