The Mexican Riviera is an idyllic, sunny region consisting of 20 cities spanning almost 1,500 miles along Mexico's Pacific coast.

A popular cruise destination, it has many famous ports of call, offering a range of activities, varying landscapes, and stunning beaches, as well as a showcase for Mexico's rich culture and renowned food and drinks. 

The best time to cruise depends on a number of factors. Budget, crowds, weather, and local activities can all play a role in figuring out the ideal time to travel.

Are you thinking about going on a cruise but need just a little more convincing? You have come to the right place! Cruising is one of the best ways to not only vacation, but to also see and experience the world. Cruise ships are essentially floating cities with endless activities, food, and entertainment options.

People who think they might not like cruising often cite fear of seasickness and claustrophobia as two major reasons to avoid cruise ships altogether. However, these are just cruising myths.

I have always had a great love and appreciation for travel. Traveling introduces you to new things, experiences, people, and expands your world. From a young age I have known that I wanted to work in the travel industry, so when I was offered a position with Cruise Blog as a writer I was overjoyed that I would get to spend my days researching, writing, and thinking about traveling the world.

When you cruise, do you typically purchase travel insurance?

Travel insurance is one of those cruise topics that no one wants to think or talk about. It’s definitely not fun to imagine all the things that could go wrong on your highly-anticipated cruise. Vacation is meant to be relaxing and rejuvenating, after all!

Family cruising has become a popular getaway. Exciting destinations, tons of activities and entertainment, there is something for everyone at every age.

Cruise lines are offering plenty of promotions and family friendly discounts, making it an economical way to travel, especially with kids.

In this guide, we take a look at the best cruise lines for families, with the big names you would expect and a few that you may be surprised to see.

Here’s a look at the top cruise lines for families.

Today, July 29th 2022, Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) took delivery of its newest ship, the Norwegian Prima, from the renowned Fincantieri Shipyard in Marghera, Venice.

Norwegian Cruise Line has been a major cruise line within the industry for over 54 years, founded in 1966. Renowned for its freestyle cruising, Norwegian Cruise Line’s success is continuing to grow with the addition of the Prima Class, with the newest ship set to launch in April 2025.

A trip on the Disney Cruise Line can be a splurge for many families because the regular cruise fares are more than that of many other cruise lines. For an even bigger splurge, some families opt for concierge rooms on the Disney Cruise Line. These rooms come with upgraded amenities, special access, and other benefits.

Traveling to your cruise might require you to fly to the embarkation port, unless you’re lucky enough to live close to your cruise port and you can drive.

This summer, travel delays seem to be increasingly more common with horror stories of travelers getting stranded in the airport for hours with cancelations and delays.

Most of this is due to the 2022 summer travel chaos with unprecedented demand for travel, but these kinds of delays can happen at any time when you are flying.
