Customer Reviews

Los Angeles Times columnist

Ethel's newest book is the bible of cruising. The 2003 edition guides passengers to the right ship at the right price at the right time. It's a "must read" before choosing your ship.

Excellent reference guide detailing what to expect on board

The book details the positive and negatives of every ship and is an excellent guide to cruising. Even people like me who have cruised hundreds of ships find details I never knew about some of the ships I have sailed. but, you are wrong about publication date. My copy says "1998" while your description says an earlier date. You should correct it as the book includes ships of the Milleniuim as well as all of the new ships sailing in 1999.

Great, but get the new 13th edition

The new edition has a different name. I believe, the "Total Traveler Guide to Worldwide Cruising". She doesn't pull any punches with shipboard ratings and gives many great insights to particular ships and cruising in general.

Great source of advice and information on ships

Invaluable information if you are trying to decide what line or ship to go on. She gives a fair description and evaluation of almost every ship and line sailing, as well as plentiful and honest advice for both the 1st time and many time cruiser. Highly recommended!
