Travel by Ocean Cruise or River Cruise

Why has cruising become so popular? Because it's fun and is a tremendous value. Let me find the perfect cruise for you! A cruise is your floating hotel, restaurant and transportation from city to city that lets you experience multiple destination in comfort. And you only unpack once. There are ocean cruises that sail the Caribbean, Pacific, Atlantic and Mediterranean on ships the size of an aircraft carrier. It's a floating luxury resort. Then there are river cruises sailing on ships that accommodate approximately 100 passengers. These river cruises sail the large rivers of the world. Including the Mississippi, Rhine, Danube, Amazon and others. I've enjoyed multiple ocean and river cruises. Let me put my cruise experience to work for you and find the perfect cruise to create a lifetime memory.

 It's likely the cruise industry got it's start in 1859. The modern concept of cruising was first popularized by British adventurer and sportsman John K. McGregor. He was exposed to the canoes and kayaks of Native Americans on a camping trip in 1859. Upon his return to the United Kingdom he constructed his own version of a two sided canoe. He nicknamed the boat 'Rob Roy' after a relative of his. The canoe was built of oak planking and cedar then covered with rubber canvas. McGregor cruised around the various waterways of Britain and Europe and authored a popular book about his experiences called "A Thousand Miles in the Roy Canoe". Now you know how cruising got it's start.
