The Perfect 3 day cruise

By Maria Ramin

Aching to go on a vacation but pressed for time? Rather than take a week-long holiday, why not try a 3 day cruise? It's affordable and the experience is as great as a long vacation on a cruise ship.

Here are the best parts of it:

Delectable cuisine, romantic movie nights,world-class entertainment, massage and spas, outdoor and indoor activities, wall climbing, snorkeling, parties, musicals, variety shows and seaside excursions. Expect superb customer service and experience first class pampering from the cruise staff.

For first-time cruise travelers, you may want to start with a 3 day cruise from Los Angeles, Miami, Fort Lauderdale or San Diego. Short trips such as a 3 day cruise will help you decide whether to go for the longer cruises next time.

You may also try out the 2 or 3 night cruises popularly called repositioning cruises.

This is when major cruise lines reposition cruise ships from the South America to North America. For those in San Francisco, they usually can embark on cruise ships repositioning from South America to Alaska. These mega ships stop in Los Angeles, San Francisco and now Seattle before arriving in Vancouver and then on to Alaska.

Whatever you call these short cruise trips, it's the great rates that make it a top choice. Now, you don't have to spend a fortune for a cruise trip.

In 2007, more cruise liners are offering cruises from San Francico to Alaska during the summer months and San Francisco to Mexico during the cooler season. A lot of passengers have taken this route lately. Also, we were able to travel to Vancouver via coastal cruises in the past. It's a lovely place to visit.

The sheer excitement of cruising off into the sunset is an experience that you will never forget.
