July 14th, 2009 at 03:09pm Under Cruise vacations
Princess Cruises offer their passengers the chance to escape to a world of luxury and discover exciting cultures and breathtaking sights on their top super liners. You can relax or live the high life according to your mood.
The brand ‘Princess Cruises’ became famous when it starred in the television series ‘Love Boat’. It is now part of Carnival PLC and one of the principal cruise lines in the world. Princess Cruises sail to more worldwide destinations than any other major cruise lines including Alaska, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, Canada and New England, the Caribbean, Europe, Hawaii, Tahiti and South Pacific, the Mexican Riviera, Panama Canal and luxury world cruises.
Princess cruises have one hundred and fifteen exclusive itineraries taking in over three hundred and fifty thrilling ports of call with the larger vessels carrying more than three thousand guests.
The Princess ships offer an innovative program known as Personal Choice Cruising, which is an unstructured, individually tailored style of cruising. Customers are given the opportunity to tailor their own cruise so it is more enjoyable for individual passengers. The idea of passengers being able to manage their own cruise began in the 1990’s when Princess introduced their innovative Sun class ships with multiple dining locations, affordable private balconies and flexible entertainment.
Pre-cruise preparations are taken care of by Princess Cruises with their own cruise personalizer. You just have to give them your immigration information, then boarding will be much faster and less trouble. You can also send in pre-cruise information to say what you would like from the cruise, including your favorite drink or any special requirements. You are also able to reserve spa treatments and shore excursions within four months of your departure date.
Daytime activities include lectures, digital photography workshops, cooking demonstrations and ceramic painting lessons. There are a few swimming pools, one of which has a current that you can swim against. Other sporting activities include golf, scuba and snorkeling lessons, jogging, basketball, volleyball, ping-pong and shuffleboard.
If you want to take it easy you can visit the ships extensive library, laze beside the pool or visit the Sanctuary for a relaxing spa or massage and be waited on by a Serenity Steward with light meals and signature drinks.
The Lotus Spa and Fitness programs offer all you need to both pamper and keep fit and the salon services offer hairdressing, manicure, pedicure and a barbers shop.
Other facilities include boutiques to buy duty free gifts, room service, bars and lounges, specialty restaurants and personal choice dining. There is a casino, art auctions, book club and an amazing choice of nightly entertainment with live theater, shows, dancing under the stars, parties, karaoke, comedy, TV and movies.
A complementary, “Passport to Value” allows substantial savings on shopping, photo services, and art and spa treatments. There are several packages to celebrate special occasions and you can even fill your room with freshly cut flowers.
Princess Cruises are great for all the family whatever their age, and youngsters age three to seventeen are catered to with a wide range of stimulating onboard activities to keep them happy throughout the day.
