Some say a family that travels together, stays together, and we’d like to believe that nothing is truer. With Princess, great emphasis is placed on making traveling together effortless and exciting. There’s something for everyone in the family onboard a Princess ship, with special attention always given to keeping family members of all ages active, occupied, and engaged. Your only job? Making priceless lifelong memories together.

Once you have a family reunion on a Princess vacation, you’ll never go back to the old ways. It’s the perfect place to bring together extended family and even friends or other loved ones in order to indulge in adventure, relaxation, sightseeing, and entertainment. Fun fact: One in four Princess Cruises travelers chooses to mark a special occasion while on board, and it’s no surprise. Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or simply a good old excuse to bring the clan together, Princess will make the moment beyond memorable. As the saying goes: Good food, good mood, good brood. Fine, we made that up ourselves.

By the way, the Princess Celebration Group Program offers incredible perks and flexibility, including exclusive group fares, a dedicated Princess Expert to help you plan everything, Tour Conductor credits, and even customized amenities. We encourage you to take advantage of this one-of-a-kind program that puts family first.

There are a vast number of activities on board for the multi-generational family. Keep both the youngsters and seniors in the adventuring spirit with Discovery^TM Family Tours and Animal Planet^TM shore excursions where they will learn about wildlife and more while having all kinds of fun. Voyage to the Stars with Discovery at SEA^TM is another must-do activity that will take the entire family on an immersive and mind-blowing journey through the universe. Camp Discovery for kids also gives them a chance to make new friends while simultaneously teaching them about the world. It won’t even feel like learning, which is perhaps the best part (shhh, let’s pretend we didn’t say that).

Want even more? One of the best adventure itineraries can naturally be found on a Princess cruise to Alaska, where the entire family can enjoy sledding, fishing, wildlife viewing, kayaking, hiking, and so much more. It’s an experience not to be missed.

Sore muscles are no fun, but spa days are rejuvenating and available. Get pampered with your loved ones at The Sanctuary or book a babysitter to take care of the youngins while you enjoy a couples’ or solo massage and reset body and mind. The experienced and friendly staff at the spa will tend to your every need with a smile. Adventure is always worthwhile, but it’s not a crime to have some me-time and put effort into self-care. After all, you’re on vacation and that means balancing fun with rest. Remember that the next time you find yourself making an excuse to put your needs on the back burner.
