Book excursions early – the best excursions sell out fast. If you book them early, then you can have all the options. Making your vacation more adventurous and extravagant.
Pack accordingly – do your research. Some cruises include special nights where you dress differently. For example, some family cruises do neon nights or 80s night. Pack where you are going but always bring a swimsuit. All cruises will have either a jacuzzi or a sauna. Even if you’re going to someplace cold like Alaska.
