Sail together, stay connected: Unforgettable group adventures with Princess Cruises

Travel remains one of life’s greatest pleasures. The urge for adventure has become etched into our DNA, with distant horizons fuelling a wanderlust inherited from generations past.

We are all connected to ocean-going travel, and modern seafaring doesn’t come better than sharing the experience with friends and family. After all, enjoying an adventure in good company elevates travel to an entirely new level.

From celebrating a milestone birthday, graduation, or anniversary, to re-kindling old friendships and bonding with new acquaintances, Princess Cruises can provide the perfect backdrop for forging deeper connections and cherished memories.

Alongside great value and convenience for group travel, Princess also goes the extra mile to ensure every individual enjoys a trip of a lifetime.

Princess has long offered an idyllic way to mark life’s most significant moments; it’s why scores of couples tie the knot with onboard wedding ceremonies.

When not cutting the cake, elegant onboard venues play host to golden anniversaries and private celebrations where the glow of life radiates with Princess’ hospitality.

Of course, you don’t need a life event as an excuse. If it’s time for a holiday, then a cruise cannot be better-ed – especially when traveling as a group.

Where else can you enjoy the refinement of home and a blanket uniformity of excellence, while taking in new destinations – knowing that every member of your group will receive the finest food and excursions out there?

Whether you’re planning an itinerary for a family of 12 or a group of old college friends, not a moment goes by without being imbued with meaning and a sense of occasion. If you are the group organiser, it’s certainly a load off your mind.

Princess Cruises knows that it’s not just a coffee or a meal. It’s camaraderie that plucks at your tangy heartstrings, and the cruise line’s mantra provides everything you need to make each occasion unforgettable.

Bond over shared adventures
From the moment you step aboard, a Princess cruise promises elation designed to bring people together. Here you can share the thrill of spotting wildlife on a scenic sea day, or laugh collectively while trying out onboard activities. Trivia games and karaoke nights suddenly become more than a pastime, evocating souvenirs for future recollection.

Dining experiences serve up more than mouth-watering fare, too. Mealtimes provide food for the soul, uniting people through the wonder of new dishes and formalities that hark back to the golden age of Transatlantic voyages.

Princess Cruises excels at offering dining that suits every group’s preferences, whether within luxurious speciality restaurants, sharing pizza by the pool, or enjoying casual bites at the World Fresh Marketplace.

For a truly unforgettable meal, opt for a Chef’s Table experience. This is your chance to enjoy as your travelling companions are treated like Royalty; a curated multi-course dinner paired with fine wines and exemplary service.

Special dietary needs? No problem. Princess ensures that every member of your party is catered to, ensuring meals are a highlight for all.

Spacious staterooms for togetherness
One of the most compelling reasons to set sail as a group or family unit with Princess Cruises remains the exceptional value of sharing staterooms.

Bigger suites with spacious amenities, alongside family-friendly cabins, permit comfort for everyone. You can also request interconnecting rooms for added convenience, while providing enough privacy for when it matters.

And, let’s be honest, waking up to ocean views and stepping out onto a private balcony feels far more special when it’s shared with those you love. Not that you need to sacrifice downtime when cruising as a group. Princess offers a range of wellness activities to recharge your mind.

Some may delve into a spa treatment, while others opt for yoga classes, but that just adds to the conversation when getting together in the evening to watch a foreign sun melt across the horizon.

MedallionClass technology for staying connected
Princess’ MedallionClass® experience makes staying connected with your group effortless and, more importantly, fun.

Employing Princess MedallionClass technology allows you to locate your loved ones anywhere on the ship using the MedallionClass app – without the need to fret when excited youngsters don’t report in, or someone falls asleep while relaxing before lunch.

Meeting in the lounge for pre-dinner drinks? Bagged a table at your favourite dining venue? Getting settled for the evening’s entertainment? The app helps to make sure nobody misses a moment together. The intuitive technology ensures more time for bonding and less time coordinating.

The app can’t provide location information when onshore, but group shore excursions are the perfect way to explore when the ship docks in a new destination.

With a little forward planning, Princess can accommodate any accessibility requirements your group may require, bringing the cobblestone streets of historic Europe to your heels, to name but one location.

The best part? You’re sharing these life-affirming experiences with the people who matter most. And remember – those who sail together, stay together.
