It's time to plan your next cruise... or maybe your first cruise? Either way, this Citro guide will ensure smooth sailing all the way.
Whether you’ve never been on a cruise before or you’re a seasoned sailor deciding where to go next, this guide is for you. We’ve tailor-made it for older travellers who still want to experience the world… just with all the added value, comfort and convenience only a cruise ship can offer.
A whopping 1.24 million Aussies set sail last year and that number is only set to grow by the end of 2024. So why might we want to join them?
Firstly, a cruise offers the most comfortable way to travel you could wish for. You’re basically heading off to a variety of destinations with your bed, shower and a giant swimming pool packed in your bag. I don’t know about you, but the older I get the more appealing that sounds…
Next, the value for money is exceptional. Once you pay for your cruise, you’ve also paid for your accommodation, meals, many drinks and most entertainment. It makes budgeting for a holiday a breeze.
Plus, you simply can’t beat the convenience of someone else sorting out all the logistics of travel for you. You unpack once but still get to experience a variety of destinations, amenities and activities – basically whatever floats your own boat.
To top it all off, there’s the ability to choose-your-own-adventure once you’re on board. You can be as social or hermit-like as you fancy; get off at many ports or none; see entertaining shows or simply read your book; dine in style each evening or get a tasty sandwich to go. It’s completely up to you how you cruise and the only pressing question you have to answer each day is “what do I feel like doing right now?”
Happy cruising from all of us at Citro.
