1. They’re affordable – many amenities and more are included in your cruising ticket, which in comparison to other travel options might save you hundreds of dollars. Accommodation, travelling from port to port, activities, entertainment, and in some cases the majority of your food and drink are included. This makes it easy to budget for your holiday, and removes some of the stresses whilst you’re away when it comes to unknown/surprise expenses. However, it’s still a good idea to bring some spending money for optional activities, additional restaurants and bars, souvenirs and tips.

 

2. Multiple destinations, minus the navigation – getting from point A to point B can be one of the most stressful parts of travel; however when you’re on a cruise, the hard work is done for you. Your accommodation moves as you move, so you can say goodbye to wasted days in transit, waiting for check in every time you go to a new location. Plus, you can avoid the dreaded packing and unpacking (until it’s time to go home that is)! Better still, when on a cruise you will likely see a number of different destinations along the way, so you don’t need to sacrifice variety for convenience.

 

3. So many activities – There lots to do while on board a cruise ship, so much so that you may find it hard to pack it all in before going home! Some examples of the facilities, entertainment and activities you may be able to enjoy on a cruise include:

 

• Swimming pools

• Live music, comedy shows and theatrical productions

• Surf and skydive

• Mini golf and bowling

• Outdoor cinema

• Fitness classes and spas

• Zip line

• Ice skating
