Why Is a Cruise Holiday the Right Choice for You?


In 2010 alone, over 20 million travelers chose a cruise holiday.
Top ten reasons why cruising is right for you:
1. A cruise vacation is excellent value for your money Before you even depart, you'll know exactly how much your cruise vacation will cost you. Meals, entertainment, accommodation, and your transport to exciting and incredible destinations along the way are all included. If you choose to enjoy additional activities or amenities such as spa treatments, on and off board shopping or alcoholic beverages, these will be your only extra expenses.
2. Excellent dining options If you're cruising, be sure to bring your appetite. On board each cruise ship you'll find a variety of culinary treats, prepared by highly qualified chefs, available at any time of day or night. You can treat yourself to an incredible multicourse meal or pick up a tasty snack at an on board café.
3. Spoil yourself on a cruise holiday Holidays are meant to be a time for you to treat yourself well, and cruises provide every opportunity to let yourself be pampered. Every type of cruise vacation, from 3 days around an island to 30 days across the Pacific, offers multiple opportunities to sit back and allow the excellent staff to meet your every holiday need on board, 24 hours a day.
4. Variety is the spice of life on a cruise vacation Anything that a traditional resort can offer can also be found aboard your cruise ship. The advantage is that while you're being transported from one exciting destination to the next, everything is at your fingertips anytime of the day or night. Whether you're in the mood to see a fabulous live show, take a day trip on shore, relax at an onboard spa, or sit back and enjoy the ocean view, your every whim can be met on a cruise vacation.
5. There are cruise holidays for everyone Across the globe, at every time of year, there are cruise ships departing to world famous destinations. From small and economical to extensive and luxurious, choose your dream holiday for any length of time and you will find a cruise that suits you.
6. Cruise Holidays keep it simple Once you've booked your cruise and arrived on board, your cares and hassles can disappear. No more packing and unpacking, carrying luggage or arranging connections to multiple destinations. You won't even have to worry about dinner reservations, or paying as you go. Cruise holidays are unique journeys that allow you to truly experience each moment of your holiday without making additional plans or arrangements.
7. Cruises are for the whole family Cruise holidays offer something enjoyable for every member of the family, as well as many activities that can be enjoyed together. Everyone can find an activity to suit them: kids, parents, and grandparents will all find something right for them aboard a cruise ship. There is often a discount for traveling with children, as well as on board child care and activity specialists to ensure that the children have a safe and exciting time while Mom and Dad enjoy their own activities.
8. Romance is in the air on a cruise vacation Day and night there are activities and opportunities for vacationing couples to enjoy each other's company on board and in the romantic destinations of their choice. Dancing, dining, amazing secluded shorelines, champagne under a moonlit view of the sea from your balcony on board, these are just a few of the romantic experiences available on a couples' cruise vacation.
9. High customer satisfaction More than any other vacation experience, cruises are rated the most satisfying.. In fact, the majority of travelers who choose a cruise will return for a second time, either to the same destinations or new ones.
10. Cruise Holidays truly have it all Not only can you see the world on a cruise, you can enjoy any activity of your choice while you do so. From sailing to the far corners of the globe to view its natural wonders to relaxing on a pristine Caribbean beach, to dancing into the night with your sweetheart, cruises bring you the ultimate in holiday enjoyment.

Cruising the Blue Mediterranean Part 2

Popular Mediterranean cruises include a tour of the North African nations, a Mediterranean islands cruise that visits the island nations of Cyprus and Malta, as well as cruises around the Greek Islands. If you're after a longer vacation, it is possible to arrange a cruise itinerary that takes you around most if not all of the Mediterranean.

History, culture, grand cities, ancient monuments, romantic islands and breathtaking views are all within easy reach on a Mediterranean cruise. In the Western Mediterranean you can discover the traditional white Andalucian villages of Southern Spain, sample the world-famous Manzanilla sherry in Cadiz and visit the cultural hub of Europe in the shape of Barcelona, before travelling onwards to the French Riviera..

A cruise that takes in the wonderful coastline of Italy yields such treasures as the dormant volcano of Mt Vesuvius, ancient Pompeii and the stunning city of Rome. The islands of Sicily and Sardinia hold many delights too on a Western Mediterranean cruise..

In the Eastern Mediterranean, cruise passengers can discover the spectacular Croatian coastline and its beautiful city - Dubrovnik, before diving southeastwards to sample classical Greece and its sultry islands. The island of Crete is always worth a visit, if only for the historic Palace of Knossos.

A visit to the holy city of Jerusalem is a worthwhile excursion from both Israeli ports - Haifa and Ashdod - on a Mediterranean cruise of the Middle East. Egypt's Port Said is well worth a visit too. Port Said provides access to the world famous Suez Canal, which takes vessels into the Red Sea and onwards in to the Arabian Sea. The Mediterranean region has seen many a civilization rise and fall. It is a crucible of human evolution and is rich in relics left over by more than 6,000 years of occupation. If you've ever wanted to discover what it felt like to be an Egyptian pharaoh, Roman warrior or a Greek philosopher, a Mediterranean cruise can give you just that opportunity.
