With the fluctuating exchange rate of the Euro, couples looking to get the most for their money while honeymooning in Europe will appreciate the value of cruising. With only minimal shoreside expenses such as souvenirs, honeymooners will find that planning a cruise is a proven money-saver as well as being a stress-reducer.

Comparisons of a land tour versus a cruise vacation will show that a savings of up to 30 percent can be had by booking a 7-day Mediterranean cruise over a 7-day deluxe escorted land vacation. Typical expenses such as accommodations, transportation between cities in Europe, food, entertainment and tours should be looked at. Estimated costs for a honeymoon couple total $5,200 for a 7-day cruise vacation in a balcony stateroom and $7,400 for a deluxe escorted Europe land vacation.

More and more honeymooners are realizing that cruising, especially in Europe, is an incredible value. Waking up in a new port each day without having to pack and unpack - as well as avoiding the transportation hassles - is proving to be a big draw for couples who want to have the European honeymoon they thought was out of reach. Cruising means you'll be pampered with fabulous cuisine, amenities and entertainment while being able to better plan your expenses while honeymooning. Shore excursions can be reserved in advance - although there are plenty of ports where romantic strolls through town or on the beach can be had for no additional expense.

To meet the increasing demand for European holidays, diverse cruise itineraries and great savings on premium cruise vacation experiences are available for the 2007 Europe season. Experience a European cruise in the fall, and you'll get not only wonderful weather, but incredible savings as well! Itineraries include such fabulous ports of call as the Baltic, Scandinavia, Norwegian fjords, Great Britain, Italy, Spain, France, Croatia, Greece, the Meditteranean and the Black Sea.

From picking a ship, to selecting the itinerary that you'll love, to choosing the stateroom that is appropriate for your budget as well as your destination - there are many variables when choosing a cruise. Your honeymoon travel specialist should be knowledgeable about cruising and be able to confidently present choices for your honeymoon based on your wishes.

Cruising is a great way to experience the many countries of Europe. It's also a wonderful way to help you plan return anniversary trips to your favorite ports.
