A world cruise is the ultimate ocean-going adventure, ticking off amazing bucket-list experiences every day as you circumnavigate the globe. A typical world cruise starts at Southampton and heads west across the Atlantic to America and the Caribbean before traversing the Panama Canal and on to South America and Australia. From here you’ll head north and sail down the Far East coast of Asia and around India before heading up to the Suez Canal and into the Mediteranean.

What to Expect

World Cruises departing from the UK generally start from Southampton and cruise westbound over to the US or the Caribbean before sailing through the Pacific, via Hawaii, to Australia and New Zealand.

From here you then normally continue around Asia before moving on to India, around the Andaman & Nicobar Islands, and then either through the Suez Canal and on to cruise the Mediterranean or around Africa before journeying up the South and North Atlantic coasts. Some, meanwhile, may sail eastbound but still take in most of the above cruise destinations.

You can book a full world cruise holiday, typically ranging from 80 to 110 days depending on the itinerary, or just book one or two sectors. If you choose these, you simply fly out and meet up with your desired ship during the world cruise.If you'd like to spend longer in your destination of choice you can opt for a cruise and stay holiday.
