Dream of Cruising

I really enjoyed listening to this gem. I has a wealth of knowledge. The author was able to produce a well structured and easy to understand audiobook explaining in vivid detailed everything that you need to know about cruising. She started with History of traveling the open seas and then she mentioned some of the great cruise ship ever built like Queen Victoria, etch. It mentioned what activities you can do inside a cruise ship that will make your stay exciting. She even mentioned the negative effects that can be brought about by cruising industry in not regulated/controlled its harm on the environment. Also she discussed the positive side of having cruises dock in your city/country specially those that rely on tourism. So weather your a seasoned traveller and been cruising for a long time or someone who is eagerly wanting to experience being in a cruise this is for you. I highly recommend it. Very well done. Good job!!!

A voyage of discovery

I totally got hooked by the cruise ships now. This book is like a backstage pass to the world of cruise ships, and as a cruise lover, I was all in! It spills the beans on the hidden stories and cool tech stuff behind those massive ships. Plus, it takes you on a wild ride to dreamy destinations that'll make you want to pack your bags ASAP.

The book also gets you all pumped up about the people who make these ships a reality and how they're getting all eco-friendly, which is awesome. It's like a reminder that we can enjoy the high seas while taking care of our planet. Though, I'll admit, the book jumps around a bit, and I would've loved more personal stories. But hey, it's still a fantastic read if you're itching to embrace the cruise life and sail into a world of adventure! ⚓🌊✨

Learned so much more than just cruises

I actually have a cruise planned next December over New Year's so I like to do research before doing anything new and I thought this book sounded interesting. I learned so much about the cruising industry and how much work and effort goes into making sure that the cruises are set up correctly for timing with seasons and weather but also with the destinations. One thing I found really interesting is the fact that with the luxurious offerings from the cruise ship, there are also hidden challenges that it can pose on local environments such as the impact of overpopulating certain tourist destinations within a short timeframe. It was heartening to learn about the industry's endeavors to regulate and minimize such influxes, showing their commitment to both the environment and the communities they are involved with.

The author goes in to share what the cruise liner is responsible for doing to help keep its impact on the environment to a minimum as well as just being a responsible company and responsible maritimer. Really great book. Thoroughly enjoyed listening to it and highly recommend it.

Beyond is right!

Enjoyed listening to the destinations descriptions and history of cruise ships. Had no thoughts of how the local businesses were affected when a cruise ship arrives with tons of passengers that strain infrastructure. Good info on how cruise companies collaborate with local destinations. Venice info about erosion from cruise ships was bothersome, sounds as if it has been observed and now prevention developed! Maritime safety information was comforting to know, i.e. security measures, safety and medical attention. Regulations, climate change give cruise ships their fair share of adversities. Ai and data analytics enhancing passenger satisfaction raised my curiosity on how the future will look on a cruise ship. Loved how the summary draws attention with statement relating cruises affect our "relationship with the world and each other." Glossary of nautical terms was educational.
