Cruising is a truly memorable way to travel, a captivating voyage from one destination to the next in comfort and style. Cruise almost anywhere on the planet, from picturesque Alaska to the stunning South Pacific islands, the majestic rivers of Europe and everywhere in between. Unpack once and wake up in a new place every day! Onboard you’ll love the all-day dining, live entertainment and endless choice of activities all included in the cruise price. Whether you’re looking for a party atmosphere, a fun family adventure or a romantic getaway, our helloworld cruise experts will help you find the perfect cruise to suit your individual style and budget. Plus we’ll give you lots of handy cruising tips so you’ll be in the know before you go.

Choosing the right shipChoosing the ship that is right for you and your family is so important to ensure you get the holiday of your dreams so to ensure you get a keeper, here are five things to consider:

Onboard activitiesHow busy do you want to be on a sea day? Do you like to splash in a water park, zoom down a waterslide or work out in the gym? Or perhaps high tea and spending the day in a secluded cabana with a good book is more you.

Dining Some cruise lines specialise in cuisine, so if you’re a foodie then this will be a factor. Look for specialty restaurants where you can enjoy a different style of cuisine every night. Some have restaurants by celebrity chefs like Jamie Oliver and Curtis Stone while others offer cooking master classes!

Size mattersThey say size isn’t everything, but when it comes to choosing the right ship, it’s very important! The bigger the ship the more there is to do and the more people there are to do it with. The smaller the ship the more intimate the experience with higher attention to detail and personal service.

Who’s going?Are the kids going? How old are they? Will they be excited about water slides, flow riders (surf simulator) and kids clubs? Are you looking for a ship that has a nightclub, a karaoke bar, skating rink, bowling alley or a adults only comedy club? Yes you can get all of these and more!

Destination How far do you and your budget want to go? The most popular cruises for Kiwis are around the Pacific Islands, followed by Europe (who can resist a Greek Island or two), Australia and Alaska (oh those glaciers). Asia though is not to be ruled out and is emerging as a very popular hot spot to visit by ship (think Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand). This is where our cruise specialist’s knowledge is gold as they can walk you through all the options for each destination and help you find the perfect match.

HELLOWORLD TIPS Dining Most cruise lines offer multiple dining options onboard and while many are included there are often surcharges on specialty restaurants like Jamie’s (as in Jamie Oliver) amongst others. These specialty dining restaurants offer a unique dining experience and are well worth the small surcharge from US$5 (Celebrity's The Porch) or US$10 (Holland America's Canaletto) to $75 (Disney's Remy). Most fall into the US$20 to $45 range per person.

Our tip: Pre-purchase dining packages across multiple restaurants before you leave home. This will save you money and your taste buds will thank you for it. Packages range in price but a good guide is from US$69 to $119 per person for three meals or US$149 to $159 per person for five meals. (Package prices vary by ship & cruise line)

Shore excursionsSightseeing ashore is part of the attraction of a cruise holiday...seeing multiple destinations in one holiday where you get a slice of life in every place you visit.

Our tip: Splash out on one or two extravagant excursions during the cruise and do something which will enhance your holiday and leave wonderful memories. A flightseeing tour over the Glaciers in Alaska, a private tour through the Hermitage in St Petersburg, feeding stingrays by hand in the Cayman Islands. The list is endless and your helloworld cruise specialist is here to help you.

Extra tip: Book your shore excursions before you leave home as many sell out before you even board the ship.

Staying connected Cruise lines have come a long way in the WiFi space and almost all of them now offer great WiFi packages. Some cruise lines even offer free WiFi part or all of the day.

Our tip: Consider your WiFi needs when investigating which cruise you want to do.

BinocularsMake sure you pack a small pair as these are a great idea wherever you are cruising. Spot the whales breaching in Alaska, see the far off Acropolis, and watch the port disappear behind you as you set sail at the end of the day.

A day pack/bag: Your luggage is put outside your cabin the night before you arrive at your final destination so take a small bag or day pack that you can also use on shore excursions for your nightwear and toiletries to avoid leaving the ship in pyjamas.

ROMANCING AT SEAWhether it’s an anniversary, a honeymoon or just a romantic holiday, the romance of cruising has never been more charming, as more and more couples are finding out. Imagine unpacking only once into a room with a balcony that provides changing views every day and new places to dine each night. Imagine a holiday that allows you to spend time connecting with each other after a day spent exploring a different city, a remote village or just lazing on a beach.

Cruising is one of the most romantic breaks a couple can have without the hassle of navigating to new locations each day – that’s what the captain is for.

