Cruises to Portugal

Portugal cruises will offer you an insight into its enchanting culture. Indulge in the country’s robust cuisine that celebrates the riches of the ocean and its lush, rolling countryside, not to mention the crisp whites, fruity reds, and famous port wine. Marvel at fairytale castles, lounge on endless sandy beaches, explore colorful markets, and experience ancient musical traditions. Most importantly, connect with the people, who are as warm and welcoming as the sunny climate.

Lisbon, the hilly capital, has wonderful architecture, a romantic old quarter, superb museums, and a thriving culinary scene. In the north, the glorious old city of Porto is a gateway to the riches of the Douro Valley, where port wine vineyards snake along steep hillsides and ornate palaces doze in the sunshine amid sprawling wine estates. The rugged Atlantic island of Madeira has its own charms, not least a beautifully preserved old city, Funchal, and some of the finest coastal walking in Europe. You may also call at the remote Azores, where you can explore dramatic volcanic scenery around Ponta Delgada, or join a whale-watching excursion. Sail to Portugal on a European cruise with Celebrity Cruises.

Portugal Cruise Highlights

Wine regions.

A cruise to Portugal will take you to some of the world’s most famous wine regions. From the port of Leixoes, you can visit the wild beauty of the Douro Valley, where sinuous vineyards and silvery olive groves line the river banks. Taste vintage ports, as well as the celebrated Mateus Rosé. From Lisbon, explore the lush countryside of the south to sample floral Moscatel wines. Madeira, meanwhile, produces its own fortified wines from grapes ripened in the Atlantic sunshine.

Historic Architecture

Exquisite castles and rugged fortifications are dotted all over Portugal. Don’t miss the 11th-century ramparts of the Castelo de São Jorge that snake across the hills of Lisbon and its stupendous views over the city’s terracotta rooftops. Visit the Torre de Belem to admire the intricate Manueline styling on this monument to the great explorers. And while the 19th-century turreted, red and yellow Pena Palace near Sintra is relatively modern, it’s a vision straight from a fairytale.

Experience the musical heritage of Portugal with a Fado performance. Fado is a uniquely Portuguese style of music that combines melodic notes from a mandolin or guitar with a melancholy tone and lyric, telling stories of life, love, and loss. It’s hauntingly beautiful to listen to and is especially prevalent in the intimate fado bars of the ancient Alfama District of Lisbon.

Douro Experience 2024

Highlights of the Portugal Cruise

Chasing the sun.

From Porto to Régua, Pinhão, Barca d'Alva, Vega Terron, Pinhão, Régua and Leverinho to Porto.

What do you have in mind when it comes to Portugal? Spectacular cliffs, the taste of port wine or melancholic fado? Everything's right. From 2019 on, a new puzzle piece will be added: Our new A-ROSA vessel. Come aboard, discover the beauty of the Douro and have a look directly into the soul of Portugal! The port of departure and destination of our trips on the Douro is Porto. So you have plenty of opportunities to stroll through the beautiful old town, enjoy the view from Portugal's highest church tower or enjoy one of the 365 Bacalhau dishes, Portugal's favourite dried fish. And don't miss out on a trip to Salamanca in Spain, which is a UNESCO World Heritage City with its university from the 13th century.

A mesmerising city carved in granite: in Porto you’ll find new, exciting perspectives at every turn – whether you’re beside the steadily flowing Douro, with its six different bridges, or in the lively city quarters of this northern Portuguese metropolis. As well as the imposing buildings of light-coloured granite, the symbols of Portugal’s second-largest city include gleaming azulejo tiles adorning church walls and townhouses, which look particularly handsome when it isn’t raining. You’ll need to be in good shape here – Porto is very hilly! But it’s worth the effort, because Porto – whose old town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site – is pure poetry.

The little town of Pinhão is located in the famous port wine region, in the area where the Douro and its surrounding landscape are at their most picturesque. It is surrounded by enchanting vineyards and the quintas that produce the wine. You can visit them from Pinhão and enjoy tours and wine tasting. To get there, you can either follow walking trails with glorious views or take a boat that also ferries visitors to interesting stretches of the river. One of the best-known walking trails takes you from the Douro bridge up seven kilometres of the hilly Rua Praça de Oliveira as far as the Casal de Loivos viewing point.

