Creator's Key Takeaways
I was incredibly fortunate to being asked to go on this press trip as the crews completely surpassed my expectations
every single stateroom has a veranda or sort of balcony area so everyone on the ship has a view of the sea from their veranda
there are no children running around the decks and that made for a really chilled experience
I highly recommend the company and I can't wait to go on another cruise with them
