Cruising for us is one of the most relaxing vacations we can find. However, I’m always evaluating the range of cruise deals.  Personally, I receive a lot of cruise specials, ranging from press releases to notices from various agencies. Over the years, I’ve learned a good variety of cruise deals generally can be found using good agencies, as well as from companies in different countries.

When sailing to various parts of the world, I’ve discovered Thomson in the UK has its pulse on the rest of the world. This is one of numerous lines around the world that are not as well known in the U.S.

Thomson covers Scandinavia, the Baltic and UK, Caribbean, Western Mediterranean, Canary Islands and Morocco, as well as the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea. Check out their itineraries, as they are quite intriguing as well as the various deals.

Why look for cruise deals?  A good value on a wonderful ship is your assurance of an exceptional experience. It is wonderful to get shipboard credit, or category upgrades, when available. You also want to know that if you wait a week or two, the fare may be quite a bit less.  Unless budget does not matter, cruise deals do. Thomson features holiday deals, late deals, winter deals, couple deals, all inclusive holidays, luxury holidays, and the list goes on and on.

For us, we have enjoyed every cruise we’ve experienced, from the least expensive to luxury. Each was at a different time and with a different budget. We’ve sailed through rough waters and smooth and keep going back. There definitely have been some cruise lines we prefer over others. Many do not sail as often as we do and want to be sure they have the cruise line that will match their personality and budget. Many find one exceptional cruise line and stick with it.

I’ve used cruises for personal vacations, incentive programs, and conferences. But I’m always looking for a deal. So if you are looking to find a large range of cruise deals to choose from, check out Thomson for a range of cruise deals.
