Shoe-string cruises, you’re having a laugh!
Having a giggle with all the family without breaking the bank -
that's all many of us want from a holiday. Gone are the days when
you could only find this on the Costa del Sol, now you can find
family fun at pocket pleasing prices all over the world on many
cruise lines.
Almost all-inclusive
This is one of the best features of cruising! For many cruise
lines the price you see already includes your flight, transfers,
accommodation, on-ship entertainment, activities and meals in most
of the on-board restaurants. This means you only have to fork out
for meals in speciality restaurants (and even then that's normally
only a small cover charge), drinks, spa treatments, shopping,
casinos and shore excursions. So in many cases, cruises are cheaper
than land-based holidays.
Fun in the sun
Fancy letting your hair down and having a ball? Then hop aboard
Thomson & Island Cruises, Carnival Cruises or NCL.
NCL have really got fun down to a tee. Go bowling on the first
alleys at sea, play Nintendo Wii on a two-storey high screen,
there's a rock climbing wall, tennis courts, excellent kids' clubs,
waterslides, hot tubs and cool pools. And if you've still got
energy left, there's up to 20 bars on every ship so you can drink
and dance the night away. Phew!
If you would prefer a quieter cruise holiday Thomson &
Island ships aren't necessarily as packed wall-to-wall with
features but there's still plenty of ways to have fun on board.
Each evening you'll find a choice of side-splitting comedy, live
bands and cabaret shows whilst your days are spent bubbling in the
spas or finding your feet in salsa classes.
Carnival Cruises show you a great time on board with waterslides
and a cool splash zone, exciting stage shows and heaps of kids'
activities from video games and karaoke to finger painting and
cartoons. So whichever cruise line you choose, you'll
find non-stop fun without going in the red.
