Reasons you should celebrate your birthday on a cruise

Hip, hip, hooray!

Published on 03 Feb 2020


Birthdays are a big reason to celebrate. And doing so on a cruise is both memorable and exhilarating. Celebrate with friends and family, enjoy once-in-a-lifetime excursions, marvel at the fantastic on board entertainment, or simply sit back, relax and enjoy your time at sea.

You can pamper yourself

Fancy a deep-tissue muscle massage? A sea lavender and samphire body polish? Or simply a manicure and pedicure? There is no better excuse than your birthday to truly pamper yourself and with Regent Seven Seas Cruises, you’ll embark on a journey of tranquillity. The Serene Spa & Wellness™ offers signature services and an indulgent collection of therapies sourced from regions across the globe. What a dreamy way to celebrate your birthday!

Bring the whole family

Birthday cruises are better surrounded by the ones you love. What could be better than travelling the world with your significant other, friends and family? Princess Cruises make it easier to bring families together with their connecting staterooms. With 87 additional connecting staterooms, 174 new connecting doors, you can share even more of the excitement of your cruise, while keeping the whole family together.

Decorate your cabin

Go all out with décor in your stateroom; add banners to your cabin door, decorate with balloons or sprinkle confetti – let everyone know it’s your birthday! You never know, you may receive a special birthday surprise.

Enjoy unique excursions

Cruises offer the perfect opportunity to try something new. Hike through the mountains of Hjørundfjord, go kayaking in Ålesund, and embrace the beautiful scenery as you dog sledge through Tromsø or snowmobile in the Arctic. All these excursions (and more!) are available on a Hurtigruten cruise.

Be entertained all day, every day

Entertainment goes above and beyond on a P&O cruise, with incredible performances including West End and Broadway musical hits, dance troupes, cabaret acts and much, much more. Celebrate your birthday in style at one of the infamous black-tie evenings where you can dress up in your most elegant attire, if you so wish.

Dine on delicious food

Food glorious food! Celebrity Cruises offer a whole host of speciality restaurants and the largest wine collection at sea, providing you with the best culinary experience on your birthday. Sail on an Edge class ship and you’ll get to experience Le Petit Chef. An immersive, mind-blowing fusion of entertainment, Let Petit Chef brings your tabletop to life with an animated character who appears beside your plate and prepares each of your courses right before your eyes.
