When it comes to planning the ultimate getaway, there are so many reasons why cruise holidays rank among the most popular travel options. First of all, they’re completely stress-free. On a cruise holiday, all the planning is taken care of by the cruise line – from the destinations you sail to and the shore excursions available at each port, to a full range of entertainment and activities happening onboard every day. If you’re not a planner, or if the only things you’re looking to focus on during your getaway is savouring great food, relaxing and soaking up the sights, cruise holidays are the way to go. A cruise holiday is also a great option if you’re travelling with the whole family, especially when you opt for a Royal Caribbean cruise. All of the ships in this cruise line’s fleet offer family-friendly experiences for guests of all ages. Even little ones will find plenty of ways to play with spaces and activities designed for tots to tweens. One of the top reasons savvy travellers love cruising, though, is because of the incredible value it offers. With Royal Caribbean, your cruise fare includes access to most of the ship’s attractions, select dining venues and all of the entertainment onboard. If you want to make your experience even more all-inclusive, you can opt for drink and speciality dining packages that cover drinks and dinner at some of the most exclusive restaurants in the fleet.
