How To Avoid Being Surrounded By Old People
Cruises have a reputation, especially among people who have not
done one yet, of mostly being for old people. However, if you chose
the right cruise line you will be surrounded by people just like
you. The profile of people on board differs based on a combination
of the destination, time of year and the line itself. Selecting the
best match for you is essential. For example, you can cruise around
the Mediterranean and Caribbean on the following:
- Cunard or Holland America which offer a more formal and traditional cruising experience and is likely to have more older couples of 60 and above.
- Royal Caribbean which provides high-energy resort attractions like rock climbing, ice skating and water slides and will be more full of families and young couples.
- Seabourn, Crystal and Silversea which sail smaller ultra-luxury ships offering all-suites and butler service and attracts honeymoon couples, young and middle-aged professionals.
- MSC Cruises and Costa that provide a youthful and multi-lingual experience and attract families and groups of young travellers from around the world.
- Carnival Cruise Line which provides on-stop fun around the ship and attracts 20- and 30-somethings, dressed in shorts and t-shirts.
The best way to ensure you are surrounded by people like you is
to do your research and chose the right line that matches you!
