I'd like to start this week with special deals from three popular cruise lines. Several of these offers feature shipboard credit, which can be used towards the purchase of just about anything not included in the upfront cost of your cruise, including alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, spa treatments, boutique purchases and shore excursions. Norwegian Cruise Line is offering Vacations To Go customers exclusive prices plus shipboard credits of up to $220 per cabin on select cruises to Alaska, the Bahamas, Canada/New England, the Caribbean, Hawaii and Europe. Book by July 29, click here for dates and prices. Crystal is offering our customers exclusive rates plus shipboard credits starting at $725 per stateroom on certain last-minute Mediterranean and Black Sea sailings. Click here for dates and prices. Carnival is offering our customers shipboard credits of $50 to $100 per cabin on a variety of upcoming cruises. Plus, some of these sailings also qualify for reduced deposits. Book between July 26 and 28, click here for dates and prices. Carnival is also offering its past passengers new discounts, reduced rates and a free upgrade to the best available cabin within the same cabin type on certain sailings. Book between July 26 and 28, click here for prices. (Note: Past passengers of Carnival's sister companies Costa, Cunard, Holland America, Princess and Seabourn are also eligible for these upgrades and special rates on Carnival.) Viking River Cruises sails the waterways of Europe, Russia, Ukraine, China, Egypt and Southeast Asia on a growing fleet of upscale, modern vessels. This year and next, the company is launching an astounding 14 brand-new ships, collectively called Viking Longships. Named after the gods of Viking legends, six Viking Longships -- Viking Aegir, Viking Embla, Viking Freya, Viking Idun, Viking Njord and Viking Odin -- make their debut in 2012, and eight more -- Viking Atla, Viking Bragi, Viking Forseti, Viking Jarl, Viking Rinda, Viking Skadi, Viking Tor and Viking Var -- will be introduced in 2013. On board a Viking river cruise, you'll enjoy a deluxe stateroom and the amenities of a fine hotel with complimentary wine, beer and soft drinks included with onboard lunch and dinner service. Shore excursions and cultural enrichment activities are also included. The company has several fantastic promotions that will expire at the end of this month. To be eligible, you must book and pay in full by July 31. These three deals apply to travel in 2013: Companion cruises and flies for free from select gateways when you book applicable river cruise vacations in Russia, Ukraine, China, Egypt and Southeast Asia. Companion cruises for free, plus you save up to $1,000 per couple ($500 per person) off round-trip airfare from select gateways on certain European river cruises. Companion cruises for free on departures of Portugal's River of Gold. These two promotions are for past passengers of Viking: Past passengers save $600 per couple ($300 per person) off departures worldwide. Past passengers also save $100 to $200 per person off any Viking cruise. This offer applies to guests who have traveled with Viking within the past two years, and it can be combined with other promotions. For a complete list of itineraries and special offers from Viking River Cruises, click here. Originally founded as the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company in 1837, P&O Cruises literally created the concept of leisure cruising in 1904 and has been the most popular cruise line in Britain since that time. Vacations To Go is proud to be P&O's exclusive representative in the United States, Canada and Central America. To see itineraries and discounts for P&O Cruises' seven ships that cruise the Mediterranean, Caribbean, South America, Northern Europe, Asia, Australia and other destinations, click here. P&O Cruises is owned by Carnival Corporation & plc, the world's largest cruise company. Carnival Corp operates 10 cruise brands -- a fleet of 100 ships with more than 200,000 berths -- with a further 9 ships to be delivered by March 2016. Earlier this year, I announced that Vacations To Go had become a corporate sponsor of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International (DFGF). Founded by famed gorilla researcher Dian Fossey in 1978, the organization is dedicated to the conservation of critically endangered mountain gorillas and their habitats. This week, I want to share an article with you from the latest issue of Vacations magazine, which details the work of the DFGF and its Karisoke Research Center. To read the article in Vacations magazine, click here. Located in Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park, the Karisoke research center employs 60 trackers to monitor and protect 480 mountain gorillas roaming the jungles of East Africa's