Cruise the Caribbean and North America
If you love travelling to exciting new destinations, consider a cruise. Passengers are able to choose a number of interesting destinations on a continent of their choosing, which may also include sailing to neighbouring islands.
If you really want to go on a cruise holiday to the Bahamas, you’ll find most Caribbean routes will take you there. The capital Nassau and the surrounding countryside of New Providence Island give one access to beaches, bars and historical colonial houses and museums, places that are a must for the organised traveller.
The highlight of any discount cruise will be a trip to New York, the financial capital of the US and also the largest city in the Union. There is so much to see and do in New York, that it pays to have a basic plan of what you’d like to experience. Plenty of cruises will stop in New York but not all will stay for more than a day or so, which means it pays to plan your sightseeing routes to ensure you experience as much as possible in a short time. For just 8 dollars, a bus and subway pass will see you smoothly around the city, avoiding the chaos of the taxis and roads.
Culture lovers can head straight for the metropolitan museum of art (the Met) in central park. Not only do holidaymakers have the choice of spending the day in the city’s largest green space, they can also see one of the world’s great art collections. The galleries include collections from around the world, with vast collections from different historical periods.
A fascinating reality is that cruise ships have always played a major part in the history of New York and its people. More than 12 million immigrants arrived in America back in the 1800s, looking for a life of opportunity – which is what the Statue of Liberty represents. It’s free to ride the Staten Island ferry, which will not only give you a great look at the New York Skyline, but the statue itself.
