Creator's Key Takeaways

It is the cruise of highs and lows.

Probably the worst embarcation I've ever had on on probably the most expensive cruise I've ever had.

For me personally, it was the best food I've ever had on a cruise ship.

I'm not sure that I would pay double triple what what I pay for a really good other cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Don't expect immediate butler service or mini-bar setup upon boarding.
Try the room service for a luxurious in-cabin dining experience.
Attend the tea time on sea days.
If you are prone to seasickness, be prepared for potential rough seas.
