Our Tenerife cruises bring you close to one of the world’s most dramatic and varied landscapes, ranging from verdant valleys and lush plantations to glorious beaches, vast pinewoods and the volcanic 'moonscape’ of Mount Teide National Park.

Look past the futuristic skyscrapers, luxurious hotels and endless shopping malls and you’ll see that the cultures of an older society still remain.

Alta rightly claims the title of ‘The town of the Northern Lights’. The world’s first Northern Lights observatory was built here back in 1899. Look forward to snow mobile safaris, dog sledding and a warm and friendly welcome.

Watching the surf crash down on this richly diverse island and you may feel you could be on the Cornish coast. The moment you hear the waves of gospel singing from a tiny local church you realise you could not be anywhere else but Barbados.

The Acropolis will always be the top attraction in Athens. With its 2,500-year-old Parthenon, temple to Poseidon and Athena, Odeon of Herodes Atticus and Theatre of Dionysus, it stands out as an oasis of calm in the Greek capital.

Barcelona provides a vivid mix of ancient and modern. Some of the best food in Spain can be found in the city – paella is a speciality – and the restaurant Cal Pep was recently named as one of the top 50 places to eat in the world.

You’ve not seen Venice until you’ve floated through the heart of this enchanted city on a gondola, along the beautiful waterways and under stone bridges. For all-out romance, how about a sunset trip with a serenade?

Walk the defensive walls of the immaculately preserved Medieval Old Town and see many Game Of Thrones filming locations. Ride the cable car up Mount Srd for breathtaking views across the city and out to sea, or hit the nearby golden beaches.

Gain an extended evening in two iconic destinations. New York yields a ‘pinch yourself’ moment as its famous skyline shimmers into view, while arriving at the spectacular Harbour, scene of the Tea Party, starts your Boston visit in style.
