Creator's Key Takeaways

Ocean cruises usually have a lower initial fair but charge extras for specialty dining, drink packages, excursions, and gratuitities.

If you prefer budgeting in advance, river cruises might be the best choice for you.

If you're comfortable choosing and paying for extra separately, ocean cruises provide great value.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Choose river cruises if you prefer budgeting in advance with most expenses prepaid.
Choose ocean cruises if you are comfortable paying for extras separately for potentially greater value.
