Customer Reviews
Good podcast

Goldilocks of Cruise Reviews.
Edit: it’s been almost a year since I wrote this and I still love this podcast! Definitely my favorite cruise podcast by a mile
Thank you for creating such a well balanced podcast!! I went on a few cruises in the late 90s took a very long break, then just went on my first cruise in a long time last month. I want to keep cruising so I started listening to several cruise podcasts. Some of them had way too many breaks, some of them just felt like 30 minutes of advertising for the cruise line, some gave background information like the history of the cruise line which I don’t care about, and often times they are quite stuffy and I learned nothing about the hosts. Magically cruising is super fun yet well organized and structured. The information is efficiently delivered. We get to know the hosts via short stories that are relative to the topic at hand, but do not take over the whole episode. They also have information I don’t hear anywhere else. For example I am a water drinker and that is my biggest complaint about vacations when there’s not enough water I am just downright cranky, so I love that that is included in every review. Even if I don’t think I will go on a particular cruise line, I will listen to the podcast… I have listen to every episode simply because I love the format and it’s always informative and entertaining!
