tips How to have a best cruise vacation and avoid cruise pitfalls
If you ask people who had a cruise travel vacation before you will find two extreme answers. Some of them liked it very but very much and some others hate it. All this have to do with how you “set yourself up” before your cruise travel vacation.
There are many thing you can do to “set yourself up” before travel to have a great cruise travel vacation.
1. Travel with somebody who is disagreeable.
Disagreeable people are not bad people. They may even be your friends. Most of activities on board are made as couple or as a group.
2. Going for a cruise travel with a friend who won’t accompany you when you want to do something you will spend most of time doing things alone and this is not much fun.
3. Go on the cruise but refuse to participate. Don’t go outside of your room; watch TV inside instead. Don’t walk the deck, visit the shops. People with that kind of attitude almost never have a good cruise. If you’re like that by nature, you need to get an attitude adjustment before you board the ship. Cruise ships are places where there is entertainment all the time. And participating on them of course will make your cruise travel more enjoyable.
4. As I said, Cruise ships are places with full of activities and you have to pay for some of them. So before you choose your cruise travel vacation ans your travel agent about what is inclusive on your cruise travel package and what is not. Soft drinks or excursions on land are extra so you have to pay for them. I mean, you have to know that the cruise travel packages price is not the only price you have to pay.
5. Get a case of the temporary dumbs. Decide that since you’re on a cruise ship, you can sit in the sun for 12 hours without sunscreen and not get sunburned (what? Sunburn on a ship?) Drink excessively and stay out in the hot sun. Leave your wallet unattended in crowded areas. Cruises are generally very safe and fun, but you can’t let your common sense go on vacation.
6. Go unprepared. The cruise vacation can be very forgiving in this way. You can bring the wrong clothes and still squeak by. You can forget certain toiletry items and pick them up on-board. You can get help for a lot of things, but there are certain things that you must look after yourself. Bring your passport (and don’t pack it-you and your luggage get on the ship separately). Bring cash for tips. If you take prescription drugs or need to take over-the-counter medications or supplements regularly, bring enough of them to get you through the trip (and a couple more days “insurance”). Don’t forget things like eyeglasses, hearing aids, car keys, house keys, and important phone numbers.
Most of the time fanciest stateroom or beautiful destinations are not the things that make your cruise travel unforgotten. Traveling with like-minded people who are interested in taking advantages of what cruises offers are the ones who make your cruise travel wonderful and unforgotten.
One of the most important thing is bring cash for tips.Don’t forget it.
