With an upcoming British Isles Explorer voyage booked for mid-September, and having never been on a cruise before, I've been doing my homework! I stumbled across this Instagram account of an April 2023 BIE journey by Los Angeles based food writer and influencer Jo Stougaard. Her Insta handle is #mylastbite & here's a link to her first post - from there, scroll up for a port-by-port account. Her first post is April 1, 2023 if the link isn't working.

Her posts are charming, joyous and informative. You get a real feel for the ship (her food pics are works of art) and a sense of being right there as she explores each destination. By the way, this forum has been such a helpful resource for me in planning this trip, thanks to everyone who takes the time to post.
