Are cruise holidays a good vacation value?
Is cruising affordable?
Many would-be cruise vacationers ask these and similar questions. The answer
is a resounding yes!
Cruise holidays allow passengers to see many interesting and exotic ports
all in one vacation. A land based holiday would require hours of
uncomfortable travel, agonizing waiting times, packing, unpacking, packing -
you get the picture - to see the same number of sites.
On vacation cruises, your time between ports is enjoyed in comfort and
luxury in your stateroom, elegant dining rooms, expansive sun decks, and
entertaining lounges and theatres. Activities abound day and night, so if
you doing nothing, it's because that is exactly what you want to do.
Meanwhile, your land based holiday would require more time packing and
traveling and less time relaxing and enjoying your vacation.
Even if your land based holiday is planned at only one resort, the balance
stills leans to a cruise holiday. Consider what is included in your cruise
vacation ticket:
-
Fabulous transportation from port to port
-
Well planned staterooms - some of which have private
balconies
-
Breakfast
-
Lunch
-
Dinner (enjoy exquisite cuisine in elegant dining rooms
if desired)
-
Midnight Buffet
-
Daily activities
-
Sports activities
-
Entertainment
-
Nightclub and Broadway style shows
-
Discos
-
Parties
-
Fantastic ports-of-call
Your only extra expenses would be drinks, purchases, optional shore
excursions and personal services like massages and hairstyling.
To get all of this in a land vacation, you must compare it to a 5 or 6-star
all-inclusive resort.
A cruise holiday is like vacationing in a six-star floating resort. The
number of amenities is amazing. The larger cruise ships have exercise rooms,
pools, hot tubs, a spa, a shopping area, walking and jogging tracks, bars,
lounges, a casino, a sports deck and of course, lots of lounges and sundeck
space. Some even have rock-climbing walls, ice skating rinks, and one new
ship even has a surf pool.
Most of the large cruise lines cater to family vacations as well. They offer
special programs for children and teens and even have special designated
areas for your kids to enjoy.
Now, with all that included, are cruise holidays still affordable? You can
plan a three or four day cruise vacation for as little as about $300.00 per
person. Some rooms alone in the vacation "hot spots" are more than that a
night!
There are cruise vacations suited to almost everyone. From day cruises to
world cruises, you can spend as little or as much time cruising as you can
afford and desire. Cruises are available in virtually every corner of the
world. Ocean cruises, river cruises, day cruises, dinner cruises, tall ships
cruises… the possibilities are endless!
