From swimming with dolphins and standing under a waterfall, to taking an African Safari or goldmining in Alaska; the world of cruising caters for the most classic bucket list activity to the most unique. There are an abundance of experiences and activities to be had on a cruise, so how do you know which ones are worthy of adding to your bucket list? Fran Hayden from ROL Cruise explores the top five bucket list activities to do on a cruise – both on board and ashore.
Discover Machu Picchu, Peru
If there is one destination that should be high up on your bucket list to visit, it should be Machu Picchu. Home to the Incas in the 15th century, the citadel lies on a mountain ridge nearly 8,000 feet above sea level, and is one of the most famous relics of the civilization still visible today. Here, intricate stone constructions and epic hilltop views provide the ancient Peruvian experience that you have been seeking. This world-renowned tourist attraction is one of the Seven Wonders of the World and when seeing this enchanting site, you will agree that it is worthy of its iconic status as a symbol of wonder and beauty.
Ride the Magic Carpet with Celebrity Cruises
Cruise lines often cultivate innovative experiences that are exclusive to their brand. Once example is Celebrity Cruises: with the launch of Celebrity Edge on the horizon, the world of cruising can expect to see things that haven’t been done before and that includes the Magic Carpet. The size of a tennis court, and reaching heights of 13 storeys above sea level, it is the world’s first cantilevered floating platform. Majestically situated on the starboard side of Celebrity Edge, it is designed with comfortable seating, a full bar, and space for live music performances – so it truly is a destination itself.
