Cruise the carribean or the Med? |
Travel Info Which would you choose and why? Any done these cruses from the UK? Travel Tips I have been to the Caribbean many times and also to the Mediterranian on a cruise. The Caribbean cruise is best if you want just fun and sun, like swimming, snorkeling, scuba, para-sailing, or just lounging on the beach. On the other hand the Med cruise is best if you like historical things like visiting the Vatican and the Collisium in Rome, the tower of Pisa in Pisa, Poimpei in Naples, the Acropolis in Athens, or Ephesus in Turkey. That was all a part of the itinerary that we had. We also went to Mykonos and Santorini in Greece and Nice/Villafrance. If you do the Med cruise you will want to see all of the historic places and thus you will do tours many days. Thus you will not have the R & R type experience that a Caribbean cruise affords. But you will be happy to see all of the history. We did our Med cruise from Barcelona, Spain but we also did a Baltic cruise from Dover last year which was very nice. It went to Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, St Petersburg Russia, Poland, and Eastonia. If you peruse the cruise line web sites you will find some cruises to the Med and Baltic from the UK. Occasionally cruise lines do what they call "repositioning cruises" which bring ships from Europe to the Caribbean for the cruise season after they have a finished their Europe season. These generally happen just once a year each way. SO you really have to keep tabs on when they are being offered.

Other Travel Tips I would def cruise the Med, there is so much to see and so much history. If u can get one to go to Egypt it would be fantastic. Have a great time whichever one u do! Do the Med less of a treck too and from the ship. If you can get the Eastern Med even better. carribean. i went on a cruise and it was amazing. caribbean definately id say mediterranean because there is much more to see in greece and italy than the caribbean islands. probably cheaper as well |