Virunga Volcano region. Enduring cold and damp conditions, their staff of trackers rescues and rehabilitates injured gorillas and conducts vital research on gorilla behavior and ecology. The DFGF also provides needed jobs, healthcare and educational programs to local communities. For more information about what the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International is doing to save mountain gorillas -- and how other humans can help -- please visit GorillaFund.org. For a list of safaris that include gorilla trekking, click here. To read my trip reports from my safari in Rwanda and Uganda, click here. If you're thinking of taking a cruise and traveling solo, you probably already know that cruise lines charge an extra fee for an individual booking a cabin intended for two. Typically the cruise line starts with the per-person rate based on double occupancy and adds 50-100% to the price for a single-the dreaded single supplement. The good news? Vacations To Go has found or negotiated low or no single supplements on hundreds of prime cruise departures. These great solo deals are updated daily and listed on our site. Click here to see our Singles Discounts ticker now. On Tuesday, June 26th, the Norwegian Star rescued 6 passengers from a disabled sailing yacht in the Atlantic Ocean. Norwegian Cruise Lines reported that Captain Kenneth Harstrom responded to a call from the U.S. Coast Guard at 8am, requesting the Norwegian Star's assistance. The disabled yacht, Avenir, was located 54 nautical miles from the cruise ship headed for Bristol, Rhode Island, when the vessel lost its rudder and could not be steered. The cruise ship reached Avenir at noon and by 1pm the Norwegian Star's crew had all 6 passengers -- three men and three women -- safely on board. Despite the detour, the Norwegian Star continued on its route and arrived in Bermuda as scheduled on June 27th. Click here for discounted rates and itineraries for the Norwegian Star.

I'd like to start this week with two new deals negotiated for Vacations To Go customers. These specials are for new bookings only, subject to availability, and restrictions may apply. Royal Caribbean is offering Vacations To Go customers exclusive shipboard credits of $75 to $300 per stateroom on certain 2012 cruises and cruise tours. Click here for dates and prices. Oceania has slashed rates on a wide variety of sailings departing in 2012 and 2013, with discounts up to 87%. Click here for dates and prices. Cruise ship ratings exist to help customers find the level of quality they want, and are willing to pay for, at sea. Our ratings range from 1 to 6 stars, with 6 stars representing exceptional quality in every way. As a general rule, we do not recommend or represent any ship rated less than 3 stars, but occasionally an older ship with an established cruise line might drop below 3 stars before being sold or refurbished. A 6-star cruise ship is not only the best of the best for sea-going vacations, but in my opinion, it also delivers the highest overall service and quality of any vacation on the planet. Many elements are considered in rating a ship, including the service level (room steward, waiters, purser's desk, etc.), food quality and presentation, the onboard facilities and amenities, and the physical condition of the ship's accommodations and public areas. Some inaccuracy is inherent in the process of assigning a single numerical rating to an entire ship. For example, a vessel might deliver 5-star food service and 4-star entertainment, and a star rating of 4.5 would not perfectly describe either aspect. Many ships change in ratings over time. An aging ship may decline a half-star or more due to physical condition, and then be brought back to its original condition (and rating) by a major refurbishment. We list the dates of refurbishments on the ship profile pages on our site. Personal preference also plays a big part in the perception of a ship's overall quality. After receiving tens of thousands of post-cruise surveys in the past year alone, I can say that even the most experienced cruisers do not agree on a ship's rating. One may weight the dining experience most heavily, while another may be more focused on kid's programs, including facilities and counselors. Still, the imperfect rating system is the best method for comparing one ship to another in the selection process, and you can see all of our ship ratings by clicking here. Our ratings are based on industry standards, the personal experience of our 500+ cruise counselors and managers, and the surveys and feedback we receive from our customers. Today, I've gathered all the best deals according to ship rating, for sailings in the next 90 days. Keep in mind that prices reflect the ship's quality, and whatever rating you select, you'll be getting the best vacation value for your money.
