Visiting Grand Turk Cruise Center On A Budget

By Marcie Goodman


When planning to travel with the family, it is best to work on your budget. Going for a cruise may be expensive and can also be very affordable if cost saving tips is followed. Whether you want to cruise to the Caribbean or the Grand Turk Cruise Center, it is important to plan well so as to have an enjoyable holiday without stress.

During the course of your cruise, learn to stick to the freebies along the trip. These include free activities for you and the children. Depending on the ship, these may include live music, pools, movie theatre and even miniature golf. Money suckers like the spa, casino or the ship`s shops are places to steer clear of.

To save on booking costs, take an inside cabin. The balcony or land facing cabins are very expensive yet you will spend very little time inside them. You can take the ocean side cabin and spend all the day by the rail and enjoy the outside and other activities aboard. When travelling with a baby who naps a lot during the day, you may be forced to have a cabin with a balcony for the breeze during the day as you keep watch over the baby.

Another tip on saving on your trip is to buy prepaid soda cards. This way you save on drinks for the whole family every day. You can also stick to the coffee, tea or lemonade offered by the ship as a complimentary service. Have fun while keeping your money with you.

If the ship has many short excursions along the trip, you can skip some. It is very expensive visiting every stop it docks, however some places a must visit. Places like Grand Turk has a wonderful cruise center and one can enjoy at very good rates. By staying on the ship you will avoid the worries of being left behind or being late for the departure. At times it is best to do your own excursions or use third party vendor since those organized by the ship are expensive.

Going for a cruise as a group is another good idea. This way, you will get a discount on the booking. Get a group from anywhere, a club, work colleagues, school or just a simple formed group for the trip. The recommended size is 16 even though travel agents can lower this for you. The cabin rates reduce with the incremental cabin you book within the group.

It is recommended that you book using a travel agent in order to get the best rates. But the hotel and airline tickets you should do by yourself online, this is much easier and convenient. An agent will answer your questions and guide you on the best deals available and even beat those good deals you see online.

When planning your dream cruise be prepared and ask all the questions that may be bugging you. Places like Grand Turk Cruise Center will offer you so much for your vacation. And that good trustable agent will advice you about each port, what activities to do at every port and which ones to avoid. This way, you will end up saving so much and enjoying your cruise.
