Tips for your family cruise


The outdated view that cruises are luxury travel that is too expensive for families is no longer valid. Numerous cruise lines such as TUI Cruises - Mein Schiff, AIDA Cruises, MSC Cruises and Costa Cruises offer cruises that are fantastic value for money and  will keep you and your family well entertained.

Imagine being on board a cruise ship with the whole family for an Easter cruise, a Christmas cruise or New Year's Eve cruise and leaving the holiday stress behind? What a magical way to celebrate!

 

Cruise destinations for families


If your children are young, it is advisable to travel to closer destinations and go on a Mediterranean cruise, Baltic Sea cruise or Norway cruise, as the arrival and departure routes are not too long.

 

If your children are already a little bit bigger or if you are used to long trips, you may also consider Caribbean cruises as family cruises .

 

Since you usually discover a new destination every day on a cruise, this type of holiday is a fantastic experience, especially for children.

 
Entertainment for all ages


The best thing that cruises for families has to offer is certainly the variety - be it on board or ashore.

During the day, adults can relax on the sundeck, enjoy the cozy togetherness in the spa or indulge in one of the many sports or fitness classes. The little ones can play or participate in workshops at the Kids Club or enjoy the pool area with their parents. For teens there are specially organized teens outings (AIDA) or sports events. When grandma and grandpa come aboard, there are plenty of quiet places aboard where grandparents can relax: be it the library or the cafe. There’s plenty to do, even on days at sea.

 

In the evening, professional artists such as theatre actors, singers and musicians provide the perfect entertainment. Take a seat in the theatre and be inspired by the colourful performance! If you are not tired after a long and refreshing day at sea, then enjoy a freshly prepared cocktail at the bar or head straight to the disco and make it a night to remember!