Some ships also cater to specific tastes and interests. If you are foodies there are itineraries designed to delight your tastebuds both onboard and off. If you are fascinated by history then destinations in Europe or Asia will provide memories (and photos) for a lifetime. If you love beaches and sunshine, a cruise around the Pacific, Caribbean or Hawaiian islands sipping on a cocktail with an umbrella in it will probably tick all the boxes.

There are so many different experiences and so many ships to choose from, so here are a few things to consider for your couples’ getaway before you book:

If it’s relaxation you want, then a small ship could be ideal. You’ll have a pool and a gym, one or two bars and a library/reading room. There’ll be smaller decks with sun loungers for catching up on some reading, or if you have a cabin with a balcony you can just while away your day at sea there. You might also like an itinerary that has more sea days rather than a new port daily to make the most of those big sea and blue sky days.

But if more entertainment is what you’re looking for, then the larger ships will appeal more. You’ll find top quality shows performed nightly or if the big theatre is not your style, there will be a cosy bar playing jazz or blues to tap along to. Entertainment for many cruise lines has become their signature difference, spending millions in set design and collaboration with renowned producers and choreographers.

There will certainly be several delicious places to dine onboard which rival those on land. Some ships have up to 18 different venues and have restaurants by celebrity chefs: Jamie Oliver’s restaurant Jamie’s aboard select Royal Caribbean ships, Curtis Stone’s SHARE aboard selected Princess ships and award winning French master chef himself, Jacques Pépin oversees the menus across the Oceania Cruises fleet of ships.

You’ll find a couple of pools and depending on which ship you choose, an ‘adults only’ retreat area with romantic day beds and cabanas where children are not permitted. Larger ships offer lots of opportunities to keep busy on things like putting practice or learning to surf or SCUBA dive, others offer cooking classes, wine tastings, cocktail making, and lectures for learning at various times throughout the day. You’ll also have a casino for a flutter and even duty-free shopping!

If you love getting out and about and exploring new places, then an itinerary that has several port days will suit you and will completely erase any thoughts of boredom. Imagine starting in Barcelona and when you wake in the morning you are in Cannes or Florence or Rome. At each destination you can also choose to be as busy or as quiet as you like. If you want to see as much as possible then booking a VIP tour onboard is an excellent way to see it all without standing in lines at the Vatican or the Colosseum, for example.

But sometimes the best moments are just walking hand in hand along a cobbled street browsing into tiny artist studios and boutiques then sharing a pizza in a taverna with a glass of chianti and watching the locals go about their day.

CRUISING FOR FAMILIESFamily holidays create a lifetime of memories, but you don’t want the palaver of organising it to create a lifetime of stress!This is why cruise holidays are the fastest growing sector in the travel industry as more of us discover the ease of unpacking only once but having a new place to explore each day. A cruise is one of the only holidays a family can have that has something for everyone.

These days family travel can mean three generations, so needs are changing when it comes to accommodation, dining and activities to please everyone from nana and grandad down to the teenager or toddler.

What is there to do onboard?

The cruise industry has come a long way and new ships are being christened every year that offer even more bells and whistles. Some have bowling alleys, wave pools and water slides, others have adventure parks featuring bumper cars, climbing walls and laser strike and that’s before you get to what the kids clubs offer.

Newer ships are now specifically designed with families in mind and that makes it even easier for your tweens and teens who are catered for as separate age groups who are free to come and go as they like. But it’s not all about fun and games and squeals of delight, many cruise lines are well aware of the need for quiet adult spaces and you’ll find larger ships have adults’ only areas with quiet pools, a spa (often with a hair salon) and a library where a jigsaw is always underway. You might also find a whiskey or champagne bar and specialty restaurants.

What will we eat on our cruise?

Dining options run the gamut from the crowd pleasing buffet, which is sure to be a hit with even the fussiest eater, to specialty restaurants like Italian, Indian or French and burger or pizza joints. In fact you might find it hard to wrangle the whole family together at meal time as the choices are vast.

What about cabins?

Large family rooms that can sleep up to six are available on some of the newer megaships, but adjoining rooms or even taking an extra interior cabin across the hall can be an easy solution – and one that is a cost-saving. If your children are young, take a baby monitor and you will hear them call you in the night just like you would at home.

Where should we go?

When choosing the right cruise for your family, you’ll also want to think about the destinations and activities you can do on shore. If you are a large family you might even decide to do different things and just meet up at the end of the day for a big debrief over dinner.

