Costa Cruises

It is a truism that Italians are well-known for their fondness for children so you can rest assured they also will be exceptionally well looked after on a Costa Cruise.

The Costa Cruise Kids' Programme runs three activity sessions: morning, afternoon and night, for children from 3-17 where young ones can enjoy a wide range of entertainment such as treasure hunts, juggling lessons, face-painting or playing volleyball.

Costa Cruise children's on board programmes are all run under the supervision of a qualified team of staff, so parents can relax knowing their children are in very safe hands.

And, of course another truism being an Italian company food is paramount on a Costa cruiseline vessel. Exceptional Italian cuisine is standard on Costa cruises as all Costa cruise ships offer club restaurants with menus devised by Michelin-Star Italian chef Ettore Bocchia across the fleet.

With such a wide range of restaurants on a Costa Cruise, meals can be enjoyed in many ways, formally in the main restaurant with you dressed to the nines or at the midnight buffet, or you have the option of dining more casually by the poolside, al fresco. Or perhaps you would like to join other guests at a Costa Cruise Gala Dinner.

Costa Cruises offers departures from almost 50 ports worldwide on 100 itineraries in Northern Europe, the Baltic Sea, the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, South America, the United Arab Emirates, the Far East and the Indian Ocean. And amongst these cruises Costa offers 240 eco-tourism excursions, specialising in guided tours, visits to parks, oases and nature reserves.

With such extensive itineraries, it's no surprise to learn that Costa Cruises covers 250 separate destinations with its core destinations being the Mediterranean, the Far East, Dubai and the Caribbean. In fact, the company has spearheaded cruising from Dubai, Mauritius, China and Singapore. Costa Cruises is one of the only cruise lines to offer Mediterranean cruises throughout the year.

Almost all Costa Cruises are fly and cruise holidays with departures for UK travellers mainly from London airports, however flights from regional UK airports are available at a supplement.
