Norwegian Spirit: Family-friendly vacations to the Caribbean or Med

Snapshot

Norwegian Cruises has taken on the concept of "freestyle cruising" for all of its lines, and the Spirit is no exception. Whether it's the sense of humor that permeates the ship, the numerous child activities or the unrestricted dining hours and activities, the Spirit has become a standard for those who love the hustle and bustle of cruising without the stuffiness.

Who will like sailing on Norwegian Spirit

This cruise is for all age ranges, but it is particularly good for families, as the child care services on board are top notch. From smaller children to exclusive offerings for teenagers, every member of your family is sure to find something to enjoy.

Where Norwegian Spirit sails

This ship is a free spirit, gallivanting about from Alaska to the South Pacific (Bora Bora, Tahiti, Australia, Fiji, Bali, New Zealand) as well as forays into the Mediterranean and Middle East.
