Hi, I’m Matthew Hawkins, a Cruise Specialist at LoveitBookit. With 13 years in the travel industry and a real passion for cruising, I’m here to help you plan a holiday that’s as seamless as it is unforgettable. I love matching clients with the perfect ship and itinerary, making sure every detail is covered and there are no surprises - just smooth sailing from start to finish. One of my all-time favourite cruises was with Explora Journeys, sailing from Miami to Barbados with unforgettable stops in St Lucia, St Barts, Antigua and Guadeloupe. What makes cruising so special to me is the chance to explore multiple countries in one trip, all while enjoying world-class dining and incredible entertainment onboard.

My top tip? Be prepared – pack smart and double-check passports and visas before you go!
