Create More Tales to Tell

Princess has something for each family member, from the young to the young at heart.
Whether traveling close to home or to destinations around the globe, families can create memories together on board and off when sailing with Princess. Adventures abound with their dedication to ensuring special experiences with onboard amenities just for families and excursions that combine culture, history, and fun while exploring new locales.
Princess offers immersive excursions with its award-winning tours for all ages, including many hands-on opportunities and special features for young guests ages 3-to-12. Hear their shouts at a whale sighting, enjoy a tranquil day of fishing with family, and feel the exhilaration as you canoe through glassy waters in Alaska or swim with dolphins and stingrays in the Cayman Islands. Not only are these memory-making experiences, but they’re all thoroughly kid-approved.
Multigenerational families can even create their own personal excursion itineraries exploring with just each other with private vehicles and drivers and guides at the ready.

Princess brings that same level of exploration off the ship and on to the ship. Families can enjoy stargazing on the top deck and an indoor planetarium. There’s the fun of an interactive splash pad with a whale’s spout spraying guests at the Reef Family Splash Zone on Caribbean Princess®. An all-ages game zone features oversized backyard games and introduce kids to the wonder of theater with Broadway-level stage shows. And watch for Stanley the Bear to show up throughout the voyage for story time, bear games, crafts, and photo ops.
On board, families will explore regional flavors inspired by the places they visited, like fresh seafood in Alaska and Canada & New England and jerk chicken in the Caribbean. Take a ukulele lesson in Hawaii or learn the steel drums in the Caribbean. Meet National Park Rangers in Alaska or naturalists in Costa Rica to hear what makes a destination special from those who know it best – locals.

I love the soft sandy beaches, the clear blue seas and the warm sun above while reading a book or watching my children play! I also love having adventures such as zip lining through the Costa Rica Rainforest or snorkeling of the coast of Aruba with the the fish surrounding you!
