 How to get the best out of cruising
A Guide from the Passenger Shipping Association
- Unless you're the hyperactive type, decide clearly which element of your holiday will be used for relaxation, and don't try to pack in too much.
- Remember to take the right mix of clothes; as a rule, cruise ships are a bit dressier than hotels, so pack some smart outfits for Captain's cocktails and formal dinners. If doing an Alaska land tour, remember to pack warm clothing, sturdy walking shoes and a small umbrella.
- Stock up on camera film before going ashore, especially if you're staying somewhere offbeat like China or Vietnam. And if you're on medication, remember to take a plentiful supply.
- Remember that though cruises include all meals, land stays do not, so budget a bit extra for the odd lunch and dinner not included in the price.
