subject: How To Enjoy A Family Vacation Cruise by:Gertie Guide [print this page] Have you been missing out on quality time with your family lately? Have you considered taking your whole family on a cruise? Cruise ships these days are more geared to family vacations than ever before. You can enjoy quality shared time with your kids and also have each member of your family choose special activities for their individual age and preferences.
The only organizing you have to do is to choose the package that best suites your family. Once you arrive at your cruise launch location, you let the cruise ship staff do all the rest. This way everybody gets to relax at the same time, parents included. A family cruise can give you an exciting and thrilling adventurous change from your standard, sometimes labor intensive, vacations of the past.
Cruisin' Along With The Kids
Kids will find many choices of on board activities, facilities and other special events like water slides, games, shows, movies, arts and crafts and so much more.
Family activities and contests are common, which allow for some friendly competition and the forging of new friendships. Some cruises will combine on-shore attractions at different ports of call to fit nicely into their family theme.
If you're traveling with very small children, almost all cruise ships have on board childcare. This will allow you to take some private time by yourself or with your spouse. You can enjoy, for example, a few minutes to pamper yourself at the spa, or enjoy a candlelit dinner with your spouse without worrying about the little one.
Choosing the Perfect Family Cruise
Your travel agent will help you find the cruise lines that specialize in family vacations. You can also do your own research and book your vacation cruise package using the Internet.
Most of the major cruise lines offer fun family package options such as Camp Carnival, Disney Cruise Lines, Celebrity Cruise Lines and Royal Caribbean Cruise Line, to name a few. Some of them even offer private destination adventure packages.
Create Fantastic Memories
Your adventure will never be forgotten when you bring your digital or video camera with you. Cruise ships also have staff photographers to capture your favorite moments, especially useful when you are in the action itself. Photos and video clips usually get posted a few hours later and you can pick and choose your favorite memories to bring home with you.
And The Awesome Food..
The cruise ship's menu does not take a back seat to any of these fun-filled activities. On the contrary, not only do they cater especially to the tastes of children, gourmet choices abound. It's first class all the way. And, you can choose healthy gourmet, vegetarian as well as indulge in rich dessert decadence any time. Because there is so much choice for all kinds of taste pallets, you may well want to avail yourself of the fitness activities like walkabouts, aerobics or yoga.
Family vacation cruises will give you such fun-filled experiences, and relationship memories to reminisce about for years to come.
