Cant afford next years cruise?

One and a half million Britons will take a cruise in the next twelve months and if you pick your holiday, and your ports of call carefully, budget sensibly and use all the ships facilities to the full, you can really benefit from your frugal nature. Here’s an example – the expensive eurozone becomes considerably less so if you take a cruise like the one week offer on Fred Olsen’s Balmoral which is reduced from £1,300 to just £400 for an inside cabin sharing. It sails from Dover so you don’t have to pay airport taxes and visits La Rochelle, Bilbao, Corunna and Cherbourg. All meals are included in the price and if you don’t go for expensive excursions you can sightsee each of these ports for free on foot, and buy the ingredients for a picnic in each one from quaint local French and Spanish shops instead of expensive restaurants.
