With around ten new ships setting sail every year, it's obvious that holidays at sea are becoming more popular and more affordable than ever. Put aside the ideas of the unaffordable luxuries of the steam age, or 'floating retirement villages' and open your eyes to a growing selection of cruise deals to suit every budget and every holiday wish-list.
Choose from cruise packages tailor-made for family fun, romantic relaxation, intrepid independent exploration, or even a combination of all of these. Cruises offer great value for money when traveling, because the journey becomes a holiday in itself. Seeing the world from the comfort and safety of a ship means no hectic flight schedules or check-in queues, so sailing is a great option for the less experienced traveler, the couple looking for a stress-free break, or a busy family who want to get to some must-see destinations.
Some of the big 'floating resort' style cruise packages are ideal for a fun packed family adventure. Many ships have spent years developing activity programs run by trained staff, and Royal Caribbean offer a specialist range of family holidays at sea. For fun for all ages, Carnival line cruise ships such as the Carnival Imagination feature on board mini golf and tropical swimming pools, and even an on-board water park. For something memorable and magical for the whole family, check out the cruise deals available from Disney. Offering a perfect balance of adult-only facilities and world renowned fun for kids, this is a really fun way to reach the Mexican Riviera or the American Pacific Coast, whilst enjoying everything you'd expect from the world's premier entertainment brand, including the only fireworks show on the waves.
Whether you're traveling alone and hoping to make new friends, or a couple looking to celebrate a special occasion, taking a cruise doesn't have to be an expensive or worrying experience. P&O Cruises have a selection of trips designed exclusively for adults, so if you're a fun-loving single, someone who wants a holiday without the family, or you're looking for an efficient and easy way to see the world, you can travel in a relaxed atmosphere with like minded passengers. The P&O Arcadia features fine dining and wine bars with a hint of extravagance at the Orchid bar and restaurant, and exciting and exclusive modern dishes created by Gary Rhodes. With a pub, piano Bar, nightclub and comedy evenings, you'll soon feel welcome and relaxed, regardless of who you decide to holiday with or who you may meet on holiday.
If you ever thought that booking a discount cruise meant cutting back on luxuries then think again. By agreeing to meet the strict standards set by the Cruise Lines International Association, the ships in the Holland America fleet are just some of the modern liners working to reduce their ecological impact by operating under environmental management plans. By working maximising on-board energy efficiency and reducing waste and carbon emissions, the savings made by the company can be passed on to the passenger, meaning you get to travel in style, without compromising on your ethics or your budget.
