A décor that will leave you in awe …

A true floating city !

The first few days on board are an opportunity to get familiar with the ship and settle into this real floating city. Indeed, a cruise ship is much more than just a hotel with cabins serving as rooms, some with balconies and sea views.

The corridors of the Costa Fascinosa cruise ship provide access to the numerous cabins

It offers a full array of restaurants and bars, a theater, cozy lounges for relaxing, dance floors, a nightclub, a grand atrium with glass elevators, a casino, duty-free shops for shopping, pools with waterslides, jacuzzis… and I’ll stop here, though this list is far from exhaustive, it certainly gives a good idea of the multitude of services on board !

Easy to get lost !

With its many decks, sometimes over ten on the largest ships, it’s easy to feel lost when you first arrive on board ! But luckily, there’s a certain logic, with the lower decks dedicated to services like restaurants, bars, and the theater, while the upper decks house the cabins, and at the very top, outdoor activities with large terraces and pools with retractable roofs.

All decks are served by multiple elevators and staircases spread along the length of the ship. A main deck allows access to all areas from bow to stern without needing to change decks !

Every day, a new discovery !

Every day brings a new city, a new country, or sometimes both ! The journey usually takes place at night, though sometimes during the day if the next destination is far. This is a chance to explore the ship, get to know it better, and really fine-tune your experience ! In the end, it’s often by the end of the cruise that the ship seems to have revealed all its secrets — or maybe not !

The cruises offered by the largest companies like Carnival, Costa, Cunard, MSC, and Royal Caribbean are just as varied as the seas and oceans they navigate. See for yourself, you could set off to explore:

the Mediterranean Sea and its islands
the Caribbean Sea, surrounded by its many islands forming the Antilles arc
the Atlantic Ocean with a Transatlantic crossing
North America
Northern Europe with its fjords
and for those with a real appetite for adventure, a world tour of the oceans

So, are you ready to set sail ?
