Ports

I’ve visited these ports myself, and these guides focus on what I enjoyed, what I’d skip, and how I’d spend my day if I were visiting again.

Not every cruise port lives up to the hype—and after visiting dozens of them over the years, I’ve learned that some of the best days ashore come from knowing what to expect before you arrive.

These guides are based on my own experiences, focusing on what’s actually worth your time, what can be skipped, and how to make the most of your day in port.
