Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm calling it the worst part about cruising as having to leave. Especially when you've had such a brilliant time.

This is chaos. Oh my god. I have no idea what's going on

We really hope that you found this vlog series helpful and have enjoyed watching as much as we've enjoyed making it.

One thing we love about BLA is the fact you could use your drinks package on disembarkation day as well.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Screenshot your final bill on Navigate before disembarking as you won't be able to access it once you leave the ship.
Make sure you keep some clothes aside for disembarkation day to avoid having to leave in your underwear.
If you're disembarking in Tenerife, luggage is a short walk from the port or cruise ship.

YouTube Video Description

It’s day seven onboard Marella Explorer, and we start the day in Tenerife before heading back to Gran Canaria, right where our Marella Explorer cruise began…. but not without running into something surprisingly annoying that we really could have done without (Vlog #7) As this Marella Explorer cruise comes to an end, we share what our final port day looks like, how it feels wrapping things up onboard Marella Explorer, and how small frustrations can sometimes sneak in right at the end of an otherwise brilliant cruise. It’s one of those moments that doesn’t ruin the trip - but definitely tests your patience. Back onboard the Marella Explorer cruise ship, we make the most of our last few hours, soaking up the atmosphere and enjoying the familiar spaces we’ve come to love - from the bars and dining venues to the entertainment that’s been a big part of this voyage. Whether you’re researching a Marella Explorer cruise, following along with our Marella Explorer vlog series, or just curious about what the final days of a Marella cruise are really like, this video gives an honest look at the reality of disembarkation day on Marella Cruises creeping in.
