Experience the thrills and spills
Gone are the days of formal Captain's dinners and pristine deck
shoes. The face of cruise has changed to reveal an endless choice
of cruise styles. If your idea of getting away from it all is
hair-raising adventure and white-knuckle action, you'll find that
both at shore and at sea.
Thrills at sea
Royal Caribbean International is one cruise line that have made
it their mission to ensure the action never stops, from Southampton
to St. Lucia. Modern and innovative their ships are huge floating
adventure parks, filled with surf simulating pools, climbing walls,
ice rinks, suspended whirlpools and boxing rings.
If you're hunting for action on a tighter budget then Carnival
are always a great choice. There's an infectious air of excitement
on board every one of their ships that comes from the splashing
down the waterslides on their newest ships, playing on 18-hole golf
courses and great kids' clubs so you can watch new releases on the
huge 22ft al fresco screen!
Spills on shore
When it comes to finding action and adventure at shore then most
cruise lines offer such a wide choice of excursions in every port
that you can't really go too far wrong. In fact, the premium cruise
lines such as Regent Seven Seas Cruises, Azamara Club Cruises and
Silversea Cruises offer personal excursions where they use their
local knowledge to create itineraries based around your dreams.
Sail with Hurtigruten and you can take a thrilling husky sledge
ride in Norway or let Princess Cruises sail you to St Lucia's
tropical forests and go zip wiring like Tarzan through the canopy.
How's that for action?!
