Our pick of the 5 best cruise destinations

The Caribbean

The most popular cruise destination in the world, the Caribbean sees cruise ships operating all year round in the region. A Caribbean cruise offers great value for money as you can visit multiple islands without having to worry about air tickets, visas, booking different hotels and paying through your nose for island transport.

Alaska

If breathtaking scenery, wildlife and some spectacular glaciers are what you wish to see, consider Alaska – it is truly one of the best places to go on a cruise. An Alaskan cruise is an introduction to the biggest state in the United States.

The Mediterranean

Southern Europe is the place for some sun and sand and a cruise in the Mediterranean Sea is one of the best ways to enjoy this region. The natural beauty of the area will leave you breathless and it is well worth soaking in the diverse cultures of the countries here.

Hawaii

Say ‘aloha’ to Hawaii by taking a cruise around this archipelago of eight main islands. Formed due to the volcanic activity of an undersea mountain range, Hawaii is all about wild natural beauty. Most cruises cover the islands of Maui, Oahu, Kauai, Molokai, Lanai, Niihau and Kahoolawe.

Australia & New Zealand

Australia and New Zealand are also amongst the best places to go on a cruise. Apart from Sydney’s iconic landmarks, these cruises call at many ports such as Noumea (New Caledonia), Port Vila (Vanuatu), Port Denarau (Fiji) and others. Australia-specific cruises cover Queensland, Newcastle, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and sometimes Tasmania.
