Hi, I'm Christine, a TravelOnly travel advisor based in Ontario, Canada.

I created this guide because planning your first cruise can feel like a lot. There are so many choices and the cheapest cruise isn't always the best vacation for you.

My goal is to help you understand your options, ask the right questions and choose a vacation that fits you.

Cruises • All-Inclusive Vacations • Europe • Guided Tours • Group Travel

You Don't Have to Figure It All Out Yourself

10/10 Vacation

Our trip was absolutely amazing, a little on the windy side the first day or 2 and then it warmed up nicely. The resort was beautiful, clean and everyone was so friendly. 10/10 would go to this resort again or any other Riu !  Thank you for all your help in putting together a vacation we will never forget !
