Romance on the Water

Any cruise can be amorous when you’re cruising with the right person. But some cruise destinations naturally lend themselves to a more romantic getaway. Take your special someone on just the right cruise-for-two for you!

Alaska

What’s romantic about Alaska? Coldness=Cuddling! Plus, adventure bonds you together. So after a day exploring the natural wonders of Alaska – either by hiking, kayaking together in a secluded inlet, or laughing at each other as you try to paddleboard – you collapse together onto a cozy couch in the lounge with a warm drink and talk about how you’ve never had so much fun. Or maybe you were smart enough to book a ship with on-deck hot tubs and a complimentary massage? Like these that I’ve picked for you…

Upper Mississippi River

When my husband gets that wanderlust feeling, he says he wants to, “Drive through small towns in Iowa.” I think this phrase is unique to him, but there is something magical about small towns in Iowa – well, in all of the midwest, really. There’s just something about exploring the mom and pop shops still keeping Downtown USA going that inspires a strong sense of nostalgia that can be very comforting. You’ll find yourselves walking through a city park, holding hands, watching strangers that suddenly seem so familiar… like you’re home.

The South Pacific

Of course, we can’t have a list of romantic cruise destinations without mentioning the beautiful island nation of Tahiti! These roundtrip cruises often come with amazing amenities, and are always a favorite of our clients. In fact, we recently had longtime clients Mike & Marian get back from their own Tahitian getaway, and even after a dozen trips with us, they said this was their favorite. And who could blame them? Beautiful blue waters, stunning scenery, getting to explore a new culture and meet friendly people, and even try their delicious and unique cuisine!
