THE MEDITERRANEAN

MEDITERRANEAN & EUROPE

As well as being the largest inland body of water in the world, and stretching over 3 diverse continents, The Mediterranean is the world’s second most popular cruising region. And it’s not difficult to see why. Cruising there is rewarding in so many ways – culturally, educationally, visually, architecturally, and historically, as well as from a culinary viewpoint.

There really is something for everyone on a Mediterranean cruise holiday.

Choose from a vast array of beautiful sun kissed beaches, or soak up the culture in some of Europe’s most fascinating and historic cities.

A Mediterranean cruise gives you the opportunity to see everything this part of the world has to offer, it is also one of the best value ways to see and do it all.

Our range of exclusive cruise and stay holidays gives you the opportunity to take in a number of fascinating sights and experiences with a minimum of hassle.

The sheer cultural and physical diversity of the USA makes it one of the most intriguing places in the world; there’s so much to see and do. Go to a jazz music festival in New Orleans, get a taste of rock n’ roll in Memphis, soak up the party atmosphere in Las Vegas, visit iconic landmarks in San Francisco, and marvel at the stunning scenery of California.

With so many places to choose from, there really is something for everyone.

So, whether you love shopping, relaxing on the beach, touring or exploring cultural hotspots, a cruise holiday to the USA won’t disappoint.

If you’re looking for winter sunshine and the chance to visit several islands in one trip, a Caribbean cruise is the one for you.

With its white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters and magical coral reefs, it’s no wonder it’s known as paradise on Earth. This truly is a “must-see” location, and what better way to discover these spectacular islands than by taking a cruise holiday.

Top Tip

“

The Caribbean for me is the perfect chill out destination. My favourite island was St Kitts, take a taxi up to South Friars Bay, relax on the beach and do some spectacular snorkelling, you can hire full snorkelling kit for $5 a day.”

AUSTRALIA & NEW ZEALAND

AUSTRALIA

What better way to discover the other side of the world than on a cruise and stay holiday to Australia & New Zealand?

From the comfort of your cabin, you can wake up to a different, “Antipodean”, view every day!

Docking adjacent to the iconic Sydney Opera House in Australia, with the Harbour Bridge as a backdrop, you are ideally placed to indulge yourself in Sydney’s fantastic boutique shops and restaurants.

Nature lovers can explore the natural beauty of the Great Barrier Reef, or sail through the majestic Milford Sound in New Zealand. You can even learn about the Aboriginal and Maori culture of the region at the National Museum in Wellington.

A cruise down under is undoubtedly the most enjoyable way to experience the unique attractions of Australia and New Zealand. Such a vast expanse of territory is best explored from the comfort and convenience of a cruise ship.

Top Tip

“

As soon as you see the Opera House you are in awe of it! Sydney is an amazing city, so vibrant and so easy to get around on foot. Darling Harbour is great with lots of lovely restaurants and bars. As an alternative to the Sydney Bridge walk why not try the Sky Walk round the Sydney Tower? It’s a great way to see the whole of the city.
