Clothing
Light, summer clothing is a must for cruises to warm-weather destinations while more durable wears will make sense on an expedition cruise.
Some cruise lines might have a dress code so you should consider this and pack accordingly and be prepared to dress for dinner if sailing on a more formal cruise. Most cruise ships have laundry facilities on board allowing guests to refresh their wardrobe if needs be.

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
Mrs Erswell / May 2024
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!
Mr Peacock / May 2024
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!
