Why book a World Cruise?

Booking a world cruise is a unique and extraordinary way to explore numerous destinations across the globe in one single trip.

World cruises are bound to keep you busy from when you step on the ship to when you walk off. From just one trip, you can disembark in the likes of Sydney, Bali, Abu Dhabi, Turkey and Colombo, providing you with some of the most fascinating destinations. If you are eager to board a world cruise ship, below are several gripping reasons why this can be an incredible experience:

The Ultimate Itinerary

No matter where you go, World Cruises’ itineraries are astonishingly varied. Silversea 2024 Far East-West Pacific Circle, as well as their Grand South America 2024 voyage that cruises to Asia, the Mediterranean, Australia and America. The majority offer a range of mid-voyage land tours to prominent locations such as the Taj Mahal, Valley of the Kings or even Terracotta Warriors at Xi’an.

There are several cruise lines that offer world cruises from the UK, providing cruisers with the chance to embark on an extended journey exploring a vast range of destinations around the world. Cunard, P&O Cruises and Fred Olsen are some of the cruise lines that offer world cruises from Southampton, UK.

World Cruise Lines

The majority of award-winning cruise lines offer some form of around-the-world cruise. From famous operators like Cunard to agents of small-ship luxury such as Seabourn and Regent Seven Seas, you’ll have the choice to choose which line best suits you.

Here is a selection of our favourite lines:

• Crystal Cruises
• Cunard
• Holland America Cruise Line
• MSC Cruises
• Oceania Cruises
• P&O Cruises
• Regent Seven Seas Cruises
• Royal Caribbean International
• Silversea

Additionally, there are several cruise lines which offer specialist world cruises. For example, Silversea has previously operated an extended expedition itinerary designed to explore an array of remote regions in one extended voyage. Although rare, these itineraries provide an alternative way to the traditional experience but are usually popular, so booking earlier rather than later is highly recommended.

Explore different cultures

Some cruisers sometimes want to devote their holidays to just one location, but taking advantage of world cruises means you can experience an array of cultures throughout. For example, go salsa dancing in Puerto Rico or explore Portugal’s abundant street art; world cruises are full of exciting cultural destinations, allowing you to experience various locations in one enchanted holiday.

Experience new exquisite tastes

For the eager foodies on board, you are in for a treat. By visiting 20+ destinations in just one trip, you can experience a mountain of mouth-watering cuisines. Enjoy tasty ramen in Japan, luscious Seafood in French Polynesia, or authentic homemade Jollof Rice in Africa. Take the opportunity to spend your overnight stay going for a stroll to explore the food markets, tasting exquisite ingredients each different place has to offer. You could take your time and visit local restaurants, broadening your pallet by taking recommendations from chefs or fellow diners.

Exceptional value for money

A world cruise is costly, but it can be highly worthwhile. Hidden beneath the considerable upfront charges are additional inclusions beyond what the cruise line typically provides, even with all-inclusive cruise lines. This could be from phone packages, door-to-door luggage services or even special shore excursions and many more.
