Some notes about the different types of posts you find here

  • While some trips here have been cruise stops and the guides/day recaps reflect that, anyone traveling to these locales can benefit from these posts with information on what to do, where to eat, pricing and more.
  • Cruise Port Guides: These have highly rated activities/excursions/tours & info on logistics including the cruise port, transportation options, & top attractions/points of interests & seasonal/weather info & food + shopping recs & FAQ/good to know and so much more!
  • Trip Reports have information on what I spent cash/miles/points wise, how much I saved and a deep dive into the travel hacking aspects of the trip.
  • Trip Overviews are where you will find more detailed information on what I did, ate and drank and where I stayed
