Different travellers define Luxury in different ways, for many travellers any cruise is a luxurious getaway, but true luxury have several prominent differences compared to the mainstream ships. The ships are typically smaller carrying less than 1,000 passengers for a more intimate service, Cunard and Crystal do have larger ships that still offer the luxury package. Many are now all inclusive, such as gratuities, wines, shore excursions. Dining is on an open seating arrangement offering more flexibility for passengers with more extensive and flexible menus. Room service offering full menus rather than a limited selection. Visits to out of the way destinations that some larger ships can not get too. Sophisticated entertainment in the form of guest lecturers with a variety of dignified skills, including cooking, art, historym writing and so on.High-end bath products, designer chocolates on pillows at night, personalised stationary are all the norm on Luxury ships.
The pick of the Luxury Ships:
For some passengers luxury cruises may not be what they want out of a cruise holiday, they may feel it is too stiff and formal and prefer to really let your hair down, go Rock Climbing, have a go at the “Flo rider” or join in with daytime actitivies around the pool. NCL, Carnival Cruise Line or Royal Caribbean Cruises have all these facilities. If, however, your ideal cruise involves attentive service, nonstop gourmet cuisine, quiet chats over evening cocktails in a piano bar, elegant displays of eveningwear, and exotic ports of call not crowded by thousands of passengers at once, a luxury cruise may be your finest option for an unforgettable getaway.

Hello all,
Luxury cruise ships come in all shapes and sizes from masted sailing ships to yacht-style vessels, river boats and miniature versions of traditional mega-ships. For some travellers luxury means an exclusive ship experience limited to a small number of passengers, while others want to treat themselves to a variety of dining and activity options. Thanks a lot…..
