Cruise Holidays can arrange your cruise for you with are experienced Cruise travel agents. We can provide you with short or long cruises depending on your needs and we are independent we can get you the best cruise deals from various cruise operators. Below are the top 10 cruise destinations around the world:
1. Barbados Cruise
Barbados offers everything you need with unspoiled charm and sophistication: hot sun, warm sand, blue water that morphs into the horizon, friendly people, tropical breezes, as well as some of the most historic sites in Bridgetown; the island's port. Beaches are aplenty; Batts Rock, Paynes Bay and Folkestone Park in St. James, or Gibbs Beach and Mullins Bay in St. Peter.
2. Virgin Islands
The US Islands, in particular, offer a certain charm as they are less commercialized. This beautiful and pristine island got some notorious headlines after hurricanes devastated neighbouring islands and many flocked here instead.
3. French Riviera
The French Riviera benefits from a Mediterranean-type climate, characterised by exceptional sunshine almost 300 days a year and mild temperatures for most of the year.
4. Alaska
Alaska is a land of superlatives the biggest this, highest that and most of these. Whether it's a world-record 97-pound, 4-ounce king salmon or a massive 20,320-foot-tall mountain (Mount McKinley), Alaska is all about unique, amazing sights.
5. Australia / New Zealand
Up until recently, New Zealand had little to offer as a cruise destination. Thankfully, this has changed recently as cruise lines have added more exotic spots to their itineraries. And what is more exotic than Australia and New Zealand? Rapidly, this area has risen in popularity contests, as its breathtaking natural jewels are second to none with its glaciers and hidden beaches. Whether you prefer to party with the Kiwis or the Ozzies, you are guaranteed a great time.
6. Cayman Islands
Does the sound of soft white sand, underwater reefs and shipwrecks (no joke) sound tempting? While most financiers view the spot as a tax haven, we think of Cayman as a paradise. The Caymans offer tourists everything from trendy shops to spectacular Caribbean charm. The intangible: you don't even need a translator!
7. Norway
Perhaps we love Scandinavian countries because of their female offerings, but most seem to take a liking to these Northern countries because of their amazing geographical traits: fjords and sky-high rocky cliffs, all from a bird's eye view in the water.
8. Hong Kong
So what if most locals are fleeing Hong Kong -- forget politics and potential instability and join the thousands of cruise tourists that are headed towards the former British Crown Colony that was recently transferred to China. And so what if the city is no longer Asia's financial centre? Hong Kong still offers visitors some great amenities and an opportunity to understand the results of Capitalism blending with Communism.
9. Aruba
We like fjords as much as the next guy, but let's head down south. The word on the sea is that Aruba is the Caribbean's answer to Las Vegas with its posh casinos and luxurious resorts. Obviously, however, Aruba kicks Vegas' butt thanks to its beaches. Oh yeah, the people there like to party, which also helps, and they are fairly friendly and hospitable as well.
10. Panama Canal
Not just a must because the Canal is perhaps the world's most amazing engineering project, but this destination shows man's colossal fingerprints on nature as the canal links two oceans and separates continents. Pretty impressive despite the excruciatingly painful heat and humidity, but that is why you are on a cruise, so jump overboard for a cool-off...
