Cruises were once seen as an ultra-luxury reserved for foreigners — but not anymore! Today, more and more Indians — from newlyweds to multi-generational families — are choosing cruises over regular beach holidays or city tours. Why? Because it’s hassle-free, safe for kids and seniors, and every day feels like a new adventure — all while you unpack just once!
As an Indian travel agency with over a decade of cruise expertise, Mauzee Holiday knows exactly how to craft cruise packages that fit Indian tastes, dietary needs, and your dream destinations — whether you’re sailing the Arabian Sea from Mumbai or exploring the islands around Singapore and Malaysia.
