Berlitz Cruising & Cruise Ships 2016

If you want a holiday that’s hassle-free, virtually pre-paid, and that lets you see lots of places while only needing to pack and unpack once, then you should try a cruise. The Berlitz Guide to Cruising & Cruise Ships is the cruise industry bible: it gives you all the information you need to choose the…

Five Things To Consider Before Embarking On Your First Cruise

There’s nothing quite like a cruise to help you unwind. The scented ocean breeze, calming open water and the chance to see several destinations in one holiday, they all have a unique appeal and a cruise can make it a reality. If you have never cruised before then some aspects can seem a little daunting,…

It’s Not A Boat, It’s A Ship!

A Post-Cruise City Break In Amsterdam

I recently boarded Crystal Symphony for a 4-night cruise and our disembarkation port was Amsterdam.

Some Motion In The Ocean (Exactly The Kind You’re Thinking Of!)

I have posted so many images over the last several years, most of which have shown people enjoying the fun and games onboard, ships docked at beautiful sun-kissed islands, and some very colourful sunsets, but then I realised that those days when the sea has been a little lumpy and the sky a little grey have…

I Have NO Cruise Control

I have no cruise control, so I suppose that means I am just like you – you must have a voyage in mind, it doesn’t necessarily need to be booked, but it will be something you check the price of on a daily basis – am I right? My obsession started before I even left…
