Cruises

Cruise holidays can represent some of the most memorable events of your lifetime.  These excursions are often associated with amazing levels of luxury and access to truly amazing destinations.  Let's also not forget that you can choose from a nearly unlimited number of routes.  Whether you are a fan of the golden sands associated with the Mediterranean Sea or you are instead interested in seeing the fjords of Finland for the first time, there is no doubt that you will love what is in store.  Are there any suggestions to keep in mind before leaving and how can you be sure to enjoy your time away from home?

 

Encountering the Best Prices

 

As a general rule of thumb, cruises tend to be slightly more expensive than aeroplane flights.  This is due to the simple fact that a good portion of the holiday is the journey itself.  Prices are often based around variables such as the number of travellers, the type of accommodations and other factors including whether or not you will be paying for meals out of your own pocket.  Having said this, the “off season” in regards to cruises to and from the United Kingdom is generally during the autumn and winter.  Prices will be lower and there tend to be more spots available.  If you are dealing with a limited budget, it might be better to book a cruise during this time of the year.

 

Appreciating the Concept of “All Inclusive”

 

Many cruise carriers offer all-inclusive travel packages.  While these are great ways to save money, please keep in mind that they are often associated with a certain number of exclusions.  Some of the expenses that might not be addressed within an all-inclusive cruise include:

 

  • On-shore expenses such as food and drink.
  • Top-shelf liquor while on board.
  • Extra services including massages and spa treatments.

 

The good news is that these stipulations are always laid out within the terms and conditions, so be sure to read through these documents carefully.

 

Going Ashore

 

You will often have the chance to disembark at specific points during certain times of the journey.  Always be sure to adhere to the schedule laid out by the cruise ship. There are plenty of guided tours and the majority of these are provided at no additional cost.  If you choose to spend free time exploring a city or region, keep an eye on the time.  Finally, it is better to bring along travellers cheques as opposed to cash. If you happen to lose these cheques, they can be reimbursed.  The same cannot be said for cash.

 

Cruises are great ways to experience the world from an entirely different perspective when compared to an aeroplane.  They are relaxing, entrancing and above all, luxurious.  These suggestions will enable your upcoming journey to represent the epitome of entertainment while still providing memories to last a lifetime.