This provincial capital situated at about 800 metres on the banks of the Río Tormes, is in a league of its own. It has one of the most beautiful central squares (Plaza Mayor) and one of the oldest universities in Spain (13th century). The latter gives Salamanca a lively student scene. This city has always been popular – the Romans and the Moors certainly liked it here. In 1085, King Alfonso VI returned it to Spanish rule during the reconquest of Islamic Spain. The old town, with its variety of architectural monuments, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The city’s Holy Week processions have a long tradition and are very popular.

1st Day Porto

Welcome to Porto! A dream made of granite and turned into a city. In Porto, you will come across new, exciting sights after every bend in the road. But first enjoy the atmosphere on the sun deck on board and savour the first few hours in Portugal on board the A-ROSA ALVA.

2nd Day Porto Dep 07:00 am Régua Arr 01:00 pm Dep 02:00 pm Pinhão Arr 05:00 pm

Good Morning Porto! For breakfast, you can admire the departure on the Douro. Float along in the morning hours and enjoy the first kilometres of the journey in the middle of Porto.

Régua is the largest city on the banks of the Douro in this wine-growing valley. It is such a beautiful place that the Alto Douro region has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001. The town played a fundamental role in the production and marketing of port wine – which was transported away by sailing boat – as early as the 18th century.

Lamego is definitely worth a visit, for it’s not just a really charming little town but also one of Portugal’s most important pilgrimage sites. Perhaps that’s why the main thoroughfare leads right up to the 686 steps that, in turn, come to an end high up at the Santuário de Nossa Senhora dos Remédios. This baroque church with its two towers was built in the 18th century on the site of a smaller 14th-century chapel and is striking from a distance as well as close up. The so-called "stairway to heaven" is decorated with several beautiful azulejos and from the top, you can enjoy stunning views of Lamego. Lamego also offers many culinary delights, such as "Bola de Lamego", smoked pork, spinach or fish baked in bread with a glass of sparkling Raposeira wine.

Enjoy the tranquillity of nature with the best view of the vineyards! Quinta da Pacheca is one of the most prestigious and recognized wineries in the demarcated Douro region. The history of the vineyard of this estate dates back to the XVI century. The Quinta has always focused on the production of high quality DOC and Port wines from the Douro. Experience some of these wines during a very special picnic with breathtaking views and a wonderful atmosphere.

€ 129 per person

This excursion is only bookable on request. We recommend that you make a reservation online.

Every year, September and October mark the beginning of the most important time of the year for the Douro Valley’s winegrowers: the grape harvest. Join us on an excursion to the area, and discover the very heart of Portugal. You’ll first stop at the Adega Cooperativa de Favaios to learn everything about the industrial wine production, before visiting a family-owned bakery because wine and bread definitely belong together here. Afterwards, we will visit the Quinta Avessada, where grapes have been pressed for five generations. The family welcomes you with traditional music that has always been part of the grape harvest. Under the guidance of experts, you’ll roll up your sleeves – and later your trouser legs – so that you can pick grapes then crush them underfoot in traditional granite troughs. If this sounds too much like hard work, don’t worry! There’ll be music, tasty regional treats and, of course, wine to enjoy.

The excursion will only take place on the following dates: 05 Sep | 12 Sep | 19 Sep | 26 Sep | 03 Oct 2024

€ 70 per person

approx. 4 h

After arriving at the Quinta da Avessada, you will be welcomed with music and an apéritif, followed by a short visit of the vineyard. Afterward, you'll be served a traditional Portuguese menu. Usually, this menu serves as a thank you to the harvest hands from the winemaker. Enjoy the relaxed and festive atmosphere and get to know the traditions of the Portuguese culture.

This excusion is already included in your cruise package. Please book online in advance.

