The Life at Sea Cruises voyage created by Miray Cruises stops in Vancouver, B.C., and visits seven聽continents with stops in 375 destinations.

While many Vancouverites plan on going on a bucket-list trip after they retire, it isn't always an affordable option. 

The price of month-long vacations can get pretty steep, especially if they are located in highly sought-after destinations or include transportation to various cities or countries — and that's where cruising comes in. 

On virtually any major ocean liner, the cost per diem for the journey goes down the longer that you stay at sea. There are a couple of short repositioning cruises up the Pacific coast that offer comparable per diem prices, but generally the longer the voyage the less you pay. 

For example, a with Princess Cruises costs $4,366.24 per person including all taxes and fees. This price works out to roughly $140.85 a day. Similarly, a with Cunard Cruises costs $3,572.61 per person, which works out to a per diem cost of $111.64. 

Not only do these prices include the cost of your transportation on a beautiful five-star vessel, but it also includes meals, entertainment, snacks and lodging. The only thing it doesn’t factor in is alcohol, but you may opt to purchase a drink package that can reduce the cost of your spending.

Life at Sea Cruises offers a unique retirement option

While it won't last the entirety of your retirement, you can spend a whopping three years at sea covering over 130,000 miles with a new option called  by Miray Cruises, owned by Miray International. The voyage takes guests on a quintessential "bucket-list" journey, visiting 13 of 14 "world wonders" — depending on what list of "world wonders" you consult.
