Hello, there!

Ready to cruise with me?

I’m Rebecca! My husband Chris and I live in Frisco, Texas. We took our first cruise in 2006 for our honeymoon and quickly became addicted to cruising, completing over 30 cruises by 2023 on seven cruise lines.

Despite needing to fly to every port and holding down full-time careers, we manage to cruise at least twice a year to destinations all over the world, including Asia, Europe, Alaska, Hawaii, and of course the Caribbean. We’ve traveled to 50 countries and counting.

My travel blogging journey started in 2009 and I’m also one of the bestselling authors of Book the Flight Already! so I’m super excited to share my passion for cruising with you. My goal is for Cruise Maven to be your ultimate resource for everything cruises from honest cruise reviews, guides for things to do in port, and cruising secrets & tips.

My wish for you is to explore the world, armed with the knowledge you need to plan the best vacation ever and create memories that will last a lifetime.
