Vacation on cruise ships is one of the options for an unforgettable vacation. If you love the sea, then traveling on a huge ship is a great option for a summer adventure with family.
Each cruise company provides for the organization of a comfortable stay with children: with babies professional animators are engaged, children are involved in entertaining games, so you can not be afraid that your the child will always "sit" in the gadget.
Baby's age. There is no minimum age to travel on a cruise ship, but we recommend that you do not travel with children under one year old. Chances are good that "Little tail" will not let mom go a step, but from local entertainment it will not get pleasure yet.
What to take with you.You will spend most of the time inside the ship, where it is pretty cool (18-22 degrees). So don't limit yourself to swimsuits and light tops. But evening dresses must be taken. Several times during the cruise, you will be asked to come to dinner in smart clothes. Food, hairdryer, bathrobes, towels are all available. We recommend that you think over in advance everything that you need to take for the child and make a list (diapers or a pot, a favorite toy, a first aid kit, sunscreen, a panama hat or a cap).
Choosing a cabin. The price of the tour is influenced by the category of the cabin. There are several types of them: without a window, with a window, with a balcony and suites (apartments). If you are planning a vacation with a child, it is better to give preference to the option where the window will definitely be.
What to do in port. On most tours, you can visit several countries in a few days. As a rule, the ship arrives at the port at 8:00, and back at 15.00-16.00. It would seem that there is a lot of time! Feel free to take 2-3 hours. This is the time for disembarkation and embarkation, and the road from the port to the city / beach. Think in advance what you want to see. It is better to buy excursions not on the ship, but on arrival, it will be cheaper.
If there is an emergency. Most cruise lines allow in an emergency to disembark at the port to board the plane. There is also insurance - for a separate percentage, if you left the liner, you will be refunded the rest of the cost of the trip.
How to deal with seasickness. To minimize the likelihood of "seasickness" onset, choose a cabin on the upper deck of the middle part of the ship. These cabins also offer the best views - in addition to the gentle sailing experience. In advance, ask your pediatrician to prescribe a motion sickness medication that is appropriate for your baby's age. Also, take a responsible approach to food on board - exclude fatty, heavy food, give preference to salads, soups, sour juices and mineral water.
Recall that earlier we wrote about how the color of the car affects the character.
