After a long winter of bone-chilling temperatures and record snow falls, salvation is finally here: spring break! It\u2019s the perfect opportunity to warm up in some of the world\u2019s most fantastic destinations, and there\u2019s no better way to get to them than via a cruise. But not all spring break cruises are created equal. Depending on whom you\u2019re traveling with and what your idea of a good vacation is, the cruise line you sail with can make or break your vaca. But since vacations are kind of<\/em> our thing, we\u2019ve done the research and found the best ones, just for you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Carnival<\/a>

Carnival Cruises<\/p><\/div>\n

If you\u2019re in college:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s not beat around the bush \u2013 you\u2019re here for fun. Midterm exams are over and you\u2019re ready to let loose. A great fit for you is Carnival<\/a>, a cruise line with a reputation for being the most fun at sea. They have loads activities on board, great night life, and travel to super-popular spring break destinations, including Cancun, the Bahamas, and Bermuda.<\/p>\n

Other great options: Norwegian<\/a> and Celebrity<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Disney<\/a>

Disney Cruises<\/p><\/div>\n

If you\u2019re traveling with kids:<\/strong><\/p>\n

You probably already know which cruise line your kids are going to love, and don\u2019t worry \u2013 you\u2019ll love a Disney<\/a> cruise, too. While Disney offers a plethora of attractive activities for kids and irresistibly fun fam-friendly entertainment, they don\u2019t forget about adults. Aboard, you\u2019ll find a quiet adult-exclusive pool, adult-exclusive dining, lounges, and nightclubs.<\/p>\n

Other great options: Royal Caribbean<\/a> and Carnival<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Viking<\/a>

Viking Cruises<\/p><\/div>\n

If you\u2019re trying to avoid kids:<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s no shame in wanting a relaxing vacation devoid of partying 20-somethings and crying babies. Your best bet for peace and quiet is to bookon a small or luxury cruise line that doesn\u2019t offer the vast amenities that larger ships tout (thus, they don\u2019t appeal as much to younger people or families). River cruises, like Viking<\/a>, and sleek Silversea<\/a> ships are a great way to go. Not enough excitement for you? Fleets like Holland<\/a> and Princess<\/a> will offer you more amenities and a relatively more mature crowd, especially if you avoid itineraries that include Cancun or destinations in the Caribbean, like the Bahamas.<\/p>\n

Other great options: Seabourn<\/a> and Regent Seven Seas<\/a><\/p>\n
