If you have never cruised but have always thought you might like to - there are some things you need to know

Here are a few tips (you'll find more if you search the internet) that will help you to plan your first trip.

Choosing a time and place

You can cruise at any time of the year, and every region has its cruising seasons. If you want to cruise from Australia then you will get the most choice in the warmer months. If you want to cruise the Mediterranean then you will have more choice in the northern summer. If Antarctica is your dream then you will also go in our summer - if it's the Arctic then it's our winter. You may want to do an expedition cruise - perhaps you fancy exploring northern Russia or New Guinea. Or you may want to take a river cruise in Europe, in Egypt or discover the lesser known reaches of the Mekong in Vietnam or the Irrawaddy in Burma.
