In this video, I’m trying both TUI Airways and Marella Cruises for the very first time as we head from London Gatwick to Gran Canaria for a festive cruise around the Canary Islands on Marella Explorer.
I’ll take you through the full journey, including check-in at Gatwick, the Plaza Premium Lounge, the TUI flight experience, arrival in Gran Canaria, the Marella transfer, embarkation, dinner on board, a tour of our inside cabin 9171, and finally a festive sail away party with Christmas decorations all around the ship.
If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to holiday with TUI and Marella Cruises, this video will give you a real, honest look at the experience.
