100+ nights

Multitude of ports

Numerous countries

Countless memories

A sneak peek into some of the amazing destinations we visit...

Sydney

One of the world's great cities and harbours, Sydney always lives up to great expectations. The first glimpse of the Harbour Bridge and Opera House will stay in your memory forever. From the waterside restaurants fringing the historic Rocks district, the Sydney cruise tour takes you around Sydney Cove past the Circular Quay ferry terminal to that remarkable Opera House and the beautiful Royal Botanic Gardens.

Cape Town

You will see straightaway why it is called the 'Garden City' of South Africa, as there is so much greenery in the many parks and botanical gardens mixed in among some well-preserved historical buildings. Imaginatively landscaped and linked by a series of bridges, the V&A has an array of classy shops, quirky boutiques and handicraft stores, as well as tasty restaurants with superb ocean views.

Honolulu

With its alfresco, whitewashed shopping malls, elegant hotels and magnificent Waikiki Bay, this city is hedonism personified. You can spend a perfect day ashore browsing the designer boutiques and enjoying a lazy lunch in a waterfront hotel garden before retiring to the soft sands and warm waves that surround the island.

San Francisco

The famous Fisherman's Wharf harbourfront restaurant and multi-coloured boats complex, where seals happily sunbathe on its wooden decking, faces out towards the former island prison of Alcatraz which is now a major tourist attraction just like the city's colourful Chinatown district and upmarket shopping centre in Union Square.

Singapore

The city's glorious parks have earned it a reputation as the Garden City of the Far East but you will also be cruising into one of the world's busiest ports. Once ashore, Singapore cruise guests can enjoy a stroll through the famous Tiger Balm Gardens with its statues of characters from Chinese legend peeping out from the trees.

Panama Canal

Everyone should sail through the Panama Canal at least once. It is a remarkable experience and a moving one when you know the mixture of tragedy and triumph, French farce and financial meltdown which went into its building. The French spent 20 fruitless years trying to build a canal - Suez-style - straight through the land.


"There were so many amazing places to see. A world cruise was a great place to start, so if you’re thinking of doing one, just go for it!"
