Finding a cruise for everyone
I love cruising and have sailed with Disney, Princess and P&O. I am also a member of CLIA, giving me up to date insights into the cruising industry (and first class training). However there is a wide variety of cruise lines out there and I was keen to expand my knowledge of them. So I set off at 6:30am and headed down to London: destination ‘The Sunborn Yacht Hotel’ near the ExCel. Yes, a hotel on a yacht – what a perfect place to meet up with some cruise lines and learn about what they have to offer!
We had presentations from 8 cruise lines who sail from the UK and around the world. From luxury cruise lines with 180 day sailings around the world, to expedition cruise lines sailing to the Antarctic or the Galapagos Islands. From adult only cruise ships, to family orientated ones. It is events like this that really help me in my business and ultimately help me to help you.
Part of what I do is matching you to the perfect holiday, and cruises are no exception. Some people have a pre-conceived view of who is the average cruiser. The truth is that there IS no average cruiser, and yesterday certainly highlighted that to me. If you want to try cruising then there is a cruise line for you. This is why people come to me for help as I can advise them in a way that the internet can’t. I don’t want to send you on a holiday that isn’t right for you, just to get a sale.
These events also put me in contact with the regional managers for our suppliers. This gives me a direct contact with the cruise line – and you never know when that might help me give you the best experience possible.
So who are you?
A luxury seeker?
A foodie?
An intrepid adventurer?
A party loving traveller?
A family focused parent?
A regular holiday maker tired of the same old destinations?
Someone looking for their bucket list adventure?
Whoever you are, I can recommend a cruise line for you.
