Cruise ships are known for pushing all the boundaries of normality and there seems to be no stopping her. Well, maybe an iceberg, but even this can be easily avoided with technology these days. From the Titanic until today, they have become real floating cities, residential-shopping-sports-cultural complexes, where nothing is missing that land has to offer. And here are 12 examples of the most prestigious cruise ships in the world that confirm it.
The most prestigious cruise ships in the world are a special category of ships that can easily stand alongside the most prestigious hotels. They offer a special kind of experience, which is not for everyone, but with everything they have to offer - from cinemas and dance halls, swimming pools, casinos, shopping centers, amusement parks, restaurants, bars, clubs, terraces, promenades, fitness centers, sports fields... - they seem like a sea disease and other fears as tiny as the people ashore from the top of their deck.
