Father’s Day-Mother’s Day cruise

We often have fleeting moments of appreciation for our parents without actually doing anything special for them.  Here is an idea to combine Father’s Day and Mother’s Day into one big show of appreciation from ‘all the kids’.  That’s right, the adult kids could contribute quite a bit toward the cruise in appreciation of their folks.

It’s a bit late for a Mother’s Day cruise from Galveston in 2013 as Mother’s Day is coming up May 12.  However, Father’s Day is June 16 and there is a cruise that fit in that time frame.  One cruise is a 4-day on the Carnival Triumph that is from the 13th to the 17th of June.

Call Texas Cruise Company anytime at 325-835-7561 to book a Father’s Day/Mother’s Day combo cruise and get as many family members as possible involved.  It would be a great time for a family reunion group cruise and plenty of fun for all  who are going.

We love putting together family group cruises and it is a very good way to have a family group cruise with a minimum of fuss and bother.

We are professionals at putting together a group cruise from Galveston and have a lot of experience with group cruises and cruises in general.  Call Texas Cruise Company anytime at 325-835-7561.

Group Cruises

Texas Cruise Company gets lots of calls for a group cruise from Galveston and other cruise ports and in fact it is one of our favorite things to do.

Cruises from Galveston are very convenient to not only Texas, but a large part of the USA.

There is nothing better than getting a great report back from the group leader that everyone had a good time.

 

Some of our groups include:

  • Girlfriend groups
  • Family groups
  • Special birthdays
  • Honeymoon
  • Company group cruises
  • Church groups
  • Music groups
  • Class reunions and much more.

How to get started with your group

Going on a group cruise from Galveston is very easy when you use an experienced group cruise specialist such as Texas Cruise Company.  Try to designate one of your group members as the group leader, then call us anytime at 325-835-7561.  The group leader will be the primary contact although we are here to answer questions from anyone in the group.  If there are enough folks in your group, you can enjoy special perks called amenities that might include stateroom delivery of wine, cupcakes or fresh fruit, on-board credits, cocktail parties, customized shore excursions and plenty more activities.  We have even arranged for groups to have a private meeting place on-board the ship for those special activities.

And a Galveston cruise is often the best option for a group cruise.  Only unpack once, fine dining is included, on-board ship entertainment is included as are kids programs, fitness centers, massage, spa treatments, and plenty of nightlife.  There is literally something for everyone on a group cruise so every individual interest can be catered to.

Additionally, Texas Cruise Company arranges for the groups to sit together as a group in the fine dining area.  We also arrange for groups in the specialty dining restaurants on the ship.  It’s just what we consider as part of our job to take care of all the details so you don’t have to.  Remember….we’ve done this before and we know what to anticipate!

We also help you take pre-planned shore excursions as a group.

Group members can select the type of cabin they prefer and are not limited to any classification of cabin.  For some of our groups we have reserved the most expensive and luxurious Royal Suite and others have an inside cabin according to their own tastes and budget.

Payment options

Payment options on a group cruise are also easy.  Each person can pay individually and we keep up with all the details.  Group members often have the option of making smaller payments  over a period of time depending on the anticipated sail date.  Texas Cruise Company also keeps up with all the important dates like when deposits are due, final payments, travel insurance and more.  We also make sure you get all the discounts your group is entitled to receive.

Master Cruise Counselors

Texas Cruise Company is staffed only by Master Cruise Counselors as certified by CLIA, the Cruise Line Industry Association.  That hard earned certification means we REALLY know what we are doing.  We take our professionalism seriously and always go the extra mile to make sure your group cruise is special for everyone.

Call us anytime at 325-835-7561
