Ahoy, future cruisers!
The sea is calling, and there’s no better way to answer than by setting sail on the cruise of a lifetime. Whether you’re dreaming of turquoise Caribbean waters, Alaska’s majestic glaciers, or the sun-soaked coasts of the Mediterranean, the challenge isn’t whether to go — it’s where and how to make it perfect.
At America’s Best Cruises, we’ve helped thousands of travelers find the ship, itinerary, and vibe that fit their dreams — from family groups to girlfriend getaways, couples’ retreats, and once-in-a-lifetime adventures. So grab your coffee (or cocktail) and let’s chart your perfect course together.
Discover Your Dream Voyage and Make Every Wave Feel Like it Was Made For You
Step 1: Define Your Cruise Goals
Where do you want your story to unfold?
- Caribbean: For warm breezes, bright beaches, and pure relaxation.
- Alaska: For awe-inspiring scenery, wildlife, and adventure.
- Mediterranean: For food, history, and European charm.
Each destination offers something different — and your choice sets the tone for the journey.
What’s your budget?
Cruises fit nearly every price point. Factor in more than the fare: excursions, tips, Wi-Fi, and drinks can affect your total cost. We always include required gratuities in our pricing, so there are no surprise charges. And with group discounts, your dream vacation can easily fit your budget.
Who’s joining you?
Family reunion? Girls’ getaway? Corporate retreat? The mix of travelers shapes everything — from your ship choice to your dinner times and shore adventures. Together, we’ll design a plan that suits everyone in your group.
Step 2: Choose Your Cruise Style
Luxury or Adventure?
- Luxury cruises offer all-inclusive indulgence — fine dining, pampering spas, and private suites.
- Adventure cruises are for explorers — think kayaking in Alaska or diving in the Caribbean.
Large or Small Ship?
Big ships bring energy, entertainment, and endless amenities. Small ships bring intimacy, tranquility, and boutique experiences.
Themed Cruises
Want a twist? From wine tastings to wellness retreats, music festivals to photography workshops — themed cruises unite travelers with shared passions and make every moment feel personal.
Step 3: Pick the Perfect Itinerary
Length of Cruise
Short 3- to 5-day escapes are great for beginners or quick celebrations.
Week-long or multi-week itineraries offer deeper immersion — ideal for milestone trips or once-in-a-lifetime group adventures.
Ports & Excursions
Look beyond the ship to the stories ashore: snorkeling in Cozumel, touring Pompeii, watching whales in Juneau. Choose ports that excite everyone in your group.
Balance Sea Days and Port Days
Sea days let you slow down, bond, and soak in shipboard life. Port days bring the thrill of discovery. A well-balanced itinerary ensures both adventure and serenity.
Dining Delights
From elegant five-course dinners to casual cafés, dining is central to the cruise experience. Make sure your ship offers variety, plus options for all diets and preferences.
Entertainment & Activities
Live shows, deck parties, cooking classes, trivia nights — every ship has its own rhythm. Match your group’s vibe to the atmosphere you’ll love most.
Wellness & Fitness
If health and balance are part of your lifestyle, choose ships with state-of-the-art gyms, spa sanctuaries, and sunrise yoga on deck.
Step 4: Learn from Experience
Read Traveler Reviews
Sites like Cruise Critic and TripAdvisor reveal real-world experiences — the good, the great, and the “wish-I-knew-that-sooner.”

Online forums and social groups are filled with travelers who love to share tips, packing lists, and insider secrets. They’re great places to get excited before you even leave port.
Step 5: Book and Prepare
Book Early for Best Value
Early booking means more choices, better prices, and time to plan your group’s perfect setup. We’ll also help you spot special promos and bonus amenities.
