Berlitz Cruising & Cruise Ships 2017 by Douglas Ward
If you want a holiday that's hassle-free, virtually pre-paid, and that lets you see lots of places while only needing to pack and unpack once, then you should try a cruise. This best-selling book is the cruise industry bible: it gives you all the information you need to choose the right cruise for you. Meticulously updated every year by cruise expert Douglas Ward, it is divided into two main parts: the first helps you work out what you're looking for in a cruise holiday and how to find it; the lively text and colour photographs describe every aspect of life on board, including safety, the highs and lows of the cruise experience and how to save money. The second part contains unbiased reviews and fascinating detail of almost 300 ocean-going cruise vessels, and grades them on service, food, entertainment and facilities, using an internationally recognised ratings system.
Douglas Ward has been sailing aboard ocean-going cruise ships since 1965. Since 1985 he has been the author of the annual BERLITZ Cruising and Cruise Ships – the world’s most authoritative cruise guidebook – and BERLITZ River Cruising in Europe, first published in 2014. His travels have taken him to over 1.800 ports around the world, and he spent a total of 17 years working at sea (partly as shore excursion manager for a cruise company). "Ive learned about the cruise industry (and ports around the world) from the inside out," says Ward who studied the construction and operation of cruise ships. A veteran of over 6.060 days at sea and more than 1.060 cruises (including 158 transatlantic crossings), he is considered the worlds foremost independent authority on cruising and cruise ships and an industry icon
