Cruises
People love to hop on a large boat and cruise to an exotic
location (often times more than one exotic location) as their
vacation or getaway. This is probably because cruises offer many
different opportunities that resorts or hotels do not.
Food is one attractant for people. A cruise offers breakfast,
lunch and dinner but they also have midnight buffets, afternoon
snack buffets, ice cream bars and 24-hour room service
available. Food is basically available round the clock. There
are casual and formal meals. Large or private meals. Of course
depending on the cruise line you choose will determine the
quality of the food. You must keep in mind that many of the
cruise ships are feeding approximately 2000 people 10 meals per
day!
Other people like the entertainment that is available. Most
cruise lines run full scale production shows, have bands play,
incorporate other special shows like magic or puppet for the
children. The Disney Cruise line offers meals with Disney
characters and special entertainment geared directly for the
younger crowd. Most cruise ships even have floating casinos.
Many adults love this, and use this as their evening
entertainment. Many cruise lines are like a floating day camp.
There are activities planned throughout the day for all ages. If
you choose to participate you can, but if you choose to just lay
by the pool and read a book or lounge lazily all day you can.
You can be as busy or as inactive as you choose.
Cruises offer one-stop-shopping. A cruise offers variety. You
can take one flight and get on one boat yet visit as many as
seven different islands or locations. To visit that many islands
by plane and then stay in a different hotel at each location
would be not only expensive but not much fun. You'd have to pack
and unpack several times not to mention wasting a lot of your
vacation time traveling. Once you are onboard a cruise ship you
leave only to visit the places that you
dock at. There is no
need to pack and unpack and while traveling to your next
destination, there is plenty onboard to keep you busy and
entertained.
There is a cruise line out there to fit every need of every
individual. Below are some of the things that make each line
unique.
Carnival Cruises offers something for everyone and is great for
the first time cruiser. There are many different ships available
that depart from many different ports around the country. Land
and sea prices are available for those who need to fly to a port
of departure. Destinations include: the Bahamas, Aruba, St.
Thomas, St. John, San Juan Puerto Rico, the Caribbean, the Keys,
Cozumel, Hawaii, Alaska, Martinique and Barbados just to name a
few.
Celebrity Cruises is a higher end cruise line. They have a
sophisticated AquaSpa on board as well as a unique art
collection offered on their Galaxy ship. They have received a
5-star rating for their cuisine (not food but cuisine) and
include an in-cabin entertainment and information center.
Radisson Seven Seas, Seaborn Cruises and Windstar Cruises offer
a little more luxury than even the Celebrity line. The Radisson
offers ultimate luxury by sailing smaller ships that have only
suites available. They also offer unique destinations such as
Tahiti, French Polynesia, Antarctica, the Mediterranean, and
Europe. The Windstar ships all have romantic trimasted ships and
sail to the Caribbean, The Americas, the Greek Isles and Europe.
No matter what you are wanting to get out of a vacation, whether
it be entertainment, relaxation, great food, or variety a cruise
offers all of that at a great price. The next time you are
planning a vacation, don't overlook that great big boat out in
the harbor.
