REALgetaway Posted March 27, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 27, 2013 My partner and I will be celebrating our 25th anniversary in 2015... but we're not yet sure where to cruise to. WE live in the Western US.... we are open to suggestions for a romantic 7 or 10 day cruise. Most likely we would cruise in late summer or fall in 2015.

Bramcruiser Posted March 27, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Congrats. We just finished our 24th anniversary celebrations this past weekend. Well if you want romantic I would probably say South Pacific or Mediterranean but then again I haven't done either. :D Whatever you choose to do enjoy!

REALgetaway Posted March 28, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Congrats on your 24th anniversary too Bramcruiser! Where did you go to celebrate the occasion? Right, and of course subject to change. but Eastern or Western Caribbean both look pretty promising to us. It may be difficult to choose though :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnatello Posted April 7, 2013 #4 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Our 25th was last year. We did a European river cruise. It was OUTSTANDING!!!! We've done "ocean liner" cruises in Europe, and this was our 4th European river cruise. For Europe, if we're not doing a totally land tour, a river cruise is the ONLY cruise option we will do there. You see and experience SOOOOOOO much more! We did St Petersburg to Moscow for our 25th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phxazzcruisers Posted April 8, 2013 #5 Share Posted April 8, 2013 We just celebrated our 25 th anniversary and went to Seattle to get married on New Years Eve. We love cruising and have found them all to be romantic !! Congratulations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMS Olympic Posted April 18, 2013 #6 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Considering a cruise that hits Bali. Choices based on current offerings are few.......HAl for 14 days or Seabourn for 10. If I start saving now I can go Seabourn. Saw Bali on the amazing race and it got me thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachbook Posted April 24, 2013 #7 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I would recommend either the Galapagos Islands or Tahiti! Tahiti is luxury and Galapagos also the adventure aspect. Both were excellent! Have a good time. Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sej67 Posted April 25, 2013 #8 Share Posted April 25, 2013 for Tahiti are there any cruise lines besides Paul Gaugain? They look fun, but very pricy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMS Olympic Posted May 4, 2013 #9 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Princess just added a 10 day cruise in January 2015 on the Sapphire Princess. Round trip out of Singapore......to Bali and other Indonesian ports. Cruise price was great, so I booked it. Very excited......got what I wanted........life is good.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11dfr11 Posted May 11, 2013 #11 Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) We live in South Florida and I would love to go back to Bermuda. We used to go right out of NYC Port and straight to Hamilton. Now they go out of Bayonne, NJ and take you to Kings wharf which is really not exciting and far from everything. There is a trip out of Miami and it is on one of those really expensive ships and they are smaller with less entertainment and more laid back than Celebrity. I will most likely get bored and for their prices, they can keep it. So I just don't know. In the Spring of 2014 we are taking a Celebrity TA for the first time to Rome. A little scared of the seas, curious and have never been away from my home for three weeks as we will stay in Rome extra days. So I love cruising, I want to make each sail special, and meet great people. In 2015 my honey will be 65 and we will be together 37 years. Universe hear my prayers.:) Edited May 11, 2013 by 11dfr11 Correction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks fantastic....we've always wanted to visit Hawaii. We really want to do the Hawaiian cruise but it's looking like we might being sailing out of New Orleans in January 2015. We we're on the Carnival Destiny this past December before it went into dry dock to become Carnival Sunshine. We want to cruise the Sunshine to see all of the changes! I even plan to book the exact same room. :) We've decided to save the Hawaiian cruise for January 2016. We work in health care and work 3 days/week so taking up to 22 days off at a time isn't a problem for us. We are doing the Southern Caribbean cruise out of San Juan in January 2014. Carnival Valor. I'm getting excited about this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawne71 Posted May 23, 2013 #15 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Have a great time. I also want to go to Alaska and Hawaii but not on Carnival. I am a RCI/Celebrity cruiser. Our TA is a big RCI fan as well. We cruised Carnival in December and really enjoyed ourselves. I guess it's what you make of it. We aren't going on ship to zip line across the deck. RCI ships just seem so busy. Seems like they have too much to do. We just want to go sit, drink, relax, and have fun! Plus, we get more room for our buck on Carnival. We had a larger aft balcony and now we are hooked. We'll have to have the aft balcony every time we cruise! Have the same room booked on Carnival Valor this next January. ;) It was my first cruise and my partner's second. His first cruise was the Carnival Carnivale back in the early 90's with his first boyfriend. But we won't talk about that... LOL! :eek: We definitely want to do an Alaskan cruise someday but decided to wait until we are older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go try to book one with Madeira as a port of call, beautiful place, would go back there anytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiSpartan Posted May 25, 2013 #19 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Ooh..hard for us to plan that far ahead..... Would love to finally do Alaska, and also hope that the prices for the Oasis have come down enough for us to do a trip... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven_&_Daniel Posted July 2, 2013 #23 Share Posted July 2, 2013 IF my partner can get off work for so many days, we'll be sailing March 27, 2015 on the Diamond Princess. We're regular Princess cruisers and I've always wanted to go to Australia. The itinerary includes four stops in Australia, Bali, and also Vietnam. It's to celebrate my 50th birthday, and we'll be sailing just prior to our 24th anniversary. Since our seasons are reversed, I wonder if we'll have descent speedo-wearing weather on this trip?

roger75 Posted July 7, 2013 #24 Share Posted July 7, 2013 That sounds like a great itinerary. I will be turning 40 in 2015 and was hoping that Atlantis will do their NZ/Australia cruise that year. I'll have to look up info on the Princess cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven and Daniel, what a great Princess cruise that is going to be. I am so jealous ;). that's a great double celebration cruise. Birthday and your upcoming 24th anniversary too! :D the port stops sound wonderful too. Where do you leave from? Let us know how it goes as the cruise day arrives.
