Are cruises good choices for family vacations?
Cruises make for great family vacations. One of the things I like most about cruises is that you can really give your kids a lot of freedom. You can give them more freedom on a cruise ship than you can on a land-based vacation. Where are they going to go? How far can they go? But, I think one of the other main advantages of a cruise is that it has something for everybody. It has activities for kids usually starting at about age two, up to seniors. I've seen hundred-year-old people on cruises. Also, there is always something for people to do, no matter what age they are, and that, of course, is something that is wonderful for families who want to take vacations with extended family.
