Cruises guide



What is a cruise?

Booking a cruise is something that differs from the usual type of travel, but in a positive way. You usually visit one city per day and move between cities and countries while sleeping. Experience a fantastic day in Barcelona, ​​Spain and wake up in Rome, Italy the next day for new adventures and activities. You can usually book tours and activities when you go ashore, but most people choose to get around and experience each destination on their own. Timetables for each cruise are available in connection with boarding. 

The time you have to spend ashore each day varies from cruise to cruise and the distance to the next destination. If the ship is to be moved far during the night, this can result in you only being ashore between 09:00 – 15:00 while other days leave you ashore between 07:30 – 18:00. Disembarkation is not a requirement, however, you are more than welcome to stay and enjoy the whole day on the cruise ship and enjoy all its amenities. The same applies if you choose to return to the ship earlier.

Most ships hold shows, musicals and other attractions every night. However, be sure to try to book some shows on the first day, as they will be booked quickly. The boats’ activities, shows and spa areas vary from boat to boat and between the different actors. However, most boats usually follow the same theme with free food, free shows and snacks. 

Larger boats such as Harmony of the Seas from Royal Caribbean have their own cinema, skating shows, several pools and whirlpools, ice cream parlor, luxury restaurants, bungee jumping, surfing machines, casino, arcade games, shopping center and laser tag on board. All for free, except for a few À la carte restaurants. 

Breakfast, snack bars, buffet and 3-course meals in the main dining room are always included in the price and allow you to pick up as much food as you want, whenever you want. Alcohol packages can be purchased on site for those who want to expand their beverage package to all-inclusive.

ASIA CRUISE

Asia offers a plethora of cruise routes and often combines slightly larger countries for a longer period of time. However, note that the distances are longer which can result in fewer days ashore and more time spent on the ships. This is rarely a negative thing, as the boats are as big as a shopping center and have everything between heaven and earth.

Experience the great city of Tokyo, the fantastic sights of Hong Kong, Thai Bangkok or cool off on the beach in Vietnam. These are just a few of all the destinations you have the opportunity to visit. Asia cruises are guaranteed to have something for everyone and offer a change of scenery from the rest of the cruises.

Cruises to the southern Caribbean usually depart from San Juan, Puerto Rico. Western Caribbean from Florida Ports and Galveston, Texas. Eastern Caribbean from Florida and Baltimore, Maryland.

The eastern part of the Caribbean is most common to visit for those who want to catch up with several stops because all islands and stops are much denser and closer to each other, unlike the western Caribbean which has a few more days at sea. All types of cruises in the Caribbean are good, no matter which route you choose and all offer roughly the same range with a few exceptions.

The weather is always good and the population is very welcoming on every island. This makes the Caribbean the most common and most appreciated cruise option.
