Ambassador Cruise Line reveals Brits’ favourite romantic holiday activities
Guests can benefit from the fantastic Turn of Year offers on 2023/24 sailings, including up to 30% off selected sailings, complimentary onboard credit and 50% off the Explorer Drinks package
It’s no secret that travel has the ability to bring couples closer together – the dedicated time spent on holiday enjoying each other’s company is sure to increase intimacy and connection.
Ahead of Valentine’s Day, Ambassador Cruise Line conducted a survey of 2,000 Brits to discover the most romantic activities that people enjoy whilst travelling. While the results varied across genders and age groups, the top voted activity across all demographics was watch the sunrise / sunset together (51%) – which is often best experienced in a coastal town or while sailing on the ocean.
The overall second favourite was holding hands (26%) while holidaying – whether it be while sightseeing in a new city or walking along the beach hand in hand.
In close third equal came flirting over dinner (24%) and kissing (24%). Additional popular romantic holiday activities included enjoying a hot tub together (17%) and having a picnic (15%).
Ambassador, the premium value no-fly cruise line offering the warmest welcome at sea, is encouraging Brits to ditch the roses and chocolate and instead give the gift of travel to their other half this Valentine’s Day – with guests able to benefit from the range of fantastic Turn of Year offers valid until the end of February.
Phil Gardner, spokesperson for Ambassador Cruise Line, says: “Holidays provide the perfect opportunity for couples to reconnect and reignite their passion for one another, while discovering new and exciting places.
“This Valentine’s Day, we want to encourage people to swap the typical gifts for a cruise holiday with their other half instead – we are confident that a sailing with Ambassador will provide ample opportunity to take part in romantic, meaningful couples activities.
“Gaze over the horizon at some of the most incredible sunrises and sunsets in the world, walk hand in hand while discovering new destinations and get your flirt on over dinner at one of our many on board restaurants serving outstanding international cuisine.”
Ambassador has extended its Turn of Year offers for sailings departing from 03/04/23 – 04/01/24 until the end of February, offering up to 30% off selected cruises including the Grand Round the World sailing.
