What is Life Like Aboard a Cruise Ship?
If you’re new to cruising, this is a great question and an important one to ask. One of the biggest benefits of cruising is all the amazing amenities you receive while you’re onboard. Modern cruise ships are often referred to as floating cities as they are destinations all on their own, packed with activities, food and drinks and even experiences that are designed for all ages and travel styles.
Depending on the ship, you can enjoy multiple pools, water parks, and hot tubs; Broadway-style shows, live music, and comedy; world-class dining from casual to fine dining; kids’ clubs, teen lounges, and family activities; and spas, fitness centers, and adult-only retreats. For families, couples, and groups, cruising means everyone gets what they want without compromising anyone’s experience.

Ocean Cruises vs. River Cruises:
Which Is Right for You?
Ocean Cruises
Ocean cruises are perfect for travelers who love variety, entertainment, and iconic destinations. These cruises sail across open seas and stop at world-famous ports while offering endless onboard amenities.
These types of cruises including amazing destinations in the Caribbean, Mexico, Alaska, Canada, the Mediterranean, Asia and Central and South America. Because of their flexibility and frequency, they are ideal for families who crave activities and adventure for all ages, couples looking for fun, flexibility, romance and intimacy, and groups celebrating milestones like birthdays or retirements, reunions or just like to travel together.
River Cruises
River cruises offer a completely different type of adventure as they use smaller ships, have fewer passengers, and stop right in the heart of historic cities and towns. These cruises are ideal for couples and empty nesters, travelers who love culture and history, and guests who prefer a slower, more immersive pace.
Popular river cruise regions include Europe’s iconic rivers like the Danube and Reine where you can explore the scenic wine regions, historic capitals, storybook towns, and countryside villages, breathtaking castles and so much more. Plus, you can float down the Nile River and take in Egypt or even travel the Mekong River and discover Vietnam and Cambodia. Most cruises are handicap accessible.
