I almost never book cruise excursions anymore.

I almost never book cruise excursions anymore. Instead, I plan my port days differently. I use ChatGPT to create walking routes that actually make sense. Realistic distances. Local stories — not tourist statistics. Hidden corners, real history, and the kind of context that makes a place come alive. Sometimes I even ask for a matching Spotify playlist — because the right music changes how a city feels. No rushing. No flag-following crowds. Just a port day that feels personal, flexible, and genuinely enjoyable. This is my favorite way to explore cruise destinations now. #cruiseexcursions #cruisetips #cruiselife #portdays #cruisetravel
