Top 5 Reasons to choose a Cruise Holiday
Guest Post by Jon
Ever consider spending your holidays on cruise? Cruise holidays are becoming an increasingly popular choice for holidaymakers, due to a host of factors including increased media coverage, price reductions and deals coupled with the many recent problems faced by Airlines.
Regardless of the reasons for an increase in people opting for a cruise holiday over a traditional land based holiday, the fact is that cruises holidays offer so much that you can’t get from a land based holiday. Below you will find the top 5 reasons for choosing a cruise holiday.
- Better Value – Most of the time you will find that cruise holidays offer much better value than land based or beach holidays. The reason for this is that most of the extra’s are all included within the price of the cruise. Food, Drink and most of the entertainment all come as part and parcel of the cruise, not to mention a wide range of activities available on board. Of course you can book an all inclusive deal for a beach holiday, but most of the time this will still work out more expensive than a cruise. There are also a number of options for a cheap cruise deal, which you can find through a quick internet search. A recent poll showed that over half of passengers agree that a cruise offers better value for money than an all inclusive package.
- Fine Dinning – Cruise ships offer up some of the finest food around with celebrity chefs frequenting the best cruise ships. There is always a wide range of choices available with speciality restaurants offering dishes from all corners of the globe.
- The Best of Both Worlds – Just because you are on a cruise holiday it doesn’t mean you have to spend the whole time aboard the ship. There is a huge choice when it comes to destinations and stop off’s with different cruise lines covering all parts of the world from a scenic Alaskan cruise to fun in the sun on a glorious Caribbean cruise and everything in between.
- Fun for the Whole Family – A cruise holiday is a great option for families. With a large selection of activities on board to keep the kids entertained, and plenty of room for parents to relax and soak up the sun on deck you are sure to have a hassle free holiday. There is also usually plenty of entertainment for the adults such as shopping and casinos, if you need a break from the sun.
- Tailored to Suit Your Needs – When it comes to choice nothing beats a cruise. Whatever type of holiday you are looking for you are sure to find a cruise that suits your needs. Special Interest Cruises are a big part of the cruise industry and there are lots of options, whether it’s a singles cruise, family cruise, senior cruise or even a honeymoon and wedding cruise that you’re after. These are just a few of the many good reasons to choose a cruise holiday, and with prices continuing to drop you are sure to find a great deal.
If you felt tired of flying few hours to your destination and walking after walking from one travel site to another, cruise holidays would be another travel option that you should try at least once. – Travel Feeder, the ultimate travel photo blog
I am one of those people who think travelling should be on land. Somehow, travelling by cruise just doesn’t seem like real travelling.
