Lauren Macartney
Senior Consultant | CLIA Master
I began working on cruise ships, and just knew it was the perfect way to travel in my 20's. I completed three contracts all on Holland America Line and loved every minute of it. I got to visit places such as Alaska, Mexico, Hawaii, Europe and Baltic regions. With my experience I feel I can now bring my vast knowledge to share with you in planning the cruise of a lifetime!
What is your favourite cruise destination you visited & why?
Alaska - It is just the most beautiful destinations and it looks different every time.
What is your favourite cruise ship & why?
Royal Caribbean (Voyager of the Seas) & Holland America (Zaandam)
Favourite cruise tip you give your clients
Always book a night or two pre cruise. This helps reduce stress and not having to rush if travel plans do not go to 'plan' and there are delays.
