Southampton, UK

The vibrant port city of Southampton has always had a rich history in seafaring and is still a popular embarkation port for cruises today.

Gran Canaria, Spain

The tranquil harbour, verdant palm groves and excellent climate of Gran Canaria's lively capital Las Palmas delighted Christopher Columbus when he discovered it on his famous voyage of 1492.

Bridgetown, Barbados

You may feel that you could be on the Cornish coast but the moment you hear the waves of gospel singing emanating from a tiny local church you'll realise you could not be anywhere else but Barbados.

Oranjestad, Aruba

Soft beaches, world class shopping, glitzy casinos, stunning sea views, desert scenes scattered with boulders and exotic cacti are yours to enjoy when you visit Aruba, jewel of the 'deep' Caribbean. 

Panama Canal (full transit)

Sailing through the Panama Canal is a remarkable experience and a moving one when you know the mixture of tragedy and triumph, French farce and financial meltdown which went into its building.

Manzanillo, Mexico

Manzanillo hugs the Pacific west coast of Mexico. On arriving in port forested hillsides fringe sandy beaches, and birdsong fills the air. Manzanillo is best known for its beaches.

San Diego, United States

San Francisco, United States

Cruising under the Golden Gate Bridge into San Francisco is one of the world's greatest travel experiences for it acts as gateway to a fascinating city set across dozens ofhills overlooking the bay.

Honolulu, United States

If you associate Hawaii with flower garlands, grass-skirted hula dancers, white beaches and spectacular volcanic scenery, a call at the capital Honolulu, will more than live up to your expectations.

Nawiliwili (Hawaii) , United States

Cross International Date Line

The International Date Line (IDL) is an imaginary line on the surface of the Earth, established by the International Meridian Conference of 1884, that runs from the north to the south pole and demarcates one calendar day from the next. It passes through the middle of the Pacific Ocean, roughly following the 180° longitude but it deviates to pass around some territories and island groups. The IDL is on the opposite side of the Earth to the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian is used to define Universal Time and is the meridian from which all other time zones are calculated. Time zones to the east of the Prime Meridian are in advance of UTC (up to UTC+14); time zones to the west are behind UTC (to UTC-12).The IDL and the moving point of midnight separate the two calendar days that are current somewhere on Earth. A traveller crossing the IDL eastbound subtracts one day, or 24 hours, so that the calendar date to the west of the line is repeated after the following midnight. Crossing the IDL westbound results in 24 hours being added, advancing the calendar date by one day. The IDL is necessary to have a fixed, albeit arbitrary, boundary on the globe where the calendar date advances in the westbound direction.

Apia , Samoan Islands

Step straight into a film set for 'South Pacific' when you arrive in the Samoan capital, Apia - it's a magical first impression. 

Suva, Fiji

Suva is a beautiful harbour city built on a hilly peninsula which stretches out into the sea. Fiji’s capital city is home to the country’s largest metropolitan area, giving you a whole range of things to see and do during your visit. 

Auckland, New Zealand

New Zealand's biggest city and major cruise port, Auckland, sits between the Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea, which is how it came to host the America's Cup twice - in 1999 and 2002.

Tauranga, New Zealand

Tauranga is a Maori name, translated as resting place for canoes. Tauranga lies on a narrow peninsula, surrounded by water within the Bay of Plenty, an area with beautiful harbours and beaches.

Wellington, New Zealand

Wellington, New Zealand’s centre of government and the world’s southernmost city, is one that you’ll never forget once you’ve visited. 

Sydney, Australia

Sydney always lives up to great expectations. When you are on one of our Sydney cruises, the first glimpse of the Harbour Bridge and Opera House will stay in your memory forever. 

Airlie Beach , Australia

Fabulous white sand beaches, tropical forests, amazing swimming and snorkelling, the Whitsunday Islands and nearby Barrier Reef are the perfect holiday islands.

Cairns, Australia

Visit Cairns for warm Australian sunshine and a laidback city with so much going for it.  This city in northern Australia is the ideal stepping-off point for tropical temptations of almost every kind.

Rabaul, Papua New Guinea

The inside of a large caldera is an unusual place to house a town, but this is exactly where you will find Rabaul.

Pusan, Korea

Nagasaki, Japan

On Nagasaki cruises you can look forward to rich cosmopolitan atmosphere and the beautiful seaside scenery.

Kagoshima, Japan

You'd be forgiven for thinking of Japan as a bustling blend of high-tech living, ancient monuments, healthy seafood and world-class technology giants. 

Tokyo, Japan

Facing Tokyo Bay, Yokohama has one of the finest harbours in the world. Only a little over 100 years ago, Yokohama was an insignificant village of one hundred farming-fishing families. Since then it has survived several calamities to become a prosperous city of over three million people and Japan's major commercial gateway to the world. It's also the gateway to Japan's frenetic, futuristic and fast capital - Tokyo.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong

Hong Kong, a former British Crown Colony may boast some 236 islands but most of its five million inhabitants are condensed on just one island, Hong Kong and one city, Kowloon on the facing peninsula.

Manila, Philippines

Truly the city that never sleeps, the Philippine capital and cruise port of Manila promises a real buzz of an experience from the moment you see (and hear!) the first multi-coloured jeepney whiz by. 

Nha Trang, Vietnam

Laem Chabang, Thailand

Located on Thailand’s east coast, this tranquil region of fruit orchards, gem mines and oyster and orchid farms, is now also a great place for swimming, snorkeling and experiencing traditional Thai village life.

Singapore, Singapore

Cruises to Singapore have much to offer. The city's glorious parks have earned it a reputation as the Garden City of the Far East but you will also be cruising into one of the world's busiest ports. 

Port Kelang , Malaysia

Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur may have got its name - meaning 'muddy confluence' - from the two rivers which meet in its centre, but cruise ships must dock at the deepwater cruise port Kelang, which is 90 minutes drive away.&nbsp;

Colombo, Sri Lanka

For international shopping and restaurants, head for the Fort District in the north of the city and then catch some local colour in the Pettah Bazaar District. 

Male, Maldives

Port Louis, Mauritius

Reunion, Reunion

Réunion is renowned for its dazzling landscapes, fascinating wildlife and stunning beaches. With the chance to both relax and explore, this island is perfect for those who like to immerse themselves in natural wonders. From the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Réunion Island National Park that houses stoic volcanoes and sweeping views of the island from over 2,000 metres high to the rich history of Réunion’s capital, Saint-Denis, this island is a treasure trove of wonder.
