What a fun and relaxing (or maybe not so relaxing depending on how many excursions you book) way to spend 1, 2 or more weeks. Cruise travel is very safe but there are some health issues to consider. Health Canada and the Committee to Advise tropcial Medicine and Travel (CATMAT) has written an entire statement on cruise travel and guidelines for travel health professionals to advise travellers who are planning a cruise. Our goal is to help you enjoy your cruise adventure.
