Gu Lang Yu 🚢 Strategy
1️⃣ Room type🏠:
We booked a double balcony room a month and a half in advance and ended up staying in a balcony room on the 10th floor (with sofa bed for three people). Balcony rooms are very popular, if you want to book, you have to start early ~ The room is quite beautiful, the balcony photography is very good 📸, next time consider booking a suite.
2️⃣ Price💰:
At that time I saw the low price (half price) but did not dare to order, finally chose the normal price. In fact, if you are willing to wait, there is a chance to squat to a good price ~
3️⃣ Wear 👗:
The 11th holiday is very hot 🔥, it is recommended to wear a dress, bright colors are especially beautiful to take pictures ~ indoor air conditioning is strong enough, bring a sunscreen jacket.
4️⃣ Eat 🍽️:
The two restaurants on the 6th floor are the same package, the 12th floor is a buffet (I like the 12th floor more, more choices and freedom; the 6th floor environment is more beautiful, very suitable for photography📷, daily soup is good); Miyakojima can make an appointment in advance for barbecue, Miyako beef is really great 👍.
5️⃣ Line 🔖:
Five days and four nights trip ~ The first day of the afternoon on the boat just encountered a typhoon 🌀, the bow and stern of the boat is very wobbly, many people vomit 🤢, depending on the body, it is recommended to bring seasickness medicine, the boat can take.
The next day after leaving the typhoon zone it was much calmer and the weather was super beautiful ☀️.
The third day to Miyako Island, the sea water is really beautiful 😍! Although it's hot but worth it, be sure to rent a car to go farther away, Don Quixote is super good to stroll, AEON over there drugstores are good, shopping to allow more time🛍️.
6️⃣ Network 🛜:
WiFi on board is very expensive, I bought 1G ($28 💵). The first and last days have Hong Kong signal available, the third day Miyakojima buy Japanese traffic is enough. Although I downloaded a lot of dramas in advance, the life on the ship is actually quite fulfilling and I didn't watch much😂.
✨The first time I took a cruise was really good, I fell in love with the leisure and freedom of waking up naturally and chasing the sunset 🌇 every day ~ I took many beautiful photos, my circle of friends was planted by me 🤣, I have started looking forward to the next cruise!
