A cruise can be unlike any other holiday, and you’re not often lodged in one place you’re constantly moving with stop-offs in various places. The problem with a cruise is that you may really enjoy a certain location, but you can’t hang around and you have to get back on ready for the next stop, which you may not enjoy as much. If you’re going on a cruise this year for the first time, then you should be aware of what to expect. You’re still likely to have a swimming pool a buffet style restaurant and evening entertainment; however, ships can often be crowded, while you should be prepared for a few rounds of sea sickness. Remember cruise ships are huge, and there will be plenty to do, whilst you can stretch your legs in the day and take in different clues rather than just the one.

There are so many different ways to get from one country to another, there are flights, trains, ferries, cars and coaches, and we’re going to be looking into the cheapest transport methods. Driving can be cheap, especially if you have your own economical car, and coach prices can often be higher, because you’re not only paying towards the fuel, you’re also paying for the service of being drive. Depending on the time in which you want to go your travels, you may contemplate flying, and prices really do go up and down. If you’re travelling off-peak there is a good chance you’ll find a good price, but the likelihood is that the ferry will be cheaper. A basic ferry trip with no cabin or bunker can be really cheap, but not many areas are accessible and a typical trip to Holland can take up to 7 hours, so imagine what it would be like heading to countries further south. Cheap travel will always depend on the season, but driving your own vehicle with a group of friend who are chipping in for fuel can be one fo the cheapest methods, and it’s probably our proffered method.

Welcome to our new travel blog, where we talk and discuss with a focus on the new and growing trend of ecologically friendly travel, or greenway travel. This trend has been growing rapidly, in line with the increased awareness of human caused climate change, particularly among young people. Greenway travel offers a way for people to travel in an ecologically friendly way, whether that just means travelling with a minimal carbon footprint, or even offering your labour for free for various ecological works, such as helping endangered species or combating deforestation, whether on land or in the ocean.