3rd Day Pinhão Dep 01:00 pm Barca d'Alva Arr 07:00 pm

The small town of Pinhão is waiting to be discovered by you! Why not go for a short walk along the Douro in the morning hours? Our SPA-ROSA with sauna and various massages ensures a relaxed start to the day.

Enjoy a typical port wine tasting by Croft at the Quinta da Roeda this morning. At the Quinta you will have a wonderful view over Pinhão and the beautiful Douro Valley. After a short tour, you may taste something special for this vineyard - the Pink Port.

approx. 2 h

Barca d'Alva

Amidst the hilly landscape of the Parque Natural do Douro lies Barca d'Alva. The tranquil village serves as the perfect starting point for excursions to Castelo Rodrigo and Salamanca.

4th Day Barca d'Alva Dep 12:00 pm Vega Terron Arr 12:30 pm

The heart of Salamanca is the university because knowledge has been brought from here into the city and the whole world since 1218. Today, almost 40,000 students study at the fourth-oldest university in the world. Cathedrals have always been not only places of devotion, but also demonstrations of power. As the originally small, old cathedral of Salamanca was no longer representative, it was decided in 1513 to build a new one around it - one of enormous dimensions. They are both impressive. Have you ever drunk coffee in a bullring? On the Plaza Mayor, that's no problem. The bullfighters are called "Forcados", but haven't fought here in a long time. Even today, the huge square with its granite floor and mighty archway is a real spectacle - especially when everything is beautifully illuminated in the evening. No wonder, that it is considered to be the most beautiful place in Spain.

€ 105 per person

approx. 9.5 h

Vega Terron

In Vega Terrón, the Agueda joins the Douro. Both rivers form the natural border between Portugal and Spain. From here, you can take a trip to the Spanish city of Salamanca. With its new cathedral, old town and famous university, the city has a very special flair. Don't miss Salamanca's UNESCO World Heritage Site! 

5th Day Vega Terron Dep 12:15 pm Pinhão Arr 06:30 pm

Figueira Castelo Rodrigo is situated 671 metres above sea level and is one of Portugal's twelve historically significant villages. Surrounded by almond trees, whose blossom brightens the landscapes, it is also known as the "white city". Storks became the symbol of the city, because they spend about nine month every year in this region. The village has typically medieval and narrow streets and facades from the 16th century as well as Manuelistic window ornaments. It is known for being a place where Jews, Arabs and Christians have coexisted in peace and harmony over the past few centuries. After visiting the ruins of the castle, we walk through the narrow streets of the village, where you can still find numerous traces of the Jewish community. We will also visit the small medieval church and after that you still have enough time to stroll through the village enjoying a coffee and almond specialities.

The little town of Pinhão is located in the famous port wine region, in the area where the Douro and its surrounding landscape are at their most picturesque. It is surrounded by enchanting vineyards and the quintas that produce the wine. You can visit them from Pinhão and enjoy tours and wine tasting.

6th Day Pinhão Dep 07:00 am Régua Arr 09:00 am Dep 03:00 pm Leverinho Arr 07:00 pm

The Mateus Palace, still owned by the Count of Vila Real, was built by the architect Niccolo Nasoni in Baroque style. The original furniture and, above all, the exceptional and handcrafted chestnut wooden ceilings make the interior of the palace so unique and take you back to a bygone century. After the guided tour, you will visit the famous garden of the palace, an absolute must-see. With its sculptures, ponds and rare trees, it is one of the most beautiful gardens in Portugal.

€ 63 per person

Your hostess is Her Grace Maria Manuel Cyrne, who comes from an aristocratic family based in the Douro Valley and Lisboa. Together with her husband, she is also a Knight of the Order of Malta, a religious-military order founded in the 11th century with the aim of providing humanitarian aid. Countess Maria will welcome you with a smile and open arms and treat you like a member of her family. After a tour of the impressive estate, a lunch prepared by the countess herself awaits you. With every step and every bite, you will feel the magic that Maria spreads with her sense of hospitality.

The rustic Leverinho is not far from Porto. From here, you can set off on exciting excursions to the harbour city.

