What you need to do is search all of the Internet sites that focus on cruises, even discount cruises. Then, find out what time of year is the best time for a Mediterranean cruise as well as the least expensive time of year for a Mediterranean cruise. These considerations can save you a significant amount of money on your Mediterranean cruise if you plan to travel in the off-season.Also, different day packages as well as Mediterranean cruise destinations might affect the price of your Mediterranean cruise. Keep this in mind and don’t have your heart set on an exact list of destinations or days, but rather work with what is available and less expensive. If you are determined to take a Mediterranean cruise for your honeymoon you will be able to find something that will be pleasing to you as well as your budget. The best advice is to start searching and making plans for your Mediterranean cruise as early in advance as possible in order to get the best deals.

| Cruise the beautiful Arctic
by Jasmine M
Pack your boots, parka, scarf, gloves, and hat, and then start packing; you're going on a polar adventure to the Arctic, and it is a little cold in that beautiful part of the globe! What better way to experience this winter wonderland on top of the world than on an Arctic cruise-plus, it comes with warm and luxurious accommodations that follow you everywhere you snow, I mean, go. So get ready to chill on an Arctic cruise today. Whether you're going for the snow safari, the winter sporting, or the ecological treasures, there is a perfect Arctic cruise for you. Visit Greenland, Iceland, Russia's Far East and Wrangel Island, Franz Josef Land, Labrador, Newfoundland, and Spitsbergen or go higher to the North Atlantic Islands or on up to the North Pole. Many trips include Alaskan, Canadian, Scottish, Norwegian, and Russian port stops along the way. Plenty of cool excursions await you at each stop-from sea kayaking and scuba diving to tundra hikes and historical explorer expeditions.From the ship deck or the icebreaker deck (if you choose to take one of those fabulous polar mobiles), you can encounter this snowy playground at its best from icy seascapes to snow-white landscapes and a glimpse of all its wildlife friends like polar bears, walrus, seals, reindeer, killer whales, bowhead whales, penguin, seabirds, and more. You'll shiver in awe as you watch the glaciers, icebergs, mountains, waterfalls, and tundra plant life roll by right before your eyes.I bet Karen Carpenter wasn't literally standing on the top of the world when she wrote that famous song, but you can be when you hum a few bars. Go Arctic, take a deep cold breath in, and sing it loud and proud, “I'm on the top of the world looking down on creation…” That's it. Then you can hightail it right back to your cozy room aboard the Arctic cruise ship and appreciate the cold from the best place ever-from the warmth of all aboard.

| Italy Cruise - Expert Guide
by John Metcalfe
History, wine, serene beauty, dramatic people and stunning views - an Italy cruise has it all! You can visit the main sites of Italy on a European cruise or a Mediterranean cruise, but to really experience Italy - to really taste it - you need to immerse yourself in everything that Italy has to offer by taking an Italy cruise...Italy cruises depart from several ports around the country. Many depart from Civitavecchia - the gateway port to Rome. However, to get the full Italy experience it is recommended that an Italy cruise be embarked upon from the ports of Savona or Genoa on the Ligurian Peninsula and taken all the way round to Venice, or vice-versa. This way, you'll discover that there's a lot more to Italy than a cruise departing from Civitavecchia would be able to show you!So, what delights await in this classical land? The Ligurian Peninsula is a true paradise. Largely undiscovered by mass tourism, quaint Italian villages line the coastline in this spectacular part of Italy. Beautiful sandy beaches alternate with rocky headlands, and magnificent coastal villages shine like beacons on the shore...In Genoa you can discover the birthplace of Christopher Columbus and marvel at the city's stunning Gothic architecture. A little further to the south Livorno is a port of call worth spending a little time at. Here, you will be able to arrange shore excursions to see the famous leaning tower of Pisa, as well as visit the grand Renaissance city of Florence - home to Dante, Michaelangelo and the Medicis...The Colosseum at Rome, Mount Vesuvius and the ancient city that it buried - Pompeii - are essential attractions to visit when on an Italy cruise, as is Rimini on the Adriatic Sea. From Rimini you can take a shore excursion to visit the enclave of San Marino, which is less than an hour's drive from Rimini port...Finally, irresistible Venice awaits as the final stop at the end of your cruise. Venice is a true waterworld, consisting of more than 120 islands through which a network of waterways can be explored by gondola. Renaissance-style architecture is everywhere in this city, and you'll be able to take a shore excursion that takes in the famous Rialto Bridge and the Bridge of Sighs...So, whether you want to discover what it felt like to be a gladiator in Rome's Colosseum, peer into the gigantic crater of Mt Vesuvius or navigate your way around Venice's canal system, an Italy cruise is a special adventure that you'll never forget.
