And Cruise
What is the best Cruise Line for two young adults (23 years old)?
I am planning on taking a Caribbean cruise with my boyfriend sometime next year. Which cruise line is the most youth-friendly? We are both in our early 20′s, and don’t want to be stuck on a boat with a bunch of kids and families or older people.
Also, which cruise route do you recommend. I want to go on a Caribbean cruise, not a cruise to Mexico. I’ve already been to Mexico, and would like to go somewhere different.
A Caribbean cruise is great, depending on where you would like to go. Eastern Caribbean are usually 7 nights and they usually include St. Thomas, St. Marteen, and Nassau, or the cruiselines private island. A Western Caribbean cruise usually includes Jamaica, Cozumel Mexico, Key West, Progresso Mexico, Belize etc.. this also depends on which line you choose to go with. A Southern Caribbean includes San Juan, Aruba, Barbados, and most of the deep southern islands, but this one usually goes out of San Juan, so you would have to plan on flying to the cruiseport.
If you are looking for a cruiseline that is “Youth” friendly then most of them will have families and children on them, unless you book during off season when school is in session, but there will always be children on the ships, just not as many.
The most active cruiselines for your age group would be Royal Caribbean, Carnival and NCL. You will find more older adults on Celebrity and Holland America, but there are pretty much all ages on most of the mainstream lines.
I would suggest that you look at the three mainstream lines websites: www.ncl.com , www.carnival.com, and www.royalcarbbean.com to get an idea of what itineraries are offered and what length of cruise is offered. Either that or contact a cruise specialist agent to ask these questions. They are trained in all the different lines and will be best able to qualify you to the best line based on your answers to questions they will ask.
My recommendation:
Royal Caribbean offers many things on the ship for all age groups. They have the rock climbing walls, the newest ships have the flow rider, there is also mini golf, pools, games etc.
Carnival offers quite a bit of activities for your age group, and if you are planning on a 3 or 4 night cruise, you will find more people your age on the ship…remember they were once known as the “party” ship. But they are catering more to families now..but again, book in off season (not summer, spring break or Christmas time) and you will find less children on the ship.
NCL offers a bowling ally on their newer ships, along with a variety of other activites to participate in, there are plenty of activities for your age group.
Also, the cruiseline you decide on would be dependant on how much money you want to invest in your cruise.
Good luck in your choices.
