hi to you sweetingsweet have a look at thompson cruises they are not the poshest ships but if you are limited for cash they are not to bad ,will give you a idea of cruising.......regards ..johndoe
Our last cruise worked out about £87 per person per day. For that we got flights, transfers, 7 nights full board (with as much food as you can eat, when you want to eat it) as much drink as we wanted, fantastic entertainment, cinema, plus the opportunity to visit 5 different ports of call in 3 different countries. You get spoiled for these 7 days. If you equate that cost of £87 per person, that may only get you one nights dinner bed & breakfast in a hotel in the UK!!!
When you visit the ports, you can do your own thing which again will save you money as the excursions can be quite pricey.
Also companies like Royal Caribbean do "taster" cruises for 2 or 3 nights which would give you an idea of what a cruise would be like.
If you decide to go for it I am sure you will NOT be disappointed. Beware though - they are addictive!!
on crusie ships is there different age groups on there? sugarbabe61 what website did u try to book on, that all sounds very nice?
If you are looking at Costa you may be able to save even more money by taking the £200 discount and arranging your own low-cost flights. Taking this route I booked my parents onto Costa last October for less than £50 per night!

The ship is over thirty years old but still offers good value cruising, Just don't expect modern luxury royal caribbean/carnival style cruising.

Keep an eye out for Island escape May,June came down to £299 for 7nights including flights to Palma for the last two years. This was not AI you still had drinks to pay for. I see they are already advertising at £399 so expect further falls in price over the next 4-6 weeks for early season.
