Winter (December to February) is also a favorite, with cooler evenings and fewer crowds, perfect for those who enjoy mild temperatures. Summer (June to August) can be very hot, but if you enjoy fewer tourists and great deals, it might be the right time for you.

Drinks, optional excursions, tips, and personal expenses are usually not part of the package. Some luxury cruises do offer all-inclusive plans with beverages and special services, so it’s worth checking the details of your specific ship.

Don’t forget a swimsuit if you plan to relax by the pool on board, and a smart casual outfit for evening dinners. A small backpack is also useful for carrying water, cameras, and personal items during excursions.
