If you want a holiday that's hassle-free, virtually pre-paid, and that
lets you see lots of places while only needing to pack and unpack once,
then you should try a cruise. This best-selling book is the cruise
industry bible: it gives you all the information you need to choose the
right cruise for you. Meticulously updated every year by cruise expert
Douglas Ward, it is divided into two main parts: the first helps you
work out what you're looking for in a cruise holiday and how to find it;
the lively text and colour photographs describe every aspect of life on
board, including safety, the highs and lows of the cruise experience and
how to save money. The second part contains unbiased reviews and
fascinating detail of almost 300 ocean-going cruise vessels, and grades
them on service, food, entertainment and facilities, using an
internationally recognised ratings system.
