Creator's Key Takeaways

Imagine boarding your very cruise ever to your dream destination in the Caribbean and just to be rushed off the ship 3 days later because you need a medical emergency surgery

The $50, the $90, whatever whatever plan it is, right? That's the actual cost for the vacation because you paid a lot of money, right?

We always recommend book the short excursion through the cruise line. Because doing a third party it comes with a lot of headache and a lot of things are not covered.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Always book shore excursions through the cruise line rather than third-party providers to ensure accountability.
Always purchase travel insurance to cover medical evacuations and emergency surgeries.
Consider the cost of travel insurance as part of the actual cost of the vacation.
