Independent Travel Advisor, Priceless Cruising
Bitten by the cruise bug after our 1st cruise in 1991, I've been helping people plan their cruises since 2006. I especially enjoy working with 'First Time Cruisers'. My goal is to 'prepare' them for their cruise, so they can fully enjoy everything that is available to them. The best compliment was when some First Timers returned and bragged that they were giving some of my tips to past passengers! I also don't believe there is a 'best cruise line' - different cruise lines are appropriate for different purposes - The cruise line for a bachelor party might be different than one for your 40th Wedding Anniversary. To date, I've cruised on close to 50 cruises with 13 different cruise lines and visited 35 countries, to better prepare myself for your questions. I'm a good listener and fun to work with - after all, I get to help people plan their cruises!

Best Travel Pro Tip One of the big questions about cruises is 'what should I wear for formal night?' Over the years, dress codes have relaxed tremendously. My advice is simply to wear something you would wear to a wedding - embrace the opportunity to 'get dressed up' and take advantage of a handful of willing photographers (with no sitting fee) to take formal shots of you and the people you are traveling with. If you don't like it, you don't have to purchase it! For many, the last 'nice' picture was done at a class reunion!
