 There’s a whole host of incredible destinations around the world, so why go on holiday to just one? On a cruise, you’ve got the choice of exploring a number of cultural cities, picturesque villages and bustling towns in one trip, which sounds great to us! There’s plenty of other pros to cruising too. Take a look below and we’re sure you’ll be swayed.
CRUISING OFFERS GREAT VALUE Almost everything’s included when you take a cruise: food, accommodation, daytime and evening entertainment, transportation between destinations…and often much more, making it far better value than other holiday styles. On some cruise lines, kids even sale for free or at discounted rates when sharing with two adults. And even better, sometimes drinks packages, shore excursions and even flights are thrown in too! ONLY UNPACK ONCE There’s no need to mess around with train schedules, ferries or lugging your suitcase around city streets when on a cruise. And every morning, you’ll wake up in a new destination, waiting to be explored. So, if you can’t decide where to go, why choose? CRUISE SHIPS ARE FAMILY FRIENDLY Cruises are fun are all ages – from kids’ clubs for the tots up to the teens, play areas and cool hangouts to the ultimate family restaurants everyone will be looked after. There’s even the opportunity for some romantic adult alone time on many cruise ships – as often, kids’ clubs run late into the night! THEY COME IN ALL SHAPES AND SIZES Whilst everyone thinks of cruise ships as huge vessels – it’s not always the case. Ships vary in size, from minimalist sailing ships to those carrying thousands of passengers and all that’s in-between. So, whether you prefer to get to know every onboard or would like something on a bigger scale – it’s all available – and we can help you choose! A RANGE OF ONBOARD ACTIVITIES Everything you can think of is available on a cruise. Whether it’s pampering yourself in the spa, hitting the basketball court, going to an educational lecture or dining at a fancy restaurant – you name it, it’ll be onboard. It’s often all about the evening entertainment too; from song and dance shows, comedy performances or a live music performance, you bet it’ll be onboard. FIND OUT MORE If you’re a cruise fanatic or you’re yet to take the plunge, give us a call today or email us – and we’ll tell you everything we know. We’re certain there will be a cruise to suit you.

The Land of Smiles has so much to offer, lush jungles, famed beaches, a rich cultural history and incredible food.
Thailand suits all budgets with basic guest houses starting at just £10 per night ranging to the most luxurious of retreats.
Getting out and about is easy with the unique experience of a Tuk Tuk. You’ll find these on nearly every street corner. Why not sample some street food for just a few pennies.
Top things to do in Thailand
With so many things to take your pick from, it’s hard to narrow down what exactly to do, so I’ve taken some top ideas from recent visitors to Thailand which I hope gives you a brief overview of this special country.
Enjoy a short stay in Bangkok
Yes you’ve guessed it - Bangkok is famous for its temples. The Grand Palace and Wat Prakaew have been home to Thai Kings and the Royal Court for over 150 years, walk through the sacred grounds and note the intricate architectural detail. No visit is to Bangkok is complete without the must-see stunning Wat Arun with its towering spires, probably the most photographed silhouette in Southeast Asia.
Don’t miss an early morning visit to the bustling floating markets, small wooden canoes heaped full with fresh vegetable, flowers and fruits.
Relax on a tropical Island
With many to choose from, take your pick of the many tropical islands Thailand has to offer. Perhaps one of the lesser known islands, such as Ko Chang. Located near the border with Cambodia, Ko Chang is the third largest island in Thailand. It is a mountainous island boasting several waterfalls, thriving coral reefs, rainforests and long white sandy beaches.
Kho Tao is also fast becoming a favourite destination for visitors looking for more than just beaches. The island offers scuba diving, rock climbing, and hiking. In fact, some 7000 new divers get certified on Koh Tao each year.
Exploring Chang Mai
Whether you are backpacking or a luxury connoisseur you should include Chang Mai on your itinerary. Famed for its verdant jungle and many temples the area offers visitors the opportunity to do so much – perhaps jungle trekking, a visit to the elephant nature park. A cruise along the Mekong River or even the chance to visit the long neck tribes and hill tribes and of course yet more markets.
