1. Murder Mystery
Murder mystery cruises are always a treat for cruisers looking for a holiday with a difference. Usually spread over the course of a week, you'll be able to relax back but also have that great mystery to nibble away at as you sunbathe. Definitely an experience like no other and certain to keep curious cruisers entertained.

2. Games Cruises
There's a whole range of different games with their own cruises. Take Mahjong for instance. The ancient Chinese game has enough fans to all get together at sea and have a few plays. From Bingo to Baseball, there are game cruises out there for everything you can imagine.

3. British History Cruise
On the stunning Queen Mary 2, you can be a part of history, literally, by joining in the intriguing discussions onboard. Organised by Cunard, authors and researchers will give talks on modern British history, but these kind of events are sure to sell out, so jump on them quick when they come along.

4. Food and Drink Cruises
Now we're talking. There are all kinds of speciality food and drink cruises. Wine cruises are popular ones, giving the opportunity to sample some of the world's finest grapes whilst pottering about at sea. Or for those with a sweet tooth, chocolate cruises are bound to draw in the crowds. Just make sure you scoff the loot quickly, before it all melts!

5. Cult Cruises
Whether it's the ever-lasting Elvis followers or the Sci-Fi loving Trekkies, there are all sorts of cult cruises just waiting for your call. Expect the full works within the ship, as staff dress up and get involved too. You will feel like you stepped onto the Enterprise itself!
