Christmas Gifts for Cruisers
Looking for a gift for a Cruise lover?
Assuming that actually booking them a cruise is completely out of the question then we have a few ideas for you!
A Cruise Planner
Our Cruise Planners are very popular and are always well received as a gift because they are so useful.
A Planner is invaluable before, during and after a cruise holiday - it holds all the information you acquire while planning the cruise so that all your reference numbers and contact details are quickly to hand. Other sections include a cruise arc plan, shore day brainstorm templates, packing lists and finally a Diary section to complete while on board.
The Planner eventually becomes a complete Cruise Travel Journal and a permanent record of everywhere you went and everyone you met.
Every Cruise needs its own planner so this is a gift that will always come in handy - in fact most cruisers need a few every year!!
More information on this Planner, which is a special limited edition, can be found inside the Book Shop
The Cruise Planner costs £8.99 but the code CHRISTMAS2020 will give you 20% off when ordered through our Book Shop
2. A Cruise Notebook
We have a whole range of Cruise notebooks, available through Amazon and through our Book Shop, that make lovely little stocking fillers or Secret Santa presents as they all cost less than £5.00.
The A5 notebooks are soft backed with prestige cream paper featuring cruise themed, watermarked pages. These are in a combination of lined and clear formats, making this handy to use for a combination of lists, mind maps and sketches.

3. The Confident portExplorer
This is our #1 bestselling Cruise Book that covers everything you need to know about going ashore on a cruise.
We’ve had brilliant reviews from both first time and really experienced cruisers - there is something of interest for everyone and it makes a great gift! In fact we were super thrilled when Becky Hardy - the editor of Cruise Addicts Magazine -called it A fabulous book for any cruiser and the perfect gift..

5. Cruise Tech
There are loads of useful bits of Tech that every Cruiser would find really useful. Take a look at our Blog on the subject - every picture clicks through to a recommended product on Amazon which make shopping really easy ( and pays towards the costs of this Blog!). Lots of ideas… from an SD card reader to a mini drone - every single item would be very, very welcome under my Christmas Tree!

6. Packing Cubes
Luggage is a very personal thing and difficult to buy for someone else but I am a HUGE HUGE fan of packing cubes so I am going to include some here… this is the set we use ( in fact we have two sets in different colours!) they are particularly useful if you are doing a pre or post cruise stay - it means that you don’t have to disturb all your packing but can just pack for each section of your trip separately . I also admit to feeling very proud of my neatly packed case when I travel hand baggage only - if you do have to open your case for security at the airport it makes you look SOOOO ORGANISED! Much better than all your knickers falling out of the bag as they rummage!! The shoe bag is really useful too -I usually manage to get a pair of shoes in there with all my chargers, plugs and other tech bits so once my shoes are in the bottom of the wardrobe it becomes the ‘Bat Cave’ - home to all these bits you need but just look so messy! The whole set fits neatly into a hand baggage sized suitcase ( if you’re good at Tetris) and there is also set of four cubes the same size that work well in a larger case. This would not be the most exciting present anyone has ever had but it would probably be the most useful!
I hope you’ve found this helpful!
