Cruising is a wonderful way to visit multiple destinations while only unpacking once. You’ll savor world-class cuisine while enjoying local specialties. Cruise vacations allow you to do as much or as little as you’d like and cater to every type of traveler—from families to honeymooners to multigenerational groups. Even if you don’t think you’re a “cruiser,” you might be surprised by the options out there. For example, on an expedition trip you can see polar bears in Antarctica or travel by river through Europe’s iconic cities. And when night falls, the open sea transforms into your own private planetarium—perfect for stargazers who love watching Orion’s Belt, the Southern Cross, or the Milky Way stretch across the horizon.
