World Cruise cruises

World Cruise - typical itinerary

Cruise from Southampton, UK, and sail west across the Atlantic to New York, sometimes stopping off at the Azores or Bermuda on the way.

Sailing down the east coast of the US taking in New York, Boston and Miami before island hopping through the Caribbean and on to the Panama Canal.

Once in the Pacific you’ll typically head north taking in Mexico, San Diego and Los Angeles before heading out towards Hawaii.

From here you could either head north to Japan and Korea or south to the Pacific Islands and Australia and New Zealand before taking in China, Vietnam and Thailand among others.

You’ll then cross the Indian Ocean, typically stopping off at the Seychelles and Maldives, before either taking the route into the Mediterranean via the Suez Canal or the long way round the Horn of Africa.

After taking in the Mediterranean you’ll head back to the UK with a suitcase full of keepsakes, a camera full of pics and a head full of amazing memories.

Alternatively, some ships sail eastbound, taking the same general route but in reverse.
