Planning your first cruise – dream a little

Are you thinking of taking a cruise for the first time?  Don’t know where you should go on your first cruise? Think about where you have traveled before, how much you spent on your last 2-3 vacations (don’t include those visits to Aunt Millie though). This will give you a starting point.

Then dream a bit! This will help determine the best place for you to take your first cruise.

Are you dreaming of warm, sunny sparkling white beaches? This could be you imaging yourself in Hawaii, the Caribbean or in the Mexican Rivera. 

Historical sightseeing? Do you want to see the New England States and places of interest from the Revolutionary War or how about a river cruise on a steamboat cruising to Civil War sites while passing historical Antebellum mansions. Then there is the rich history of our ancestors from Europe touring Gothic cathedrals, medieval palaces and exploring ruins while walking down cobbled streets. 

A romantic getaway? Run away and pamper yourself on a cruise to no where or a coastal cruise during a long weekend.

Never taken 7-10 days away from the office for vacation? Then plan on your first cruise to be a 3-5 day cruise. You can still visit the places you dream of,  just for a shorter time period. If you fall in love with cruising (as most people do), then plan a longer cruise vacation next time. Many people worry about being stuck on a cruise ship if they don’t like it. There are many 3-5 day options from cruise ports all over the United States.   

So go ahead and dream and then plan on making your dream cruise vacation come true.