Cruising in the Pacific means you can take your kids to cultural shows, watch some beautiful island dancing, take in a kava ceremony (for your over 18s!) or visit a local school or project where you can volunteer as a family and be put to work for a few hours.

Another family favourite is cruising in Alaska. Fly to Vancouver or Seattle and head off to see glaciers as high as a 30-story building and whales playing all around as you slowly sail by. There is so much to see on an Alaskan cruise and many of the cities are inaccessible by land, so are unique experiences every day. Book a shore excursion to go dog sledding or take a float plane to a salmon hatchery where you’ll watch black bears walk out of the forest to catch their sashimi in the river as bald eagles circle overhead.

A cruise is the best way to create your family memories without the hassle.

THE NORWEGIAN CRUISE LINE DIFFERENCE

OUR TIP

Calling all sun and fun seekers! Nothing says 'tropical holiday' like island hopping from one tropical Island to the next, and when it comes to the Pacific, P&O do it best! There's the Frenchy-chic vibe of Noumea, the ancient culture of Lifou, oh and the beaches...we'd never forget the

beaches! On a family holiday, it’s important the kids have something to do and it’s even better if the whole family can join in the fun. Mum and Dad can relax while kids and teens have their own adventures. Complimentary kids and teens programmes are divided into age-relevant clubs.

Kids will love their ‘me’ time, but we pull out all the stops to remind you how enjoyable cruising can be for the entire family. And for a special ‘us’ time adult treat, book yourself into SALT for a romantic dinner for two!

WAKING UP IN THE HEART OF EUROPE A river cruise in Europe features on many people’s bucket lists for several well-deserved reasons. Imagine gliding gently along the watery highways of Europe, past castles and villages, under bridges and through locks enjoying an intimate, small ship experience.

The river is calm and the scenery ever changing. Castles appear along the cliffs, a vineyard around the curve in the river and a village dating from the 10 century materialises on the horizon. You almost wish your head could spin 360 degrees to take in in the picturesque sights at every turn.

The attention to detail onboard and the level of service from the moment you step into your stateroom with its enviable windows or balcony for those balmy evenings when you can sleep with the door open to listen to the gentle lapping of the water, makes a river cruise an ideal holiday for just enough relaxation mixed with daily sojourns in exciting European cities.

With less than 200 guests, the staff are quick to learn how you have your coffee or what your favourite French wine is. Join your fellow travellers in the lounge for afternoon tea or to sip champagne as you float along. At night you might

take to the dance floor for a gentle spin, or spend an hour learning something fascinating about the local history or culture at one of the lectures – before they bring out the wine tasting.

Some river vessels are richly decorated in sumptuous fabrics and oversized furniture, others are minimalist, sleek and modern. All are elegant, relaxed and offer a uniquely personalised experience.

Head up to the sun deck above and recline on a lounger or join friends at tables and chairs under shade sails for a drink to admire the views and take photos of both sides of the river. This is the spot to be for drinking in the scenery. Choosing a ship with a large sun deck is a plus on scenic cruising days, so bear that in mind when you’re looking to book.

Another reason river cruising is so popular are the sightseeing tours that are often included in the price. Wander along with a guide using whispering earpieces which can be heard within a 200m radius so you can take photos or sneakily pop into a shop while still listening to what is being said.

Walking tours typically last a couple of hours with plenty of time to explore on your own. You might also have bicycles on your ship which are a fun way to meander off at your leisure, or put in a full workout cycling down the edge of the Danube like a local.

Disembarking any time is another bonus for river cruising as you’ll be in one place for a whole day, so getting out for a morning run or roaming through an early rising city and people-watching is easy. Often you will get to enjoy the luxury of an overnight stay in port like Passau or Budapest and there is nothing quite like seeing these gorgeous places lit up at night and you are in the heart of it all.

It’s a gentle pace and a relaxing feel. River cruising, by its very nature, makes little impact on the places you visit. You’ll quietly moor in a tiny town like Melk or Durnstein, go out on a tour ashore, then stroll around doing your own thing, and off you’ll glide again at the end of the day. No thousands of people disgorging into a town, no queues and discreet security. It’s relaxing and perfect for unwinding with your every need taken care of to the highest degree.

Often all inclusive with sightseeing, beverages and gratuities included, river cruising in Europe is one of the most relaxing and value for money holidays around.

