Long cruise holidays from £66pp/night

Our longer holidays extend from a few weeks to a few months away, so you can really unwind and get under the skin of whichever region you want to discover. All departing from Southampton.

Six reasons to choose a long cruise holiday

Time to explore beyond the tourist trail

A long duration cruise holiday means additional time for you to discover authentic charm. Go beyond the tourist trail and dive deeper into local cultures.

Tick off your bucket-list destinations

Sometimes you might need a little – or a lot – more time to experience everything on your wish list. Visit multiple dream destinations all in one cruise holiday, one stop at a time.

More time to relax

Longer cruise holidays often include more sea days to unwind. During relaxing days at sea, spoil yourself with a spa treatment or simply laze by the pool with a cocktail in hand.

Fly or sail with ease

You can maximise your time in beautiful places by flying straight to the heart of them or get your holiday started sooner and sail from Southampton.

Visit incredible landmarks

Maybe you picture yourself gazing up at New York’s Statue of Liberty, or perhaps you'll take an evening cruise on Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour and be dazzled by the neon skyline.

Enjoy all your ship has to offer

A longer cruise holiday means incredible value for money, with so much included in the price. There's a host of entertainment to dive in to, including cinema screenings, live music and comedy, spectacular stage shows, casino gaming, quizzes, sports, and so much more.
