Whenever I encounter someone who proclaims “I love to travel but I wouldn’t be caught dead on a cruise ship!!”, my response is “I have a ship for you!” Then I steer them towards small ships where they will encounter nary a typical cruise ship activity   like formal nights, floor shows, [...]

While you can’t visit the Alps, Grand Canyon or Yellowstone Park by cruise ship, many of the world’s most intriguing places are best explored by waterborne conveyance.     The perfection of a cruise is that when you travel by ship you can be as enriched and fulfilled as you desire, or pursue each day at a [...]

While it may seem that cruising is strictly a mass market vacation with ships carrying up to 6,000 passengers and activities geared towards families with little kids, endless buffets and cabins smaller than most kitchens, there’s another side that is decidedly more refined. Aboard a handful of luxury ships are suites with sublime creature comforts [...]

Cruisers often complain they feel “nickeled and dimed” because of all the extra costs that pop up during their vacation. However, you’ll never hear that from Regent Seven Seas’ passengers thanks to pricing that is as all-inclusive as you can get in the cruise industry. When you purchase a luxury cruise from Regent, [...]

A question I’m frequently asked, “What’s The Best Cruise Line?”, is tough to answer because it’s subjective; what I personally consider the best may not be ships you adore.  So it’s wonderful that Conde Nast Traveler asks readers to rate the cruise lines’ food, service, cabins and itineraries to ferret out the top 10 cruise [...]

Travel & Leisure magazine annually polls readers about their favorite hotels, airlines, destinations and cruise lines.   In the cruise categories,  cruise lines are selected by category:  large ship, small ship and river boats.
Here are readers picks for large ship cruise line.  (Note:  Crystal, Regent, Oceania & Azamara ships carry fewer than 1000 passengers and, in [...]

Oh dear.
I just returned from a cruising aboard the 5,100-passenger Norwegian Dream to learn that the head of Holland America admits he’s “thinking” of building a 3,000-passenger cruise ship.  You don’t say something like this to a journalist unless it’s  certain that the formal announcement will follow in a few months.
And while the biggest ships [...]

Don’t get me wrong:  I love the Caribbean, especially in January.   But it’s a big planet and there are regions best visited by cruise ship.   While I prefer to visit most of Europe on my own (six hours in Florence or Rome?),  my most memorable cruises were in Hawaii, the Baltic and Greek [...]

Silversea Cruises will carry very special guest speakers when leading figures in Middle East politics, culture history and religion sail on Silver Wind during the 2011 World Leaders Symposium.  Sailing December, 29, 2011 from Amman, Jordon, the cruises’ notable participants include former U.S. Secretary of State James A. Baker, III, former Egyptian first lady Jehan [...]

Cruising aboard a luxury ship is the sort of rarefied travel experience most of us can only fantasize about. There are only a few cruise lines – the priciest afloat – where one finds caviar and bubbly served before dinner by a white-glove butler or very seasoned room steward. Men in black tie and women in [...]
