World Cruises

Take a Cruise Around the World

For most people, the idea of spanning the globe on an around-the-world tour is more fairytale than reality. Now, the idea takes hold as several cruise ship companies are offering the chance to join them in exclusive continent-hopping voyages.

For years, cruise ships have been renown as the travel option, thanks to their convenient planning, fun-filled itineraries and multiple destinations. As the cruise ship industry grows with higher demand, many more options are quickly becoming available. Ranging from 105 - 126 days, world cruises offer the chance to visit a wide range of locations and glimpse into each culture — while returning to your comfy cruise cabin at day's end.

"World voyages are all about cultural exploration, new adventures, and having time to get to know your fellow traveler," said David Morris, Silversea Cruises sales senior vice president. According to Morris, Silversea Cruises helps travelers get to secluded places that many ships can't visit on a shorter, more limited schedule.

With plenty of overnight stays at popular ports, the option is all yours: explore the cities on foot or view the spectacular sights from aboard. Either way, prepare yourself for a once in a lifetime trip that is sure to excite the explorer in anyone.

Silversea World Cruise
Join the Silversea cruise and voyage for 126 unforgettable days aboard Silver Shadow on her first World Cruise to completely circle the globe. Follow the trade winds from the island jewels of the Caribbean to the Incan treasures of Peru and across the wide Pacific to the fabled South Seas, where the ocean is the colour of a cloudless sky. Journey from Down Under to the enchantments of the Far East, India and the spice ports of Arabia. Touch the tapestry of ancient Egypt and the must-see Mediterranean. Finish your tour by making the classic Grand Crossing to New York City.

Seven Seas World Cruise
Seven Seas Voyager's 2007 111-night World Cruise will entice guests to experience all of the romance and mystique of a global itinerary while exploring 45 destinations in 26 countries on five continents in six-star luxury. On the most extensive World Cruise ever offered by Regent Seven Seas, the acclaimed 700-guest all-balcony suite vessel will begin her exploration by steaming southeast from Ft. Lauderdale for South America.

Holland America's Grand World Voyage
With world cruises offered since 1958, Holland America's exclusive "Circle of The Sun" Grand World Voyage continues to be an annual event. Holland America Line's 2006 Grand World Voyage covers 36 destinations, 22 countries, six continents - South America, Antarctica, Africa, India, Egypt, Libya and the Mediterranean - and 30,000 nautical miles. The voyage crosses the equator four times and includes nine maiden ports of call. Mother Nature provides an added thrill when the 793-passenger ms Prinsendam arrives off the coast of Turkey on March 29, 2006 — an ideal place and time to view a total solar eclipse.

Crystal's Serenity World Cruise
There's more to a World Cruise than spectacular destinations, impeccable service, fine dining and the slow unfolding of days. Crystal's World Cruise guest lecturers and celebrities always include the brightest names - renowned entertainers, distinguished journalists and celebrated authors. You'll meet and hear noted historians and experts on art and culture, on board to offer insights about many of the highlight destinations.
