About Tom and Dom Travel
Cruise Reviews, Ship Tours and Port Guides
We're Tom and Dom, a pair of UK cruisers with 30 cruises, 30 ships and 45,000+ nautical miles behind us. Our YouTube channel and website bring you honest ship reviews, cabin tours and port guides from P&O, Marella, Cunard and more, so you know what's genuinely worth your holiday budget before you book.

45,000+ Nautical Miles and Counting
From the UK we've sailed across Europe to Iceland, Greenland, the Mediterranean, North Africa and beyond. We've tried ocean cruises, river cruises, yacht-style voyages and remote expedition routes, because we don't believe there's a single perfect cruise ship or style of cruising. There's just the right one for you.
Browse what we've covered: our cruise port guides, cruise line guides and our cruise cost calculator.

-
45,000+ nautical miles sailed

225 days at sea

30 different ships

The Cruise Lines We’ve Experienced
Our first-hand experience includes:
-
P&O Cruises (our most-frequented line at 6 trips)
-
Celestyal Cruises
-
Norwegian Cruise Line
-
Hebrides Cruises
-
and more
P&O Cruises remains the cruise line we have sailed with most frequently, with six trips to date.
We also continue to seek out new cruise lines, ships and styles of cruising so that our content doesn't become focused on just one part of the industry.
As visual creators, we love tracking every single mile we sail. That is why we use The Cruise Maps to maintain our official The Cruise Globe Passport.
More Than Just Cruise Vlogs
You’ll find us across a number of platforms, because everyone consumes travel content differently.
Our YouTube channel is where we bring our cruises to life through detailed ship tours, reviews, cabin tours, daily vlogs and destination content.
Our website provides more in-depth written guides, cruise reviews, port guides and practical advice that you can refer back to when planning your own trip.
And across Facebook, Instagram and our other social platforms, we share shorter videos, photographs, updates and the occasional glimpse behind the scenes.
The aim is the same wherever you find us: useful cruise information, based on our own experiences, with a bit of Tom and Dom along the way.

Real-World Travel Expertise You Can Trust
We believe travel journalism is only as good as its integrity. Our reviews are shaped by the reality of balancing professional careers with time at sea: Tom works in senior operations for a leading British charitable foundation, and Dom is a secondary school teacher and Head of Year.
Because we live in the real world, we understand that annual leave is precious and holiday budgets are hard-won. We do not look at a voyage through the rose-tinted lens of full-time press junkets. Instead, we evaluate every vessel with the analytical eye of paying guests, examining cabin ergonomics, culinary consistency, accessible transit, and genuine value for money. The result is grounded, reliable consumer intelligence that allows our international audience of mature, discerning travellers to invest their time and finances with complete confidence.
