Why a cruise, whats the advantage to a cruise over a land based tour?
The advantages of a cruise over a land based tour are numerous. Once aboard the ship, you only need to unpack and then repack once, at the beginning and end of the cruise, but you still get to visit a half dozen cities and towns in two countries. It is a package price, so your room, all meals, and entertainment are included in that one charge, which is in US dollars, so you know exactly how much your trip will cost you without having to deal with unpredictable exchange rates. You can further that by purchasing your air through Celebrity and getting transfers between the airport and the dock as part of the package. While on the ship you will have access to a variety of amenities such as a fitness center, spa, pool, casino and an internet caf. You can play hard in port, taking in a jetboat excursion or doing a bungee jump, then return to the ship for an excellent meal and then an evening massage before heading to the casino, all while the ship moves on to the next port.