Whether you're exploring the Rhine or the Danube, the Rhône, Seine, Maas or Moselle... the magic of their award-winning river cruises lies in more than just the riverboat you're aboard or the landmarks you'll visit. It's in the intimate atmosphere and personalised service you'll enjoy aboard the custom-designed

The places you'll discover off the beaten path, along with the must-see sights you just have to experience. The uncommon access to local culture and exclusive destination experiences

you just can't get on your own. The connections you'll make with the people you'll meet. The traditions and little moments they'll share with you.

OCEANS OF LUXURYStep onboard your luxury cruise ship, accept the glass of bubbles that will likely be offered and drink in your first impression.There are no lines for food, no crowds in the pool, no deck chairs draped in towels by families saving spaces for each other.

Luxury cruising is a very different kind of travel experience. It is elegance and panache from the moment you step into the lobby, as you walk past priceless art on the walls and into your suite where you’ll be greeted by name before you’ve even unpacked.

You will be forgiven for turning in circles in your five-star room taking in the king-sized bed, the comfy chairs and the balcony with your own furniture. Your suite will be spacious with features like an iPod dock and maybe a coffee maker, your bathroom might have a bathtub as well as a shower and the amenities are just as likely to be Bulgari. Some suites have walk-in closets and storage is never a problem. You will have a butler assigned to you who will be serving only a couple of rooms and be ready

to bring a pillow or take your ironing and return it before dinner before you even think of it.

Boutique ships provide unique itineraries into smaller ports and offer a higher level of service with a greater staff to passenger ratio than the larger ships can. Exceptional dining experiences are another important reason luxury cruising is so popular. The food will be locally sourced at each location and presented like art on your plate. But if you want to have a quiet dinner in your suite, that is no problem, your butler will bring it in.

Smaller ships like Ponant pride themselves on their exotic itineraries like a Greek Antiquities cruise from Istanbul to Nice via the narrow Corinth Canal where you are towed through this six kilometre feat of engineering. You’ll stop at ports where excursions include historic sites like the Temple of Apollo or Olympia where the marble starting line for the runners at the very first Olympic Games are still in excellent condition and ready for you to pose for your next Facebook photo.

Other luxury cruise ships like Seabourn, Regent Seven Seas and Oceania are bigger (but not too big) with more onboard options like specialty restaurants and cosy bars. Expect to see live entertainment each night that might include a jazz singer and even the occasional ship’s doctor has been known to play the grand piano of an evening!

Some ships provide formal, glamorous experiences where women in long gowns are not out of place at dinner and you’ll need to bring or rent a jacket for men. But this is less the norm these days as understated style and less stuffiness where sundresses are perfectly acceptable for dinner becomes more popular for the luxury traveller.Yachts like Windstar offer the chance to dine under large white sails and while the suites aren’t as spacious, the intimacy makes up for it as you sail around the likes of the Tahitian islands enjoying a fine dining yet casual experience.

The people you’ll meet on luxury cruises are travellers. You’ll hit it off so well, you’ll probably exchange email address and keep in touch long after your voyage is over. They have a love of travel and it’s more than likely they will have visited New Zealand and have much to say about our own beautiful country!

But beware, once you’ve experienced a luxury cruise there is no turning back.

Cuisine, comfort, service and outstanding value are the pillars that define Oceania Cruises®, offering choice for travellers seeking a truly refined and casually elegant travel experience. Each day offers the rewarding opportunity to experience the history, culture and cuisine of a new destination. Savour exquisite cuisine

that not only is renowned as the finest at sea, but also rivals the best restaurants ashore. Inspired by Master Chef Jacques Pépin, these culinary delights have always been a hallmark that distinguishes Oceania Cruises® from any other. Considering the uncompromising quality, perhaps the most remarkable aspect of an

Oceania Cruises voyage is its incredible value. Lavish complimentary amenities abound and there are never supplemental charges in any of the onboard restaurants. Every moment spent on an Oceania Cruises voyage confirms their commitment to presenting you the very best your world has to offer - your way.

Discover a different kind of cruising. Breath taking ships that radiate sleek Scandinavian style and contemporary, uncluttered calm. Viking makes the journey as thrilling as the destination. Every little detail is thoughtfully designed and beautifully crafted. And because they want you to feel completely

at home, you won’t have to pay extra for those comforts like breakfast in bed, WiFi and your own spacious, private veranda. Their 930 guest ships boast more than their share of wow factors, including the first glass-walled Infinity Pool at sea, the spectacular, three-tiered atrium, and the Wintergarden, with its

exquisitely sculpted canopy of blonde wood. With Viking, sail into the heart of your destination, so you can explore in depth. The size of their vessels gives greater manoeuvrability, allowing them to dock where mega-liners cannot, giving you more access to your destination and more time to explore.
