    Sarap mag cruise. relax ka lang dun tas me buffet unlimited coffe at kung gusto mo mag inom maglalakad ka lang pabalik sa room mo no need to drive, madami ka pa mapupuntahan na mag places. at higit sa lahat madaming kababayan na nagwowork dun.

    The cruise ships are so huge they sometimes are just as big as one of the malls here in the Philippines. Very very huge. You won't be able to see everything inside the ship for sure in such a very limited time.

    Question: If kukunin yung cruise na departing from SG and dadaan ng ports sa Japan, need pa ba ng visa for Japan? Thanks!

    How about for payments? What currency did you use for the cruise? Cash or debit cards.. on stop over like in malaysia or thailand. Thanks

    • @thepoortraveler
      @thepoortraveler  Před rokem +2

      Hi Jhay! On board, everything was charged sa credit card. But the official currency on board ay USD. We had USD cash as backup but we didn't get to use it. For Malaysia, we bought MYR here in PH before the trip because the MYR exchange rates were good at the time. Pero panget 'yung rates ng Thailand baht so we just withdrew from an ATM nung andun na kami sa Phuket. Just choose a local bank ATM. :)

      @bambideguia Před rokem

      You can exchange PHP to MYR in Malaysia. But it has to be in 1k denomination. Not sure if still true today. This is what I did in 2019.

    • @thepoortraveler
      @thepoortraveler  Před 4 měsíci +1

      May mga juices sa buffet na walang extra bayad, but that's about it. The rest ay bibilhin mo na. May mga drink packages din sila.

    The only thing preventing me from going on a cruise is the rumor that the water isn't sanitary lol.. did u get sick/felt under the weather during or after the cruise. Thanks! :)

    • @WalterWhite-nq7jt
      @WalterWhite-nq7jt Před rokem

      Drink bottled water all the time. Bring medicine for colds, sore throats, diarrhea, headaches, gas and minor medical issues. There is always a doctor and nurse and a dentist on board in case of emergencies for a fee. Be sure to get medical travel insurance that can cover these expenses.

      Millions of people cruise. Yes, some problems happen but, they are the ones that get in the news and amplified.

    Can you book a cruise for 1 person?

    • @heymikey1981
      @heymikey1981 Před rokem +2

      Yes, but for most cruises, you'll have to pay double.

    • @jexter22
      @jexter22 Před rokem

      Yes but double when you’re alone try Virgin cruises
