The More You Know...
Cruising is a FANTASTIC way to do multigenerational travel. Do you have grandparents in their 60s/70s or older in your family? Does anyone have mobility issues? How about dietary concerns? Are you trying to figure out how to make everyone happy and still get your toddler a nap at 3 pm? What about food? How can you have an elevated food experience on vacation and still feed your 5 year old chicken nuggets? What if you want to go ziplining with your teenagers but still spend plenty of time with grandparents? Do the adults want to watch all of the kids swim with dolphins? How about a round of trivia with the men vs the women of the family? Bingo as a group is a WHOLE lot of fun! Are you tired of renting a huge beach house for 15-20 people and having to cook and clean all week?

The answer for our family for 23 years has been cruising.

My kids started cruising at age 2 and we did a huge multigenerational cruise every other year with the entire family. It's been such a gift to spend so many years laughing and traveling together. It's something everyone looks forward to and something that we intend to continue for generations to come.

Why not start a legacy? It's never been easier.

DID YOU KNOW?
In many cases, a Disney Cruise is less expensive overall than a Disney World vacation.

You’ll enjoy amazing Disney service, some of the best food at sea, all of your favorite characters, world class entertainment and the stage shows you love from Broadway. You won’t even miss fireworks, Disney is the only cruiseline with fireworks at sea! The cherry on top? Great itineraries with a stop at one or both of Disney’s private islands.

It is a slower and more inclusive experience with all of the Disney magic and none of the stress!

Today’s cruise focus tidbit is all about river cruising!

River Cruising is certainly unique. The ships are much smaller and you’ll sail through the heart of one or more countries, with abundant opportunities to explore each stop in depth.

There is a brand for every traveler.
With premium river cruise companies such as AmaWaterways or Avalon Waterways, you’ll find affordable fares, excellent amenities as well as transfers and shore excursions.

If you want a five-star, all-inclusive experience that redefines luxury cruising, opt for a river cruise with high-end companies such as Uniworld Boutique Luxury Cruises and Tauck.

Specialty river cruises can transport you to: European Christmas Markets, Oktoberfest, Biking itineraries, Wine themed sailings, schedules that include cooking classes with private restaurant experiences, and even US based sailings that dive into our country’s rich history.
If you are really looking for adventure, I dare you to peek at sailings of the Amazon and Nile, those are bucket list items for me!

Here's your next cruise tip for my "Year of the Cruise" series.

GOURMET FOOD EXPERIENCES!!

Gone are the days of endless buffets, lines at midnight buffets and eating the same thing all week long. Cruising in 2025 is a foodie's delight.

Think about a cruiseline like Oceania where there is a chef for every 10 people and your dishes are bespoke masterpieces.

Even the mega ships have moved away from the buffet model and offer dining experiences like full hibachi dining, dinner theater, and experimental tabling. There are affogato carts, mixology classes, cirque de soleil theater dining, and even cook your catch after a fishing excursion.

The dining game has reached a new level on cruises with each brand trying to outdo their competition. Famous chefs have restaurants on board and there are truly Michelin style experiences everywhere you look.

Bon appetit!

If you are intrigued by that gorgeous fog - that was taken on our cruise to Alaska with Princess Cruises. In my opinion, they are the best of the large brands for all things Alaska. Puppies on the piazza, Discovery at Sea with naturalists, and cruising Glacier Bay are all reasons that my vote for Alaska is Princess Cruises.

Adult only cruising - yes, it's available.

There are some cruise lines that are "adult focused" and a few that are truly 18+.

There are MANY cruise lines that have restricted areas that are adult only and even room categories in adult only sections.

There are so many different levels of adult only travel, it can be hard to know what is a child-free fun atmosphere and what is exclusively quiet and contemplative. Send me an email with what you are looking for and I can steer you in the right adult-only direction!

Interested in the hottest travel trend for 2025? Spoiler alert - it's cruising.

The cruise industry has exploded...it has also evolved. Cruise lines are offering elevated experiences within the typical cruise experience. Thoughtful family suites and areas are becoming standard, rooms for families of 5 and connecting staterooms for multigenerational families. Superb concierge amenities - a resort within a ship concept for adult only trips. Neighborhoods at sea with more than you can do in a week. Relaxation, adrenaline, exploration. There is a brand for every type of traveler.

Cruising isn't for you? I'd urge you to reconsider. Imagine itineraries to the Galapagos Islands, Alaska, Bali and the Maldives. Small yacht experiences to Greece and the Aegean Sea. Curated expeditions to unusual destinations with expert naturalists. Amenities and experiences to make even the most savvy and discerning traveler smile.

Cruising in 2025 isn't the cruising you may imagine. Stay tuned all month while I show you why 2025 is "The Year of the Cruise" and why you should entertain the idea for your family or group. Best news of all? It's more affordable than you think!!

Art is the central concept at the adult only property Xcaret Arte. Not only is the resort a gallery with art everywhere you look, there are free art classes available all day long, every day. You can choose from weaving, pottery, painting, watercolors, and more. We opted for a linoleum print workshop. Each workshop is an hour long and you get to bring your art home. I want to be clear, this isn’t a craft lesson. This is a workshop with a talented artisan guiding you to be your most creative self. I know of NO other resort that offers this kind of inclusion!!

We just returned from an incredible resort in Riviera Maya Mexico! We have been to the family side of this resort before but decided to give the adult resort a try now that our kids are grown. We even took them along as a bonus this time! I wonder if you can guess the name of the resort. I’ll do a deep dive this week telling you all you need to know- because it’s a LOT!!
