You will find really great food!

It’s impossible to miss the HUGE football field size pool in the middle!!!

And beaches 🏖️ beaches everywhere!

Believe it or not - it is absolutely possible for a family to cruise affordably!

One of the deals we love to take advantage of is ‘Kids Sail Free’

It is because of this generous offer that our children have become seasoned travelers

With ‘Kids Sail Free’ (list details here)

Did you know that the Norwegian Joy ship hosts a 2-story speed way at sea?

We can attest to how fun a feature like this is on a cruise ship! It’s 100% worth a go 😉

🕺🏻 Artistry and Entertainment 🕺🏻

Hands down the best on-board show we’ve seen over the course of our many cruises has to be Noise Boys that was aboard Norwegian Prima

This show is all about the beat and showcasing quality talent

Between tap dancers, beat-boxers, musicians and an exceptional singer/rapper you are guaranteed to be amused

We were! So much so we saw it twice ✌🏻

It is not often we seek out to see a show multiple times, but this one was worth it and sits high on the list of recommendations if it is ever showing on one of your trips!

A fun read from royalcaribbeanblog . com came out recently that posed a discussion around this topic

Based on our track record, you would think the answer is YES!

However, although traveling as a whole releases all the happy chemicals that feed our sense of adventure, adrenaline and dopamine - you cannot “technically” become addicted to cruising

➡️ That does not mean you can’t become obsessed with it though! (No judgement here, you’re in good company) 😉

When it comes to excursions throughout your cruise our best advice is to shop around

Sure you can book through the boat, and there is definitely a convenience to that….but it will not always be your most affordable option

Not only can booking your excursions through the ship be more expensive - it also limits your options for things to do at your destinations

By shopping around you have the opportunity to find super fun and affordable activities that are sure to make for memorable experiences

A few things we’ve done by booking outside the ship include: Ziplining, All-inclusive beach parks, Cave Tubing, ATV exploring & cliff jumping!

We’re here to help if you are looking for more affordable ways to have fun in port!

As someone who loves to be entertained, my favorite activity on board a cruise ship is by far the Flow Rider

I may not be a pro-surfer, but it’s hard to deny how fun it is to take a spin on the surf simulators on board the larger ships.

It’s you, against 30,000 gallons of rushing water

Starting out boogie-board style is 100% acceptable, and as you get more accustomed to it you’ll end up like me - braving the stand up surf style, attempting an occasional spin or trick!

Pretty much everyone wipes out, so don’t let fear stop you! It is way too much fun to sit out.

Reach out and I’ll point you to which ships have this super fun activity and how you can get on board to try it out for yourself!

Take a stroll through the Norwegian Prima

We were granted the opportunity to experience this ship as travel agent guests so we could spill the tea on everything it has to offer, so….buckle up!

This is an excellent cruise option for those that are wishing to unwind and relax with the feeling of luxury

There were very few children on board, and the ship truly is designed for adults to have everything they could want and more!

It hosts 8 specialty dining restaurants, along with 6 other dining options including the unique experience that is Indulge Food Hall - This tapas style, eat around the world, design was so enjoyable. We ate their many times and the Bacon wrapped dates are a MUST TRY!!!

You will find multiple bars & lounges on board that will cater to whatever mood you are in that day. Looking for fun and excitement, check out the Speedway Bar. Ready to take it easy and enjoy a conversation, head to the Observation Lounge.

This ship does a great job at catering to the active cruiser too! There is a 3-level go cart Speedway on board, an excellent mini gold course (that is shaded instead of out in the hot sun 😎), and even a darts lounge that you can rent for up to 6 people! So much fun! It also has 3 slides on board for the thrill seekers.

And don’t worry! If you’re not interested in being super active on your relaxing vacation….you definitely want to check out their beautiful spa! With a gorgeous thermal suite, massages, aroma therapy, and specialty treatments you’re bound to find more than one way to let it all melt away.

Needless to say, the Norwegian Prima is a top notch ship to explore and enjoy. The luxury feel in every detail makes it a great vacation for adults to soak in the entire cruise experience. To hear more about the itineraries that this ship is offering, reach out and we’ll help you find the best fit for your next trip!

A question we get asked a lot is: Why would I use a travel agent when I can book a cruise myself at the same price?

Here are some of our favorite reasons to share:
🛳️ If something goes wrong or you need to make a change you don't have to spend hours of your time on the phone with customer service
🛳️ If the price for your trip drops, or a special promotion is announced, you don't have to worry about missing it
🛳️ Instead of doing all your own research you can leverage the knowledge of a seasoned travel professional

We tend to over deliver because we truly want you to have the best cruise experience and love cruising as much as we do

So sure, you can go ahead and book it yourself for the same price...but your time is valuable and there is so much more that goes into making your vacation one to remember

It is hard to pick a favorite ship, but our favorite class is the Oasis class

The reasons why are endless

There are so many activities on board that you will never find yourself bored or looking for something to do! Whether you prefer to relax and take it easy soaking by the pool, strolling through central park, or hanging out in one of the lounges....OR you love to get active on the flow rider, zip line, rock wall, slides, or interactive shows....

From bars, food & shows, to activities for kids and kids at heart
LITERALLY everything is covered on board an Oasis class ship!

Take a tour yourself and see why this class is by far our favorite to travel

We're exploring the things you need to know about Oasis Class in this edition of Royal Caribbean Top 5. This is not your same old cruise. This is a high-thri...

Let's get honest for a moment

Cruising is a great vacation option because it's all inclusive - and it can definitely be done on a budget

However, to get the most out of your cruise experience, you want to be realistic about your budget

If you're planning to vacation during peak travel season (think spring break and summer) expect to pay higher, more premium, prices. In order to experience larger ships with more to do on board, realize that more investment is required.

We are in the business of ensuring that our clients get to enjoy all there is to do through a cruise vacation. This means helping you understand in advance that although you can cruise on a budget, the healthier the budget the more options you will have available to you.

And of course we will help you take advantage of all the best deals and promotions Ieading up to your trip!

There is seriously something for everyone!

When it comes to food options while cruising you will never find yourself staring aimlessly at the pantry wondering what to eat

Each ship hosts MULTIPLE restaurants and dining options that cater to a wide variety of cuisines

Our personal favorite to date is Wonderland on Royal Caribbean

This restaurant is truly a trip down the rabbit hole and into another world

The food is all top notch with each dish having it’s own unique presentation and flair and the experience is unmatched - from menu’s you have to paint on to read, to the mad hatter running around to entertain guests - it is truly a one of a kind experience!

Common Question: When is the best time to cruise?
Answer: Anytime, really!

If you’re looking for the best price with that question then you’ll want to seriously explore the off-season.

Off-season for cruising is between April-May, and August-October

You’re going to find better prices around these months because of the school schedule and weather patterns. However, you can still absolutely find promotions and deals happening all throughout the year if your schedule is more restricted.
