Building An Authoritative Travel Blog

Authoritative blogs seem all the rage at the moment but what exactly is an " Authoritative Travel Blog ?" Well my understanding of the matter is it is a blog that is not only very informative to the readers but that the information comes from authoritative type people in connection with what they are writing about.

Hopefully my articles below will give an insight on travel and travel related experiences from all over the world from many authoritative writers as they have been there and done that.

Articles will be and are published often and this means current travel experiences and up to date places to visit. If you have also visited these places or wish to comment then please do so remembering this blog is intended to family orientated visitors so please be respectful.

I have seen many fears raised through my article site and feel that any traveller today that, for one reason or another, decides against travel insurance then they are possibly being a little short sighted. We do not want our boats to sink but are happy to carry life rafts. travel insurance is a similar idea. We do not wish to ever claim on it but if things go wrong as they sometimes do it is a benifit to have the insurance.

Alaska Family Cruise

By Craig wilson

A Cruise around Alaska can be an amazing experience that parents can easily share with their children. Not only will a visit to Alaska provide your children with a great holiday but also an educational experience on the weather, glaciers, marine life and general wildlife in the many vast areas of natural habitat that Alaska has to offer.

If you are traveling with children and are worried about everyone being fed up, then don't be. There are lots of activities for adults and children so if you want to take part in something the chances are that the children will also be doing something at the same time. There are also onboard sitters to watch your children in the evening

Camp Carnival is available for children on the Carnival Cruise ships. This offers children from the ages of 2-15 the chance to enjoy a range of activities to keep them entertained while you enjoy some of the more adult aspects of your cruise. Camp Carnival is a free service offered by Carnival Cruise lines as part of your cruise. There is also a baby sitting service for a small additional charge in the evenings.

Children aged between 2 and 17 years old can join the Kid's crew on the Norwegian Cruise Lines cruise ships. Each child can enjoy activities appropriate to their age whilst you are then free to relax and enjoy the things that you want to do.

Children's activities include storytelling and magic shows for the younger children and older children can learn to cook or go on a treasure hunt around the ship or ashore whilst you are on an excursion. Teenagers can enjoy special dances and have access to video games. There are other activities available, simply check with the Norwegian Cruise Lines brochure.

Princess cruise lines also have their own kid's club, which also offers educational activities as well as television time so the children can enjoy some cartoons. There is also the opportunity to let the children eat with their new friends at the special children only dinners. This will leave you free to enjoy a quiet meal knowing that your children are having a great time as well. Princess cruise lines also offer a sitter service in the evening so you can enjoy the evening entertainment whilst the kids are asleep.

Royal Caribbean offer families some great options with their Ocean Adventure program offering children a great variety of activities and fun games for children aged 3 to 17 years old. Ocean Adventure doesn't stop there though because they do plan some really amazing family activities for you to enjoy with your child. So you can also have some adult time and join in when you want. All activities are suitable for the children depending on their age as they are placed in groups based on this.

Travelling on a cruise around Alaska could prove to be difficult as would any holiday if the children are bored. By traveling a cruise ship with a children's activity and entertainments program is a great solution so that everyone has a great vacation together as a family.
