Soccer fans all over the world are counting the days to the World Cup held this year in South Africa. Spaces are filling up rapidly on the MS Noordam and the MS Westerdam, Holland America cruise ships sailing into Cape Town on June 10. They will leave Cape Town and sail to Durban and Port Elizabeth, then return to Cape Town for the last 2 weeks of the event.

The cruise ships can accommodate more than 4,000 guests. Each guest will attend at least one of the matches held in Cape Town, Durban, or Port Elizabeth. Airfare to specified matches in Johannesburg, Rustenburg, Polokwanem, and Tshwane/Pretoria is also provided.

Guests return to the safety and fine accommodations after an exciting match and do not have to wrestle with the hustle bustle of the crowds attending the World Cup. The cruise lines offer a range of restaurants, clubs and bars as well as the concierge services afforded to the deluxe suite and penthouse guests. Holland America takes security very seriously; their specially trained staff will work 24 hours providing the maximum security on board and during transfers and shuttles.

Make the summer vacation one to remember, but be quick about it. Cabins won’t be available for long to the greatest soccer event of the year.

Whether you are looking for an affordable option for incentive travel packages or are in search of the ideal venue for a wedding or corporate event, group cruises are an option that should not be overlooked. Cruises offer a variety of benefits to both the event planner and the cruise participants and usually provide significant cost savings over land-based events.

Because cruises offer a contained environment with meeting and event facilities, meals, beverages and entertainment, planning group cruise events is generally much simpler and more convenient than planning events that take place on land and require separate planning for each event component. Further, because most meals, drinks and onboard entertainment are included in a single, all-inclusive price, participants and the event host both benefit from predetermined costs without the concern of incurring significant additional expenses during the event.

Cruises travel to exotic locations and provide a relaxing, stress-free break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. While exploring port cities or spending time on the ship between stops, there are abundant entertainment and activity options, or participants can simply choose to lounge by the pool, receive luxury spa treatments, shop or relax in their rooms, which allows for travelers with a variety of travel styles or preferences to all enjoy their cruise experience.

To make planning group cruises even more convenient, planners should try out the group cruise planning tool available on Seasite.com and will find an abundance of other helpful information on the site as well.
