there are four key times when a cruise
0:03
is probably better than a land-based
0:04
vacation reason number one when a cruise
0:12
is actually the only way you can do it
0:14
there are a couple of fantastic journeys
0:17
that you can only do on a ship so for
0:20
example a transatlantic crossing on the
0:22
Queen Mary - it's one of the iconic
0:24
journeys harks back to the days of the
0:27
1930s transiting the Panama Canal one of
0:30
the most amazing trips that I've ever
0:32
done you can only really do that on a
0:34
ship the Suez Canal is another good
0:37
example there are some places in the
0:38
world that are very difficult or
0:40
impossible to fly to and the only way of
0:44
really getting there is on a cruise so
0:46
for example the Arctic the Antarctic the
0:48
Galapagos Island and all of those are
0:51
magical expedition places to go with
0:54
incredible sights and incredible
0:56
wildlife something you shouldn't miss
0:58
out on simply because you don't want to
1:00
go under cruise the third reason is
1:03
actually when it's a more efficient way
1:05
of seeing a region there are a couple of
1:08
places again in the world that actually
1:10
being on a cruise is going to make it
1:11
easier to see much more in a
1:13
concentrated period of time when you're
1:15
on a ship than doing it by land so for
1:17
example the Norwegian fjords it's quite
1:20
difficult because the nature the terrain
1:22
to move between different places however
1:24
on a ship you're basically saying
1:26
through the fjords you're surrounded by
1:28
beautiful beautiful scenery all the time
1:31
and you can quite easily get to many
1:34
another example is the Alaska Inside
1:37
Passage again it's quite difficult to
1:39
move between all the different places
1:41
however on a ship you can move quite
1:43
easily between them and you're gonna get
1:45
to see so much more you know much easier
1:48
way when you're on a ship and the fourth
1:51
reason is a cruise is a brilliant way of
1:54
getting a taster or a quick immersion
1:56
into a region particular if you try to
1:58
decide where to go back and spend a time
2:01
on land take the Caribbean if you want
2:03
to go and spend a week or two weeks in
2:05
the Caribbean and you have to choose
2:06
between one or two islands how do you
2:08
know that you're making the right choice
2:09
if you first go on a cruise you can
2:11
visit five or six islands whenever is
2:13
single day and you can see all the
2:15
different islands what they have to
2:16
offer and decide where you want to go
2:18
back to another example is Europe when
2:20
the space of a week you can visit three
2:22
or four countries you can see multiple
2:24
cultures and again get a feel for Europe
2:27
so it's a really good way to immerse
2:29
yourself and get a flavor of a region in
2:31
a short space of time that's four times
2:34
or four reasons when a cruise could be
2:36
better than a land-based vacation
2:38
there's a couple things I'd really like
2:40
you to do when do you think the cruise
2:42
could be better than a land-based
