I'm Taking an All Inclusive Cruise! (On a Budget)

I know "all-inclusive" and "budget" usually don't go together, but hear me out on this one... 😂🍷 I've booked a little cruise with the British cruise line Marella. They include flights, transfers, all gratuities and DRINKS (including alcohol) as standard. Woohoo! 🚢⚓️ This will be my 5th Marella cruise, and I can't wait to bring you on this adventure! 👏🏼😁 If you are looking for a cheap cruise, there are lots of things to avoid that can push the prices up significantly! We have all seen bargain...

Hey hey hey! This winter has been long and cold hasn't it? I'm convinced I'm sun-powered like a lizard, and that's why I booked a last-minute break onboard Celebrity Infinity. 🌤️🕶️I've just got home and I can confirm, the sun does still exist. Greece is keeping it for a while longer though! 😂☀️ Infinity is a little ship built in the year 2000 and I loved my time on her. I was so lucky that just by pure chance, I was docked by the brand-new Sun Princess in Athens. My friend Don managed to get...

I found it I found it! The sun! It does still exist, it’s in Greece onboard the Celebrity Infinity. Luckily for me… I’M HERE TOO, taking a very cheap last minute out of season cruise. Our journey started at 3am so I haven’t explored the ship properly yet but I can confirm my ‘Celebrity has the best buffet’ statement 100% still stands. If you have seen pictures of Cruise Ships and Ocean Liners in dry dock undergoing renovation, or being built in the shipyards you may have wondered why they are...

Book too early? The price may fall. Leave it too late? You may miss out completely! Knowing when to book a cruise can be tricky. Generally speaking the cheapest time to book a cruise is as far in advance as possible (2-3 years sometimes) or last minute (60-90 days before the cruise). At the 60-90 days pre-cruise mark there can be some great deals because this is when the cruise lines need the full payment from other guests, so they know for sure how many cabins they have to sell. It’s always...

I've just disembarked a Christmas Markets river cruise that didn't go to plan at all! 😂🎄 Due to high water levels, our embarkation port was changed and flight diverted, our itinerary was altered and it was all round an exciting adventure where I never knew what would happen next. 🤔😟 The cruise was onboard TUI Skyla and I spent 5 night onboard in total. It's gunna be an exciting video that's for sure! 😎👍🏼 Important Announcements: MERRY CHRISTMAS!! I hope you get to eat lots of yummy things....

On my last cruise, I did something very different. I cruised with kids! I was joined by my two nieces which was so much fun. It was interesting to see the world of cruising through their eyes. My 5-year-old niece LOVED jumping down all the stairs, something adults rarely get to do unless we are holding hands with a child... (I did it a lot and I can confirm, it was fun). Videos coming soon! Important Announcements: We're making great process on the Captain Hudson children's books series. This...
