If you’re not keen on flying – or just want to start your holiday as soon as possible – take a look at these incredible sailings from the UK.
CELEBRITY CRUISES
Sail across the Arctic Circle in summer
There’s a thrill in crossing the imaginary line of the Arctic Circle along Norway’s fjord-indented coastline. Entering a world of stark and wild beauty, it’s impossible not to be wowed by the landscape and nature as jagged peaks stretch for miles and Arctic terns and puffins can be spotted along the clifftops. Sail past rocky islets and skerries that are remnants of the last Ice Age, some home to fishing huts but many uninhabited. From onboard a sailing with Celebrity Cruises®, it’s impossible not to be wowed by it all.
FRED. OLSEN
Stargaze with astronomers in Portugal
It’s time for the evening’s entertainment. But instead of heading for the theatre, you walk out on deck. Thousands of stars blaze across the night sky. In the centre, you spot the Milky Way, its hazy band of white light like a soft brushstroke above. You’re reminded of the Portuguese explorers who used these same constellations to navigate their ships. It’s a fitting thought as you sail to Lisbon on a Fred. Olsen cruise.
P&O CRUISES
Enjoy a natural spa in a dormant volcano
You gaze over the rocky, volcanic landscape and see steam billowing skywards and mud bubbling and spurting in the surrounding hot springs. Sulphur Springs in Saint Lucia is the world’s only drive-in volcano, and you can enjoy a natural spa session at these specially created baths. Just slide into the mud, smoothing it up your arms and across your shoulders, wallowing in the water like a hippo to make the most of its detoxifying properties. See it for yourself during a Caribbean cruise with P&O Cruises.
"We booked our first family cruise with our Travel Counsellor, who recommended the ship after experiencing it themselves and gave us everything we needed to know to ensure the kids were fully entertained. The ease of setting sail from the UK, knowing we didn't have any luggage restrictions and could avoid the airports was pure bliss."

AMBASSADOR
Relax on pink-sand beaches in Bermuda
You choose a sunbed and lie back, feeling the sunlight on your face as the sound of the ocean echoes in the background. The semi-circle of soft baby-pink sand is lapped by dazzling turquoise waters that scarcely look real. Limestone rocks on either side of the beach keep the surf calm enough for swimming, while the green vegetation inland adds a touch of wilderness. The second stop on your Ambassador cruise, this pinch-me destination has already set the bar sky-high.
SAGA
Soar above a rainforest in Costa Rica
The aerial tram ascends, revealing a breathtaking view of the Veragua Rainforest. As you rise into the tropical canopy, the shadowy peaks of the Talamanca Mountains come into view, cloaked in rainforest and extending across Costa Rica to the Panama border. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks to its incredible beauty and rich biodiversity; features you noticed the moment you hopped off the ship at Puerto Limón.
DISNEY CRUISE LINE
Live the magic of Disney, at sea
Set sail from the UK, experiencing the magic of a summer school holiday at sea with Mickey and friends! Enjoy a 3, 4, or 5-night cruise, conveniently departing from Southampton this August aboard the Disney Dream. Immerse yourself in Disney's captivating world on board, where you can be part of a real-life fairy tale. Enjoy the Beauty and the Beast musical, ride the AquaDuck water coaster, and indulge in a family meal with Crush and friends. Alternatively, while the little ones have fun at Disney's Oceaneer Club, parents can relax in the Quiet Cove Pool.
