S

un, value, romance, pampering, fabulous food, fun, activities… they’re all part of the cruise experience.

Ask any LeGrow’s Travel counsellor, more and more people are choosing surf over turf these days.

“When my clients are trying to decide on a truly unforgettable vacation, I sometimes ask them, ‘Why bother choosing just one destination when you can have a half a dozen?” says Deborah O’ Connell, manager, LeGrow’s Travel, Village Mall, St. John’s. “Often that’s all it takes, and those folks are booking a cruise. They’re never disappointed.”

Once you’ve decided to take the plunge, there’s still lots to consider: What cruise line best suits you? What itinerary will provide the most memorable experience? And what about all those categories of staterooms? That’s where your LeGrow’s Travel counsellor comes in. We’ve been planning cruises since 1949. We’ll match you with the cruise that’s just right for you. Here are just two of our favourite itineraries to help get you dreaming.

Eastern Caribbean

Eastern Mediterranean

Who’s on board: First-timers, families, winter sun-seekers, active travellers What to expect: While the individual islands offer tons of variety in terms of culture and scenery, shore excursions tend to centre more around activities – sailing, snorkelling, bananaboating – than historic sites.

Who’s on board: Tested travellers, families, culture connoisseurs What to expect: Ancient history, cosmopolitan cities, superb cuisine and sun-drenched coastlines display all their awesomeness on a Mediterranean cruise, the ultimate sampler of the very best of Europe.

Exotic river cruise vacations are the hottest trend in travel

“R

iver cruising really is about the journey,” says Joanne Cross, LeGrow’s Travel counsellor, Terraceon-the-Square, St. John’s. “The onboard experience is one of personal service, luxurious comfort, complimentary fine local food and wine, and gorgeous upclose views. But unlike ocean cruising, in river cruising the ship is a means to experience the destination, rather than the destination itself.”

Here’s a little preview of what to expect along some of the world’s most wonderful waterways.

Danube Celebrated in song and prose, the legendary Danube flows through nine countries— from Germany’s Black Forest to the Black Sea—providing glimpses of ancient monasteries, Gothic cathedrals, quaint villages, bustling capital cities, and world-class vineyards.

Recommended itinerary: Encounter the quaint villages and mighty cities of the Danube on an eight-day Romantic Danube river cruise from Budapest to Nuremburg with Viking River Cruises.

Recommended itinerary:

Mekong River

One of Asia’s least developed rivers, the Mekong teams with life, boasting a biodiversity second only to the Amazon. Unlike river cruises that sail past European capitals, the route through Vietnam and Cambodia offers stunning contrasts of ancient landscapes, bustling towns and rural river villages.

Experience a 15-day cruisetour, from Vietnam’s lively cities to the tranquility of Cambodia and discover two countries, two cultures and two ways of life linked by Indonesia’s most important river.
