The line just announced that kids ages 18 and under will now pay 50 percent of the adult rate and kids ages two or younger will travel for free on all voyages.
“Our goal in introducing the new kids rates is to attract families with inquisitive kids who yearn for the rich educational and enrichment focus of Cruise West’s itineraries,” said Dietmar Wertanzl, president & CEO. “Coupled with the informal environment on board our small ships, we offer a cruising experience the entire family will enjoy and cherish for years. Imagine yourself, your kids or grandkids admiring an enormous brown bear searching for food on a nearby shore in Alaska, snorkeling in the Sea of Cortés with playful sea lions, or discovering ancient Callanish dating back to around 3000 BC, often described as Scotland’s Stonehenge.”
Cruise West’s fleet of 78- to 148-passenger ships offers 38 adventurous 4- to 19-night voyages around the world. Choose from nature-focused cruises in Alaska, Sea of Cortés, Panama & Costa Rica, Antarctica, Cocos Island, Galapagos, Scandinavia, the South Pacific and British Columbia; more historical and cultural itineraries in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Mediterranean and Baltic Seas, East Coast Canada and USA; and the gentle, scenic rivers in Europe and the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest.
Rates include most shore excursions, expert guides that lecture on board and lead excursions, and extras like soft drinks, and start as low as $1,199 per person for a four-night cruise.
