Before booking a Luxury Cruise or any cruise for that matter, ask yourself, with whole world out there to visit, where in it would I like to go?Luxury Cruises are no longer for the rich and famous or the upper crust for that matter.
Nowadaysthey are relatively affordable to anyone who wishes to go.
Once you have chosen a destination, now you mustdecide on your budget.
Luxury cruise can be a bit more expensive than a casual fun cruise, so decide what would you be willing to give up because that 7 to 10 day cruise make have to be a 3 or 4 day instead.
On a luxury cruise you get what you pay for so accommodations should also be a factor.
For example an outside Suite with Balcony will surely be more expensive as will an Outside Stateroom or an Outside Cabin.
If these factors are not as important then an Inside Cabin orInside Stateroom will be just as comfortable on a luxury cruise.
Another thing to consider is how many Ports of Call will you be making ?Will you be planning on going ashore at every one ?There are also the cost of shore excursions, shopping, lunch or dinner while in port if you are there long enough to choose one or all of these options.
Believe me there are ways to travel instyle and luxurywithout goingbroke,and trust meyou will not be the only one luxury cruising on a budget.
Also figure in your on board expenses such as shore excursions, spa visits and the casino.
Exactly how much of what are you willing to give up ?Once these decisions have been made you are now ready to start looking and booking.
If you are using a Travel Agency/Agent make sure they are reputable.
Check with several cruise lines to see what they have to offer and by all means check on line for some really good deals.
Look for ports of departure that are closer to you, sometimes they can be farther away and that makes airfare a little more expensive.
Plan your trip of a lifetime carefully and wisely because that dream cruise should be more than a dream it should and can become a reality.
Luxury cruises will give you what you paid for, good food, good service, good company and a good time.
