Be smart, do your research and book well in advance if you want a specific room, then log onto ***********.com and watch for price reductions.... if you waiting for last minute deal: watch your airfare prices or it won't be such a deal...

First time cruising: log onto cruisecritic.com and join the r/call boards after you book...they are very helpful and everyone is willing to chime in and answer questions

Excursions: do some research to learn about the area: send your kids some fun trivia questions to keep them interested and excited about the vacation. let the kids earn some $$ for spending if they get the answers correct....it works for us every time!