Welcome to Porto, the city that gave its name to one of the finest wines in the world, Port Wine. The city tour takes us along the Douro river to the mouth of the river and further along the Atlantic coast past the noble villa town, Foz do Douro, right into the city centre. Photo stops and explanations at Porto Cathedral in the heart of the old town, at the Palace of Justice near the Clerigus bell tower and at the famous railway station will bring you closer to the city. Here in the middle of the old town, which has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 1996, you will also have some free time. Then we cross the landmark of the city, the bridge "Dom Luís I", which was designed by Gustav Eifel, to Vila Nova de Gaja. This town is known for the old warehouses of the winegrowers which exist for over 100 years now. Here we will visit a typical wine cellar and taste the famous port wine.

Zu den Wahrzeichen von Portugals zweitgrößter Stadt gehören die glänzenden Azulejofassaden an Kirchenwänden und Stadthäusern. Die Altstadt, welche zum UNESCO-Welterbe erklärt wurde, ist pure Poesie. Genießen Sie den Tag in Porto!

Visiting Guimarães is like stepping into the pages of Portugal’s history books. This city at the foot of the Serra da Penha is considered the place where Portugal was first established. Afonso Henriques was born here and in 1139, following a victory over the Moors, he became the first king of Portugal and declared Guimarães his capital. Today, you can still see what the city was like during its heyday. Our excursion will take you to sites such as Guimarães Castle, where Alfonso Henriques spent his youth. This fortress, built in the mid 10th century on the orders of the Galician countess Mumadona Dias, is considered one of the country’s best-preserved Romanesque castles. Just as impressive – and right next door – is the Paço Ducal, a French-influenced palace built in 1420 as the seat of the dukes of Bragança. In the old town, you’ll find small, lovingly restored town houses, grand squares and convents interspersed with modern buildings and cafés. The most attractive street is without doubt the Rua de Santa Maria, which takes you from the palace to the central Largo da Oliveira (‘Olive tree square’) – the perfect place to stop for a couple of original Portuguese pastéis de nata (custard tarts).

Portugal Cruises

Mastering the balance between casual, cultural and charming.

History, great food, and beautiful scenery are just the beginning of your experience on a Mediterranean cruise to Portugal . Located on the Atlantic Ocean, Portugal is a friendly, low-key cruise destination with a casual vibe and fantastic coastline. Destinations on a Portugal cruise include Lisbon  and Funchal , the capital of the Portuguese island of Madeira.     Lisbon is known for its Manueline architecture. This lavish design native to Portugal, is best observed when touring monuments and exploring medieval alleyways. One fine example is the Belem Tower , a UNESCO World Heritage site dating back to 1514 that commemorates the expedition of explorer Vasco da Gama. The climb to the top of the tower offers spectacular views of the river and city. For those looking for more a leisurely travel experience, Lisbon offers spectacular scenic views from its famous seven hills , with vantage points to admire the city’s horizon.     Funchal , the capital of Madeira features botanical gardens with an abundance of variety and colour. In Funchal, cable cars are a popular mode of transportation to the hilltop town of Monte. After a day of exploring the historic old town, the Monte Toboggans , and the cable car, return to your cruise ship and enjoy all of the on board amenities.    Spending the afternoon in a restaurant admiring the coastline and enjoying the culinary delights of Portugal is a lovely way to experience the local culture during a Portugal cruise. Freshly baked bread, cheese, olives, chargrilled fish, and smoked meats accompanied by red wine, or crisp young white wine exemplify a typical simple and delicious meal which the Portuguese have perfected.     Book your cruise to Portugal with MSC Cruises, and enjoy a world of natural beauty and a range of gastronomic delights that will make your holiday a truly memorable experience.

Spain, Portugal & the Canary Islands Cruises

See classical architecture, hob-nob in hip bars, or scale an imposing volcano.

Tucked into the far southwestern corner of Europe, the nations of the Iberian Peninsula are home to diverse cultural riches and myriad opportunities for outdoor exploration. Start a cruise vacation to experience Spain's Islamic-inflected architectural heritage at the Alhambra in Granada and the Giralda in Seville. See the dramatic cliffs and turquoise waters of Portugal's Algarve, and take exhilarating hikes around the calderas of active volcanoes in the Canary Islands. As an added bonus, the food and drink in Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands is life-altering — from finger foods like Spanish tapas and Portuguese petiscos to crisp white wines like Vinho Verde and bold reds from Rioja.

