Are bar prices expensive on a cruise ship?

The bar prices on cruise ships vary from ship to ship depending on the individual cruise line.

Bar prices on board a cruise ship can be broadly similar to those on the UK high street depending on what you choose to drink, however some drinks can be much more expensive than others.

Prices onboard are generally in US Dollars or British Pounds depending on the individual cruise line.

Drinks may also vary between restaurants and entertainment areas and will be added on to your room bill to pay at the end of your cruise.

Some bars may have special offers and happy hours so have a look out for these on board.

Gratuities will also be added on to your drinks bill, this cost will also depend on the individual cruise line and will be issued to the bar person who served you.

Many cruise lines offer All-Inclusive drinks packages allowing you to pre-pay for a set daily fee to include all of your onboard refreshments and alcoholic drinks. These types of packages are worth considering if you feel that this would be of benefit to you as this can save you money and reduce your onboard bill at the end of your cruise.

Our Cruise Experts are available to advise you on selecting the right cruise line and drinks package for you. Call us today on 0800 197 8050.

Katrina Dawson is great

Katrina Dawson was so helpful and patient. We kept changing our requirements but nothing was too much trouble for her. She made the whole process so easy and followed up with detailed email confirming our booking. Cruise Kings put together a good package at a competitive price. Would definitely use again and recommend

Excellent Service!!!

Excellent service. I arranged a call back and got one at the specified time by Joanna who was polite, friendly and helpful. This is my first time booking a cruise and Joanna was a great help and took the time to explain everything both over the phone and via emails. We were really happy with the package and cannot wait to set sail!

Great service

Laura was so helpful with our cruise and stay booking to Canada and when I had to change the date, due to personal circumstances, she managed to get our booking amended to two weeks later. Many thanks Laura and you are an asset to Cruisekings!
