Cruise Food

This decadent piece of work ladies and gentleman is a Cappuccino pie. When you’re on your cruise ship there will be many places to get food. An assortment of options and types to choose from. There is practically a 24 hour buffet that can be found on both sides of the boat with breakfast foods in the morning and lunch and dinner foods in the evening. Also an actual 24 hour room service where you can order anything you want on a list that they provide you. You can choose between formal breakfast and dinners or the buffet. These are usually at a set time and you can choose whether you would like an early or late dinner. For these times the dress code for dinner is formal. When you get there you will be taken to a table and given a menu for a three course meal that you can choose from. If you were feeling especially ravished you could indeed order two entrees at once to either share or keep to yourself. Along with the buffet,breakfast,dinner, and room service there are also restaurant style places along the boat that you can dine in as well. Keep in mind though that everything i’ve said beforehand is completely free and is included no matter what package you choose but if you would rather go to these places instead they will charge your account. Also on a quick note the alcohol on the boat unfortunately is not free and you will also be charged on the amount of drinks you get. Although there is a store in the boats “lobby” area that has bottles of liquor for sale that you can purchase. Some boats allow you to have the bottles delivered to your room while others wait till after the cruise is over to give you them. My advice would be to try all these styles of food options through out the week and not eat too much because you might get over full and not be able to try all the things you had you eye on.

Happy Eatings Adventurers!

There are a few cruise ships that you can choose from if you live in the United States. My personal preference is Carnival Cruises. I think their atmosphere and people are more comforting and personal as opposed to some other cruises i have been on. I dont want to talk badly about any of the cruise ships because their was nothing bad about their service or what they had to offer but i felt carnival was closer in their goal of making their guests feel right at home. I have attached the website in a link and i will be walking you step by step through the process of how to find what type of package you want. A package usually means the amount of days and the area in which you will be staying at on the boat. You can choose between interior (the inside of the boat facing other doors with no window), the exterior (facing the sea with a window view, Balcony (which means you will have a sliding door balcony and about two chairs and a small table) or the more expensive one which is the suite. The amount of days and what room you will be in determine how expensive your room is going to be. When you are on the carnival website you will click the learn tab on the upper left hand corner right under the carnival title. After that you will be brought to a different window where the website will ask you what state you are living in (also if you are out of the U.S it will also give you the option to choose that) after you have made your choice the website will prompt you with a question of if you have children. After you have said yes or no, you will click on the amount of days and then it will take you a page with the available ports that you could be on along with prices for all four room options. They also can give you hotel pricing but i personally think it is easier to find a hotel with out those packages because i believe you can find it for cheaper. I hope this helps fellow adventurers! 

steady waters and blue skies

Hello all,

welcome to my very first blog EVER! I’m really excited to take you on this trip with me. First off let me tell you what my little blog here is about, I’m aiming this blog toward people who have thought about going on a cruise for a vacation but have ended up lost in their endeavors. I’ll show you a few different cruise lines and give you the best prices I can find. I’ll also tell you important information about what your waiters and turn down service will be doing for you on your stay and how important it is to tip them properly. Cruise ships are a great way to relax and travel without the delays of airlines or the tight fitting spaces of trains and buses. There are many things to do on and off the boat that will keep you busy and relaxed. I hope you enjoy this as much as I know I will.

until next week!
