This is an oldie but a goodie!

I remember the stories told by my grandparents from their cruises to Nassau – all fine dining and shuffleboard, right? As great as that may have been for them, it didn’t sound like it was for me. Due to that, I grew up thinking that cruising was for “old” people, or at least those that are retired. 

I’ve been married for 40 years now, so I’ve had a couple of friends that honeymooned on a cruise. Omg, has cruising changed since then! Anyway, it totally makes sense because cruises are “romantic” right? Cruising can be quite romantic, however they are for EVERYONE! Any age, older, younger or middle :-).

So what is it cruising really like today?

Cruising is a popular vacation for families, couples of all ages, and even singles. The fact is that there REALLY is something for everyone! I will caution you that a “one-size all approach” doesn’t work for cruising. Some Cruise Lines, or even certain cruise ships, are a better fit for some than others. 

1. Do you love the idea to rock-climbing, zip-lining, a ropes course and other adventurous activities? Do you love a lively atmosphere with pool games and DJ or band? Then Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Lines or Carnival may be for you.
2. Are you a foodie? Do you dream of decadent desserts and homemade pastries? Do your vacation dreams include more tranquil moments by the pool or at the spa? Are you looking for quality entertainment but you may be happy sitting and chatting with new and old friends at the piano bar or lounge? Perhaps Celebrity Cruises or Princess Cruises are for you.
3. Do you appreciate a vacation filled with the finer things in life and are you charmed by some of the nostalgia of classic cruising? Does a traditional Afternoon Tea with scones and “petits fours” appeal? Sounds like Holland America or Cunard may be the right fit.

I’ve named just a few, however these are some of the most popular and recommended cruise lines. There are of course other Cruise Lines, including some that offer a very upscale and all inclusive product.
