River Cruising vs Ocean Cruising

6/3/2016

0 Comments

 
Those of us who are fond of making bucket lists often have that item that says “Go on a cruise.” If you’re close to crossing that item from your list, then have you already decided which type of cruise floats your boat? Here are the things that you need to know before booking an ocean or a river cruise!

Benefits of booking a river cruise:
  1. Intimate. River cruise ships are a lot smaller than ocean cruise ships, and it can only accommodate a limited number of people. As a result, it’s not too crowded, and you won’t lose a lot of cruise time because it’s easy to disembark and go back on board. 
  2. More interesting routes. Expect that the itinerary has more stops than its ocean counterpart. In some cases, you will visit two ports in one day. This is actually one of the key attractions of going on a river cruise—the places you’ll visit are often rich in history and culture. During the olden times, sailing rivers was one of the main types of transportation. So, a lot of interesting places were built around the port and you can explore these through excursions that are included in the trip.
  3. Less chances of getting seasick. There aren’t any waves so this type of cruise is perfect for those who tend to get sick on a shaky boat. There is also that feeling of security because you have a view of the land at all times.
  4. It lets you experience the best of all-inclusive deals. Since river cruises can only take in a limited number of people, it’s easier for them to organize great all-inclusive deals. Land tours, meals, and other excursions are usually part of the deal. Also, if you’re the type who can’t last a day without going online, you’ll like these deals because most of them include free Wi-Fi!

Benefits of booking an ocean cruise:
  1. More choices in terms of destinations. Since ocean cruising has been the go-to option (at one point, it was the only option) by cruisers during the last few decades, you will find that there are a lot of options, whether you’re choosing between destinations, duration, or cruise lines.
  2. A wider array of amenities and facilities. Going on an ocean cruise is comparable to checking in at a luxury resort—you get to enjoy spacious cabins, a pool, and there is just a lot of extra room for your personal activities.
  3. There are a lot of great deals available. Again, due to the popularity of ocean cruises, you will find that you have quite a lot of options when it comes to pricing. There is more flexibility because there are different accommodations to choose from. Moreover, travel sites partner with these types of cruise ships, so expect to stumble upon various great deals. 
  4. More forms of entertainment are possible. Since most ocean cruise ships are big, you can bring some of your favorite forms of entertainment with you at sea such as wall-climbing, table tennis, or even some of the most iconic Broadway shows!
Did I make choosing easier for you? Whatever choice you make, I'm sure that you will enjoy the overall experience. After all, both options include all that you need for a fantastic luxury escape: great locations, great accommodation, and stellar service.