Turn Back the Clock

Retrace history along Spain's coast, from the lives of world-famous artists to monasteries dating back to the time of Christopher Columbus.

PICASSO AND PALS

The imaginary camaraderie between Picasso, Gaudi and Miro notwithstanding, the works of these men are a great way to add culture to your Spanish cruise. Visit Gaudi's Sagrada Familia Cathedral or Miro's "Woman and Birds" sculpture in Barcelona. Then tour the impressive collection of the Picasso Museum in Málaga for something truly distinct.

WORLD HERITAGE

After you stroll through castles like the Alhambra that hearken back to Spain's Islamic past, visit the UNESCO World Heritage site that comprises Lisbon’s Belem Tower and Jerónimos Monastery, which date back to the Age of Explorations that led to the voyage of Christopher Columbus.

TRAIN TO THE PAST

Need a break from the bustle of Barcelona or the lazy crowds of Lisbon? Take a train down the coast to from Barcelona to Sitges, the capital of Catalonian chill or northward from Lisbon to Sintra, whose colorful Pena National Palace has quickly become one of Portugal's most notable sites.

Sun, Sand and Sipping

Nature is in abundant supply in Europe's sunniest sector. Laze on the sandy beaches of Spain and cliff-hewn shores or Portugal, scale volcanic craters in the exotic Canary Islands, or sip fine wines in the region's stunning vineyards.

PICK YOUR BEACH

Whether you prefer to laze on the golden sands of Spain's Costa del Sol, such as at Málaga's La Malagueta Beach, or trek above dramatic cliffs in Portugal's Algarve region or on Tenerife in the Canary Islands, the Iberian Peninsula has all beach bums covered.

TAKE A HIKE

Earn your tapas by taking one of the region's many great hikes. In the Canary Islands, the hike up the Teide Volcano is positively exhilarating. Or get your physical activity in close to a city: Walk up to Barcelona's scenic Park Guell, or make the trek to Lisbon's stunning Miradouro da Graca viewpoint.

VINEYARD VIEWS

Soak in the sunshine and hillside vistas at the wineries of Portugal's Douro Valley, which specializes in Port dessert wines that are known to age for decades. Or head to Spain's Rioja region to sample bold, barrel-aged reds made from the indigenous grape Tempranillo.

Encounter beauty both natural and manmade in Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands

Sail to Spain to sink your teeth into tapas, Portugal to sip sweet port wine or the Canary Islands to feast on the majesty of natural bliss. No matter where in southwestern Europe you visit, a feast is guaranteed.

Spanish Sensibilities

From the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona to the Alhambra in Granada, a cruise to Spain lets you experience the great architecture of Iberia firsthand.

Power Through Portugal

See the expanse of Lisbon from the hilltop viewpoints scattered around the city, or go deeper into the countryside near Porto and see the pristine coastline at Matosinhos Beach.

WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Boost Your Spain Smarts

When to go to Spain, Portugal and the Canary Islands comes down to the experience you want to have. If you don't mind crowds and plenty of sunshine, come during the summer months between June and August or in the shoulder months of May and September. Choose the winter months of January and February if you prefer a quieter vacation.

The weather in Spain, Portugal and the Canaries is pleasant most of the year, though winter can be rainy and occasionally chilly. Summer (and most of spring and fall) are dry, but it's not uncommon for daytime temperatures to rise up to 90 degrees Fahrenheit, especially in the Canary Islands and low-lying places in Spain and Portugal.

Cruises From Lisbon 2024

Kids cruise free: 7 cruise lines offering family deals in 2024

Cruise vacations give families a chance to reconnect and create shared memories. But cruise fares for three or four people can add up, especially when you consider extras like flights, hotels and excursions. One solution? Share a cabin and save with a "kids cruise free" deal.

