Can you recommend a good summer vacation cruise? |
Travel Info Anywhere on earth is fine. Travel Tips As far as best cruise, it really depends on what you are looking for. One of my favorite lines is Disney. Reasoning: The cruise ship is always spotless and they do a wonderful job of keeping it clean. The rooms are slightly larger than other lines, and trust me , on a cruise it makes a big difference. The shows are wonderful. If you have kids they will absolutely love the boat, it is probably the best line for families. The food has always been good. Finally, the staff. I have never experience service while travelling like I have on Disney, they go out of their way to make you comfortable and it is great. I think that Disney is a great option even if you aren't taking kids, it is just an all around great line. I feel, as do many others, that once you get off of a Disney cruise you will be spoiled. The price is very modest and affordable, but you feel more like you are on a luxury line. Carnival. Their prices are usually the lowest, but the quality of the cruise is a lot lower than other lines. In my experience the food hasn't been very good, the ship needed cleaned up and renovated really bad and the service didn't compare to other lines. If you read reviews of Carnival ships, you will see a lot of people have had the same experience. They advertise as being the fun ship. This is true if you are in to partying, gambling, drinking, etc. But I really don't like this type of thing, so the atmosphere wasn't very appealing to me. Plus, the age range on board is pretty young. You will find lots of young families and also college aged kids. So if you are wanting to stay away from kids this may not be a good line. This also tend to be a line for families, but I really am not sure that this is the most appropriate line to take kids. Royal Caribbean is a pretty good line. It kind of runs in the middle as far as price goes. They have lots of on-board activities and it is a lot of fun. I think this is a better option to take kids on than Carnival, but that is just my opinion. The average age tends to be a little bit older, but still a lot of fun and less partying. I think it is a great line. If you have kids it might be a better option than Disney, simply because they offer more choices for destinations. But if I had to choose between Disney and Royal Caribbean and destination really wasn't an option, I think I would go Disney hands down. If you are wanting a little more sophisticated feel and a more luxurious line, than I would look into lines like Princess, Oceania, Crystal, Celebrity, etc. These are all really great lines. They cost more than some other lines, but the service and food and overall cruise is well worth it. But again, this is a little more sophisticated group of cruises. So the average age is going to be older. If price doesn't matter, I would say either Oceania or Crystal. Both are fabulous cruises and they are wonderful. Here would be my order of preferance: 1). Crystal 2). Oceania 3). Princess 4). Disney 5). Holland America 6). Royal Caribbean 7). Norweigan 8). Carnival I think that is all of them. I'm having a brain freeze right now..... Celebrity is also pretty good, I would throw that somewhere in the middle. Oceania and Crystal are great and the best if you are wanting a bigger cruise line and not if you wanting a more intimate, small cruise. Windjammer is one example of a small cruise line, but there are several out there that are really good. For me, my preference is: Royal Caribbean for a small budget, Disney for a medium budget and maybe Ocean or Crystal for a bigger budget. Others I have no idea how old you are, who you plan on going with, where you are coming from and what your price range is. However, for a summer cruise I honestly think the Caribbean is a great place. You can choose from 3 different main itineraries (eastern, southern, western) and many different islands within those itineraries. To be safe I'd say to go with Royal Caribbean or Carnival since those are popular and mainstream companies. Princess and NCL are great too though. If you have the funds, I'd suggest getting a balcony stateroom. Have fun! |
