All About Cruising: Why cruise? |

Cruise
Tip Of The Week
Are some
ships better than others for children?
While most cruise lines offer supervised
activities for children—such as
swimming, sports, movies, and games—some
ships don't, and some ships have better
programs than others. In addition, some
programs have minimum age requirements
(generally age 2 or 3). To find the best
children’s programs, we suggest you read
the the cruise ship’s
review. Though you may initially
think of Disney Cruise Line® when
shopping for a family-friendly cruise
(and it certainly is family friendly),
many other ships offer children's
programs (and adult activities) that may
be just as appealing.
