Ablemoor 0 Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Hello As you can imagine I'm one happy bunny. Recently successfully applied for a promotion at work and couldn't be happier! Because of the bonus I've received I'm planning on surprising the wife with a nice holiday cruise this half term. I was wondering if anyone has some good suggestions of places they've been before and on what boat? I'm totally new to cruises (never had the money before) but want to give them a go and see how we get on, so was hoping someone here could give me some pointers of what to look out for, etc. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Countrygirl 237 Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Try speaking to Bolsover they are great at understanding your needs. it all depends on your budget If you have family with you or you want adult only ship. How many night you require if you want Sun or Scenery so many questions. Just remember half term will be busy. Our first cruise was for 7 nights to the Norway great experience and we have not stop cruising since. Have fun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oldworldtraveller 2225 Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Hi Ablemoor and welcome to the forum. It's not easy to recommend a cruise simply because we do not know what your expectations are, what standards you normally go for on holiday, large or small hotels etc. These are questions that anyone being asked to recommend a cruise will ask. One thing for sure, don't listen to anyone who does not know you and who has not asked the appropriate questions as they are likely to recommend their favourite cruise line which could turn out to be a disaster for you. Discuss it with Poppy at Bolsover who has an immense amount of experience at recommending cruises. I was at the World of Cruising Wave Awards this year when she won Best Travel Agent Award, something that is not awarded lightly. OWT DavidH 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Davybe 529 Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 Welcome to the forum Just got an offer from an agent, and at the moment Celebrity have some Baltic cruises on offer , The advice we got was book a 7 night cruise ,If you love it you can book another, and it's not to long if you hate it. Pick a decent agent is always a good thing ,and if you have friends who have cruised ask them.....Davybe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
