Our cruise experts
Tom Pulford
Thomson Cruise & Med SpecialistHi, Im Tom. I am relatively new to cruising, however in the three years that I have been with Cruisedeals I have been on a huge variety of cruise ships. These include the new NCL Epic, Cunards Queen Victoria, all of the Thomson Cruise ships, the Fred Olsen Boudicca and a few others. The next area that I want to visit is the Fjords and hopefully I will be able to see the Northern Lights. My favourite ship, which I have recently come off, is the NCL Epic, which is as the name suggests EPIC, and Im looking to book it for my holiday next year.

My favourite ship is the Norwegian Gem, I absolutely love the freestyle dining options, I have also been amazed by Royal Caribbeans newest ship the Oasis of the Seas, and I recently had the pleasure of attending the inaugural sailing in Miami. I have also enjoyed Thomson Cruises, P&O Cruises, Celebrity Cruises and Star Clippers.
Pascal Neale
Northern Europe & Caribbean Specialist
Hi my name is Pascal, and I have been working for Cruisedeals, for almost 4 years now. I have been on a few cruises, and for me they have all been by far the best holidays I have ever experienced, from cruising the Caribbean for two weeks to cruising around Northern Europe. My favorite places were Oslo in Europe and Barbados and St Marteen in the Caribbean. My favorite ship is the Ventura, but for the whole the Thomson Destiny and the Thomson Celebration were more enjoyable. Bon Voyage!
Caroline Jones
Mediterranean & Caribbean specialist
Hello, Im Caroline and I absolutely adore cruising. I have worked for Cruisedeals for 15 years and been on over 20 cruise ships including Royal Caribbeans Jewel of the Seas, Norwegian Cruise Lines Norwegian Gem, MSC Poesia, Star Princess, Costa Atlantica, Black Watch all the Thomson Cruise ships. My favourite cruise line is P&O Cruises because of the formalities and being British. And my two favourite Ships are the Oceana & Ventura. My favourite cruise destination is definitely the Caribbean and Bahamas, with spectacular beaches and lots of shops with plenty of bargains.
Paul Sultana
Thomson Cruise and Celebrity Cruise specialist
To say Paul has had a varied career something of an under statement. Paul came to cruisedeals 3 years ago, after working as a holiday rep through Europe, USA and the Caribbean, in the mountains as a ski rep, to the coasts for beach holidays. With 10 years in the holiday industry Paul is happy to help you pick your perfect getaway, from the crisp clear waters of Alaska, to the warm breeze of the Caribbean. Pauls favourite cruise is the Celebrity Equinox with so many ships and cruises to choose from your head can spin, but when it comes to the very best service and the highest level in quality dining, then the Celebrity Equinox is the place where all that confusion ends. It is impossible to cruise on the Equinox, and not relax. If you ever want to feel like a million dollars, then take a walk on the real grass lawn or laze in a Bubble Chair in the Solarium pool lounge or the Aqua Spa area which is an experience not to be missed, all while at sea. What more could you want? Well what about her sister ship, the Celebrity Eclipse, shes new for 2010 and sails right out of Southampton, see you onboard.
