What is the best cruise line for a family? And if you want a cruise during the summer, when should you buy? |
Travel Info My family consists of mom and dad ,a 17 year old guy (me), a 15 year old boy, and an 11 year old girl. My parents are thinking of going on either Carnival or Disney, but i looked at the websites and youtube vids (post your vacations for all the world to see!!!) and Carnival seems for more of an older generation, and I think Disney is just assinizing, with Mickey and friends constantly surrounding you. Royal Carribean looks perfect, but i don't know. Give me your imput, expereiences, youtube vids, etc., and be brutally honest. We need a damn vacation!!! Travel Tips I go with Carnival. They are cheaper, and I have always had a great experience with them. I prefer to cruise in Sept or Dec. This is when the kids are in school, so it is calmer. My kids homeschool, so we have this as an option. I do not go in the summer. The prices are at a premium then. Carnival is definitely not for older people. They offer programs for everyone. My kids love Camp Carnival. They break it up by age groups, so teenagers are not going to be stuck with 6 year olds. And you are not required to participate in anything. As long as you come home with a "ship on a stick", one of their "fantastic plastic prizes", that is all that matters. Disney is expensive. The Bahamas cruise I took on Carnival for under $300 each was more than twice that for the same week on Disney. Royal Caribbean does not offer as much "free" services. They charge a premium for specialty resaraunts like Johnny Rockets. Their staterooms are also smaller than Carnival. Source(s): sa Other Travel Tips Disney , There cruises arent just for little kids they have big water slides and surf pools and the ship is so amazing , we went on one last year and i would highly recommend it , the food is nice to and there is like a mall inside it lol , it has everything you want , Have Fun :D Well i have only been on one cruise, but it was the Disney cruise and it was amazing for people of all ages. There is an arcade, some pools and water slides, the waitors do magic at the tables, (or at least mine did), there are movie theaters, and much more. Plus, you get to go to Disney's own private island and snorkel, water ski, etc. You also go to Cozzumel Mexico, the bahamas, and the carribean. I would highly recommend it. norwegian cruise line disney seems too gimmicky carnival seems nice, but too fancy norwegian is the best because it has an awesome kids and teen program and its free food except for the fancier places and you dont have to dress for certain places after 5. u only have to wear long pants to the fancy places after 5 and a shirt. go on the mexican riviera or alaskan cruise. hope this helps! Hi, I'm a travel agent but I'm not soliciting your business. I wanted to let you know my opinion. You have a wide range of ages and you want to be sure everyone enjoys themselves. I would recommend Carnival, Royal Caribbean or Norweigan for your party. They all have fantastic kid's programs that are age specific. Disney may be a bit too childish for the older persons and the teens. Royal Caribbean would be my first choice. Depending on the ship, you can have rock climibing walls, ice rinks, movie theaters, great pools, interactive activities for all ages, plus quiet time for the adults. Good luck. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. I'll try to help. I would definitly agree that Royal Caribbean would be the perfect choice. I've been on numerous cruises with all of the lines mentioned and Royal Caribbean has the best ships with the most fun and unique equipment for the kids. Especially try for the Voyager class ships or the even newer Freedom class (currently theres only one in that class but soon to be another!) I've never liked Carnival because theres just way too many people in one place at the same time -- a feeling you'll seldom have on RCCL. As for Disney, sure they might seem good for the kids, but they don't have much planned for the adults (casino etc.) Hope this helps!!! |
