DELUXE CRUISE LINES
In general, these cruise lines offer a high quality product - at a high quality price. Pre-discount, per diem prices range from $400 to $900 per person. Since most people who can afford these cruises have time to travel, the average cruise length is longer than seven days. You will probably have a good time on these ships but it will cost you.   -  Crystal Cruises
  -  Radisson Seven Seas Cruises
  -  Seabourn Cruise Line
  -  Silverseas Cruises

PREMIUM CRUISE LINES
These cruise lines offer a high quality product at a more affordable price. Pre-discount, per diems for these ships will range from $250 to $450 per person. Onboard amenities, and the quality of food and service varies amongst the ships in the fleets so make sure you read both the professional and passenger reviews before selecting a ship or itinerary. Average cruise lengths range from 7 to 14 days in this category and the typical passenger is a veteran cruiser.   -  Azamara Cruises

MASS MARKET CRUISE LINES
These cruise lines provide a good product at an affordable price. Pre-discount, per diems range from $150 to $300 per person. The ships are typically larger than the higher end vessels but they also offer a greater variety of activities (rock climbing, pool slides, etc). Typical cruise itineraries range from 3 to 10 days and you will be traveling with a mix of veteran and first time cruisers.

The quality of food and level of service is typically very good but the onboard experience is more typical of a large land-based resort than a traditional cruise. Don't expect a lot of personal service as you may well be traveling with 3000 fellow passengers.

RIVER CRUISE LINES
These cruise companies offer trips on the rivers and canals of Europe and North America. Many of the vessels are purposefully built for river cruising and as such they are smaller and do not offer the same type of amenities found on a cruise ship (i.e. no pool or gym). Pre-discount, per diems typically range from $250 to $350 per person. The quality of the food and level of service is typically very good and many passengers are likely to be repeat customers. These trips are a great way to take in the local flavor of the area.   -  Europe Cruise Lines
  -  French Country Waterways
  -  GlobalQuest Cruises
  -  KD River Cruises
  -  Peter Deilmann Cruises
  -  RiverBarge Excursion Lines

SPECIALTY CRUISE LINES
These cruise companies offer a wide variety of itineraries and vessels ranging from restored ocean liners and sailing vessels to coastal steamers and ice breakers.

Passengers on sailing trips are usually a bit younger and up for more of a party.
