Cruising

Margot Speed on 25 November 2014
Cruising is a great holiday; everyone should try it at least once.

There are so any benefits of cruising; here are a few of them. 1 You unpack once, settle in and get to see so many different places. 2 They offer full board, so you don’t need to budget for meals 3 Most offer beverage and excursion packages so all can be booked and paid in advance so you know what your spend will be. 4 You can get to know people from all over the world, there is time to chat and meet people at dinner or around the pool 5 There are so many different activities on-board, depending on the size of the ship; it can range from ice skating, surfing, rock wall climbing to the more sedate art galleries. There is something for all ages and tastes 6 It is wonderful for families, entertainment for kids and adults alike. Kids clubs and babysitting is available. 7 If you are looking for a romantic getaway, honeymoon or wedding anniversary a cruise is a perfect option. 8 Cruising offers world class shows and live entertainment 9 You can do as much or as little as you like on a cruise, it is always your choice.

There is really something for everyone on a cruise, from the large ocean liners, to smaller intimate river cruises or a gullet (a small yacht) on the Turkish or Croatian coast. It can fit your dream holiday and your budget, from basic 3 star cruises off the South African coast to 7 Star ships where you are treated like royalty.

If you have never cruised before, the MSC cruises off our coast can be one of the best ways to try it out without it costing you a lot of time or money.

There is still space on the MS Opera which is in our waters until 28 Mar ‘15.

If that is too soon, book now for the 2015/2016 season on Ms Sinfonia and benefit from the early booking discounts.
