A cruise for you, and you, and you too!!!

I am often contacted by clients who have a burning desire to cruise, but they then tell me their partner is against the idea. What “What can I do?” they ask me. A tricky one naturally.

My answer usually is:

“no two people are alike and we all enjoy different things, but a cruise is well worth considering because there is something for everybody. Your partner won’t need much convincing that a cruise might be fun.”

I then give them six great reasons why a cruise is such a great choice for a holiday:

1 – THE ITINERARY

The vast majority of cruise ships plan their itinerary so that the ship calls into a different port every day or every other day. This means normally only one day at sea between port visits and little time for your husband to get bored on ship. There are many activities he can join in when the ship is at sea. There will be bars, restaurants, keep fit classes, port talks, life-enriching lectures and cabarets to name a few. There will be many more choices than one might expect to find in a hotel onshore.

2 – THE SHIP

The real beauty of a cruise is that one gets to see multiple locations and keep the same hotel room (the ship) alleviating the need to constantly pack, wait in lines or take trains or planes. You might choose to splash out on a lavish suite if it’s a special occasion!! The ship takes you everywhere and on time. Not to forget food glorious food. Something to suit everyone.

3 – NO-FLY CRUISES

No fly cruises are very popular. A no fly cruise eliminates the need to fly to the ships’ port, avoiding hotels, travelling, hours of waiting and security checks. More often than not you can drive directly to the ship and your holiday starts the moment you step onboard.

4 – PORTS OF CALL

Cruise ships take passengers to interesting and exciting locations.