Many cruise lines — including family favorites like Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line — offer free kids fares and other cruise deals for kids sporadically throughout the year. A few always let kids sail free. You might have the best luck finding family-friendly discounts during wave season , which falls between January and March, when cruise lines have some of the best pricing of the year.

For cruise news, reviews and tips, sign up for TPG's cruise newsletter .

To make your family trip more affordable, here's a list of family-friendly cruise lines where kids cruise free (or on the cheap) when you time your booking to coincide with a short-term promotion. These incentives change frequently, and the deals can sell out fast, so you might need to be flexible on where you sail and when you go. Always read the fine print before booking to catch any hidden costs or restrictions.

MSC Cruises

MSC Cruises frequently offers its "Kids Sail Free" promotion throughout the year in combination with other limited-time sales. Kids 17 and younger sail free as a third or fourth guest in most cabins. (Yacht Club rooms are excluded.)

Some deals might also include discounted fares, along with cabin upgrades, flexible booking options or freebies (like beverage packages or Wi-Fi), so mom and dad might get a perk or two as well. The "Kids Sail Free" offer is combinable with MSC Cruises' discount program for healthcare workers and active-duty or retired military.

Kids will love MSC Cruises for its kids club partnership with Lego and waterslides enhanced by virtual reality. Its pizza is among some of the best in the industry.

Check throughout the year for kids-cruise-free deals on MSC Cruises' website .

Norwegian Cruise Line

Norwegian Cruise Line offers free kids fares via its "Free at Sea" promotion . The offer gives cruisers complimentary booking perks, including free specialty dining, free beverage packages, shore excursion credit, free Wi-Fi and discounted rates for extra guests in a cabin (including kids).

With the latter offer, you can access free or $99-per-person fares for third and fourth guests, regardless of age. This special pricing applies to select sailings and only when the additional passengers share a cabin with the first and second guests.

NCL often offers discounted cruise fares for the first two guests in combination with the "Free at Sea" promotion. Additional perks to help a family's travel budget might include free airfare for the second guest or reduced deposits, depending on the particular promotion running when you book.

Choose Norwegian's newest cruise ships for wow-factor family activities such as go-kart racing, laser tag and waterslides. The line's casual ambience will appeal to kids who don't like being forced to dress up for dinner.

Holland America Line

Holland America Line offers promotional pricing, including its "Kids Cruise Free" program , throughout the year. The restrictions might change, but the bottom-line savings remain the same.

At press time, the line is running a deal where third and fourth guests under age 18 can sail for free on select Caribbean, Mexico and Panama Canal sailings. (Taxes and fees are additional.) The deal is limited to two children per booking.

Parents and caregivers will want to look for additional promotions that might include free balcony upgrades, onboard credit and reduced deposits. Some throw in a complimentary "Have It All" premium package , which includes specialty dining, a beverage package, complimentary shore excursions (the number depends on the length of the cruise) and Wi-Fi. Otherwise, families can upgrade to the more inclusive package for a discounted price.

Holland America is ideal for multigenerational families traveling together who like to go exploring in port and listen to live music on board.

Royal Caribbean

Royal Caribbean 's "Kids Sail Free" promotion is offered periodically throughout the year. Not every deal is the same, but the line typically offers free cruise fares to children 12 years old or younger who sail as additional guests with two full-fare-paying passengers. This is in addition to occasional offers for onboard credit and a discount on a second guest.

Be sure to read the fine print, as the free cruises for kids come with many restrictions, such as blackout dates over major holidays and school vacation periods and minimum sailing lengths.

Royal Caribbean also occasionally offers a deal where "Kids Sail for Less," which usually includes 25% off the fare for additional passengers in a cabin. This promotion has no age limitation, so it's open to any extra guests sharing accommodations with two full-fare-paying passengers.

Royal Caribbean is a favorite with families who love its big-ship attractions, including ice skating and high-diving shows, onboard splash parks and waterslides, rock climbing walls, miniature golf, laser tag, escape rooms and zip lines. Its enormous kids clubs cater to all ages, from babies to teens, and its private island, Perfect Day at CocoCay , is a top destination for families with its multiple beaches and pumped-up water park.

