In today’s ever-changing world where people are travelling more and being more adventurous, cultural awareness is becoming an increasingly important concept.
Being culturally aware means being respectful of the ethics, lifestyles and beliefs of a community. When you travel you encounter a wide range of different cultures and being respectful of local customs is a vital part of being part of the community, no matter how long, or short the time you spend there.
Let’s take a look at some of the top cruises that can help you to become more culturally aware that are on offer.
World cruises
It goes without saying that if you plan on doing a world cruise then you will certainly find yourself visiting a wide variety of countries from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean, Asia to Australia and even Africa. The length of the cruise that you take will determine just how many different countries, and cultures you can experience.
Oceania offers a 33-night world cruise that starts in Miami and takes in a number of European destinations both familiar and less visited. These include Spain, Portugal, France, Scotland and Belgium. As a result of the route that it takes, it also stops in Bermuda before heading to the European continent from the US, finally ending in Southampton. If you want to learn more about the culture of many European countries with a few extras thrown in, then this is a great choice.
