Gems of the Caribbean Sea (42 nights)
A typical Gems of the Caribbean Sea itinerary sails from a UK port, calling at multiple Caribbean islands including Barbados, St Lucia, Antigua, Martinique, Dominica, and St Kitts. Cruising is ideal here because the islands are close enough to explore several unique cultures, lush landscapes, and pristine beaches without the hassle of flights or transfers. Each port offers highlights like rainforest hikes, sugarcane plantations, rum distilleries, colourful markets, and calm turquoise waters, while the ship provides comfortable luxury and entertainment during longer sea days.
Best time to visit: December to April is the Caribbean’s dry season, offering sunny skies, calm seas, and warm temperatures — perfect for beach days, snorkeling, and island exploration.
British Isles Discovery (11 nights)
This itinerary typically departs from Tilbury or another UK port, calling at destinations such as Dublin, Belfast, Edinburgh, the Scottish Highlands, and the Isles of Scilly. Cruising is ideal because it allows you to visit multiple historic and scenic destinations without packing and unpacking, offering guided excursions to castles, museums, and coastal villages. Travelling by ship also provides a unique perspective of rugged coastlines, lighthouses, and serene waterways that are difficult to experience by land alone.
Best time to visit: May to September is ideal, with longer daylight hours, milder weather, and calmer seas — perfect for sightseeing, coastal walks, and exploring historic towns.
Norway’s Land of the Northern Lights (16 nights)
A typical Norway Northern Lights itinerary sails from the UK or northern European ports, calling at Norwegian destinations including Tromsø, Lofoten Islands, Bergen, and the Arctic Circle. Cruising is ideal here because the ship can reach remote fjords, picturesque fishing villages, and dramatic Arctic landscapes inaccessible by road, offering a front-row seat to the Northern Lights and midnight sun. Passengers enjoy scenic cruising, wildlife spotting, and excursions to ice fjords, snow-capped peaks, and charming towns.
Best time to visit: Late September to March is optimal for Northern Lights sightings, while summer (June–August) offers midnight sun, mild temperatures, and fjord exploration opportunities.
