10 Reasons Why Cruising is Better Than an All-Inclusive Resort
At first glance, all-inclusive resorts seem to have it all: food, drinks, entertainment, shopping, spa services, and a beautiful destination. However, on a cruise vacation with Norwegian Cruise Line, you get all of this and much MORE.
Have you heard the phrase, “Variety is the spice of life”? Well, variety is the spice of the cruising life, for sure! Cruises offer more variety, which leads to a better overall value and experience.

With further inspection and reviewing the list below, you'll understand why cruising can be better than an all-inclusive resort vacation.
1. You get to explore multiple destinations for no additional cost while cruising. At an all-inclusive resort, you only get to experience one destination unless you want to add more expense and travel time. That means you'll be waking up to the same view every day, whereas you'll have a new gorgeous backdrop every morning on a Norwegian cruise. And, the best part - you only have to pack and unpack once! 2. On a cruise, you have more options of things to do. Norwegian cruises offer trivia, bowling, raffles, and art auctions, for starters. If you want to keep a regular workout routine, explore the fitness centre, relax with a much-needed spa treatment, or go shopping right on board. Depending on the itinerary, you may also have destination-themed activities, talks, and more.RELATED CRUISES:

4. Cruise prices, without excursions or extras, are generally lower than all-inclusive resort prices. Plus, with Norwegian's More at Sea, you can enjoy an unlimited open bar! Comparing room and board, food, drinks, and entertainment, cruising wins out in my book. For example, did you know that you can cruise to Hawaii with Norwegian for half the price of an all-inclusive resort vacation?
All-inclusive resorts have a lot to offer - a fact that is conceded here. BUT, the variety and multiple ports of call that a cruise vacation offers always win me over. With so many departure ports to leave from (many of which you can get to without having to purchase airline tickets), and with so many destinations to discover, a cruise vacation is one of the best ways to see the world. And if your goal is to see the world and have an amazing time doing it, come join us on a Norwegian cruise. You can't beat the value, entertainment, and experience you'll get!
