1. The Food

The food has to be mentioned. Not only is the food always incredible and something different than what you always eat, but its also included! Eat your heart away!

2. Deck Parties

Dancing, lights, drinks, themes, and a whole lot of fun. That about sums it up, deck parties are a great way to spend a night on the ship! Plus everyone from all ages is included.

3. The Ports

I think a big selling factor is that you get to go to more than one place. On a 7 day cruise, you can go to at least 4 different ports. This means you can say you've been to a lot more places than if you did a land-based trip.

4. Shows and Entertainment

There is always something going on on the ship. Whether you are in the mood for a piano bar or a Broadway-like show, there is something for you!

5. Stewards

So stewards and stewardesses are god-sent! They are amazing. They clean your room twice a day. This includes making up and turning down your bed, cleaning the sink and shower, sometimes folding your clothes, and the best part (cannot be guaranteed), the towel animals!

6. The Staff

The best cruise director ever!Skyler Anderson

Cruise ship staff, in general, is the best! They are all so kind and helpful, they want to make the vacation one you will never forget. I can't tell you how many cruise ship employees have done something special for me that I will never forget.

7. The Diversity

Cruise ships host people from all over the world. Whether they are employees or other vacationers, you are guaranteed to meet someone from a different part of the world. How cool is that?

8. You Can Experience Things At Different Ages

One of the things I have always loved about cruises is that you are in International waters so the rules are different. You can drink beer and wine at the age of 18, as well as gamble at the casino and go to the clubs and comedy shows. For young adults from America, this is a big selling factor.

9. Kid's Club

I started cruising when I was 8. Some people thought that cruises most have been boring for me but yet they have always been quite the opposite. I always enjoyed the Kid's club on cruises because I got to participate in fun activities like theme nights and scavenger hunts while I also got to make new friends from all over the world!

10. The Price

Ok, don't let people tell you that cruises are expensive! I mean, they are pricey but not for what you get. Cruises include so much for everyone and are such a breeze! Plus, there are always so many good deals on cruises! My go-to website is https://www.vacationstogo.com/.

Honestly, I could go on forever and ever about everything that makes cruising amazing but hopefully this list was enough to convince you to give it a try!
