Princess Cruises is an American cruise line that is renowned for the quality of its service. Families are welcome on most Princess cruises, where there is plenty of entertainment for everyone. Choose the Pacific Princess or the Tahitian if you prefer relaxing in the company of like-minded adults.
As well as world cruises, Mediterranean cruises and Caribbean cruises, destinations include Asia, Alaska, the Mexican Riviera, the Panama Canal, Europe, South America, Australia and New Zealand, South Pacific Islands, Canada and New England.
Princess Cruises’ staterooms are spacious and comfortable, with complimentary 24-hour room service. Some have ocean views and balconies. For a more luxurious holiday, treat yourself to an upgrade to a sumptuous suite. These have a lounge area, elegant balconies, a luxurious bathroom, and a glass of champagne to welcome travellers on board.
Princess Cruises offer a range of activities including ice carving, cookery demonstrations, wine-tasting and computer skills. Guest speakers give talks on aspects of the destination ports, including theatre, art, history and politics. However, if you prefer, you can workout in the gym, be pampered in the spa, or simply relax with a drink by the pool.
Children aged between three and 17 can enjoy the onboard activities, including films, games, arts and crafts, karaoke and much more. There are also special children’s menus.
Entertainment on board the ships includes dancing, comedy, bars and lounges, a casino, Broadway-style shows and themed parties. Every Princess cruise ship also offers ‘movies under the stars’, which shows the latest Hollywood blockbusters and major sporting events on a huge 300 square foot screen on the deck.
Dining can be a five-star formal dinner, a casual meal in one of the speciality restaurants or informal restaurants, or room service in the privacy of your own cabin. Speciality restaurants include Italian, or a New Orleans style Café featuring Cajun and Creole dishes.
