Hi, I’m Matthew Minotti — the dad and cruiser behind this blog, and a travel advisor with Dream Vacations. Every review here comes from sailings I’ve actually taken with my family, and I’d love to help you plan yours. Booking through me costs you nothing extra: you get the same fares you’d find on your own, plus a real person who has been on these ships to help you choose the right cruise line, ship, cabin, and itinerary. Whether you’re a first-time cruiser or a seasoned pro chasing the newest ship at sea, I’m here to make planning easy.

Ready to plan your next trip?

Head over to Let’s Book Some Travel to get started — pick cruise or vacation and answer a few quick questions, and I’ll follow up personally. No fees, no pressure.
