Three Cruises of a Lifetime

So you think you have “been there and done that” as far as cruising is concerned? Think again! Let me share three cruises of a lifetime with you.

1. Arctic Circle Cruise. Climb aboard Hurtigruten’s North Cape Express Cruise for a 14-day adventure. The cruise line guarantees passengers will experience the Aurora Borealis at least once, but probably more. This Norweigan adventure begins in Tomiso, which is the gateway to the Arctic. This once-in-a-lifetime experience is offered December 2024 – May 2025. Destinations include picturesque islands, scenic coastal villages, remote lighthouses, ancient fishing towns, Oslo and more. While on board you will be treated like a VIP and while out sightseeing you will be provided all the gear you need to stay warm and comfortable. Click here to learn more!
2. Magical Cruise aboard Princess Cruise Line’s Sun Princess. Here you will be shown into a hidden space where spectacular magic is performed by master magicians. Created exclusively in partnership with Magic Castle of Hollywood, California, the venue Spellbound treats guests to special shows performed by magicians and illusionists. The hidden theater is part of a special venue designed to resemble the Victorian house (complete with a grand fireplace) used by Magic Castle in Hollywood. Guests may wander and explore several rooms filled with magic items and instruments. Specialty cocktails and a unique dinner are served during this fun-filled experience. Sun Princess Cruises

3. One of the world’s last wild frontiers is Greenland. And with Viking’s new cruise itineraries, there is a great new way to explore it. Book your flight with Icelandair or Air Greenland. Cruises range from 13 – 27 days around Greenland and Canada. For the super adventurous, Hurtigruten offers an 87-day repositioning cruise for Antarctica expeditions. Highlights include Toronto, transiting the Panama Canal, sailing the west coast of South America before reaching Antarctica. After four days exploring the White Continent, the ship ends in Ushuaia, Argentina (one of my favorite places). Or choose from nine different Greenland itineraries offered by Hurtigruten, including ‘Mythical Lands of the North.’ Explore Greenland, Iceland, Norway & Beyond!

Honorable Mention: Oceania Riveria offers a 12-day voyage that visits China, South Korea, and Japan or take their 59-day cruise which includes stops in South Africa, Maldives, and Madagascar.