Look for family discounts on Royal Caribbean's deals page .

Regent Seven Seas Cruises

Regent Seven Seas Cruises doesn't usually let kids cruise free, but the luxury line does offer reduced fares for kids ages 17 and younger on select sailings during the summer and holiday season. These fares start at $999 per child (or young adult) sailing as the third or fourth guest in a suite and vary in price, depending on the voyage.

At press time, Regent is advertising a "Kids Sail Free" promotion on select itineraries. The offer is a per-person, cruise-only fare that is available to kids ages 17 years or younger at the time of sailing. They must sail as a third guest in a suite accompanied by an adult who is 21 years of age or older.

Regent always includes unlimited complimentary shore excursions, so kids can explore and stay active while cruising in Alaska, Europe, the Caribbean, the Panama Canal or other destinations included in the promotion.

CroisiEurope

River cruise line CroisiEurope's Family Club cruises let kids up to age 16 sail free or at reduced rates of up to 30% off on select sailings.

Because the line's ships have few rooms that can accommodate more than two passengers, the line has waived the single supplement for families on these sailings. That means two parents and one child can book two cabins for the price of one. (Each parent pays for one berth in each cabin, and the child travels free.)

In 2024, you can find kids-cruise-free deals on CroisiEurope river cruises in Portugal, Spain and Italy, as well as the Rhine River. For Family Club sailings to Croatia, children under 16 years of age receive a 30% discount.

This Family Club cruise deal is limited to two children per paying adult. Supplemental fees might be added for upgraded rooms. On these sailings, optional excursions are geared toward kids, and a menu for younger palates is available in onboard dining venues.

On all other sailings, the river cruise line offers a 20% discount for kids younger than 10 years of age. Children under 2 always sail free.

Star Clippers

If you're planning a multigenerational family getaway, consider booking a voyage on one of Star Clipper's tall ships. Currently, kids between 3 and 17 can sail free with one or two adults in the same cabin on select three- to nine-night 2024 and 2025 sailings in the Caribbean, Central America and the Mediterranean. (For this promotion, you must book by April 30, 2024.)

If two children are traveling with two adults (in specific room categories), the line accommodates the family in two individual cabins. What's more, grandparents ages 65 and older can join in the fun and receive a 10% discount on cruise fares.

Kids can imagine themselves as sailors or pirates with onboard activities such as knot tying and climbing the ship's mast. Older kids especially will enjoy water sports right from the ship.

• August 31, 2024

Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) has announced the 20 winners of its fifth annual Norwegian’s Giving Joy Program, honoring educators for their efforts in the classroom.

The winners will be invited to a two-day inaugural event in Boston from April 4 to 6, 2025, aboard the new Norwegian Aqua. The top five Grand Prize winners will also join the ship’s three-night christening voyage from Miami on April 13, 2025.

  “Giving Joy is a program near and dear to our hearts at Norwegian Cruise Line,” said David J. Herrera, president of Norwegian Cruise Line. “It is an honor to congratulate the 20 incredible educators, who passionately serve their communities, with experiences on board Norwegian Aqua. These amazing teachers are shaping the future of the next generation, and I am thrilled to be able to showcase the brand new Norwegian Aqua with them; sharing the enrichments that bridge the connection between education and travel.”

  Norwegian’s 2024 Giving Joy contest, launched during Teacher Appreciation Week in May, received thousands of votes. Winners were selected from Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Washington and Newfoundland, Canada.

  The top five grand prize winners with the most votes are:  

• Larry Knight Jr. from Stanton College Preparatory School in Jacksonville, Fla.
• Debra Golding from Westglades Middle School in Parkland, Fla.
• Shawn Miller from Loveland High School in Loveland, Ohio
• Bradley Gardner from Franklin Central High School in Indianapolis, Ind.
• Nancy Altimore from City of Pembroke Pines Charter High School-Academic Village in Pembroke Pines, Fla.

As part of the 2024 campaign prizes, roundtrip airfare for the winners and their guests is included, thanks to a donation from Coca-Cola, NCL’s beverage partner.
