Hi all,

I'm looking at booking a cruise, and cruise 1st (who also have a channel on Sky) have a cruise, hotel and flight package that I'm really interested in.

My question is, has anyone ever used them? If so, how was it?

Check that transfers are included.

Check that they are both ABTA & ATOL bonded.

most cruise companies offer similar prices but i would give https://www.cruise.co.uk a go and also cruise 118 have been good for me.

I go on lots of cruises and have used both above numerous times

One of the cheapest and best is https://www.vivavoyage.co.uk They are an American company and have a UK agency.

Sorry, not used Cruise 1st but they do seem reputable (I think they are owned by Royal Caribbean). I use IgluCruise.com and have always had a good price and no problems, only been on 5 cruises though.

Just be careful with iglucruise though, three years or so ago we booked through them for a cruise we really wanted, deposit paid, booking confirmed etc or so we thought, we were actually on a wait list for when extra cabins became available unfortunately, according to Iglu, none did.

We ended up booking the same cruise (properly) through the Co Op and getting our money back from Iglu

Thanks for the information.

I was drawn to this one as they are doing a package which consists of flights, transfers, a cruise around Abu Dhabi, Oman and Dubai with tickets to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and a hotel for the race weekend.
