World Navigator Highlights
After completing its second Antarctica season on 31MAR 2023, World Navigator charts a course eastward from Ushuaia, Argentina, to Cape Town, South Africa, via the South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands and the remote outposts of Ascension and Tristan da Cunha Islands in the South Atlantic. The ship then heads north along Africa’s west coast to the Canary Islands and Morocco before crossing the Strait of Gibraltar into the Alboran and Mediterranean Seas. The 10MAY voyage includes two full days in Casablanca, Morocco, to provide guests additional time to tour more-inland Marrakesh.
World Navigator also delivers sailings in Mediterranean destinations throughout Spain, France and Italy. An eight-night Grand Prix voyage, departing 21MAY, features two nights in Monaco to catch the race and join in the celebrations. In the heart of the season, travellers can also choose luxury adventures to see the cultures of the Adriatic, Greek Isles, and Turkey. World Navigator then retraces its course westward in early autumn through the Mediterranean and continues onward to Brazil and Argentina to arrive at Ushuaia on 09NOV.
World Traveller Highlights
The newly launched World Traveller heads north from Ushuaia on 26MAR to bring guests to explore the Chilean and Peruvian coasts. Travellers can also delve into the ecological treasures of Panama, Costa Rica and Nicaragua on a 12-night itinerary departing April 28. Offering another chance to cross off a bucket-list experience, World Traveller will transit the Panama Canal and cruise the Southern Caribbean before crossing the Atlantic to the Canary Islands.
From the Canary Islands, World Traveller features two 10-night voyages that combine the archipelago with Morocco. Both departures include overnight calls in Casablanca, but the 06JUN voyage includes a call at Safi to access Marrakesh, while the 16JUN voyage includes calls at Cadiz, Spain, and Portimao, Portugal. The ship then continues north to the British Isles, Ireland, Norwegian Fjords and Greenland for JUL.
World Traveller crosses the north 66th parallel in AUG to offer multiple opportunities to see the Northern Lights, including three Arctic expeditions in Svalbard. Guests can marvel at the archipelago’s glaciers, fjords and mountains, and catch sightings of a wide range of wildlife, including birds, whales, polar bears, reindeer, walrus and the elusive arctic fox. Guests can also choose the subsequent Iceland circumnavigation voyage to witness the contrast of "land of fire and ice." The ship then charts its course southbound via the British Isles, Ireland, France and Spain to conclude its season on 16OCT at Lisbon.
