I've given two different quotes as its been pretty impossible to price the whole thing as one quote with most places. Basically I am going to Chicago for a weekend with friends with accommodation there sorted - then the cruise is tagged on the end of the weekend in ChicagoI am really stuck with places to look for the cruise part of the deal - never cruised before so no idea where to look to get best deals and who to trust. Do I go direct or is an agent better? Any help would be really really appreciated
