Cruise comparisons

Is there a good cruise comparison site out there? I have found a cruise I am interested in, but it is time consuming going to the the different agents.
I looked at travelsupermarket, but it did not compare prices, just tried to sell a cruise
Thanks

Try www.cruisecompete.com it a site where travel agents complete with one another for the cruise you have selected. It normally can take a few days to get all the feedback.0

I then to use cruise.co.uk or thomascook.co.uk to get an idea of price and then phone up. The websites are good as you can select specific cabins and get exact prices and they are up to date with the latest offers from the cruise companies. Ive usually got Gills Cruises on the phone to beat the online prices found on these two websites and to date havn't met anyone on board the cruise who has paid less than we have.
The margins made by most online or telephone based cruise companies can be extremely low so the possibility of big savings is usually pretty slim.
The forums on cruisecritic.co.uk and cruise.co.uk can also be a good place to look for bargains others have achieved.0 -

If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.0
