FAMILY CRUISES

Say goodbye to those dreaded words, “I’m bored!” on your next family holiday and book a cruise that ticks all the boxes.

✓ First up, the cruise ship!

With so many family-friendly cruise lines available to choose from, you’re sure to find a ship that offers the perfect blend of fun and relaxation for your family. A family-focused cruise offers a variety of onboard amenities, activities and entertainment to cater to everyone in the family – from the youngest cruisers to nan and pop tagging along for a multi-generational getaway. Tick!

✓ Next, the destination

Almost as important as how you get there is where you’re going. And with a cruise, there are so many amazing options for families, from the sun-soaked islands of the South Pacific to an outdoor adventure in Alaska, the choices are endless. Plus, you’ll get to stop in multiple destinations and only unpack once. That’s parental heaven right there. Tick!

✓ And finally, the price

Family cruises are now more popular than ever, and with good reason. With fantastic inclusions like staterooms designed for families, onboard meals, family-friendly activities, and incredible facilities such as ice skating rinks, water slides, youth programs, ziplines, rock climbing walls, and more, there’s something for everyone. And all at an affordable all-inclusive price. It’s another tick!

Family-friendly “transport”, destinations kids will love, and value-packed affordability compared to land-based family holidays? “Where can I book?” is all that’s left to say. Cruiseabout’s family cruise experts can help find the perfect cruise holiday deals for you. With access to exclusive offers and packaged holiday deals, your family will be setting sail on the high seas in no time.

⚓ Cruising is Fun for All Ages

There’s so much to do on a cruise, there’s little chance you’ll hear your kids complain, “I’m bored,” once you’re on board the ship. In fact, there is something for everyone, regardless of age, making it the perfect holiday option for kids, parents, and grandparents alike. From the youngest grandchildren to the wisest grandparents, the entire family will experience endless fun, relaxation, and moments of togetherness.

⚓ You Can Try Something New

Whether it’s your first cruise, or your 10th, a cruise holiday offers everybody the chance to try something new and exciting. Whether it’s a lifelong dream of swimming with dolphins or simply trying a new cuisine, there is always going to be something on board you and your family haven’t done or tried yet.

⚓ Kids Clubs

Need we say more? Dedicated kids clubs and youth programs are the answer to many parents’ prayers when it comes to cruises for kids. Parents can enjoy some much-needed adult-only time while knowing their kids are well looked after, entertained, and engaged in age-appropriate activities.

⚓ See the World

Travel is something that no book or movie can replace, and there is something very special about sharing that experience with your children. Witness their excitement as they explore new places, see history come alive, and learn to appreciate different cultures around the world.

⚓ Value-Packed, All-Included

With so much included in your cruise fare, including your transport, visiting multiple destinations, onboard dining, basic drinks, and fabulous entertainment and activities, a cruise offers so much value for money. It’s a very economical option for families when compared to land-based holidays.

With so many amazing things to see, do and eat, it may be tempting to plan out every minute of your day, but try to remember to also take some time out to relax and unwind. Slowing down your cruising routine will prevent you and your family from feeling exhausted by the end of each day, and needing a holiday from your holiday when you return home.

Rather than cramming your itinerary full of non-stop fun both on board and onshore, try to leave some breathing room. Even with the convenience of a kids’ program, travelling with children can be tiring, and sometimes a peaceful break in your cabin is exactly what everyone needs.
