It's not hard to get into the Christmas spirit right from the start, as ships are trimmed from stem to stern in festive holiday decor, complete with wreaths, holly, mistletoe and, of course, Christmas trees, which often even decorate the ship's mast. It's not uncommon to see Yuletide carolers strolling the decks singing favorite holiday tunes, or waiters wearing Santa hats. Seasonal entertain
ment abounds, as passengers may enjoy themed production shows, live music and films during the voyage. Passengers can also attend midnight mass and inter-denominational church service.
A special Christmas dinner features traditional favorites such as roast turkey or goose, and passengers will enjoy a range of seasonal sweet treats such as gingerbread mousse, mincemeat pie, chocolate Yule logs and special Christmas cookies.
With kids out of school, holiday cruises have become a popular getaway for families. And to keep younger passengers busy, youth counselors provide a wide array of activities including parties, sing-a-longs and arts and crafts classes, where they can create ornaments to decorate the ship's Christmas tree. Junior cruisers can also participate in an endearing holiday play, which they perform for passengers. On Christmas day, Santa Claus makes a surprise appearance, bringing joy (and gifts) to each child on board.

Worldview Travel is Cruise Freek Forum's official travel agency for this cruise offering.
Christmas cruises and New Year's Eve cruises are among the most popular of the year. It is to your advantage to book early to secure your cabin for this extraoridinary chance to be onboard for both without booking a back to back holiday cruise.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THIS CRUISE AND TO SEE PHOTOS OF GRAND PRINCESS AND THE PORTS OF CALL PLEASE VISIT:
WHY BOOK A GROUP CRUISE WITH CRUISE FREEK FORUMS?
1) No forced socializations! We will certainly organize Meet and Greets and other such activities if there is enough interest, however, you are never required to attend. Likewise, you may select your dining time and table size just like if you were booking an individual reservation. It's your vacation, it's your time!
3) Reliable, dependable, trustworthy travel agents to make booking your cruise a pleasure. Unless there is a scheduling conflict, our assigned travel agent will be escorting the group to aid with any onboard requirements that might arise. The assigned travel agent for the 2008 Grand Princess Holidy Cruise is Cruise Freek Forums' own Host Bob (Bob DeAgazio of Worldview Travel which is a Virtuoso agency)
4) The "other" boards usually don't offer group holiday cruises, reasoning that prices are too high and most people won't book. We've often found this to be a very strange argument considering holiday cruises are among the most popular of the year and often sold out long before the sailing date. Why not join the group that gives you want you want, when you want it!
