Norwegian's Official Travel Blog

Whether you're a first-time cruiser or an experienced traveller, here is some advice that's always a helpful reminder: Try something - anything - new every day of your cruise. Granted, such a suggestion is easy to indulge because you’re likely to explore a different port city every day. However, I find that when it comes to food, we tend to stick to the first onboard dining experience we like, rather than explore our way through Norwegian’s diverse culinary selections

When considering a cruise, images of lavish buffets, all-night entertainment, and luxury spa treatments often come to mind. With Norwegian Cruise Line, these amenities and more await you. However, your onboard experience is only half of a total cruise holiday experience. When sailing Norwegian, be prepared to savour adventures, visiting some of the world's most famous cities and natural wonders through Norwegian's shore excursions.

Cruising with kids is probably one of the most exciting family holidays you'll take. Besides having the satisfaction of knowing you're sticking to your budget by taking advantage of the fantastic Kids Sail Free promotion with Norwegian Cruise Line — where third and fourth guests can enjoy complimentary cruise fares on select cruises — you can revel in the idea that your kids will never be bored no matter which cruise ship or destination you choose.

With dozens of Norwegian Cruise Line's distinct and stunning bars and lounges expertly placed through each ship, grabbing a delicious drink and relaxing in your preferred venue couldn't be easier.

What's the first thing that comes to mind when you think about going on a cruise vacation? Is it exploring historic sites or shopping for souvenirs in exciting ports of call? Perhaps it's the vibrant nightlife or invigorating spa rituals available on your ship. While these are amazing answers, there's one thing that stands above all else for many cruisers — the food. From making your own salsa in Mexico to sampling fresh seafood in Alaska, Norwegian Cruise Line offers you the chance to tempt your taste buds on culinary cruises for foodies across the globe.
