If you are thinking of setting out at sea or exploring the wates of a massive river, your holiday is sure to be an extra special experience. If you are doing so for the fist time however, there are a few things you might find useful to know before you begin your preparations.
Documentation
If you are booking your cruise online, then you might be confused as to how you will receive your ticket, luggage tags and so on. For example, if you’ve booked a Chao Phraya river cruise in Bangkok, you will have to visit the relevant cruise site and create an account with which you will be able to sign into the micro site that will provide you with the ticket and necessary documentation.
What to pack
Thoughts straying back to what you should be packing to take along with you? Well, you could consider what the weather will be like at the ports you will be docked at for a short while and if there will be and theme parties or formal functions to attend while on the cruise ship itself.
What not to take
When on a cruise ship there are a few generally unacceptable items. Stuff like drugs, weapons and alcohol are not allowed on the ship. Apart from this, heating items like clothing iron, hot plates and and coffee makers. Hair dryers and irons are an exception to the rule.
Can it be a family affair?
Of course, cruises are family friendly, but still, it is better to contact your cruise company like Anantara Cruises and find out more. Children can generally be accommodated a well with diapers and other equipment available.
