Cruising is changing. The variety is as vast as ever, with options ranging from traditional floating metropolises to intimate yachts. Avowed non-cruisers are dipping their toes in the water. They keep coming back. 

A cruise vacation can be as relaxing or as action-packed as you want. There are options for everyone. Plus, shore excursions — guided and otherwise — make it easy to experience numerous destinations on a single itinerary. One of cruises’ main draws is that most of the logistics are already taken care of. 

Discover a few of my favorite cruise lines, and the ideal traveler for each. When you’re ready to set sail, reach out to start planning.

Cruising has come a long way since the days of mediocre buffets and stodgy entertainment. Gone are the days with one crowded pool and limited food options. Now, passengers can take cooking classes from famous chefs or learn about climate issues in Antarctica. Cruise lines have reimagined the on-board experience — and passengers are loving it. 

2024 is on track to be the busiest cruise year on record according to the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), proving that cruisers are into the array of options.
