MUGS

All inclusive cruise ship for couples age 35+ ?

We would like to go on a cruise for 4-5 nights. We don't want a party ship. We want a relaxing, fun ship. What are some good websites to find some deals? what is a good cruise line?

We have been on cruises and you should avoid carnival since it is more of a party ship and Disney is for parents with children.
Try Princess or Celebrity or Norwegian.
We have used the following site for some very good deals on cruises.

Just wanted to add to Tinkertoy's post. Holland America is known for attracting an older crowd, but the average age drops quite a bit on the shorter cruises and the Caribean cruises. I would say the age drops to 45 average.

But as others have mentioned, Princess and Celebrity are pretty good. Royal Caribbean caters to families, Carnival to singles/partiers.

The older crowd had the funds (and time) for the longer cruises, or Alaska or Europe.

I'm 17 and have been on six cruises. I have found that Carnival and Disney, although great for families with small children, are not ideal for anyone who are.. well.. not children! Ironically, Carnival, even with its endless amounts of child-cruisers, is infamous for its parties. The hallways tend to be noisy at night (from children and the highly intoxicated).

I STRONGLY recommend Princess Cruises or Celebrity Cruises. These both offer an extremely broad variety of activities for people of all ages. There are a lot less children and teens on these cruises. My parents also liked these two companies the best. They have amazing spas, wonderful food & restaurants, adventurous AND relaxing excursions on the islands, quiet hallways at night, and the rooms are just lovely.
Many cruise lines have adult-only sections such as pools, 'topless decks' and restaurants.

I hope my answer helped! Feel free to ask me about any other questions!


TINKERTOY ..... the 1 & only
I have been on about 20 cruises with four different cruise lines; Celebrity, Princess, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian. All of those cruise lines, plus Holland America, are great cruise lines. Holland typically has the oldest passengers, like those 50 to 60 and older. All of the others have passengers with a mixture of ages. Norwegian is the most informal of these with its Freestyle cruising that allows you to dine when you want (for dinner), and their formal nights are much more informal than on the other ships. They call it the "dress up if you want to" night and not many people dress up.

Prices on all of these lines are comparable and the way to get lower priced cruises on them is to look for their specials and book early. The specials and discounts you can find by clicking on the appropriate link on their home web pages.

I book online all of the time now because the sites are pretty easy to use. And if you have a question or problem you can just call the assistance number on the web page. My suggestion for you would be a cruise on Celebrity, Princess or Royal Caribbean.

Try vacations to go web sight. They have some of the best prices. I really love princess cruise lines. Been 8 times.
