Thinking about a cruise for your honeymoon?


Choosing a cruise for this unique and romantic vacation could be a wonderful choice for several reasons. 

Here are a few:

1. Variety of Destinations: 

A cruise offers the opportunity to visit a variety of places in a single trip. 
You could be in a romantic city one day, on a tropical island the next, and yet another fascinating place on the day after that! You get to experience diverse cultures, cuisines, and attractions without the need for arranging multiple flights and accommodations.

2. All-inclusive Pricing: 

Most cruises include meals, accommodation, and on-board entertainment in their pricing. This can take off a lot of pressure and allow you to better manage your budget. Plus, you won't have to worry about small details and can focus more on enjoying your time together.

3. Activities and Entertainment: 

Cruise ships are renowned for their plethora of activities and entertainment options. These may include live shows, movies, gyms, spa facilities, swimming pools, and even rock-climbing walls or water parks on some ships. There are also classes and workshops, such as cooking or dance classes. So, regardless of your interests, you're likely to find something enjoyable to do.

4. Relaxation:

If relaxation is a priority, a cruise can be a perfect choice. Imagine lounging by the pool, indulging in a couples massage, or just watching the sea from the balcony of your room. You can do as much or as little as you like.

5. Romantic Dinners and Nights:

Dining on a cruise ship can be a highly romantic experience, with gourmet meals and beautiful ocean views. Some ships even offer private dining options. After dinner, there are usually several bars and lounges for late-night drinks, often with live music.

6. Hassle-Free Planning: 

With a cruise, you eliminate the need to plan every little detail of your honeymoon. The cruise line takes care of itinerary planning, meal provisions, and entertainment, leaving you free to simply enjoy your trip.


Check out these four very different itineraries that our honeymoon clients love...

Alaska on a Princess Cruise

A Princess Alaskan cruise can make for an incredibly unique and memorable honeymoon experience. Here's why:

Glacier Bay National Park: Most Princess Alaska cruises include a visit to Glacier Bay National Park, a highlight of any Alaskan cruise. It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and you'll have the chance to witness huge chunks of ice calving from glaciers into the ocean - a truly memorable experience!

Unique Excursions: The off-ship excursions available during an Alaskan cruise can be both exciting and romantic. You could go whale watching, dog sledding, or hiking in the Alaskan wilderness. 

Breathtaking Scenery: Alaska is known for its stunning landscapes, with beautiful fjords, glaciers, and wildlife. Seeing these sights from a cruise ship adds an element of awe and romance. You can watch the sunset over the mountains, take in the view of majestic whales breaching, or gaze at the Northern Lights in each other's arms.


Hawaii on Norwegian Cruise Line

Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) offers an incredible opportunity to explore Hawaii, and taking a cruise there for your honeymoon could be an unforgettable experience. Here’s why: 

Unparalleled Scenery: Hawaii is known for its breathtaking landscapes, from active volcanoes and lush rainforests to pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters. You'll be able to explore the islands during the day and return to the ship each evening to dine and relax, perhaps enjoying a Hawaiian sunset from the deck.

Island-Hopping: One of the primary benefits of a Hawaiian cruise is the ability to visit multiple islands without having to organize flights. NCL's Hawaii cruises typically stop at several islands, including Oahu, Maui, the Big Island, and Kauai, each with its own unique attractions, landscapes, and culture.

FreeStyle Cruising: NCL is known for its FreeStyle Cruising concept, which allows guests a lot of flexibility. There are no set dining times, a variety of restaurants to choose from, and a casual dress code. This laid-back approach can be especially appealing on a honeymoon when you may want to spend your days spontaneously.

Exciting Excursions: Depending on the specific cruise you choose, there may be a variety of shore excursions available. You could explore Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, visit the historic Pearl Harbor, enjoy a traditional Hawaiian luau, or go snorkeling in the clear Pacific waters.


Greece and Italy on a Celebrity Cruise

Imagine sipping a glass of wine while watching the sunset over the Mediterranean, or strolling through the narrow, winding streets of a Greek island village.

A Caribbean cruise on Royal Caribbean Cruise Line can make for a memorable and exciting honeymoon.
