Holiday Cruises - Celebrate at Sea!

Take your entire family along on a festive holiday cruise this year for a relaxed and hassle-free vacation, where everything is done for you. Celebrate alongside your favorite people without having to cook, clean, entertain or host. These fun and affordable sailings provide an ideal venue for a multi-generational vacation or reunion with no fuss, no muss – just lots of fun.

Unwind and be pampered as you travel in comfort to beautiful destinations. Savor delicious cuisine at your choice of restaurants, get a fabulous massage at the spa, enjoy thrilling entertainment and retreat to spacious comfortable accommodations. Many suites even offer butler service.

After a hectic year, here is your chance to spend quality time with loved ones on beautifully adorned ships, with sparkling lights, decorated trees, garlands and more. Special dinners prepared by world-class chefs and special festivities allow you to enjoy the holidays in a delightful ambiance you will remember for years to come. Whether you are on a Thanksgiving, Christmas and/or New Year’s cruise, unforgettable experiences will be offered, such as snowfall in the atrium, sing-along with carolers, a magical tree-lighting ceremony and elegant formal balls on some ships. Gather the family for Hanukkah to light a menorah for each of the eight nights. Savor traditional and mouthwatering potato latkes (pancakes) and sing holiday songs.

Excitement is everywhere for children, especially when Santa arrives to deliver gifts. Parades, holiday-themed parties and food will also make this an unforgettable vacation experience for them.

What better way to see Europe than with friends and family on a Christmas market river cruise on such storied waterways as the Danube, Rhine and Seine rivers as you journey to charming destinations and visit world-famous markets. Enjoy special holiday dinners on beautifully decorated luxury river ships and enjoy such experiences as music recitals, cocktails parties and local celebrations.

Ring in the New Year with your group for the best New Year’s Eve party you have attended while enjoying a special dinner followed by a countdown, balloon drop and champagne toast. Some lines also feature formal New Year’s Balls. What a way to start the New Year! And no driving necessary!

Start a new family tradition as you celebrate the holidays at sea. Whether you are sailing in the tropical Caribbean or in Europe, you will want to repeat this exciting adventure every year! All the joy and festivities and none of the work await as you spend quality time with family and friends on a delightful cruise ship. This is what the holidays are all about.
