Thomson Cruises
By Rakesh Gaikwad

Thomson Cruises offer five different ships on which to sail,
all are well equipped, spacious and stylish, each offering
unique qualities depending on the preferences of the passengers.

The newest ship to the Thomson Cruise fleet ‘The Calypso’ is
dedicated to over 16 year olds only, which ensures that who wish
to travel as a couple, single or older family can enjoy their
cruise without young children running around! This also means
that The Calypso is Thomson’s smallest ship which provides a
more personal style of service and reflects the more traditional
approach of cruising, with fixed sittings applied for dinner if
waiter service is required.

Evening entertainment is varied with a choice of live bands,
popular game shows and midnight cabarets as well as quiet
cocktail lounges and bars. The Calypso travels to destinations
‘new’ to Thomson Cruises which are more unusual such as
Sevastopol, Crimea.

A fourteen night cruise which departs from Liverpool, UK aboard
the ship ‘Celebration’ on day one is an ideal for cruise for
those who prefer not to fly prior to joining the ship. The ship
sails through the night to arrive in Waterford, Ireland, for a
full day in which to explore this medieval town famous for its
crystal and glassware. Days three and four are spent at sea
enjoying the onboard amenities which include whirlpools, a
sports deck including basketball and table tennis.

The ship has separate amenities for children with a kid’s zone
as well as duty free shopping, a library and lounges with
internet access for those who wish to keep in touch with the
news! All of this, as well as soaking up the sun can be enjoyed
while cruising in style to Lisbon, Portugal where the ship
arrives in time to spend the morning and early afternoon
discovering the delights of Portugal’s capital city. Passengers
rejoin the ship mid-afternoon and are cruised through the
evening and night to disembark in Malaga, Spain for a full day’s
sightseeing or relaxation.

Day eight sees the ship arriving in Gibraltar, where it is
beautifully warm, with many places of interest to visit,
including Gibraltar’s famous Barbary Apes. The ship then cruises
through the night in style arriving in Casablanca, Morocco just
after breakfast where optional excursions ashore enable the
traditions of this vibrant city to be sampled. An early evening
sailing from Casablanca to Portimoe, Portugal begins the return
journey up the Atlantic coast calling at Porto, Portugal and La
Cormna, Spain for two days of exploration and discovery. Day
thirteen is spent at sea relaxing and enjoying the onboard
amenities. The ship arrives in Dublin, Ireland at breakfast time
on day fourteen and remains in dock for a whole day, giving
plenty of opportunity to sample the delights of this
cosmopolitan city. An overnight sailing brings the itinerary to
a close on day fifteen with disembarkation in Liverpool.

This all time favorite Thomson Cruise is taken onboard Thomson
’s luxurious ‘Celebration’ ship where the days at sea or after a
day’s sightseeing the two-storey health and beauty spa is the
ideal place to indulge in some well-earned pampering.
