10 Reasons to Take a Summer Cruise This Year
There are many popular summer vacation destinations that attract several tourists throughout the season. Between overpriced drinks, crowds and traffic, these destinations very rarely deliver an exceptional experience though. If it is the perfect balance of amenities, enjoyment, relaxation, and escape you are looking for, a cruise ship has those things and more. In fact, if you are willing to try a new unforgettable experience, there are several reasons to take a summer cruise this year.
Stretch Your Money
When you set off on a traditional vacation rather than a cruise, it is difficult to ballpark what you are going to spend every day. This is because the costs of everything can quickly add up. From the transportation and activities to the hotel and food, predicting the final expense can be almost impossible. This is much different with a cruise as you can usually determine the extras you will be spending money on. A cruise offers both a room to sleep, means of transportation and a lot of things to do on board.
Wake up Somewhere New
A traditional hotel vacation cannot compete with the chance to wake up in a new port each morning. When you are on a cruise, you have the ability to take in many different scenes and points of interest packed into one trip. It is amazing to fall asleep in one destination and wake up in another.
Amazing Food
Cruise ships are well known for their delicious food. Especially since there are so many different options. From elegant dining options to around the clock buffets, there are so many yummy options to chose from.
Fun in the Sun
Cruises offer so many fun and exciting experiences in tropical destinations. From the ship’s sundeck to its pool, there are several onboard options for fun in the sun. Not only are there several options on the ship for those who want to sunbathe, but there are also many beautiful beaches that you will get the chance to enjoy.
Exciting Entertainment
From comedy shoes to Vegas-style cabarets, there is something for everyone. Cruise ships offer so many different options when it comes to onboard entertainment. In fact, every night there is a chance to enjoy something that caters to your tastes. Most cruises will offer up a daily newsletter that will show you when and where each show is being put on, helping you to plan your evenings.
Meet New People
Cruise ships offer up many opportunities to connect with new people. Whether you are meeting new people on the deck, at shows or at dinner, there are so many different ways to create new and exciting relationships on board a cruise ship. These relationships can end up being long lasting friendships.
Exceptional Experience
When you set off on a cruise this summer, you can expect to receive 5-star service. From mints on the pillow to a nightly turndown service, your cabin experience will be wonderful. In fact, there are head waiters and sometimes even sommeliers to attend to your every desire at dinner as well. The staff aboard a cruise ship are often helpful, pleasant and friendly, making sure to take care of your needs.
The Wildlife
Whether you are setting off to Alaska to see seals and whales or to the tropics to see stingrays and tropical fowl, you will get close up interaction with local wildlife. Sometimes, you can swim amongst the fish or with the dolphins. These experiences are once in a lifetime and a summer cruise gives you a front row seat.
Intense Relaxation
The beauty of going on a summer cruise is that you can go into instant vacation mode as soon as it has been booked. This is because there will be help with everything, so you no longer have to worry. There will be someone there that will help you with your bags, someone to transport you from the boat to the beach and someone that will plan your itinerary and activities for you. All you have to do is decide whether you want to perch by the pool or go on an adventure.
Because You Deserve it
The main reason to take a summer cruise this year is because you deserve it. You deserve the downtime, the relaxation, the beauty and the fun a summer cruise provides.
