Great World Cruises
Santorini
When you visit Santorini on a Greek Isles cruise, you will discover why it is one of the hottest vacation destinations in Europe. Santorini is breathtakingly beautiful and vastly interesting. The volcanic island has a rich geological history, as well as an array of interesting archaeological sites. It has a pleasant climate, beautiful beaches, and plenty to see, do and learn. Visiting Greece on a Mediterranean Cruise is an amazing way to see this fascinating country. You will have the chance to see many different islands and cities, and you'll only have to unpack once. To make things even better, you will be on a floating resort where you will have varied entertainment, great food, and interesting people to meet.
Tortola British Vigin Islands
Tortola and the British Virgin Islands have a reputation among seasoned travelers as the creme de la creme of the Caribbean, but legions of cruise passengers calling at Tortola have responded with a collective shrug and a hearty, "What's all the hoopla about?" As a matter of fact, at one point, Tortola was scoring so low on passenger comment cards that many cruise lines dropped it as a port. The reason is that the assets of Tortola proper are limited in size and number, and the presence of even one large cruise ship in port puts enough visitors on the ground to overwhelm and overrun most of them. By way of example, passengers might take a shore excursion to Cane Garden Bay on Tortola's north shore, lauded by all the major travel journals as one of the top 10 beaches in the Caribbean, only to find a beach jammed nearly as elbow-to-elbow as Coney Island.
Maltese Islands
The islands of Malta, Gozo and Comino are located in the heart of the Mediterranean, about 90 kilometres south of Sicily and 290 kilometres north of the North African coastline. Unsurprisingly, you will find influences from both sides of the Mediterranean; no more so than in the languages spoken here. The two official languages are English and Maltese. English is widely spoken, as a result of the island's history as a British colony since the mid-1850s. And, there is still a strong link to the UK today (they even drive on the left and use UK style 3-pin plugs, so no need to bring an adapter with you!) It's, therefore, no surprise that British holidaymakers are made to feel extremely welcome here, and you'll find yourself returning again and again.
Mozambique
Beautiful white beaches, excellent diving reefs and first-class fishing characterize Bazaruto Archipelago. You'll find thick forests of coconut palms and cashew nut trees on the shores of Bazaruto Island. Large portions of the islands are protected as a national park and wildlife conservation area.
Rovinj, Croatia
Rovinj is the most beloved town in Istria, a top sight in Croatia, and one of its most romantic spots. With its pastel-coloured houses clustered together on steep winding streets and topped by a Venetian bell tower, you would think you were in Italy. Rovinj is still an active fishing port and you can take boats to the lovely offshore islands, Crveni Otok and Katarina. Scuba divers flock to Rovinj to dive the famous wreck,
Antarctica
Antarctica is not an easy place to get to, but increasing numbers of people visit Antarctica every year. Almost all go as a part of an organized expeditionary cruise, frequently guided by experts who are a mixture of seasoned seafarers, and ice or wildlife experts.
Pointe-a-Pitre Guadeloupe
Guadeloupe is the southernmost of the Leeward Islands, just north of the Windward Islands, where Martinique is found. The island of Dominica separates the two cousin islands, but they are often thought of as neighbors and grouped together anyway. In reality, Guadeloupe is made up of two islands that are joined by a very narrow channel of water called the Riviere Salee. The western island, Basse-Terre, is more mountainous than its eastern sidekick, Grande-Terre. In fact, Basse-Terre is home to an active volcano, La Soufriere, that is 4,800 feet high.
Victoria, British Columbia
Victoria, British Columbia, the capital of British Columbia, is situated on Vancouver Island and is one of the premier travel destinations in the World. Victoria sits on the southern tip of Vancouver lsland off the west coast of British Columbia, Canada.
Skagen Denmark
Breathtaking scenery at the Top of Denmark has been a source of inspiration for artists, poets and musicians, and the delight of tourists for generations. From wild to mild – desert-like dunes of Råbjerg Mile, lush forests, miles of sandy beaches glistening in intense sunlight, the pounding surf of 2 seas meeting. The Top of Denmark today is designated by the World Wide Fund for Nature as a rare, authentic natural beauty spot, attracting visitors from all over the world.
Newfoundland
Newfoundland and Labrador was built up from the ocean. When you enter a port like St. John's or L'Anse aux Meadows or Battle Harbour or St. Pierre you are seeing the same landscape that explorers, traders, and travellers viewed hundreds or thousands of years ago. The staff at Wildland Tours and Adventure Newfoundland has had the wonderful opportunity to work with expedition cruise ships as they have explored the Newfoundland and Labrador coast over the past decade. We have seen whales, polar bears, tropical sunfish, icebergs, dolphins, seals, and millions of seabirds while exploring the coast on expedition ships. At the same time, we have been privileged to share the unique cuisine and culture of our home with visiting passengers and crews.
Rockland, Maine
On an enclosed bay south of Camden on Coastal Route 1, Rockland is a central waypoint for travelers and locals alike. Landing ports and ferries to and from Northhaven and Vinalhaven Islands are available. Rockland is surrounded by bays, peninsulas, rivers, lakes, and inlets. Rockland, besides being a popular crossroads, exhibits also tremendous natural beauty.
Picton, New Zealand
Picton is a picturesque waterfront town in the Marlborough region. It is also Marlborough's main commercial port and access to Queen Charlotte Sound.
