Cruising the high seas in effortless indulgence
With
the gentle swaying of the sea that seems to lullaby its passengers, a timely
cruise can bring a much-needed calmness, even to the weariest of travellers.
Just imagine, spending days at sea in complete solitude, staring at the
vastness of the open ocean with nary a thought of one’s daily troubles. Days
full of exciting possibilities with nowhere to be, no one to see, and best of
all, no distractions - a complete cruise-cation to celebrate life.
In
the past decade, cruises have become one of the most popular ways to relax and see
the beauty this world has to offer. With its unique destinations,
cost-efficient rates, and state-of-the-art ships, it comes as no surprise that
cruising continues to gain popularity, especially among Filipinos.
This
year, Star Cruises announced that its 269-meter cruise ship, SuperStar Virgo,
will homeport again in Manila for the summer months from March to May. With absolutely
no visa requirements, the 6-night SuperStar Virgo cruise offers two travel
destination packages. The first package will start at the Manila port then a
day will be spent on the high seas. The next two days will be dedicated to
seeing Naha in Japan, and Keelung in Taiwan. The fifth day will be on the high
seas again, and then the cruise will head back to Manila on the sixth day.

The
second destination package starts at the Manila port followed by a day cruising
the high seas on the way to Ishigaki, Japan, on the third day. The fourth day
will be spent seeing the beauty of Keelung, Taiwan, then to the high seas on
the fifth day, and then back to Manila on the sixth day.
Besides
the great destinations, and interesting land tours, a lot of people miss out on
the fact that the SuperStar Virgo is itself, a giant floating destination.
Packed with entertainment facilities, exquisite dining outlets, and duty-free
shopping, the cruise ship has just about anything one could ever need or want.
The
nightly live performances on the SuperStar Virgo showcases some of the world’s best
singers, acrobats, and magicians, set to tickle ones imagination. What’s more, the cruise offers various options
and thematic activities fit for the whole family, not to mention, the wide
range of dining outlets, retail shops, relaxation, and entertainment
facilities.
The
huge pool and giant slide continues to be a top favourite of passengers. Imagine
sliding and splashing in the pool on top of a cruise ship, right in the middle
of the ocean. And what better way to enjoy an unobstructed view of the perfect
sunset gracefully going down the horizon, then to see it on the viewing deck.
Cruising
offers the perfect vantage points to take photos of the endless sea complimented
by the clear blue sky. It features an unspoiled canvass showcasing the
breath-taking magnificence of nature’s beauty. Savor the various sights, sounds, and even the
smell of crisp clean air over a cup of freshly brewed tea or coffee, while basking
in sweet retreat, solitude, and surrender.
