Teen cruises??????????

Question

My family always wanted to go on a cruise. I'm all for it and all but I need a cruise that I (a teen) could roam the ship by myself without being treated like a little kid. And also I really want like a teen niteclub not like a hangaround place but a dance get loose party. Which cruise should I choose??(Carnival, Royal Carribean, disney etc.) THanx and if you could tell me the name of the ship that would be great.Thank You sooooo much.

Answer 1

Not Disney the whole thing is little kids...

idk i dont know

Answer 2

At your age( teenager) I think that unless you want to play with Disney character you should rule out Disney.

All of the cruise lines have programs for kids and some have special areas on their ships for the kids to hang out.  The programs are divided by age so those kids who are age 3 to 6  are together, those 7 to 11 may be together and then those 12 to 15 and those 16 to 17 are grouped together.  There are professional staff person on the ship to plan activities and supervise you in the special areas of the ship.

All of the cruise lines call their programs by different names (like Camp Carnival, or Norwegian's Kid's Crew) but they essentially do the same things, provide activities for you on the ship.  Royal Caribbean cruise line calls its kids programs Adventure Ocean and the cruise line has an area, including a teen disco called Fuel, on its ships.  There are special areas of the ship reserved just for the teens. the teen club is open until 2:00AM so you can hang out all evening.

This is from the Royal Caribbean web site:

" Our Teen program isn't some structured set of classes or rules. We know you're almost an adult, and it's your vacation, too. So we give you the freedom you deserve. You can join events all day, or come and go as you want. We've got great laid-back hangouts where you can just chill with your new friends. Some of our ships also have teen-only clubs where you can dance, listen to music or just hang out.

Activities Teens might enjoy include:

Theme Nights

Show up in your whitest whites at "Dusk" and paint the town red... and purple... and green at our "Warehouse" theme night.

Hours

I suggest that you go on Royal Caribbean. Its a better cruise line than Carnival and more appropriate for a teen.   AND Royal Caribbean ships have much more activities and things to do on the ship. Things like the rock climbing wall, roller skating, ice skating, basketball, mini-golf, and the surfing simulator on the new Freedom class ships. The best ships to go on are the RC's Freedom and/or Voyager class ships. They are the most fun.

Look at their features on these web sites:

Answer 3

If you are 15 or under, you will LOVE Disney.  We've done it 5 times.   I'd go again tomorrow...... If you are active - then don't do Royal Caribbean unless you do one of the newer bigger ships.  Their smaller/older ships have rock climbing and shuffle board.  Not even basketball.  Our clients like Carnival because of the water slide.    Let me know if you want met to check out and dates or rates

Answer 4

You should definately choose Royal Caribbean. They are amazing. I am 13 and turning 14 on July 7th. We are going on our 4th cruise on July 6th. It will be our 3rd cruise with Royal Caribbean. On every cruise that I've been on, I've never been treated like a little kid. The Royal Caribbean teen program is amazing. Not to mention, their ships are amazing, expecially their Voyager and Freedom class ships. I would definately recommend you go with Royal Caribbean. They are the best.
