Cruises to Take in the New Year

With 2020 now upon us, many travelers are busy planning their schedules for the year. One of the best ways to see the world is through an all-inclusive cruise. Here are five cruise itineraries to consider for the new year ahead.

Visit the Panama Canal

As one of the most stunning engineering wonders in the world, the Panama Canal is a must-see destination. A cruise is an ideal way to experience the grandeur of the canal and its surrounding environs. Most Panama Canal cruise itineraries run either from Florida to the West Coast of the US or the opposite direction, stopping at a host of diverse ports of call along the way.

Cruising the Caribbean

It is no wonder that Caribbean cruises are the most popular choice among many knowledgeable travelers. With endless sunshine and warm weather, these cruises run all year long. While you are soaking up the easy island life, be sure to keep in mind that once you’re out to see, you’re subject to maritime law. Acquainting yourself with these laws will ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable trip.

Enjoying Sunny Hawaii

Because the Hawaiian Islands are so close together, it is easy to hit all of them during a short cruise. Why waste time island hopping by air and having to deal with airport security and changing lodging accommodations when you can explore all of the islands from the comfort of a cruise ship? Most cruise itineraries will originate in busy Oahu, giving you the chance to explore this island in greater detail before or after you set sail.

Relaxing on the Mediterranean Sea

If you are particularly adventurous, be sure to consider a cruise along the Mediterranean Sea and its vibrant ports of call. Depending on the ship and itinerary you choose, you will get the chance to see sights such as the amazing architecture of Barcelona, the ancient ruins of Pompeii and the idyllic islands of Greece.

Taking a Break in Alaska

Alaskan cruise enthusiasts delight in the gorgeous natural scenery that accompanies a cruise to this remote state. Because of weather constraints, Alaskan cruises only operate during the summer. While you will not enjoy the warm and sunny weather normally associated with a cruise, this itinerary affords the opportunity to have the adventure of a lifetime.

A cruise vacation is definitely an easy way to explore a host of varied sites and destinations with little hassle. You will not regret making a cruise part of your 2020 travel plans.
