Limited Space still available on Christmas & New Year Cruises

The holidays are getting closer and closer, and the excitement for Christmas and New Year is steadily building. Most people are starting to think about how they will take some time off with their loved ones and relax at the end of the year. But for those of you who fancy a Christmas or New Year’s break with a difference, there are still some spaces left on Princess Cruises’ tropical tours.

There are four tropical cruises on offer, so why not consider spending the festive season with your loved ones in some of the world’s most beautiful surroundings? These limited places won’t be around for ever, so if you want a holiday trip like you’ve never had before, snap them up now!

The Cruises on Offer

There are two great Christmas cruises to choose from with limited spaces still available. One leads passengers through the striking Panama Canal onboard Coral Princess and departs on December 15, and the other leaves on December 17 and travels to the Southern Caribbean on Emerald Princess. There are another two fantastic New Years cruises which set sail on December 29 and 30 to the Panama Canal onboard the ships Coral Princess and Island Princess.

The attraction of holiday tours on a Princess Cruises ship is that you will experience exactly the same festive spirit as you would at home, but in new and spectacular surroundings. The ship is decked out with holiday decorations to really get you in the spirit, and there’s even a Christmas tree on the mast! You’ll hear carolers singing familiar songs throughout the ship, and don’t worry if you think you’ll miss out on snowfall. The ship’s multi-story atriums are set to release a steady fall of snow to get you in the Christmas mood. Princess Cruises have gone to great lengths to recreate a fitting Christmas atmosphere onboard so you don’t miss out. When coupled with the beautiful scenery outside the ship and the calls at a range of fantastic locations, this will be a holiday you’ll never forget! If you want to enjoy the end of the year in style, then a tropical holiday cruise with Princess Cruises is just right for you.
