Hi,
We are hoping to book a cruise with our two sons 6, & 7 sometime this winter/next spring.
I have looked at a few sites and it all seems very complicated and you obviously need a fair amount of info before booking. So my question is what can you suggest to help - we are based near Barcelona and so want to stay in the Med or there abouts - which ships or cruise lines are good for first timers, should we do a mini cruise first? which cabins are better for a family (on a budget)? We want to go on holiday with our children rather than leave them in the child care facilities but would need activities to do with them. Is it better to book shore visits when booking or leave it until you are on board? etc. any thing really - I am sure it all seems very basic to anyone who has travelled this way before but it all looks very daunting from where I am! Thanks for all your advice in advance.
