Imagine setting sail on a journey that takes you around the world, allowing you to explore diverse cultures, breathtaking landscapes, and historic sites in multiple countries. This dream can become a reality through a World Cruise, however, not everyone has the luxury of taking several months off from their busy lives. That's where World Cruise Segments come in.
What Are World Cruise Segments?
A World Cruise Segment is essentially a portion of a world cruise itinerary, allowing you to join the voyage for a specific segment of time, typically ranging from a few weeks to a couple of months. Segments provide you with the opportunity to experience the highlights of a global voyage without committing to the full duration. You can select a segment that aligns with your interests, schedule, and budget, making it an attractive option for those with limited time or who would like to focus on a specific region of the world.
Why Choose World Cruise Segments?
Flexibility: One of the primary advantages of opting for a World Cruise Segment is the flexibility it offers. You can choose the segment that appeals to you the most, whether it's exploring the Mediterranean, cruising through the South Pacific, or venturing into the Amazon. This flexibility ensures that your journey is tailored to your preferences.
Reduce Overseas Flights: If you would like to explore Europe, Asia, South America, Africa or Australia, selecting the first segment of a World Cruise, which typically departs from the United States, you would only need an overseas flight to get home. Another option is to select the last segment of a World Cruise that finishes in the United States. You would then fly to the embarkation city and, at the end of your journey, you would disembark in the U.S.
Variety of Destinations: World Cruise Segments allow you to explore multiple destinations in a single trip. You can experience the rich history of European cities, soak up the sun on tropical islands, or witness the natural wonders of remote regions, all in one journey.
Cultural Immersion: Segments provide ample opportunities to immerse yourself in local cultures, cuisines, and traditions. Whether you're exploring ancient temples in Asia or savoring delicacies in Greece, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the world's diversity.
Comfort and Convenience: Cruising offers a level of comfort and convenience that's hard to match. You'll unpack just once, enjoy excellent onboard amenities, and have a dedicated crew catering to your needs throughout the journey.
