What We Love
Mixing It Up: You'll get a little of everything on most world cruises — from tropical beaches to big-city buzz to exotic ports of call.
The Ship Becomes Your Home: Nary a dish to wash, a suitcase to unpack, or an airport to navigate. The whole world is at the end of your gangplank.
Best Known For
Long Voyages: A typical World Cruise lasts 100 days or more.
An Older Crowd: Let's face it, few folks below retirement age can spare the time or money to do a cruise like this.
Best Ports
Singapore: Shop 'til you drop, visit the boggling Gardens by the Bay, sample amazing hawker food, and enjoy the blend of Malay, Chinese, and Indian cultures — with a dash of British colonial architecture.
Cape Town, South Africa: Explore Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned, sip the local wines, and take a cable car to the top of Table Mountain for great views.
Sydney, Australia: Visit koalas in the outstanding zoo, tour the iconic opera house, slurp oysters on the Circular Quay, stroll the botanic gardens, or catch a wave at Bondi Beach.
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: Visit Sugarloaf Mountain for stunning views, tour the splendid Municipal Theater or revered Maracanã soccer stadium, groove to Brazilian jazz, and eat at a churrascaria, where a parade of sizzling meats arrives at your table.
