Holland America has recently sent me some brochures offering cruises at incredibly attractive prices. For example, a 14 day cruise including all the typical stops for, let's say, less than $2,000PP. So for me and the Old Lady to fly cross country to Seattle and pay the price, all in, would be less than five grand.
To those familiar, the main variable on a cruise is the relative need to go on excursions and the cost thereof. At some destinations, a reasonable-cost walk or local tour is sufficient, but at others, the stop is a total waste of time if you don't take an expensive tour.
I would be willing to spend a thousand or so for tours, but not much more than that.
Anyone have any insights?
