Is this your first time taking a Cruise?
It's important that your travel insurance provides the correct cover for your holiday!
As cruise holidays cover many different destinations, ensure that your policy covers you for all the countries you're visiting, even if you're only visiting for one day.
Cruise Critic voted Asia as the best destination for culture, from Japan and Hong Kong to Cambodia and Myanmar.
Here you'll find wonderful national parks, markets, and even cities with neon skyscrapers, and not forgetting the temples!
The European River Cruise was voted the best cruise destination for food & wine, from Bordeaux to Vienna. Here you can explore the local specialties and vineyards, cruising the Bordeaux wine region or a Douro River Cruise.
What do I pack?
When it comes to cruises, remember you'll be spending time on board as well as visiting ports, so it's important to take the right clothing for all events!
Check the average temperature in advance for each destination you're visiting and have a day bag for when you arrive as you may not get your checked-in luggage right away. This could double up as your hand luggage and will also be handy for when you're out and about exploring.
Don't forget some of these essentials when packing a day bag:
- Sun cream
- Swimsuit & towel
- Sunglasses & hat
- Camera
- Passport and other ID
- Travel guides
- Medication
- Portable chargers
Different cruise lines may have a particular dress code, be sure to check this out when packing as you may need to take formal as well as casual wear for dining.
