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.

Top Tip

“

Croatian gem, Dubrovnik is a must-see port of call. To get the most of your day ashore, set off for a walk around the city walls, the medieval streets are filled with nooks and crannies, fortresses, Baroque churches and historic squares all dating back to the 16th century

USA & CARIBBEAN

USA & CARIBBEAN

From the excitement and sophistication of great cities like Los Angeles and New Orleans, to the bright lights of Las Vegas via the stunning scenery of California and the sandy beaches of Florida, the sheer cultural and physical diversity of the USA makes it one of the most intriguing places in the world.

If it's guaranteed winter sunshine you're after, and the chance to visit several different islands in one trip, a Caribbean cruise offers the best option. The Caribbean is almost tailor-made for cruising, with the islands perfectly spaced to allow passengers to arrive at a new island most mornings.

Most islands also offer an enormous and varied range of things to see and do.

Your cruise may visit islands with strong British, Hispanic, Gallic and Dutch cultures or influences – allowing you to visit plantation houses on Barbados, dine on French-Creole cuisine in Guadeloupe, or admire the Dutch colonial architecture of Curacao’s Willemstad.

Top Tip

“

Don’t miss the Millionaire’s Row Tour in Miami, we loved our sightseeing cruise tour around Biscayne Bay, the views of Miami skyline were incredible and we saw Fisher Island, Miami Beach and Millionaire’s Row - the homes of the rich and famous.

“

You’ll find the South American cruising season typically runs from November (their late spring) to early May (their mid-autumn).

As you head South, be prepared for varied climates that can change by the hour, the further South you travel the colder the temperature so make sure that you pack for all seasons.

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

“

To enjoy the best uninterrupted views of Sydney and it’s beautiful harbour, I recommend the Bridge Climb. You’ll reach the summit, 134m above sea level, be entertained with stories about the construction of the bridge and get a souvenir photo to capture your experience!

You may even be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of hump-backed whales frolicking in the pristine waters. You may even encounter a grizzly bear or two, so make sure you have your camera at the ready!

You will also visit a whole host of exciting city ports such as Vancouver and Halifax, or you can even opt to take a rail and sail voyage – combining a cruise with the world famous Rocky Mountaineer train through the stunning Rocky Mountains.

We also have some exciting holidays that incorporate stays in New York before cruising the New England coast in the Fall, when it is looking it’s best.

Top Tip

“

Ketchikan was one of my most-memorable ports of call on our Alaskan cruise. We took the Sea Plane to the Misty Fjords, an area of natural beauty created over centuries by the natural forces of water over the cliffs. Flying under the clouds and landing on the beautiful lakes was incredible, I thoroughly recommend it.

Bangkok is home to one of the most sacred Buddhist temples in Thailand, Wat Phra Kaew, or the Temple of the Emerald Buddha is located in the grounds of the Grand Palace and dates back to the 14th century. Set off early though, as it closes mid-afternoon and remember to cover arms, lower legs and toes.
