passage must be booked through the Cruise Trek office.
This Cruise Trek Adventure was quite different from any we have
done in the last 20+ years. This time, we set sail on one of the
world’s largest ships . . . and it was cram packed with things
to do.
Besides the usual resort-like facilities, there was a rock-climbing wall,
a zip line, an ice rink, and an outdoor aqua theatre. In addition to the
legendary and more progressive entertainment provided by this cruise
line, our ship offered groundbreaking design with seven distinct
neighborhoods built for ultimate enjoyment and entertainment –
Central Park, Royal Promenade, Boardwalk, Pool & Sports
Zone, Entertainment Place, Vitality Spa & Fitness Center, and
Youth Zone.
Our fellow Cruise Trekkers were ready for a totally excellent
adventure!
And they joined in the Caribbean for this jam-packed itinerary of
shipboard activities and exotic island port amusements. It was a
week of amazing fun, celebrating the joys in life, and, of course, our
mutual camaraderie!
Enjoy interacting with special guests and film celebrities!

adventure group shot.
We also has an optional pre-cruise Kennedy Space Center Tour
(KSC). Guided by tour specialists, we explored the world’s
largest launch facility and discover what it takes to launch the space
shuttle from preparation to lift-off.
This optional tour included ~
- Space Shuttle Atlantis ~ This new $100 million
exhibition showcases the priceless, historic shuttle Atlantis
and tells the incredible story of NASA’s 30-year Space Shuttle
Program. Included are multi-media presentations, 60 interactive exhibits,
and high-tech simulators that bring to life the complex systems and
components behind this incredible feat of engineering.
- Launch Control Center Tour ~ Journey inside
the firing room where the last 21 shuttle launches were controlled.
Walk by the computer consoles at which engineers constantly monitored
the launch controls. See the launch countdown clock and large video
monitors on the walls. Enter the bubble room with its wall of interior
windows through which the management team viewed all of the proceedings
below. Re-live the last shuttle launch, Atlantis mission
STS-135, while watching the launch footage in the room where the launch
became part of history.
- Lunch with an Astronaut ~ Get the right stuff at
lunch as we meet a veteran member of NASA’s Astronaut
Corps, have a hot buffet lunch, and participate in a 30-minute interactive
Q&A.
