What Our Clients Say

FAQ

What is a World Cruise?

A World Cruise offers passengers an easy way to travel the globe, visiting multiple countries and continents while unpacking only once.

How long is a World Cruise?

World cruises can last between 90 and 150 days, but can be longer, and typically visit at least three continents. On average, they last between three and five months. 

Can I travel in only a segment of a World Cruise?

Yes, many cruise lines offer segmented itineraries separately, allowing you to embark for days or weeks at a time without taking on the whole length of the World Cruise. 

Are World Cruises worth it?

World Cruises are a bucket list experience. Suppose you have ever dreamed of seeing the world, discovering different destinations, and experiencing a truly multicultural journey. In that case, a World Cruise is your most comfortable option. 

Instead of planning out a multitude of itineraries, choosing between the various destinations, and arranging every detail an around-the-globe trip pertains, a World Cruise is an opportunity to experience it all in a way that is already planned out for you. 

Destination experts are behind the scenes mapping out the ultimate world cruise itinerary, while cruise lines go to great lengths to anticipate every guest’s needs. On board a World Cruise you find every possible comfort, ensuring an all-encompassing experience while you only unpack once.

When should I book a World Cruise?

Most luxury cruise lines offer only one world cruise a year, and the best suites always go fast. Add to this the fact you will be leaving home for months at a time, and that requires some extra planning on your part. As expert travel advisors, we recommend booking as far in advance as possible since world cruise itineraries can be released up to two years ahead of their departure date.

What should I pack for a World Cruise?

Our travel advisors have put together the ultimate guide to packing for a World Cruise, available to access here

Are there any health or safety tips we should be aware of?

Prior to booking, it is recommended to consult all applicable U.S. Centers for Disease Control travel advisories related to cruise travel. Additionally, please adhere to current health and safety guidelines during your trip.

What if I have further questions or need additional assistance?

Our Sales and concierge team are available to assist you with any further questions or provide additional assistance. Feel free to reach out to us for more information or help.

Can I make changes to my booking after it has been confirmed?

Booking changes may be possible but are subject to availability and may incur additional fees. Please contact us as soon as possible if you need to make changes to your booking.

What kind of dining experience can I expect?

Your dining preference can be requested at the time of deposit, although this request is not guaranteed. Almost all meals, including 24-hour room service, are included in the price of your luxury cruise, depending on the ship.

Can I get a special diet?

Most ships can accommodate salt-free, low-carbohydrate, Kosher, or other diet preferences. However, this request must be made in advance.

How do I know what port stops we will make?

Our travel planning experts will help you select the luxury cruise itinerary that meets your needs and helps you make the most of your desired travel experience and needs.

Do I need to plan shore excursions ahead of time?

Make sure to arrange for shore excursions and specialty restaurants among other activities that can be planned in advance. Part of what makes booking a luxury cruise worth it is the attention to detail and service you will experience when it comes to your time both on board the ship and in port. Our Cruise and Vacation Specialist can help you decide how to best spend your time on land and make any arrangements you need.

What other precautions or plans do I need to consider?

Check with your Cruise and Vacation Specialist if you need visas for the ports you will be visiting during this trip. Find out whether the countries you will visit have any vaccination requirements.
