(67,133 posts)I like going for voyages that include a nice art/architecture component, and a good, varied cuisine.
We are old and part of what I love about this type of trip is not having to worry about planning, shopping, preparing and serving meals. We like fresh, wholesome foods and a big variety. I like having room service on the ship for breakfast -- coffee and a croissant served in your room! Our own "cabin boy" is a wonderful thing.
They even do your laundry! You have no idea how nice that is -- not having to pack so many clothes. And they even fold it for you!
My aching, arthritic back gets a good rest. It is handicap accessible for my husband who uses a walker.
We have used a travel agent for the last and this new voyage coming up. She knows exactly what we want (I spell out the art I want to see and she arranges it!). And we don't pay her anything.
