  • This 2023 Carnival Panorama Cruise Ship trip was a solo cruise that ended up being one of my absolute favorites. From the new and modern Carnival Cruise look, to the cheap price that I snagged the deal for, the cruise food options, spa services, and so much more left me a happy Solo Cruiser.
    The Carnival Panorama often departs out of Long Beach, CA and debuted in late 2018. This 7-day Carnival Cruise was to the Mexican Riviera, with stops in Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, and Cabo San Lucas. While my solo cruise cabin was a standard interior, it was worth the price.
    In this video, I focus on why a solo cruise on the Carnival Panorama ship is worth the price and some of the great things I experienced along the way with travel tips to help you plan.

    OMG! Everything you said was so true about solo cruising. I did my first two months ago and was so nervous because I am such an introvert. I will say that was one of my favorite cruise to date. I met friends along the way once I told people that I was traveling alone. They looked out for me when they would see me around. It was also great to have some alone time without having to go along with everything my family wanted to do. Thanks for the video. I have another solo cruise booked in November 😊😊

    My only solo cruise was at age 15, going round trip trans-Atlantic on the SS Canberra sailing out of NYC, to see a total solar eclipse at sea in 1973. I shared a small cabin with 3 (former) strangers. My fare was $500 even, for 16 nights. I took $100 spending money including for 2 shore excurisions (Tenerife and Dakar) and tipping my waiter and room steward the recommended $15 each at the end of the cruise. It was life-changing being with 2000 fellow eclipse chasers, meeting many famous and extraordinary people, and having fun like you wouldn't believe.
    How I talked my parents into letting me go alone and spend my life savings on it, is a whole other story of good behavior, good luck, and amazing coincidences.
    Since then, I've "only" been on 4 more cruises. One for my honeymoon in 1979, three as family cruises arranged by my parents in the 1990s and 2000s. I'm sort of itching to get back to sea. Not sure how I'll react to the megaships now. I've only been on true ocean liners, with the Canberra having been by far the biggest.

    I’m so glad to find your videos, content, voice & info shared. I absolutely love cruising. My cruises have always been with my kiddo’s. Since they’re all grown and schedules are tough to orchestrate together, I’m seriously considering booking a short solo cruise to start. As an introvert with a job that requires constant interaction with people, I would embrace that solo time. (Hopefully guilt free). 😊📖🏝️🍹🛳️🌅☀️🌊
