I Revisited Silversea To See If The Latest Reviews Were True (Podcast #551)

Is Silversea still ultra-luxury? After reading shocking new reviews calling it "shabby" and "not worth the premium," I boarded Silver Nova to find out the truth. When I started reading recent reviews of Silversea Cruises, I was shocked. Loyal guests now call it "shabby," "cut back," "no longer luxury," and "not worth the premium." Having cruised six times with Silversea and always rated it highly, I had to see if things really had changed. So, I booked myself (and paid full fare) onto Silver Nova, their newest class of ship, to find out what's really happening onboard.   Become a Tips For Travellers Patron: https://www.patreon.com/tipsfortravellers and get exclusive Patron-only content, downloads and livestreams Visit my Tips For Travellers YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/tipsfortravellers   Offers: Get 10% any order of The Cruise Maps who you visit the site using this link: https://www.TheCruiseMaps.com/TFT Get up to 30% off collectible tokens of place you've visited using the link: https://www.TheWanderClub.com/TFT

All Cruisers Over 55 SHOULD Do This (Younger Ones Don't Need To!) (Podcast #550)

Cruising over the age of 55 brings unexpected challenges that younger cruisers don’t even - or need - to think about. I know — because I’ve learned the hard way after more than 100 cruises since turning 55. In this video, I reveal the real watch outs, traps, and opportunities for older travellers that most cruise advice never covers. From choosing the right itinerary, line, ship, and cabin, to avoiding mobility issues, scams, and bad weather seasons — these are the essential insights every over-55 cruiser should know before booking. I’ll also share how to find senior discounts, pick the right excursions, pack smarter, and make sure your insurance and travel plans keep you safe and stress-free. Whether you’re newly retired or a seasoned traveller looking for longer or more exotic voyages, this guide will help you cruise smarter and better prepared.
